Who's whose in the DC universe?

I've only really explored the Silver Age section so far. Some of my favourites - Egg Fu, Congo Bill, Clock King, Ultra the Multi Alien and fake Brain Blessed

  • "And I'm utilizing four fantastic powers to beat off these hostile beings."
  • Thanks very much for posting this! Egg Fu has no Wikipedia entry, so I've been completely mystified about him ever since the appearance of a shadowy, egg-shaped Chinese mastermind in 52.
  • Well, you two certainly saved me the trouble of reading the issues I was saving up, didn't you? Didn't you?!? /Runs sobbing into a fort built out of longboxes
  • Oops, my mistake. That should have read: "Spoilers: That guy shaped like an egg may, in point of fact, be a guy shaped like an egg." (Actually, has Egg Fu even shown up past issue 10? All I know is he doesn't switch l's and r's anymore, which is a relief.) Thanks for the link, IC. Clears it up a bit, though the whole villainous egg thing still weirds me out. Also, for those who are interested: Clock King. He was reimagined in Batman: The Animated Series.
  • A comic book ad for the Baby Alive Doll! I loved my Baby Alive. But I was never as shocked as the kids in the ad when she ate or drank, or I "got" to change her diaper. I mean, wasn't that what Mom bought you the flippin' doll for?
  • I don't believe it. There was a robot Egg Fu. Scroll down to the end.
