It's not "Paranoia" if they really ARE after you! Here we have Megavolt and
Quackerjack as "Troubleshooters" from the role-playing game "Paranoia". The
universe of that game would take too long to explain here, but TRUST me, they
do both fit in quite well, especially Megavolt, who is almost MADE for the
Paranoia universe it seems. It's a darkly humourous futuristic society, full
of wacky inventions and crazed robots and mutants, but also has very strict
rules--which is why I had to tone down Quackerjack's jester outfit (if he wore
ALL the colours it has, he'd get shot!) But notice it still looks,
well..._jester_ ish! :P Megavolt's yellow-clearance Alpha Complex-style jumpsuit
is a nice look on him, or maybe it's just me. And notice Quacky's rocket-powered
pogo stick! ;)

to read a thing I wrote up about it, complete with character-bios for Megavolt and Quackerjack's characters. It won't tell you EVERYTHING
about life in Alpha Complex, but should give you a good idea to go on. If you get curious from reading that and want to find out more, well, then...stop
by your local gaming/comic book store and check the game out. You just might like it. ;))
