Fan Casting Irwin Schwab in Angel and the Ape

Ambush Bug is a well-meaning but incompetent adventurer who vaguely fights crime and probably suffers from mental illness. His powers include teleportation and dumb luck, as well as awareness of the fourth wall. Cheeks, the Toy Wonder is his stuffed sidekick and his arch-nemesis is a sock named Argh!Yle. Ambush Bug's origin is shrouded in mystery, or possibly too many comic book origin stories. He has related several different versions of his beginnings, most inspired by those of popular superheroes. The most likely story is that Irwin Schwab, a down-and-out average Joe raised on too much television, found the discarded Ambush Bug suit in a back alley dumpster.
