Random information on the term “Prankster”:

Peter Cannon, Thunderbolt is a fictional superhero character originally published by Charlton Comics.

Created by Pete Morisi, the character debuted in Peter Cannon … Thunderbolt #1 (Jan. 1966), part of Charlton editor Dick Giordano’s “Action Heroes” superhero line. The series then took over the numbering of the defunct title Son of Vulcan, and ran from issue #51 through #60 (March/April 1966 – November 1967), after which Pete Morisi, in addition to comic book work a New York City Police Department officer and time-pressed with police duties, left the title, which was canceled along with the rest of Charlton’s “Action Heroes” comics line.

There were several backup series in Thunderbolt. “The Sentinels”, by Gary Friedrich (writing his first superhero stories) and penciler-inker Sam Grainger, appeared in #54–59, and #60 had the Prankster, written by Dennis O’Neil with art by Jim Aparo.

Morisi, who’d done work for Lev Gleason Publications in 1940s, reported in Comic Book Artist #9 (August 2000) that he had attempted to buy the rights to 1940s superhero Daredevil in the early 1960s. Gleason gave him his okay, but the character’s primary writer-artist, Charles Biro, balked, requesting a percentage of future profits. Morisi declined and went on to create Thunderbolt in a scaled-down version of that Daredevil’s symmetrically divided, red-and-blue costume.

Random information on the term “IMP”:

An imp is a European mythological being similar to a fairy or demon, frequently described in folklore and superstition. The word may perhaps derive from the term ympe, used to denote a young grafted tree.

Imps are often described as troublesome and mischievous more than seriously threatening or dangerous, and as lesser beings rather than more important supernatural beings. The attendants of the devil are sometimes described as imps. They are usually described as lively and having small stature.

The Old English noun impa meant a young shoot or scion of a plant or tree, and later came to mean the scion of a noble house, or a child in general. Starting in the 16th century, it was often used in expressions like “imps of serpents”, “imp of hell”, “imp of the devil”, and so on; and by the 17th century, it came to mean a small demon, a familiar of a witch. The Old English noun and associated verb impian appear to come from an unattested Late Latin term *emputa (impotus is attested in the Salic law), the neuter plural of Greek ἔμϕυτος ‘natural, implanted, grafted’.
