I'm currently on crutches from a broken leg, but should be walking again by Halloween. I'll need a cane, though, hence the topic. Please help me think of some cool characters that require canes. The only thing I can think of is the unoriginal PIMP.

I tried to search google for movie characters that use canes, but somehow only came up with some porn star named STEPHANIE CANE (search her sometime i you get a chance...wow). I digress.

Any movie/video game/comicbook characters that have canes would be perfect. Thanks for your help!

EDIT: Already got some good ideas, so I'll list them here:

  • Pimp (of course)
  • Willy Wonka
  • Death (scythe is kinda like a cane)
  • Dr. House
  • Aristocrat
  • Uncle Bad Touch :?
  • Havelock Vetinari ???
  • Mr. Peanut
  • Shade (DC Comics)
  • Jack the Ripper
  • Charlie Chaplin
  • Riddler
  • Joker with a limp (not exactly what I had in mind...)
  • Master Splinter
  • Monopoly Man

A pimp. Just say that some of your employees revolted because they wanted better health benefits :P Also, if you feel like being classy, you can be an aristocrat or Willy Wonka :P

I would have said Havelock Vetinari, but nobody will know who he is.

Death has a scythe, which is pretty cool. Eh? EH? Do a lil' reapin' maybe?

I agree, go with Willy Wonka (the original, not the creepy Depp version).

You could probably pull off using a cane with a Hojo costume.

Thanks for all the suggestions, guys. So far I think Willy Wonka and Charlie Chaplin are leading, with the Riddler a distant 3rd. I would love t go as Splinter, but the costume might be a little too difficult. I think I'll post a poll with my 4 or 5 favorite suggestion in a few days. Thanks again!

If you don't have your wits about you and a mastery of sarcasm, don't do House. Do either a pimp or, if you can do a impersonation of him, Alex from Clockwork Organge.

Alexander DeLarge, then get 3 other friends to dress similar to you and you have your own gang of droogies. Be sure to modify the cane to carry a knife within.

Ah, my first suggestion was a pimp as well. lol I would say use a character who has a rather large/long weapon or assessory that they walk with. Like someone said grim reaper, perfect example.

hmm.. doesn't the penguin use a cane as well as an umbrella? or is it only umbrellas?

Whoever suggested Alex from A Clockwork Orange is BRILLIANT.
