About Ambush Bug: Ambush Bug debuted in DC Comics Presents #59 (December, 1982) and went on to appear in three of his own mini-series?, a Christmas special (The Ambush Bug Stocking Stuffer) as well as guest starring in numerous appearances (Action Comics, Doom Patrol, and Supergirl, among others). The Bug also appeared in Flashpoint, Amalgam Comics, and Elseworlds stories as well in video games based on DC Comics. Henry Winkler (the Fonz) voiced the Bug in the animated Batman: The Brave and the Bold series. Ambush Bug became a fan/cult favorite, with his trademark delusional behavior, his awareness that he is in a comic book, and the hilarity that ensues all fueled by the quirky humor of Giffen (who often used the series to roast other comic creators and skewer the industry in general). The Bug's popularity extends not just to comic fans but to creators as well who, on occasion, work Ambush Bug cameos into their own stories.
