Captain Cornflake
From Encyclopedia Dramatica
Occasionally goes by the handles "FetusMan" and "CarloVonSexron."
In December of 2005, the infamous "Game Gear Man" photo was taken and posted on /b/ and /v/. It was posted frequently over the course of the next few months (mostly by him) but other anonymous started to use it in various situations. It is a popular photo for sticky floods, and was also used in the /b/ raid that crashed 4chan on August 24.
Eventually, threads started to arise combining his face from the photo with dozens of other memes and /b/ catchphrases, or simply other images that were popular at the time. These images spread around /b/, and can be seen in use by random anons on occasion. (Gallery of all known Capn-meme pics)

[edit] Involvement With Invasions
Captain has been involved with many major /b/ raids, either on major levels in terms of crapflooding and organization, or even starting the raids. This behavior is believed to be traced back to his time on Zelda Universe, where he is famous for notable trolling attacks before converting to full-time /b/tard. (A detailed history can be viewed here) Before becoming a full /b/tard, he is known to have singlehandedly invaded many forums on Proboards and InvisionFree. However, this was typically for reasons having to do with hating specific people who posted on ZU, or as favors for online compatriots. Asking around ZU will reveal some fun stories, but nothing major. Still, now you know where the man got his practice at.
He is credited with starting the highly successful Zelda Guide raid, and the initial parts of the Zelda Universe raids. He was also a driving force behind the anti-Furry raids that sparked /b/day, as well as doing his damned best to try and hold the /b/tards together on 7chan rather than let them drift apart to various weaker factions during the ensuing Civil War, going as far as to author the Declaration of /b/ Independence in order to unite Anon.
Because of his habit of "signing" invaded boards with various "CAPN WAS HERE" image floods, he has gained a feared repuation among forums... espcially ones in the Zelda fansite community, which he harbors an intense hatred for due to rampant fanboyism and general niggotry.
Needless to say, he has made many enemies, most of whom reside in the Zelda fansite community. Counter-attacks against him include AIM floods, defamation of him behind his back on other forums (which usually results in that forum being outright crapflooded, thanks to the long list of spies that work for him) and 3-post crapfloods on sites he is known to run.
[edit] Dissappearance from /b/
Though he participates in raids now and then, he isn't as active as he used to be. He has since joined up with various groups of trolls around the internet to sate his need for blood. However, rumor has it that someday soon, he will come back once more to lead Anon down the road to victory. Until then, we can only hope.
[edit] Re-emergence
In the summer of 2007, he was caught destroying a random InvisionFree forum just for the lulz. Since then, he has resurfaced as a member of the Zangaroa trolling group, the militant arm of the VGRC community, which itself is nothing more than a group of Anons fronting itself as a video game website in order to spread its dirty tendrils into other communities to convert internet civilians into functional members of the Internet Hate Machine.
Notable targets of Zangaroa and friends since then have included Windeh, Bill Mitchell, Gurkirat Vig among many people related to Zelda Universe.
While he doesn't frequent Partyvan-IRC, he is frequently available on the Gnug-IRC network to offer advice to fellow Anons seeking it for how to properly run raids, deliver lulz, and all around just be more win in general.
