Who is the most Cowardly Character in Fiction?

[dancj]

I agree, the Lion only thought he was Cowardly just as the Scarecrow only thought he wasn't smart, and the Tin Man only thought he had no heart. There is a certain power in self perception, even if that perception is badly formed and inaccurate.

So I used him as a very low bar, knowing that there were many other characters out there who were true cowards.

I'm confused that people seem to be saying this is something the film got wrong, when that is exactly how it was in the film.
