" @The Lobster : Rowlf has had a few appearances recently, but he was retired for a long while in deference to Henson's memory. As popular as Kermit was, Rowlf was actually Henson's first Muppet character, and my understanding that it was the one he most personally identified with. "Yeah I remember reading that. Ever since I read about that, whenever I see Rowlf it makes me think about how much of a legend Jim Henson was. I hope they continue to have Rowlf be more of a tribute to Jim in the movies and don't replace his performer with someone else. Although I hear Bill Barbetta (Pepe the Prawn) is now the character.
Kermit the Frog
Character » Kermit the Frog appears in 235 issues.
Kermit is an anthropomorphized anurid (frog). He is the leader of the Muppets as well as being a frequent contributor to the trials and tribulations of the street life at Sesame Street (can you tell me how to get there?)
