    Leopold's claim to fame was being half the battery of guns known as "Anzio Annie" to American troops being bombarded by it and it's twin - named Robert - as they attempted to establish a beach-head near Anzio, Italy during WW2

    As for me...

    Killjoy is a combination of a play on words centering on a bit of graffiti painted by US troops on various locations across the globe - "Kilroy was here", and the name of an obscure character from the (I believe) now defunct Charlton comics publication "E-Man".
    Killjoy seemed to have no super powers save the ability to nullify the effects of whatever villains attempted to do to him, at which point they might be inclined to utter the phrase:
    "You're such a Killjoy !"

    Funny you should ask; I just got here.

    I have long related to Professor Marvel, the mere mortal who the residents of Emerald City proclaimed to be “Oz, the First Wizard Deluxe”. Many unbelievers remember him as a charlatan; they forget that in the end his wizardry triumphed.

    In my case, there have been many times in my life when I received more credit than I felt I deserved for what I had done. And yet I can’t think of any one person who could live my whole life any better than I.

    (Or maybe we’re both just hucksters!)

    No, it's a kind of military rank, or like a police officer one.

    It sounds a bit like Commissioner, which I believe is top rank (or at least close to it?) in a Police station.

    Umm, mine is a bit easy to understand. I'm searching for many things,and I'm alive so I guess it clarifies me to be called a being.

    I like rude screen-names. Once, feeling a bit cheeky, I registered onto this site as likyerpussy. Some girl replied to my post, which wasn't rude at all and asked me what my name meant, when I sort of spelled it out for her, she got really cross and then her boyfriend posted a really threatening message to me. What is it with people?

    that's a hilarious scenario, since you obviously didn't come up with that name with her in mind. lol @ newbs.

    I can't believe you had to even kind of spell it out for her!
