What’s in a name? It’s the most common name around in english speaking countries besides John (cannot back this up with any claims).
But who’s is Dave? And what is the motivation behind this name? Well it typically is a name that is given to a (anti)hero.  Lets list some of them  :
- Dave Bowman is the hero in 2001: A Space Odyssey
- Dave Lister is the only surviving human in Red Dwarf
- David Banner, the name of the TV Hulk
- The name of the impersonating President of the movie ‘Dave’
The Dave in this adventure is a smart guy, but as many fellows of his age, he is searching for a goal in his life. He dropped out of college for no particular reason and got into trouble when Kangs henchman found him. Kang wants him to do something dangerous. BTW : Kang will be the next character I will introduce.
