I guess to me there's a difference between breaking the forth wall (ala Raphael or Zack Morris) and addressing that they're a fictional characters.



See, I like the idea... but again, once you're aware you're a fictional character, doesn't that just kind of defeat the whole point? Can he even ponder if his existence is meaningful while knowing that pondering if his existence is meaningful is only happening because a writer is writing him to think that way?

Can someone recommend me a tradeback to read? Maybe I'll see it in a new light.

See, you're finally starting to "get" it! It's part of the paradox of his character that he questions the nature of his reality, all the while knowing exactly what that reality is. He can't help himself. It's seriously driving him insane, not that he has far to go when the Weapon X program messed with his head while doing the experiments that gave him his powers. But knowing that everything around him is the product of a writer's imagination also frees him to simply do what he does without worrying about consequences. It'll all get swept under the rug anyway. He's fun BECAUSE he has no filter and no concern for the future or for what will happen to him. It makes him pretty much fearless.
