First introduced in a book, novel, magazine, periodical, newspaper, or other similar format meant to be read by its audience?
No.
Actually I'll change this to a yes.
Are we dealing with a character from a comic book or graphic novel?

Is the character a robot of some sort?

also clarification: would a comic strip be considered a valid medium? cus its not a comic book exactly, and is often included as part of a newspaper, but it still kinda blurs those lines imo

The question only asked about comic books and graphic novels, so comic strips have not been eliminated.

Is this character primarily known through its usage in a medium that is intended for its audience to be read?

For the purposes of this question, "primarily known" means "famous enough to justify selection as a 20Q pick". As a pair of examples, Harry Potter is extremely well-known as both a book character and as a movie character, and should receive a "Yes" answer to this question, while Shrek, although originally a book character, is not very well-known as such, and so should receive a "No" answer to this question.
