For anyone who watched Cartoon Network back in the day, the three main characters from The Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy are apparently all on the autism spectrum. And so is creator Maxwell Atoms.
I found this out while I was looking to see if there’s any page that lists fictional characters who may be on the autism spectrum but are never officially diagnosed in-universe. I could not find one. I suspect that If you combed TVTropes for all the work pages that linked to “Ambiguous Disorder” and parsed through all the characters whose oddities are consistent with ASDs, you could get a good start. Also, for what it’s worth, Wikipedia has a page for officially confirmed fictional characters on the spectrum, but apparently, despite Rick Sanchez confirming he’s on the spectrum in the Season 3 finale, he’s not on the list.
