Nah- I vote Porkins for Rik! The poor guy never gets a break and would probably love a vacation in Mos Hawaii (where you'll never find a more wretched hive of surfers and scantilly-clad females)!

Though in theory Han who make a better Magnum and Luke a better Rik. Plus, 'Solo, P.I.' a good ring to it.

Actually, I'd never heard of the character named Masters from Magnum PI. That show was a bit before my time.

And if you say it as a single word... "solopi"... it sounds either like a junker car or lunchmeat. Your choice.

Works for me... BUT it could be a legal firm too: Injured at work? Accidents? Wounded in Rebel attacks? Call the law offices of Solopi and Spam, Empire attourneys at law...

CHALTAB, WHEN "WRITING" MY CARTOON CHARACTER YOU SHOULD ENVISION A MORE SNAKE EYES TYPE CHARACTER. IN REAL LIFE I STUDIED NINJUTSU AND JUDO. I DON'T USE GUNS. I LIKE TO KEEP THINGS UP CLOSE AND PERSONAL. I'M A MASTER OF EDGED WEAPONS AND THE BO (STAFF). AS I'M HALF CHEROKEE (THE OTHER HALF BEING IRISH) I'M EVEN PROFICIENT WITH A TOMAHAWK. I CAN USE A GUN AS MY FIRING RANGE TARGETS WILL PROVE, BUT I JUST DON'T LIKE THEM. THE LAST TIME WE DISCUSSED THE "CARTOON" WE WANTED MORE REALISM TO IT. KEEP IT EARTH BOUND.

1)Snake Eyes? That is a gambling term, or a movie archetype?

2)I'll work on getting you the bow staff and tomahawks. I don't work well with Hand to Hand, though.

3)Earth is in a different galaxy. Besides, nothing good ever happens here!

Magler Brothers Cartoon Series: Season 2, Episode 3... The Wrath of John Parte Dos

Last time on Mangler Brothers: A series of clips shows the plot, Warbler looking for the missing Motti SoL, and Dayv and Bossk fighting John. The camera pans back as John's head explodes into an RE4 rip-off monster, complete with eye-in-its mouth and sharp teeth! The creature leaps into the air and comes down on the injured Manglers...

*Theme Song*

After the theme song, we see Monster-John leap to attack again, followed by a cut of the Bossk and Dayv reacting to the assautl. They role out of the way, just as John come down, driving a spike, jutting from where his fist used to be, into the ground where Dayv's head was moments before. The two unload the pitance of ammo they have left and role away, Dodging Violent flailing and random attacks from John. A large balcony that John destroyed from his house has a metal pole jutting out, half broken off the rail. Dayv sees it and has a..

*flashback*

A montage of scenes where Dayv is training in Ninjitsu and Judo, and with a Bo Staff, in a Dojo. The hitman's armor is replaced by gui and the face is in shadow, but the voice is clearly Dayv. "Thank you, Master," he says to the sensei as the flashback ends.

*present*

Psycho Dayv grabs the metal and uses his uber-combatknife to sever the metal pole. He scans it quickly, revealing that the center of the staff is made of Danielbium, a near-unbreakable metal used in the construction of the Mangler Mobile, only found in an incredibly thick-skulled life form on the planet Forum. Convienient, he says to himself. Wielding the bo, he attacks John, who has been occupied trying to thrash Bossk. Scoring several damaging blows, Dayv strikes a combat pose with the bo and takes a brief rest as the comercial fades in...( the "Last Time" took up a good 2:30)

When we return, whe see John enraged that Dayv hurt him, and he lashes his long alien neck at the Original Mangler, trying to litterally bite his head off. The Monster-John reiceves several more rude awakenings as Dayv beats the crap out of him with the bo, but the Monster is taking blows that would kill a man with ease and Dayv is growing fatigued... (hey, he was thrown from a second story window!)

Dayv is tripped by a new apendage juting from MJ's left shoulder, and can't get up fast enough to avoid the incoming spike of death... When Bossk flies in from off screne, thrashing the beast with Dayv's combat knife... He presses a button and the thick metal of the blade suddenly stretches into a big sword, which Bossk attacks with again...
Only to be knocked flat on his face by the aforementioned shoulder apendage... Then it thrashes the crap out of Bossk, knocking him sensless. The creature looms over the two assassins, ready for the kill...

*second commercial* I love cliffhangers...

MJ lunges at the Manglers, when, offscrene, several incredbly powerful sounding Gunshots are heard., and blood of various colors goes flying from within the monster as bullets slam into him with enough force to break his lunge...
Insert Warbler, holding two Warbsps and Motti with dual revolvers and a belt full of Dessert Eagle pistols...
The Mangler Brothers share some quick greetins, and Warbler gives Bossk and Dayv some stimulants to keep them going.... Then the newcomers unload on MJ, clearly weakening the beast. Dayv and Bossk take turns hitting him with the bo and cutting him with the knife-cum-sword, until the long-neck-monster goes down. and Bossk lops of his head as Dayv impales it on the edge of the bo...

Insert: Electronic money transaction on a computer screen, from the account of Bill Shakespear to the Mangler's account, as the Mangler Mobile pulls away from Enooitat to make the long flight home...

"3)Earth is in a different galaxy."

Perhaps in your case...

<span class=“Italics”>MeBeJedi: Sadly, I believe the prequels are beyond repair.
<span class=“Bold”>JediRandy: They’re certainly beyond any repair you’re capable of making.</span></span>

<span class=“Italics”>MeBeJedi: You aren’t one of us.
<span class=“Bold”>Go-Mer-Tonic: I can’t say I find that very disappointing.</span></span>

<span class=“Italics”>JediRandy: I won’t suck as much as a fan edit.</span>

Bossk, you know we're getting old when we both get the reference, Chaltab doesn't and you just barely beat me to the punch with essentially the same answer.

The eighties GI Joe had died out in favor of the TMNT by the time I was old enough to understand TV.

But do you remember G.I. Joe issues 27 & 28 ("The Origin of Snake-Eyes" parts 1 & 2)? Those were some great comics. Back when G.I. Joe was cool.
