* Koh and the Spirit World in ''[[Avatar: The Last Airbender]]''? Visited once and vaguely alluded to several other times in ways that seemed to foreshadow a return visit and... nothing.

* ''[[Tale Spin]]'' has more than its share of interesting one-shot characters. Many of these have become popular with fan writers and artists, including [[Adventurer Archaeologist]]s Myra ("In Search of Ancient Blunders") and Katie Dodd ("For Whom the Bell Klangs") and spunky [[Everything's Better with Princesses|Princess]] Lotta Lamour ("The Road to Macadamia").
