In Reality Z-25 31-H, as part of his ultimately botched attempt at a come-back to the public scene, Captain Perfect managed to be named Time's “Dude of the Year”. (COMIC: Meanwhile, On Earth)

Behind the scenes

In the real world, male claimants to Time magazine's “Person of the Year” award are simply referred to as the “Man of the Year”, not “Dude”. It is unclear if Time's fictional counterpart in Reality Z-25 31-H is simply more laid-back across the board, or if Perfect managed to bribe his way into claiming not the actual “Man of the Year” title, but a similar-sounding less official title, banking on the public not realising the difference.
