One Week by BNL...

"Hold it now and watch the hoodwink
'Cause I make you stop, think -
You'll think you're looking at Aquaman
I summon fish to the dish, although I like the chalet swiss..."

Tear in Your Hand by Tori Amos...

"Me and Neil'll be hanging out with the Dream King..."

...and, ahem, Superman by Black Lace.

Pop Will Eat Itself Can U Dig It

We dig the Furry Freak Brothers and the Twilight Zone,
We dig Marvel and D.C., we dig Run-DMC,
We dig Renegade Soundwave and AC/DC
(Can U dig it?)
CHORUS
Bruce Wayne auf weidersehn,
Dirty Harry, Make my day,
Terminator, hit the north,
Alan Moore knows the score,
Riffs? Yeah! Can U dig it?
Riffs? Yeah! Can U dig it?
We dig Optimus Prime and not Galvetron,
We dig The Leader of the Pack and the Do-Run-Run,
Spinderella and Bruce Lee, The Bad and the Ugly,
V for Vendetta and Into the Groovy.

You bastard! I can't get this song out of my head and am eerily drawn back to it again and again!
Gotta first name? Yeeah!

Is it a comic character though? (Malone I mean, not Burt Reynolds)
