Evolutionary Jr. With Ka Zar giving Sheena a lot of bitter looks.  Charles, after Xavier?

No, but I'll say it is (like "Charles") a normal-person name and not something that relates to Ka-Zar being a Tarzan-type adventurer.

Nope. I'll throw another hint: he shares his first name with a Marvel super-hero whose first and last names are alliterative.

Thoth lad has it - his name is Matthew (don't recall seeing it shortened to Matt on-panel, but it's one and the same). Don't know if he was named for Daredevil (no idea if either Ka-Zar or Shanna have any special history with him), but that's who he shares his first name with.

I was wondering if travelled to NYC to guest in umpteen books. I forgot Reed but Peter was going to be my next guess.

What did the Avengers try to stop Leonard Tippet doing?

His name was supposed to be as bland as he was regarded to be. He didn't murder his parents but...

The answer is a combination of both Ibby and Andy.
Tippet was contacted by The Watcher. After droning on about forever being able to only watch, he completely meddles as usual. Tippet was infused with vast amounts of power and told to kill five people (Ibby's murder answer). It turned out that this was a ruse, to drain Tippet of power that would have destroyed the world (Andy's answer). Tippet sacrificed himself to prevent this power becoming a problem... or something.. I was too busy noticing that the Avengers were calling him an unimportant drab. Shows what they think of the little guy.
Since I would have taken moider as an answer, I'll give it to Ibby as he also answered foist.
Over to you, Ibby!

Whew! sounds like a complicated plot worthy of the Silver Age.
Poor boring Tippet. I can just imagine Wasp, Hawkeye, Iron Man and the rest all being "oh, how can such a normal ordinary man be so powerful...!"
