Best name-juggle
Which individual and/or team gets altered the most when you rearrange the component parts of their name?
For instance, 'The Strange Doctor', to me, no longer conjures up a cool guy in a velvet jacket and John Lennon specs who rattles off spells. Instead, I picture a grubby perv with a stethoscope who carries out weird medical experiments on people.
Or 'The American League of Justice' - less of a superhero crime-fighting unit, and more of a right-wing, hood-wearing gang of bigots who round up undesirables and lock them in camps.
By the way, I realise it doesn't work for 'monos' like Hulk.
Come on , Riv. Give it your best shot.

Man Bat.
Instead of a man who dresses up as a bat, he's a mutated man who's taken on bat characteristics.

Good one. The 'man' suffix has lots of potential.
Man-iron...the hideous, sentient blob of molten metal that rages against the injustice that led to its horrible smelting accident many years ago. It gained the power of thought, but it lost the power of...pity! Run from the glowing terror that is...MAN-IRON!

Moth Killer - a less impressive villain than Croc Killer.
Gold Booster - now he just steals gold.
Savage vandal - he wrecks property and he's vicious.
Pin King - sounds like instead of running a criminal empire he runs a discount store selling cheap pins.
Doom Doctor - he's the doctor who gives people the bad news

Brilliant, especially Pin King.
Mariner Sub - low-grade, fish-based sandwich filling
Furious Nick - less of a leader of a major intelligence organisation , and more of a lunatic prone to shouty outbursts.
Devil-dare: doesn't so much fight crime, as challenge people to do slightly 'naughty' things and then run away giggling
