Character Corner- Fan Boy

Freakazoid is never alone in his quests. He's backed up by sidekicks, including Hand Man, Foamy the Freakadog, and more. One of the most hilarious one is Fan Boy. This kid is ever celebrity's worst nightmare. An over excited fan who won't shut up! He constantly begs for autographs and asks questions. Yes, this kid, although good-natured, is a bad guy in Freakazoid. In the episode, "And Fan Boy Is His Name", Freakazoid is constantly irritated by Fan Boy. This kid wants to be a super hero. Sure every kid dreams of that, but he goes too far. He puts Freakazoid's torn up mind to the limit. How can he escape something that literally knows his every move? Well he simply show that little Fan Boy someone even cooler than Freakazoid! Who is that person? Well, drum roll please....it's MARK HAMILL! That's right. The actor of Luke Skywalker actually cameos in this episode. Do you hear that? It's the sound of your inner fan boy wanting to come out. Oh well, Fan Boy was a good soul. No doubt an insane soul, but a good one. All he wanted were friends, but his stalker like behavior is frightening. But anyway, Fan Boy will always be in my memory, as the person who scared the Joker (Mark Hamill joke). Even though Nickelodeon has a Fan Boy, there will always be just one Fan Boy. Let actors everywhere fear his name.
