Now Playing: '90s Superhero Name Generator

Anybody remember comics of the '90s? The bulging biceps, overpowered weaponry, grim anti-heroes and pouches galore? One of my previous one-shots was a tribute/send-up of those bizarre and gaudy adventures. To this end, I created the '90's superhero name generator. Now I'd like to share it with you. Create your own savage warrior straight from the fever dreams of Rob Liefeld himself! Characters with over-the-top names like Steel Soul or Kill Claw! Excelsior!

  1. Blood
  2. Death
  3. Kill
  4. Dread
  5. Iron

  9. Dark
  10. Tek

  1. Wasn't this a part of some Rob Liefield parodying cartoon, back in the 90s? (,zina Wizard magazine, or someplace?)

    1. Wizard did do something like this early on, probably around 1993-1994.

  2. Indeed, they did an entire article on how to create a 90s antihero, complete with name generator, choices of origin and motivation (revenge) cyborg arm and huge guns. It's brilliant.
