I knew von Grawbadger was going to be number one! Didn’t you guys have an argument about some point over whether that could possibly be somebody’s real name?
I’d also like to nominate Ralph Macchio because throughout my entire childhood i honestly thought “The Karate Kid” from the movies was an editor at Marvel Comics….and it totally made sense to me.
Marv Wolfman. His name is so badass the comics code authority made him change it so kids wouldn’t lay awake at night worrying that their funny-books were created by supernatural lupine/man terrors, causing them to flunk outta school, turning to drugs, prostitution, and eventualy ritual canibalism.

Yes!

Every week or so, I see “Yildiray Cinar” and think, “Is that an anagram for something?”
@zombox Oooohh! That’s a good one. Damn.
Conor and I are in agreement, that this is the dumbest post we’ve ever done. ENJOY!
I love how there’s not even pictures. I almost scrolled past the whole thing. Brilliant!
Ben Dimagmaliw.
Jock.
It’s a single word! The only thing lamer would be a symbol.
I’ve had the carmimcoli at Giueseppe’s. It’s no where near as good as Giovvani’s in my neighborhood, but it was all right.
Carmine Infantino
Can’t argue with any of the names, but it’s too bad Peter Snejbjerg doesn’t make the cut.
Frank Quitely is also pretty cool.
Is it did-ee-oh or duh-dee-oh?
My favorite one is Jim Mroczkowski
I’ve always thought Marv Wolfman sounded kinda awesome.
Nick Spencer.
Ed Brubaker
David Petersen
Alan Moore
Geoff Johns
John Byrne
Matthew
Jimmy Palmiotti. I love saying it because it rolls off the tongue, and I feel like I’m apart of The Sopranos.
Dan Abnett and Andy Lanning
How could you forget Vicente Cifuentes?!
Argh, I just realized the point of this post – cancel my last post. I’m going to hide in a box now…
@Tork Yes.
I don’t get it.
Sincerely,
Maxtone Witherball
It is Giuseppe Camuncoli… Cammo for his friends
Frank Quitely has the puniest pen name in comics. Quite Frankly…get it!?!?!
mike mignola
Its such an odd yet epic name
I’d also like to nominate Ralph Macchio because throughout my entire childhood i honestly thought “The Karate Kid” from the movies was an editor at Marvel Comics….and it totally made sense to me.
Ed McGuiness always makes me think of Budweiser…
That was not what I was thinking when I read the name of the post but well done; #1 is the greatest name in all of comics and it ain’t close.
I can’t argue with anything said so far, but I can add:
Ben McCool
Von Grawbadger!
also, I can never read Guiseppe Camuncoli without hearing Josh say it
conor KILL patrick
How the hell are Gabriel Ba and Fabio Moon not on here.
@abstractgeek It’s a fair question.
Ransom Getty! C’mon that name is awesome!
Greg ‘Jet’ Pak
Fred Van Lente (Anyone with ‘Van’ in their name is ultimately cool)
Dick Sprang
Guys. Dick Sprang.
Pornsak Pichetshote.
CAFU
Dick Sprang.
Wow – when I was a kid there was a guy running for city councilman named Dick____Sweat.
There’s also Seth. It’s as simple a name as Jock’s, but more Biblical.
Sherilyn Van Valkenburgh
Dash Shaw
Pornsak Pichetshote
And no Ben McCool?
‘Action’ Matt Fraction is my favorite Stan Lee-name of the modern era.
Jim Woodring’s name is eerily redolent of his comics for me, so I love that one.
Dash Shaw is wonderful as well, almost palindromic as well.
PORNSAK
No love for Keith Champagne?
Can someone help me with the pronunciation of Didio? It’s a for a college exam.
Thank you.
@JumpingJupiter: I’ve heard it pronounced DIDio, but at the cons th pros always seem to pronounce it didEEo, so that’s probably a safe bet.
@JumpingJupiter –i’m almost 100% thats its pronounced did-EE-O
