The first panel? OK, although it would be better if it used something other than "Spartacus". (Like this?

No, the other one.
Isn't that just a gag on the trope without touching the actual trope? There it seems like they're all just actually named Spartacus (or Dan), and they're just responding honestly.
Also, pull current.

Check out my fanfiction!
That is not the trope. It is supposed to be people falsely claiming to be a person to protect the actual person. Like in V for Vendetta?
Becky: Who are you? The Mysterious Stranger: An angel. Huck: What's your name? The Mysterious Stranger: Satan.
I say pull. Not only is it just the face of Spartacus and a caption that has nothing to do with the page, it's basically a duplicate of the pic on Spartacus.
A good visual example might be the scene from the Avatar The Last Airbender episode "The Headband". Let me see if I can find it.

@4: There's an idea. What if we use a shot of the relevant scene from V for Vendetta?
This "faculty lot" you speak of sounds like a place of great power...
Hi
Clock is set.
Hi
Clock's up; locking for inactivity. No further action is to be taken based on this thread.
The image on I Am Spartacus is a picture of Spartacus. Unfortunately, the trope is not about this famous ex-slave, the trope is about how somebody asks "who is <name>" and then a group of people each proclaim to be that person. So the picture illustrates the trope name rather than the trope, and we should pull it as JAFAAC.
Suggested alternative
. Not that great imho but better than the current.
Rhetorical, eh? ... Eight!
