Mashable artist and writer Max Knoblauch has created an illustrated series of the “8 Most Common Video Game Characters.” You can view more of Max’s funny characters online.

We created this illustrated guide to the characters we seem to meet time after time, game after game. We love them, hate them and have witnessed them die disturbingly often. We control their fates like we control their movements: recklessly and selfishly. Trust us, we know them when we see them.
