Botticelli

[chuckro]

feiran suggests that it's my turn for a round of Botticelli. Refer to the links and discussions in her posts for rules. I'll be doing "one stump, one direct", the same as her.

The character is fictional.

The letter is D.

For easy reference, details revealed by direct questions:
I am human.
I am male.
I am adult, over the age of 20.
I am from comics.
I am not evil.
I have no extrordinary powers.
I'm not a DC character.
I do not appear in a superhero comic.
I appear in a newspaper comic strip.
I have been in movies, but not in a very long time, and it's certainly not what I'm best known for.

And dushai with the win! Dagwood Bumstead it is.

Are you the main character in Matt Groening's favorite show?

[bigscary.livejournal.com]

Are you a time-travelling facist?

[chuckro.livejournal.com]

I'm not Per Degaton...

[chuckro.livejournal.com]

...I have no idea. Given that none of the main characters of The Simpsons or Futurama start with a D, consider me stumped.

Did you make an amulet to control monsters?

Do you rule over the 2nd of the Nine Hells?

Does the mouth in your hand speak to you?
Are you fond of running up and down stadium steps?
Are you and your dog trapped in mindless corporate hell?
Are you and your master trapped in mindless corporate hell?
Are you one of only two male black widows?
Have you ever flown off with a plucky youngster to his magical home?
Are you a dashing duelist with a dog for a steed?

I'm not Dorukan. And I'm amused by the Oots reference, but I feel like that's more obscure than Botticelli. Or the character I actually picked.

[chuckro.livejournal.com]

Damn, obscure D&Deities. Call me stumped for not remembering this one, but it's also far more obscure than I'm going.

Are you the artificially intelligent star of an eponymous eighties film?

[edgehopper.livejournal.com]

Well, Durkon would have been too obvious.

Were you specially chosen to guard an underage emperor?

Are you the reincarnation of Rommie in a hot-pink-wearing, former-Baywatch-babe body?

Are you Angel's first sidekick?

[trinityvixen.livejournal.com]

Ooh! I know this one!

[ivy03.livejournal.com]

Are you one of Arthur's Knights?

[trinityvixen.livejournal.com]

Ah, I tricked you with wording! I meant his favorite show, not his favorite of the ones he makes :)

So, what you're saying is, you're not The Doctor? (hee, I thought the icon would give me away! Matt Groening has said that he grew up watching Doctor Who and there's lots of tributes to it in Futurama).

Are you male?

Are you a Canadian Mountie?

THIS FILM SCARRED FOR LIFE. For life I tell you!

Does the mouth in your hand speak to you?
Are you fond of running up and down stadium steps?

...nope, I got nothing.

Are you and your dog trapped in mindless corporate hell?
Are you and your master trapped in mindless corporate hell?
I am neither Dilbert nor Dogbert.

Are you one of only two male black widows?
Have you ever flown off with a plucky youngster to his magical home?
Are you a dashing duelist with a dog for a steed?

Okay, fine, five direct questions. How many of these were from anime I've never seen?

[ivy03.livejournal.com]

Are you the Highlander?

[chuckro.livejournal.com]

Yes.

Ever melted a wicked witch?
Were you The Only One He Ever Feared?
How about your brother--was *he* The Only One He Ever Feared?
Are you a street-smart redheaded rebel from a Brooks book?
Did someone after your sister mistakenly trap you in a globe for a few years?
Are you an insane vampire who likes lacy dresses?

Are you an eponymous animated kids show on Nickelodeon?

[trinityvixen.livejournal.com]

I never actually watched it. I just know the name from one of the tapes my parents had (they used to tape movies off of HBO). I was just super excited that I got the reference since I really suck at this game.

[feiran.livejournal.com]

Let's see. In order: Vampire Hunter D, Desmond (from Lost), Daemon Sadi (from a book, actually), Wendy Darling, and Sir Didymous (Labyrinth). So, only one. :)

Questions:
Are you male?
Are you human?
Are you from comics?
Are you evil?
Do you have extranormal powers?
