Other than that (which will haunt me for the rest of the day, I swear to Zod), great list. I do think the Prison in "Walking Dead" might belong on that list, since that was around the time I realized this book is too Gods' Blessed Scary for Betsy, and stopped reading.
I absolutely adore Tricksters, but I'm hesitant to call Lex one, if only b/c at least in versions I'm familiar with he's not just playing. He may have been in the beginning, but unlike Moriarty, or the Doctor (sometimes), Lex isn't seeking out his intellectual equal to "play" with (Holmes and the Master), but his polar opposite, ie Superman. A Trickster might not always win and never plays fair, but s/he always keeps themselves at a distance from the outcome. If Anansi gets eaten by Lion after messing with him, he tricks death and comes back to life. He doesn't seek revenge on Lion. Superman has become Lex's life, he can't distance himself from him.
Also, Ryan? You haven't seen Eureka yet? What's the hold up, dude? It's even streaming on Netflix. Watch the Pilot, you'll love it. Trust me.
