History

Ljundji is a yabon spirit from the realm of Alcheringa, also known as the Dreamtime. He was cursed by Marmoo to be stuck in a single shape. During unknown events, he became partnered with Bruce Bottersnike-Gumble, AKA Chinese Guy.

In meta-continuity, Dave Van Domelen dropped his Superguy characters Crazy Guy and Louie in for a brief cameo gag during the Birth of a Villain cascade. Other writers, not realizing that he didn't mean to make the character a part of the ongoing storyline, took the appearance and ran with it. Confusion reigned until Saxon Brenton, with Dave's help, wrote a chapter revealing that Chinese Guy and Lenny were Crazy Guy and Louie's counterparts from the Looniverse, come to join in the fight against Vector.

Since Bruce died during Flame Wars IV, Lenny has been working on and off with the LNH.
