I was trying to think of any of the on screen Harker adaptations to nominate and it turns out he gets killed off within the first ten minutes/the first episode of a movie/show including the newest one on a 3/5 ratio so I guess the answer is no.
Nobody gets it...
They keep massacreing our boy 😭
What's really telling is that not a single adaptation until re: Dracula (which walks a curious line between adaptation and audio-book) has ever included the Shovel assault - not even the largely book-accurate Manga. I really believe that the core of Jonathan Harker's character is Get You A Man Who Can Do Both - and nobody ever, ever lets him do Both. Instead they give away large chunks of his characterization and narrative role to other members of the cast - Renfield, Van Helsing, Dracula - do that he can be just one thing, and since he is very much the cold open/pre-credits victim, that's frequently all he is allowed to be.
They kill him off for precisely the qualities that allowed him to survive in the first place.

Barrel looks like he would get around on a skateboard while Lock looks like he would get around on a motorcycle.
Do you mind sharing what each of the trio (LBS) use to get around?
Shock flies on her trusty broom!
Lock and Barrel just walk —Halloween Town is all walkable cobblestone roads and there are no vehicles other than the Mayor's hearse (and Jack has since returned the stolen snow mobile). Also I can't imagine anyone allowing them any kind of vehicle license 😆

The "cool kid" lean:
Please tell me I'm cool I'll flip off the handle if anyone thinks I'm a loser. I've been putting the work to look this casual since I was old enough to stand
The cool kid lean:
What are bones, my whole everything's sore. A gentle breeze could knock me over. I can and I will take a nap right on this wall if given half a chance I don't give a fuck. Why's everyone up in my business all of a sudden can't they see I'm busy

“It is doubtful if [Sam] ever did anything braver in cold blood, or more unwise.”
The Two Towers pg. 235
Guess what he’s doing here. Take a wild guess.

“That must have been hard.”
Khun deflated. It was , because of course it was. Every waking moment Khun existed without Baam felt meaningless and wine was the easiest thing he could find in this world to numb that pain. The bottom of the bottle had felt like his only escape. He recalled how every sober moment felt like a nightmare and being drunk felt like it was the only way to survive in this hollow life.
Prior to his death, Baam had been his cooling touch. He’d been the waves in which Khun would allow himself to drown in. He was the antidote to take the pain away. But, with the other gone, Khun felt like he had to placate the fire another way.
He’d let the bitter taste soothe his hell. He’d let it drag him down until his head was submerged in its stupor. In fact, he smiled as he poisoned himself over and over again; almost begging this world to play with his fate the same way the Tower did.
