Yeah, maybe could've used a couple of takes to iron out some flubs but apart from that pretty funny (the comments are right though, if he's aiming for sidekick he needs to take the 'Doctor' out of his name - 'Nurse DreadFul' might work better for example).
And if he literally just knocked it off (which would explain the flubs) then it's a nice bit of work.
While you're there can you explain why deleted posts stay on the livejournal feed? Maybe it's by design, I don't know, but it does mean that if, say, something is deleted because it's spoilerific, us LJers get spoiled anyway. Thanks.
I can take a look but I think that the LJ feed doesn't remove stuff deleted from the parent RSS feed and it also duplicates posts that are edited after their original posting.
He could be Resident Dreadful. Don't know if it works the same way on t'other side of the pond, but here being a Resident is the step below being a full-fledged doctor. And it has that nice callback to Resident Evil. Which I never before realized involved playing doctor.

How about "Dreadful Intern"? Or maybe it should be more descriptive. Or give him a name, like sidekicks usually have. Maybe he could be a specialist, too. I've got it! How about "Dreadful Eddie, the Terrorist Phlebotomist"?
...Of course, "Eddie" would be a nom du crime. If he was really named Ed it would kind of give away the whole secret identity thing. And drawing blood is pretty gross, so that might scare the kids too much, not that they'd know what a phlebotomist is. But he'd have needles. Needles are scary. Maybe he could just have gauze and those rubber hose things that they tie your arm up with. Those can sting if you snap them hard.
The image of a super-villain that goes around snapping surgical tubing at people is going to have me smiling all night ;). Immature Locker-Room Man ! (TM ;).
How about Professor DreadFul? "The Evil Adventures of Doctor Horrible and His Assistant, Professor DreadFul!" Hmm. I don't know. I'd lose the capitalization of the F though, but that's me.
Dredful Mellow,
He's a Dreadful Fellow
Beware his Dreadful Bellow, cause you can't deny
that when you get in a pickle
his assistance isn't fickle
the only other thing that rhymes with this
is probably Travis Bickle
in his cab, he drives!
He pokes you with his rusty needle
sixteen times before he finds the vein
His transfusions may not be the right blood type
but the plasma's got 93 octane

(I'm not sure if that's exactly equivalent to a Resident, but it seems fairly appropriate. ;)
