Spencer D. Bum is a clone of The Spoony One made by Linkara. Dr. Insano complains that the character of the bum is copyrighted and shouldn't be used. (He is of course talking about Chester A. Bum.) Insano then suggests that they get rid of the other one... permanently! Spoony and Spencer just ignore him. As Spencer was asking passing bystanders for change one day, Black Lantern Spoony finds him and rips out his heart, killing him.
