Universe: Earthworm Jim
Debut: Earthworm Jim (SG, 1994)
For most of his life, Jim was just an ordinary earthworm until one day his life was changed forever. A fearsome bounty hunter named Psy-Crow was en route to deliver the Super Suit to Queen Slug-For-A-Butt, but got in a confrontation with another space ship and lost the suit out of an airlock. The suit fell down to Earth, where Jim happened to crawl in and discovered newfound powers granted by the suit, mainly the strength and dexterity of a human.
Jim can be a bit naive and rarely thinks before rushing into battle, but on occasions can be very cunning. He has a rather large romantic infatuation with Princess What's-Her-Name, which usually confuses her, but he never falters in his resolve. Jim resides in a home in the city of Terlawk with Peter Puppy.
