Ambush Bug is unusual among comic characters in that he knows he is in a comic

To reflect this, Ambush Bug has the following traits

Real World: When drawing line of fire, Ambush Bug ignores all terrain printed on the map.
Reasoning: Seriously, it is flat. How can that get in his way? Other characters do, but they are actually there! He does not ignore 3D tokens

Comic Book Character: If Ambush Bug has no tokens on him at the beginning of the turn, he may use Regeneration as a free action during that turn. He may not be assigned feats requiring Regeneration as a prerequisite.
Reasoning: Ambush Bug has been reduced to piles of bloody bones and he was fine a few panels later

PUNishment: When Ambush Bug makes a close combat attack, he may attempt to make a pun about who he is about to attack. If opponent snickers or laughs at said pun, Ambush Bug gains +2 Attack and +2 Damage for the attack
Reasoning: I always wanted to hit a Homer.

He now has a special power under attack.
Whoop! Give Ambush Bug a power action. He can then use Phasing/Teleport as a free action. At any point during the movement Ambush Bug may use Force Blast as a free action against an adjacent character in a square of elevated terrain that has at least one border of that terrain in their square. The direction of the knock back must always be off the elevated terrain. Ambush Bug may use any remaining movement after resolving the Force Blast.
Reasoning: In his early days, the Buggie pushed a lot of people off buildings, platforms, etc.

This should be the DC version of the Stan Lee piece, and he needs a Darksied archenemy.
