Sometimes, characters will answer questions from readers (though sometimes the questions are only meant to seem as if they came from readers, such as in Family Guy), as if the Fourth Wall had a mail slot. This is particularly common with Webcomics, since the nature of the medium makes it easy to set up multiple pathways for audience feedback, such as a Shout Box, a blog-powered News Post, or a Message Board. One reason that webcomickers have given for answering questions in-character is to not give as many spoilers, since then the answers are limited to what the character knows. The Fourth-Wall Mail Slot is also a handy gimmick for sketching quick Filler Strips to prevent Schedule Slip, though many webcomickers keep it separate, as a bonus extra, many (such as El Goonish Shive) include it as a regular end-of-issue (or story-arc) feature. Some don't even make the in-character Q&A into a comic, leaving it as plain text instead, or with just a small illustration. Occasionally this is used to reveal All There in the Manual-type information about the storyline that hasn't been mentioned in the comic and may not ever be. Some art-based Ask Blogs are basically if this took over the entire comic. Naturally, given all these advantages, it's not surprising that webcomic artists will sometimes blatantly make up stuff to push through the slot. ...wait.

Angel Hare has bonus videos twice per season in which Francis (filling in for Gabby, who is apparently supposed to be the one reading them, but is always unavailable whenever it comes up) reads questions from the Youtube comments section as if they’re letters being sent to the show by fans. In the second such episode of season 2, the spot was instead filled by Zag's secretary Francine. | |

The Autobiography of Jane Eyre is a Setting Update vlog inspired by The Lizzie Bennet Diaries. Jane communicates with her viewers through commenting at the video, on her Tumbrl page or Twitter, and she also does Q&A sessions. Jane's actress Allyson Hall and others from the creative team sometimes offer their views and comments as well, either directly at the videos or on their social network pages. | |

In the early 1980s, the letter column of the Uncanny X-Men comic was answered by a designated character each issue, resulting in things like Wolverine claiming that Rogue dyed—well, bleached—her trademark white streak into her hair. Though the bit about Rogue was, apparently, Word of God, and not just Wolverine snarking — at least back then... This has been brought back in the letters page of New Exiles. Since they're based outside the multiverse, it was actually possible in-story that they might be receiving letters from a dimension where they're fictional characters. They thought it was weird, though. |

Achewood's typically subversive version of this was an actual problem page where readers mailed in their genuine sexual and personal problems. This was always accompanied by the disclaimer that, since the advice was being dispensed by Ray (a cartoon cat who, even if he were real, would probably not be the best person to take advice from) it would probably be best for the correspondents to not make any life decisions based on his answers. | |

In the kids' science show The Magic School Bus, there is a "Producer Says" segment at the end of each episode, in which a fictional producer of the show receives fictional phone calls from fictional kids complaining about how some things that happened on the (fictional) show couldn't happen in real life. This was a way of defusing the more fantastic aspects of the show so as to keep to its educational agenda. | |

British weekly comics have a long history of this. In the mid-1960s, TV Century 21 had a letter column that was answered by "S", the head of the Universal Secret Service that was featured in one of the strips in the comic. Later, the job was taken over by Colonel White of Spectrum when the Captain Scarlet and the Mysterons strip began. | |

Doonesbury does the "reader mail" bit periodically. Lately it's been relegated to an annual thing, usually happening the first week of the year. It's a bit of an aversion in that the questions are usually about the production of the comic itself and not the storyline. Also, while the letters are real, the answers are usually blatantly false (like the time someone asked why the strip had no Hispanic characters, and Mike replied with a list of prominent recurring Hispanic cast members...none of whom had ever been seen before.) | |

Bill & Ted's Excellent Comic Book had a different character answering the letters for each issue. It got particularly surreal in issue #8, when the character answering the letters was Station, who can only say his own name. The answers in that particular letter column consisted of Station replying "Station!" to all the letters, with some unhelpful attempted translations by the comic's editors, who spent more time arguing over how much sense it made to have an entire species with a one-word vocabulary than actually translating Station's replies. | |

One episode of the Nyaruko: Crawling with Love! Nyaruani shorts series had Nyarko and Mahiro hosting such a show. Their first (and only) letter comes from someone with the pen name "Demon Vending Machine" (which Nyarko declares an Awesome McCoolname); however, he loses her good will by asking an extremely nitpicky Series Continuity Error question, which annoys Nyarko so much that she rips the letter into confetti. Then she cheerfully says "To be continued!", to which Mahiro replies "No it won't!" | |

Clerks: The Animated Series did this twice in its six-episode run; once in the third episode Dante and Randall answered letters from the audience, which introduced their black friend Lando, and in the final episode the boys hosted a panel at a convention and took questions from the audience. The nature of the questions inspired Dante to make the series more like the original movie, leading to the series's second Locked in a Room episode. | |

Red Dwarf's Smeg Ups special featured Kryten answering the 10 (allegedly) most common questions from fan letters. He answered the questions increasingly quickly, (one was "what are the lyrics to the closing theme?", which he answered by reciting the lyrics faster than Busta Rhymes) and became increasingly frustrated with questions relating to continuity errors, which accounted for about half the questions ("BECAUSE WE MADE A MISTAKE!") | |

Fans who have tried writing in have received copies of the drawings in the puzzle box. Most of the letters appearing directly above Mark's filing cabinet are, in fact, written by fans.

The Star Trek official website — when they had an official website, that is — had a number of "in character" mailbags, including two at one point running concurrently, answered by a Klingon and a Ferengi, who would at times take swipes at each other in their columns! Then they got rid of them and went with a refugee from that gangster planet from the original series. It wasn't as funny. The one-shot answered by Captain Pike, however was pure comedy gold. | |

Vertigo Comics' Fables series did it one notch better. They ran a contest for the most interesting questions, and in issue #59 "Burning Questions" they answered them by making each of the answers a fully-canon vignette. | |

Parodied on KaBlam! on a few occasions. One had a request for Henry to "put his hand over his face". He proceeded, then June karate-chopped him in the face, and told the audience that she sent that request in herself. | |

Kaeloo: In-universe, in the episode "Let's Play Catch the Mailman", Kaeloo gets a letter from a fan of the show criticizing her for being annoying and boringnote This actually reflects the views of some real fans of the show. The letter turns out to have been written by Mr. Cat. Parodied in one episode. Mr. Cat says that nobody has ever seen Quack Quack laugh, but nobody is sure if he's right or if they actually have seen him laugh. They tell the audience that true fans should know the answer and that the fans should mail them a letter containing the correct answer. |

RuneScape had an email address to write letters to the Fantasy Pantheon early on in its series run, who would reply to a few whilst bickering over who gets to pick letters from the mailbag. This was later expanded to the ability to write to (and maybe get replies from) the entire series cast. | |

In the long-since-ended Adventurers Club magazine (a house organ for Hero Games), the earlier letter columns are "written" by lunatic supervillain Foxbat. After Foxbat's apparent death in the artwork for Champions II, a different character took over the job of answering the mail... but it wasn't as funny. | |

Axe Cop has Ask Axe Cop, a side feature where readers ask Axe Cop questions. Not only is it just as funny as the main storyline, it is also a must-read, since some concepts and characters, like the T-Rex Wexter, get introduced first here and later put into the main comic without explanation of where they came from. | |

Most British humour comics of the seventies and eighties had the lettercolumn run by the "flagship" character (usually but not always the one whose strip was on the front cover). These included Dennis the Menace (UK) for The Beano, Desperate Dan for The Dandy, Little Mo for The Beezer, Buster for Buster, Sid and Shiner for both halves of Whizzer and Chips and so on. For a while The Beano also had a half-page feature called "Roger's Dodge Clinic", where readers could send their problems to Roger the Dodger, and he could advise them how to scam their way out of it. | |

Even Archie Comics has done it, with advice columns answered by "Betty and Veronica" in their 1970's and 1980's issues. Josie had a column as well. Later on, the columns were mocked with a Reggie version, where he took letters meant for Betty and Veronica and answered them sarcastically. The latter is possibly the funniest thing Archie has ever printed. It's in Archie and Friends #5, if you want to hunt it down. | |

On the SBS pages of the One Piece volumes, Oda will sometimes invite the characters of the series to answer character-related fan questions. A Running Gag is some perverted reader asking for a female character's three sizes, Oda replying that he doesn't know, but that Sanji certainly knows, after which Sanji pops in and gives the answer. | |

There's a little comic excerpt based on the cover for chapter 93 of Skip Beat!, which features Ren embracing Kyoko with his trademark dark and brooding "emperor of the night" expression - the comic reveals that they're doing a photoshoot, with Ren stating that the pose was a request from a reader.

Top Secret had a couple of character originally created by an editor-in-chief who had to make an entire issue by himself and tried to cover up the lack of personnel. They later began appearing in comics featured in the magazine, but also kept occasionally "writing" articles and were pretty indistinguishable from real editors (it didn't help that one of them was the editor-in-chief's Author Avatar). As a result, they frequently ended up answering letters (or having letters addressed directly to them), and some readers couldn't tell they were not real people, wondering who is hiding under these nicknames. | |

In If the Emperor Had a Text-to-Speech Device, episode 12.5 is, officially, an in-universe Q&A with the Imperial citizens (and a few non-Imperials), but all the questions are submitted by fans, leading to a few moments of Breaking the Fourth Wall and dozens of people asking about the Tau. Episode 18.5 is mostly this, but some questions are from the author's friends. Whose avatars subsequently get humiliated or punched in the face. Yeah, it's that kind of series. Each of the Podcasts ends with the assembled group answering questions of varying quality. |

The British comic based on the Transformers Film Series did this as well. At first, it was run by Starscream (who wasn't pleased when readers sent him mail about how much they liked the Autobots, though he was a saint compared to Armada Starscream). It was later taken over by Ironhide and Barricade, who had a lot of fun with continuity issues and Barricade's unexplained disappearance. Near the end of 2011, when the comic was retooled to focus on Transformers: Prime, the letters page came to be run by that show's incarnations of Arcee and Megatron. | |

In Aquaman (1991), Porm answered the mail in issue 10, while Vulko answered for issue 12. Both characters gave trivia about themselves as well as answering fan questions and previewing the next issue's story. | |

This segment is unrelated to the storyline, and it doesn't give gameplay tips, but it does explain how the world of BlazBlue works. BlazBlue: Continuum Shift adds "Help Me! Dr. Kokonoe!", where Kokonoe scolds you for getting a bad ending. Considering how the bad endings usually play out, this can also be considered Mood Whiplash. |

Eyeshield 21, D.Gray-Man and Ouran High School Host Club have these in between chapters in the tankoubon. D.Gray-Man actually had a hilarious crossover bit with this, when a question intended for their Fourth Wall Mail Slot wound up in the inbox of Gintama creator Hideaki Sorachi... who then attempted to answer the question semi-seriously. You can read about it on this Livejournal. |
