The Shaggy Man, goofy name and all, used to be the opponent that scared the entire Justice League. Stronger than silver-age Supes, almost as durable and even when you managed to damage SM it'd just instantly heal.
I don't think the JLA ever managed to actually beat the Shaggy Man. They'd bury it in pieces so that it'd take months or years to reassemble. Last I saw him was in Morrison's JLA run where they teleported it to some remote asteroid and left it stranded in deep space.
Love this hairy oaf.
