I proposed this as a superhero character in my college video production class – Jizzman – a super masturbator wih Super Sperm. Could shoot out threads that he could climb, or that could entangle criminals. He LOVED his work! Jizzman was a loner! ---

I’m the creator of **Green Arrow** – Champion of all who must turn left! Along with his trusty sidekick **Crosswalk** , they roam the countryside ridding us of bad drivers and helping little old ladies turn left. I created him for an assignment I had to do in my Theatre Design class back when I was a Theatre Arts major. Granted, I was more than a little “inspired” by the Green Lantern.
