Comic-Con is on the way but I’m skipping out on San Diego entirely this year for various reasons — none of them unfortunate. Meanwhile, James Mangold’s “The Wolverine,” one of at least 10 comic book adaptations hitting screens this year, is right around the corner.

The new film will be Hugh Jackman’s sixth as the mutant Logan/Wolverine after “X-Men” (2000), “X2” (2003), “X-Men: The Last Stand” (2006), “X-Men Origins: Wolverine” (2009) and “X-Men: First Class” (2011). Not only that, but next year’s “X-Men: Days of Future Past” will bring him into the rare air of a seventh portrayal, and as he told HitFix’s Drew McWeeny in a recent interview, the actor is “not ready to give him up just yet.”

All of this got me thinking: Who else has played a character seven times?

I came up with an interesting array. Sorry, “Police Academy” fans, I left that crew off, but yes, some actors appeared in all seven films. And Richard Belzer deserves a shout-out for playing Detective/Sergeant John Munch countless times across multiple series on television. But prepare yourself for the record-holder here; if anybody was ever tired of playing the same character over and over, it has to be that guy.
