I'm trying to figure out who the twelve characters in this picture are. I can figure out a couple of the easy ones, such as Malcolm Reynolds.

Who are the characters in this image?

    @theCaster of the off-topic VTC: Could you explain your reasoning? Granted, not all characters on there fit the SF&F bill, more than half of them do (depending on where one draw the line, admittedly). Even a question like are the guys on the bottom right and the one directly above him (those with the brown coates) the same guy? would be on-topic, wouldn't it?

    “ I can figure out a couple of the easy ones, such as Malcolm Reynolds.” All of them are easy if you know them, and difficult if you don’t know them. Commented Jan 27, 2016 at 12:58

    @MrLister It all but three items when I posted it, and none of my answer was incorrect. Just seemed a little... harsh to down vote rather than simply up vote the other answer (which also wasn't entirely complete at first). Anyway, that's SE for you :)

    That's Captain Jack Sparrow, please. But was Han ever called captain? I mean he was the commanding officer of the Falcon, but that ship is just a big heap of junk, so who has ever addressed him as "Captain Solo"? C3PO prehaps? Commented Jan 17, 2016 at 11:38

    Note that before Captain Morgan was “the rum guy,” he was a real guy. He didn’t look much like the rum guy, but his name was indeed rum :)

    @HagenvonEitzen HAN: Han Solo. I'm captain of the Millennium Falcon. Chewie here tells me you're looking for passage to the Alderaan system.
