Seriously, dude, take a few deep breaths. You are getting way too worked up about this.

I've already covered most of what you said in your initial comment anyway. I understand the point about non-speaking characters. I know he has a backstory, but I also don't think that there's enough in the character for a full battle. A lot of the character's lore is just fan-theory, considering his enigmatic, elusive nature.

As for the comedy aspect, the danger is that Slender Man's design already borders on the comedic (what with the suit and blank face) but when in an ERB, he loses all potential "scare" value. Presumably if he were included in an ERB, the tone would be horror-based, and thus probably include elements of horror to it (like with Ripper VS Lecter) but with something like Slender Man dancing around, the battle would end up looking utterly ludicrous.
