Welcome to Five by Friday! This week I’m taking the reins and talking about my top five favorite characters with beards, because men with beards are a delight and a blessing and we are all lucky to live in a world where men can grow hair on their faces.
Join us in the comments or on your own blog–we’ve even provided a graphic for you, which you can either save to your own space or link from tinypic using the following HTML code: <*a href=”http://avengingforce.com”><*img src=”http://i59.tinypic.com/2d9318w.jpg”><*/a> Just remove the asterisks, and you’re all set!
5. Thorin Oakenshield
4. Thor
3. Warden Blackwall
2. Aragorn, Son of Arathorn
1. Commander William T. Riker
Because he’s my current love, I’ve got Blackwall at #1. For the rest- 2. Aragon, 3. Ragnar, 4. King Leonidas, 5. Thor
Blackwall’s #1 CURRENTLY for me… but for ALL TIME, I don’t think anything’s ever going to topple Riker from his #1 spot. He’s the reason I like beards so much in the first place! And man, Aragorn. That’s a long-term beard relationship right there.
