History
In 1941, Golden Man's first sidekick, Bobby, made his debut. Like so many Golden Age sidekicks, he had no real powers; he was just a kid running on borrowed time. That time ran out in 1943.
But in 1957, there was a public outcry as it was discovered Bobby's coffin was empty.
In 1986, a hero named Mr. Net.ropolis made his debut. His exploits made him a well-known hero, but no one's favorite-- few actually saw him, and no one knew who he really was.
In 1998, a Net.ropolis Times reporter named Carl Shepherd had a theory: Mr Net.ropolis was Bobby. Assigned the story by his editor after all the net.heroes anyone wanted were taken, he made plans to track the enigmatic net.hero down. He put a fake ad in the paper for a Mr. Net.ropolis fanclub, which attracted... Golden Man. Golden Man gave a long speech about how much he admired Mr. Net.ropolis but revealed nothing about who he was.
Carl Shepherd finally attracted Mr. Net.ropolis by threatening to throw himself off a bridge. Mr Net.ropolis made it clear that he didn't want fame or admiration, he just wanted to do his job, whether anyone else cared or not.
And he got what he wanted, because no one has heard from him again.
