  • Jaken: The Kappa sidekick, retainer and servant of Sesshomaru. Known for his toad-like appearance, grumpy comments and undying devotion and loyalty to the dog demon.
  • January & Karlene: Sidekicks to Nanette Manoir from Angela Anaconda
  • Jimminy Cricket: Sidekick to and "official conscience" of Pinocchio in the Disney version of the story.
  • Jimmy Olsen: Sidekick to Superman, especially when using the names Nightwing and Flamebird
  • Jingles: Wild Bill Hickok's sidekick portrayed by Andy Devine in radio and television's The Adventures of Wild Bill Hickok, starring Guy Madison as Wild Bill.
  • Jolly Jumper: Sidekick and mount of Lucky Luke. Jolly Jumper is an example of an animal as sidekick, which is not at all unusual, though in most cases the non-human sidekick is a dog (such as Milou in Tintin or Devil in The Phantom). Jolly Jumper is more of a parody of a sidekick, poking fun at the wonder horses of the Western genre, and his specific task in the series is to provide witty and cynical commentary. Some stories also feature Ran Tan Plan, who in turn is the parody of the super-intelligent dogs prevalent in adventure genre (such as Rin Tin Tin): he is possibly the most stupid canine in fiction.
  • Jubilee: Unofficial sidekick of Wolverine.
  • Jughead Jones: Sidekick to Archie Andrews.
  • Jonathan Gray: Sidekick to Lewie 'The Shank' Procter.

  • Ray Ray Lee: Sidekick to and brother of Juniper Lee from The Life and Times of Juniper Lee
  • Andy Richter: former sidekick of Conan O'Brien on Late Night with Conan O'Brien.
  • Roady: Sidekick to Soundman. He is the seemingly harmless and feeble, while indestructible, sidekick of Seattle's singing superhero, Soundman. As, Sound-Man is experienced and highly educated and talented, Roady is the opposite. But, he is very helpful with his Cosmic Toolbelt. Marsalis is the lead singer of the grunge band PearlGarden, as Jerome Santanna-Joplin is their bumbling and hilarious roady.
  • Robin: Sidekick to Batman. He shows Batman's softer side. Batman, orphaned by criminals, takes on young Dick Grayson as his ward after his parents were killed by criminals. Batman trains Robin in crime-fighting. Dick eventually left to become his own hero, Nightwing. Since then, others have stepped in to fill the role of Robin: Jason Todd (formally deceased), Tim Drake (current) and Stephanie Brown (deceased).
