Fixed the link; you have to put it in CamelCase.
Motion to pull
Textbook JAFAAC, doesn't demonstrate the trope at all.
I'm not even really sure how we'd go about pic'ing this one.

Clock is set; anyone else for/against the pull?

Hearing nothing else, I guess we'll let it sit until someone makes a new thread. Locking up.

According to the Laconic, the Spear Carrier is a character who "shows up, says a line, then is never seen again."
However, the image fails to show the trope. It's just a few amazed faces. The caption doesn't help either. It simply doesn't help someone understand the trope any better.
May I ask for a new image? Perhaps it can be a short comic, showing a man walking in, saying a few lines, and then walking out. The caption could read "And he was never seen again in the rest of the story" or something along those lines.
