History

According to creator Jamas Enright, Obnoxious Ame.rec.a Boy "was created as the incarnation of how non-Americans see Americans": an ignorant, xenophobic blusterer who extolled the ideals of the Usenetted States of Ame.rec.a, even if he wasn't entirely clear on what they were.

"Why would I want to go to another country? I love my country! If you love your country you stay there and you only come to my country if you love it and loving it means speaking the language of the land! English!"
—Obnoxious Ame.rec.a Boy, LNH Comics Presents #55

During the Infinite Leadership Crisis, Obnoxious Ame.rec.a Boy was briefly split into two beings: Obnoxious Ame.rec.a Boy Red and Obnoxious Ame.rec.a Boy Blue, who mirrored the "red state/blue state" divide in the United States following the election of 2000.

Together with the other members of the LNH, Obnoxious Ame.rec.a Boy traveled to the Ultimate Black Hole to defeat the Legion of Net.Villains during the events known as Beige Countdown.

Personality

Abrasive and prejudiced, though with a soft spot. Very much in favor of things that are what he considers Truly Ame.rec.an.

Powers and Abilities

Fearless (or stupid) and a determined fighter, Obnoxious Ame.rec.a Boy has few true super-powers, though he is capable of summoning a nostalgia for an idealized version of the USA that some Ame.rec.ans find charming and many others find nauseating.

"Oh, going to visit some of the real heartland of this fine country?" Obnoxious Ame.rec.a Boy asked, already hearing the faint stirrings of trumpets and violins. "See the fields of wheat waving in the breeze, the cheery faces of farmers as you walk down that dusty road, narrowly avoid being run over by cowboys who are racing desperadoes on their horses, nearly suffer a heart attack trying to eat that 50 pound hunk of steak, and just generally enjoy the hell out of the true pasture that makes this the greatest country on this whole entire planet?" OABoy drew breath as he wiped away a tear.
