Yeah, after awhile I just had to put a kibosh on the search for the team, because I knew there was no way you were going to come up with "Was he member of the crew of the Haunted Tank?"
I really struggled with how to phrase the title stuff, because I wanted to capture the idea that there is a legacy there where the Haunted Tank concept has been reused with other people who could see the ghost, but it was hard to say without saying too much. I tried thinking of a good example of something that might be similar to explain but couldn't come up with anything.

I think the Haunted Tank case is pretty unique. The closest analogy I can think of is Johnny Thunder and Jakeem Thunder with the Thunderbolt Genie.

Yeah. Maybe something like Captain Marvel and other characters weilding the Power of Shazam or something would've worked.

To be fair, all your clues make perfect sense in hindsight. The ability clue and crazy clue put together with the time period clue led me to Haunted Tank, my military question was just for confirmation. I am thinking of a DCU character, I haven't decided on one yet but you guys can go ahead and ask. I should have one by the next time I check this thread

In the next mega-crossover every DC character will be revealed as an aspect of Crazy Jane.
Crisis on Infinite Crazy Janes will involve every DC character dying until we are left with the one, true personality of Jane.

And in a surprise twist, the one true personality isn't the Kay Challis we have seen in Doom Patrol! Instead, it is...

Well, this would be a YES then won't it?   But no.
If not, my next question is Does this character wear a superhero costume?
No. No. Is the character either a super-hero or super-villain of some sort? Yes.

Since you seem to have missed these questions: Is this character a foe of the Justice League? Has this villain ever been part of a group of villains?
