Vegeta & Goku (DragonBall Z)
Bruce & Clark (DC comics)
Lex & Clark (DC comics)
Avon & Blake (Blake's 7)
Raffles & Bunny (Raffles the Amateur Cracksman)
Holmes & Watson (Sherlock Holmes)

These are all characters I've been reading/watching lately, and I've been noticing a kind of ... theme ... I think, in their interactions. More than just them, of course. There are lots of characters that fall into the same pattern. Not all of them are male, either, though I notice it does seem to be slightly more common among men, at least in fiction.
