Brand New Blogger, Same Great Taste

OK, so I made the switch to the new Blogger. I've been putting it off, but it's got some shiny new features so I just could resist. That and the page that said "You must upgrade."

Most of my loyal readers (or as I like to call them, Junior Intergalactic Gladiators) have been around for quite a while, but some of you may not know who the all contributors here are. This gives me the perfect opportunity to introduce you to the members on this blog. See? what a great segue!


Jon the Intergalactic Gladiator
Hometown: Chicago Illinois, Earth
Where He Works: Intergalactic Gladiating Entertainment on Planet Hacknor.
When he's not performing for the IGE Jon could be taking on space zombies, an evil galactic overlord, or singing at the Hero Lounge. Jon became an Intergalactic Gladiator to save his home planet, something the people of Earth will likely never know.


Private William Hudson
Hometown: Fort Worth Texas, Earth
Base of Operations: Hacknor Colonial Marine Detachment, the starship Sulaco
Ever since he was visited by, and possibly abducted and probed by, alien visitors, all Hudson wanted to be was a Colonial Marine. Loyal to a fault, Hudson can be trusted to kill all the giant bugs in the immediate area, unless he is in the middle of a nervous breakdown, of course.


Queen Galacta IX
Home Planet: Throneworld
Base of Operations: The Citadel of Hope
Queen Galacta is the successor to her father, the great King Galacton IX, and was granted sovereignty over the galaxy by the Galactic Charter (available to read at Galactic Libraries everywhere). Though she might occasionally show some naiveté towards the common beings, she cares for them deeply, rules over them justly, and protects them from her brother Galactor the Evil Galactic Overlord.


Jo Jo the Monkeyboy
Home Planet: Monkekbok
Current Location: Second Banana Heaven
After graduating at the top of his class at the Monkekbok Institute for Training Sidekicks, Jo Jo was Jon’s loyal comedy relief sidekick until his face was disintegrated by an energy weapon illegally brought into the area during an IGE match. His known relatives include his brother Mojo, his father Jo Jo Sr., and Uncle Schlocky. Though he has gone to the great beyond, Jo Jo does occasionally show up in our plane of existence, proving that you just can't keep a good Monkeyboy down.

That is all that we have for today. Tune in next time where we will take a look at some more of the characters that have been found here.
