The littlest superhero of all

While looking through the McSweeney's archives I noticed a list entitled, "Actual Superheroes from the Pages of International and Obscure Comic Books Who Are Unlikely to See Their Origin Stories Developed into Movies." Immediately I thought, I wonder if Matter-Eater Lad is on the list. And SURE ENOUGH, who has the honor of closing up the list but the boy (or probably late-teenager, stupid DC Justice League naming conventions) whose power was to eat anything? Matter-Eater Lad, I am so proud of you.
