Though the name sounds like something you'd expect from a Kick-Ass comic - or maybe Mystery Men - Whizzer is a genuine Marvel Comics character and has absolutely nothing to do with urination.

Far from the portly Robert Coleman of Jessica Jones, the comics version - actually called Robert Frank - was a speedster who first appeared under the Timely Comics banner in USA Comics #1 in 1941.

Coleman's yellow hoody in the show is clearly a nod to the fact that the character wore a yellow suit and blue trunks on the page.
