character info under the cut
Noah Kuttler was one of Barbara Gordon's closest friends throughout her middle and high school years. A fandom geek and an excellent hacker, he developed a tool that would help him determine the physical statistics of real-life superheroes. This information was then printed into zines, which he shared with his fellow fanboy for record-keeping purposes.
This passion turned to obsession, however, as his peers regularly doubted, criticized, and even stole from his work. Trying to keep his project afloat, Kuttler began to put himself in harm's way by stepping into hero fights, desperate to put something substantial on them to print.
Eventually, collateral damage from an encounter with Superman left Kuttler grievously injured, requiring the removal of both his left arm and his voice box to save his life.
Rather than acknowledge the limitations of his idols -- or even his own shortcomings -- Kuttler became antagonistic and bitter towards the very concept of heroes, an attitude aggravated by the delusions and loss he suffered after the accident.
After a brief period of freelance work, Kuttler now works for the Penguin under the pseudonym "Calculator", remotely providing villains with vital information on how to take out down the caped crusader and any number of his so-called friends.

I think it’s so funny during the exchange on the balloon when sokka is like, “yeah being good at war seems to run in the family,” and zuko gets all defensive and goes, “hold on, not everyone is like that!” and at first sokka thinks he’s talking about himself, but then zuko reveals that he’s talking about his uncle. and sokka just has to sit there mentally calculating whether it would be a good idea to bring up the fact that historically, his uncle is great at war. if i had to attempt to transcribe his inner monologue in that moment it would just be “don’t bring up the dragon of the west don’t bring up the dragon of the west this guy is willingly sacrificing his life for your self-indulgent suicide mission you need him on your side don’t bring up the dragon of the west…” at which point he then looks back up at zuko and says thru gritted teeth, “haha yeah. no, cuz like, totally. for sure.”
