Yes. He was the Midway City Museum's publicist. I don't think he appeared in too many stories.

Whiz Comics, in which Captain Marvel first appeared, was not going to be the name of that title originally.

What was the name of Whiz Comics supposed to have been and why was it changed?

Marvel Comics (or Captain Marvel comics), maybe, because of copyright issues? (same reason they or DC can't publish a series about Billy Batson and the rest using "Marvel")

Well, *one* of the original titles was Flash Comics, and DC may have beaten them to that one, so that's what I'll go with.

Wonder Woman: It was changed because being the title character is much too dangerous for a girl.

Miner's got it. Flash Comics was the first title they wanted to use but DC beat them to the punch by I believe only a few days.

Jeepers! My random guess of a DC Team with members whose names I don't know almost payed off!

Er... I'm assuming it must be another Silver Age DC Sea-based team, but I can't think of any!

Well, I looked it up. They are part of the International Sea Devils.

I really think Eryk should get the next question.

I was going to move in a completely different direction, and guess the Secret Six (who come pretty close after the Sea Devils alphabetically!).

Anyway, I've been wanting to ask this question for awhile, so I'll take it:

What DC Comics character is named for a prominent 19th century philosopher?

Hmm... probably would count, though not the example I was thinking of, which is much more blatant.

Kent is getting very close.
