fanthropology asks today: What characters of today might be as well recognized and loved in 200 years as Holmes still is now?Interesting comments. I think that Han Solo will endure more than either Luke or Leia. I don't know enough about the Star Trek franchise to know whether Kirk will endure as some sort of archetype in the future. I'm tempted to guess Malcolm Reynolds, but it's a fair argument that he is derived from Han Solo and/or any other number of noble characters adhering to Lost Causes(TM).
Thoughts?
