What is your favorite character from a book of any genre?
One that comes to mind right now is Atticus Finch
of To Kill A Mockingbird.

mine would be .

he shows up in almost everything

Seriously, I loved Will Graham from Red Dragon - i love the tragic quality and hte fact that he doesn't show up in any of hte later books. . . I was sort of pissed that he doesn't show up at all in Hannibal (which makes no freaking sense) - but in the end given that Harris is such a bloated writer these days - i'm glad Graham has remained unscatehd

Tyrion Lannister (George R.R. Martin's A Song of Ice and Fire series)

Mat Cauthon (Robert Jordan's Wheel of Time)

The Misfit (from Flannery O'Connor's "A Good Man is Hard to Find")

Do comics count too? If so, I'll add Morpheus, Death, and Lucifer from the Sandman.

Yes, they count. I forgot about comics. I am a big fan of the Sandman series. I like the characters you mentioned as well as
Merv Punkinhead.
