> [@Sefton](#): > > Edmond Dantes, Sir Percival Blakeney, Don Diego de la Vega, and Bruce Wayne No, Bruce Wayne would dislike Sir Percy intensely. The Pimpernel and Don Diego would get along so well that everyone else, even Edmond, would feel left out. > [@Skald\_the\_Rhymer](#): > > Bruce Wayne is unfriendable. Nope, Edmond Dantes would. ---

> [@Oakminster](#): > > Count de Monet and Hedley Lamar 😃 Please excuse me if I’m being too presumptuous. But in case anyone is curious just who these people are, Count de Monet is a character from the movie History of the World Part One (1981) (an extremely funny movie). Next time you are in the mood for a comedy, if you’ve never seen this, I’d like to recommend it to you. I’m certain you will enjoy it. Hedley Lamar is a character from the movie Blazing Saddles (1974). It is another vrey funny movie. I would doubt that most people have not heard of it. But if you haven’t ever heard of it, I would like to recommend that you see it because it’s a great movie. Once you see these two movies, I don’t think you will ever forget either one of these characters. ---

[Impossible Man](http://https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Impossible_Man) would absolutely love to team up with [Mr. Mxyzptlk](http://https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mister_Mxyzptlk).

People, can we get past the “Hey how about these two guys who just happen to be played by the same actor?” It was funny once. Not twenty times. ---
