As much as I love Chuck I wouldn't really consider Sarah an assassin. I mean she does it on occasion but I'm trying to keep it pretty strictly 'this is my profession' here.

From: Justin_Crossing | #151 As much as I love Chuck I wouldn't really consider Sarah an assassin. I mean she does it on occasion but I'm trying to keep it pretty strictly 'this is my profession' here.
She, and Casey, get sent out on missions to kill people. Sure, they do other stuff too, but they totally count as assassins. They're even listed in that Wikipedia link.
Welp, no more out of me for tonight. Will provide another update in the morning if necessary!
Edit note: I just noticed a mistake on my tally. I had Twilight Assassin (The Legend of Zelda) among the entrants when there's actually only one nomination for it. We have 74 slots filled with that, keep in mind if you were planning to nominate this character!
Wolverine (marvel comics) Taskmaster (marvel comics) Jason Morgan (general hospital) Anna Williams (tekken) Zabuza (naruto) Jack Bauer ( 24) Jade (mortal kombat) Sabretooth (marvel comics) Henry Cooldown (no more heroes) Talia Al Ghul (DC Comics)

I have no idea where this will lead us, but I have a definite feeling it will be a place both wonderful and strange.
First problem I have: I'm really not sure if Jack Bauer should qualify for this contest. The goal of these contests is to include people who are very well known for being whatever they are (in this case, assassins) and I really cannot say that he fits that mold. Anyone care to support or defend?
If anyone has questions about other characters, feel free to make suggestions. I have not researched the list yet and the only vote I dismissed immediately was Sephiroth and those that were requested to be removed.
Wolverine's inclusion as "assassin" seems to be based on his early history (he was an assassin sent against Professor X). I'm really dubious on "Hey I used to be an assassin, but you never hear that much about it". Anyone more familiar with Wolverine care to clarify. I'm leaning towards inclusion for him.
Still leaning away on Bauer; events that happened prior to the show, not what the character is known for. As for Vegeta, did he carry out actual assignments?
