Well, think again. Dan Karlan, Allan Lazar, Jeremy Salter teamed up to write The 101 Most Influential People Who Never Lived: How Characters of Fiction, Myth, Legends, Television, and Movies Have Shaped Our Society, Changed Our Behavior, and Set the Course of History. HarperCollins describes 101 Most Influential as an "endlessly entertaining compendium of fictional trendsetters and world-shakers who have helped shape our culture and our lives" noting the paperback "offers fascinating histories of our most beloved, hated, feared, and revered invented icons and the indelible marks they made on civilization..."
