So one thing I remember chuckling an awful lot at is "Kozoman", Fuyutsuki's ridiculous superhero alter-ego. I remember first seeing it in Lucretius's superb Rei Ayanami CYOA. In fat I liked it so much that I used him in my own atrocious CYOA. However, the way it was written in the Rei RP suggested that the concept of "Kozoman" has been around for a long time. However, searching the forum turns up nothing.

Is Kozoman the superhero gag something that's been around for ages, or was Kozoman just a nickname for him that Lucretius picked up and ran with, creating the geriatric defender of justice?

I am pretty sure that Lucretius just made it up (I mean, that CYOA was full of non-cannon stuff that was pure comedic gold) but I can't find anything beyond that. If there is anything I am sure an older member can shed some light.
The other possibility is that he was a rejected Marvel/DC spin-off character. Fuyu can always dream... :fuyu_facepalm:
