    In Young Justice 3 a guy named Mick Gurk was instrumental in making Mzyzptlk who he is.

    Its funny, my wife and I watched this very episode last night with the video commentary.
     
    He was never really anybody.  Its just who Mxyzptlk was looking for in his first appearance.

    @spiderknight: seems to be no one in the show, but could be a reference to the mcgurk effect that has to do with illusions and hallucinations which is what superman thought myxy was at first.

    In his first appearance Mister Mxyzptlk walk around yelling for McGurk.. If memory serves is was "McGurk!" and "Where's McGurk" when he runs into the statue of the Thinker he say something along the lines of "There you are" and animates the statue. McGurk is a reference to that first appearance.
