Old Nobody is the character of another comic from the same time period, by Clifton Meek. Meek apparently ghost-wrote a few Everett True comics as well. It seems like Nobody's gimmick started off with more or less the exact same first panel as Everett comics, but Nobody's thing would be that he would never actually challenge the problem because he's "nobody"
Oh, cool, there's an Everett reference in Old Nobody on the page you linked.
Two, in fact.

OOOH!! Mystery solved! I'd tried searching, but it turns out the terms I should have used were "meek nobody comics". Thanks!
I like how they always have the exact same punchline, you don't even need the second panel
