Notes:
- Obnoxio originally served as the host of Crazy magazine, Marvel's answer to Mad and Cracked. He replaced Irving Nebbish around Crazy Magazine #65 and remained as host until the magazine's demise in April 1983.
- Obnoxio was born to a father who walked out before his birth and a mother who abandoned him by locking him inside a chest and dropping it in a frozen lake. He went to live with his aunt in Kansas alongside his cousin Dorothy and her dog Toto, whom Obnoxio despised. During his infancy he began to develop his clown look, which would remain unchanged throughout his life. He briefly worked as a Nebraska senator before they discovered he lied about his age. He then enrolled in Clown school, but finished bottom of his class, so he began working odd jobs, including as a doorman at a homeless shelter. Having nothing to his name, he considered ending it all until he was approached by Stan Lee who offered him a job working for Marvel Comics on Crazy Magazine. During this upswing in his life, he also ran for President of the United States on a platform that included a Fat Tax and making all the unemployed run for office to give them a job for doing nothing.
