Fictional trenchcoat wearers

Comics and Graphic Novels
Trenchcoat are used in a number of comics, animated series, and graphic novels. The use could be traced back to the Golden Age of Comics. Most of the heroes in question owned their creation in earlier pulp detective archetypes. This include Doctor Occult, Green Hornet and Crimson Avenger, among others. John Constantine, the main protagonist of the Hellblazer series, wears a trenchcoat as an integral part of his image and refers to himself as a member of the Trenchcoat Brigade. Rorschach from Watchmen wears a trenchcoat. Marvel comics thief and supersoldier Fantomex wore a white trenchcoat as part of his costume. During Grant Morrison’s run on the X-Men comics, titled New X-Men, the characters Jean Grey and Emma Frost wore leather trenchcoats. Gambit (comics) from the X-Men wears a brown trenchcoat over his armor.

Many of the characters in Frank Miller’s Sin City wear trenchcoats. Comic book villain The Joker occasionally wears a grey or purple trenchcoat, often accompanied by a matching wide-brimmed zoot hat. Osmosis Jones’s nemesis, Thrax, wears a trenchcoat. Tommy Monaghan, the titular star of the comic book Hitman, regularly wears a dark green trenchcoat. The Phantom (aka Mr. Walker) wears a signature trenchcoat and a Fedora when walking in town as an ordinary man. The Punisher AKA Frank Castle also wears a trenchcoat to conceal his skull t-shirt.

The Crimson Avenger & The Question in Justice League Unlimited
In Garry Trudeau’s comic trip Doonesbury, television news reporters are frequently depicted wearing trenchcoats. The military details, like the D-rings and the collar strap, are carefully drawn, indeed exaggerated.

Science Fiction
The Tenth Doctor in the British science-fiction series Doctor Who, played by David Tennant, wears a brown trenchcoat over his ‘greek chic’ brown pin-stripe suit. Most of the characters of the Matrix trilogy belonging to the human faction, such as Neo and Morpheus, wore trenchcoats during their incursions in the Matrix. The Replicant Roy Batty in Bladerunner wore a black leather trenchcoat, while Deckard wore an original Burberry trenchcoat. A leather trenchcoat was used as one of the trademarks of Vampire Spike in Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Angel. Likewise, the vampire Angel, also a Buffyverse character, often wore trenchcoats, especially during the second season of Buffy the Vampire Slayer, when he reverted to his evil self, Angelus.

In the 2002 sci-fi series Firefly, the rebellious independent Faction of the Unification War became known as Browncoats for wearing brown trenchcoats in combat (as opposed to the sophisticated battle suits of the Alliance).

Others Film
Eric Draven, portrayed by Brandon Lee, wore a trenchcoat as part of his infamous wardrobe in the film “The Crow”. Kevin Smith’s character creation Silent Bob always wears a green trenchcoat. Lemony Snicket, fictitious author of the book series A Series Of Unfortunate Events, is often shown in photoghraps wearing a brown trenchcoat. Carmen Sandiego wears a red trenchcoat and a red fedora hat as her main costume. On the movie Jeepers Creepers, Creeper would wear a trenchcoat that disguised himself. The characters Mark and Ken Gor of the A Better Tomorrow films are also famous for their long-dark trenchcoats known as “dusters”.

In an important scene in Kramer Vs. Kramer, Ted Kramer (Dustin Hoffman) tell his boss over lunch that he has finally bought a “Burberry Coat”. He says,”My hand was trembling as I wrote out the check.” This marks one of the rare occasions when a Burberry trenchcoat was bought with a check, rather than a credit card. The point is that such a coat is an expensive status symbol, thus making its purchase a rite of passage. (in a later scene in the same restaurant, Kramer’s boss fires him over lunch.)

Miscellaneous
Many characters from the game Deus Ex, including the lead (JC Denton) and his brother (Paul Denton). The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles wore tan colored trenchcoats as disguises when they had to traverse the streets of New York City. Mark Calaway AKA The Undertaker wears a black long leather trenchcoat in WWE. Kino from Kino’s Journey also wears two trenchcoats. She wears a much shorter olive green trenchcoat that is more like a regular coat but still holds many of the properties of a trenchcoat such as a distinctive military style. Her second trenchcoat is more of a traditional style and beige coloring that she wears as an outer layer. It used to belong to the older Kino from episode 4. Organization XIII from Kingdom Hearts 2 wore black trenchcoats with hoods. Sephiroth, one of the most famous villains from the Final Fantasy series of video games, has a rather unique trenchcoat as part of his outfit.
