Doc Ock?! He is harmless

I used to be obsessed with the Trapster, previously Paste Pot Pete. He was a lame-ass who beat people by spraying glue on the ground and "trapping" them. He should have been called the Glue-ster or maybe the Adhesive-ster.

Funny what we obsess over when we're young.

And what the hay happened to Robocop?

Best one: Typeface

Try as I might, I just can't muster any fear of Typeface.

Origin: (Typeface) lost a friend in the war and almost died himself...He then became a craftsman of letters and became a Signsmith and an educator...After being laid off his job, he craved revenge...

He chose a life of crime because he got laid off from his signmaking job? C'mon. Give us a wee bit of credit.

That also sounds like Captain Mucilage of the Civic Minded Five, from the (animated) Tick.

Why does Typeface have a letter-opener shaped like the letter P? Shouldn't it be shaped like the letter L? For letter-opener?

Having recently perused ASM 1-400 or so (thank you BT), I'm stunned there were three incarnations of the deadly Kangaroo.

Typeface is part of the nefarious Font Family.

Do they have any aliases? Or only anti-aliases?
