Nomo

Hideo Nomo (野茂 英雄, Nomo Hideo, born August 31, 1968) is a Japanese retired baseballpitcher who played in Nippon Professional Baseball (NPB) and Major League Baseball(MLB). He achieved early success in his native country, where he played with the Kintetsu Buffaloes from 1990 to 1994. He then exploited a loophole to free himself from his contract, and became the first Japanese major leaguer to permanently relocate to MLB in the United States, debuting with the Los Angeles Dodgers in 1995. Although he was not the first Japanese player in American professional baseball, Nomo is often credited with opening the door for Japanese players in MLB, due to his star status.

Streisand Effect IMO.

Another NM... Norm Macdonald. 

Not sure if he's really a comic book fan...  Anyone familiar with his Fantastic Four riff ??  One of my co-workers thinks he (Reed Richards) is an a-hole.  This skit kind of confirms it.  I think Norm is hilarious.
