This is pretty cool. While Ted was very funny and all during the JLI period, it was NOT a good time for his image. Never mind the fact that he was a science genius who invented the Bug singlehandedly, or an agile and experienced fighter - no no, never mind all that, let's laugh at Blue and Gold's wacky hijinks. There was actually an issue of Animal Man where J'onn is asked just how the hell Ted managed to qualify for Justice League membership, and he's like 'Errr'. I personally find that an awful shame, since he's actually a very interesting hero when he's treated right - I think Ditko actually intended him to be a sort of a Batman figure (although probably leaning a bit more towards the lighter '60's version, rather than the whole 'Dark Knight' thing). The basics are there - he's the head of a corporation, he's got a distinctive themed vehicle, his career was sparked by the death of someone close to him...
