Characters, or karaks,[1] are an integral part of modern graffiti culture.[1] Characters are "creatures or personas” that feature in graffiti works.[2] They may be taken from popular culture (especially cartoons and comic books) or created by the writer as a signature character.[3] Chararacters are found in almost all forms of graffiti, including ancient graffiti and the earliest forms of modern graffiti.[4]
