Line 43:
** On the subject of ''[[Death Note]]'', it isn't uncommon for some poor sod to pop up in an anime forum and inquire about the similarities between Light Yagami and a certain [[Monster (manga)|Monster Without a Name]]. If the [[Internet Backdraft]] on who the better villain is doesn't instantly erupt there, expect a very long, ''very'' [[Fan Wank|Fan Wanky]] [[Ultimate Showdown of Ultimate Destiny]] between the two.
** Comparisons are made between L and Ulquiorra. Both are pale-skinned [[The Stoic|stoics]] who end up fighting against [[Shinigami]] as the story's antagonists (although L is a [[Hero Antagonist]], even to those few who don't see Light as evil).
* As an inter-medium example, the protagonists of ''[[The Big O]]'', ''[[Code Geass]]'', and ''[[Darker
** There's a reason for this - the same studio that did Big O also worked on Batman: The Animated Series. Roger was at least partly inspired by Bruce Wayne, while the art-style was similar enough to smooth over the differences.

Odd in that the original is compared to the [[Expy]], not the other way around.
Line 135:
* Raziel from ''[[Legacy of Kain]]'' was resurrected by a powerful supernatural entity following a betrayal during which he was very badly burned. As a wraith bent on revenge, he can't be killed, and only temporarily returns to the underworld when drained of energy. He wears a mask to cover his hideous face, and he's capable of slaughtering his enemies with a glowing energy weapon emitted from his hand. Does this [[Spawn|sound familiar?]]
* SHODAN from ''[[System Shock]]'':
** Has {{spoiler|Frank Fontaine}} the villain of ''[[
** And [[Portal (series)|GlaDOS]] obviously.
** Created a parasitic hive-mind race that seeks to assimilate or devour all life in the galaxy. [[Halo|Yeah, like that.]] See also the Drudge parasites from ''[[Blood|Blood 2: The Chosen]]'' which predates ''[[System Shock|System Shock 2]]'' by a year.
