Sherlock Holmes
We just wanted to clarify this one in case you still think that Sherlock Holmes really existed. This is not the case, ladies and gentlemen. All right, the author did base him on a British surgeon by the name of Joseph Bell. Despite this, the detective has only ever existed on the pages of our books!

Zorro
How can you not be familiar with that famous swordsman with the black horse, black mask, and black cape? We are talking about none other than Zorro, of course. His story has been around for a pretty long time now. We are clear that he was nothing more than a legend invented by someone called Johnston McCulley. However, the character was inspired by a 19th-century thief called Joaquin Murrieta.
