Ambush Bug first appeared in ''ComicBook/DCComicsPresents'' #52 (December, 1982). Originally he appeared as a minor foe of ComicBook/{{Superman}}, before deciding to become a superhero himself, though Ambush Bug proves himself utterly incompetent at the job. As time went on, his appearances became increasingly in-jokey, FourthWall breaking, satirical and surreal. As a generally FunPersonified character, he wasn't seen much during the pits of UsefulNotes/TheDarkAgeOfComicBooks, and though he is rarely used by other writers, he still exists in the DC Universe. He became a supporting character in Keith Giffen's ComicBook/DoomPatrol.

Given Giffen's eventual passing, it truly was the final Ambush Bug story he wrote in his lifetime.

* SuperHeroOrigin: Parodies Franchise/{{Superman}}'s. The greatest [[TheDandy dandy]] in an alien world, Brum-El, decides to discard a chain letter, and as a result, discovers his planet is going to be hit by a swarm of meteorites which will kill all life. Against [[IgnoredExpert the belief of all experts]], he creates a rocket... to save his wardrobe. And then it turns out the meteorites ''really'' were harmless, leaving the man naked and humiliated. And then a [[ComicBook/SpiderMan giant radioactive space spider]] loots the rocket before accidentally nudging it to Earth, where it crashes, leaving one of the rocket's two remaining contents - a lime green suit - stuck in the antenna of a random Metropolis loser. The other item? ''A sentient sock''. Who immediately becomes a Doctor Doom parody, angry at being left behind.

* BitingTheHandHumor: His miniseries ''Ambush Bug: Year None'' mocks several concepts that were common in DC Comics titles at the time and also features tons of jokes at the expense of DC Comics' then editor-in-chief Dan [=DiDio=], the most flagrant being that one part depicts [=DiDio=] as a narcissistic and deluded supervillain who poses a serious threat to the DC Universe.
