Comic Buddhists
Here's a database of Buddhist comic book characters. It's a pretty sad crew, except for Bulletproof Monk. Wolverine gets tagged as a sometimes Buddhist, probably of the Sam Harris / Stephen Batchelor variety IMO. THe Shadow and Mandrake the Magician learned their magical arts in Tibet. It seems that in the minds of comic book authors Tibetan Buddhism and sorcery are one and the same.
