The naming business is a tricky one. For every Firestorm, The Nuclear Man, there are three Speedball, The Masked Marvels. Even if you’re in the prosaic territory of Something-Man, that something is important, and you can’t be awesome if your doctorate is in gravy. Heck, Mal Reynolds wouldn’t be the cool leather pants pirate fellow that we all know and love if he was named Sidney Snotpockets. leading us to today’s nomenclatural query…
The MS-QOTD (pronounced, as always, “misquoted”) thinks that Top 10’s Officer Slipstream Phoenix takes the cake for me, even though I don’t like him much, and X-Factor’s Butterfly (who knows stuff) is pretty top-notch as well, asking: What fictional character has the BEST codename of them all?

That would probably be Optimus Prime.
I mean, it does kinda say it all – and in a badass way.
