Ladies and Gentlemen! In our squared circular triangle of the mind today we find two less than titanic tricksters facing off for foppish supremacy.

In the orange corner, we have Mr. Mxyzptlk, (and shame, SHAME on me for not being able to spell his name at first), mystical imp from the Fifth Dimension and perpetrator of many a prank against DC's archetypical, prototypical, stereotypical superhero Superman. Whether it's animating giant teddy bears or making candy floss rain from the sky, he's the archetypical pain in the tuckuss with no actual harful intent.

In the Green corner is the Impossible Man. Last survivor of the planet Popup, this emerald skinned troublemaker has bedevilled the Fantastic Four, the New Mutants, Excalibur, Spider Woman, and a panoply of other spandex clad citizens of Earth 616. He does a great Galactus, too.

Now! The time has come for these two crown princes of superheroic pestilence will be crowned king, and who will be demoted to court jester?

You! Make! The! Call!

Actually, in one of the Byrne issues of Superman, Mxy decides he's done in Metropolis and pops to another dimension. While the art hides enough to make it legal, the clear implication is that Mxy IS the Impossible Man.
