Earthworm Jim is the titular hero of the Earthworm Jim series.

Bio[edit | edit source]

While en-route to deliver the "Super Suit" developed by the infamous Prof. Monkey-For-A-Head to Queen Slug-For-A-Butt, the intergalactic bounty hunter Psy-Crow inadvertantly dropped his precious freight when his spaceship got into a dogfight with another vessel. Said suit proceeded to land on Planet Earth and, more specifically, on the farm somewhere in the southern United States. As chance would have it, a remarkably unremarkable annelid would crawl into the suit while seeking shelter from a flock of hungry birds.

One sequence of spontaneous hyper-evolution and four additional brains later, Earthworm Jim came to be - a valiant hero whose strong sense of justice (and general unwillingness to part with the suit) made him a bane to villains all across the galaxy. He is known as the sweetheart (and frequent rescuer) of Princess Whats-Her-Name, while Peter the Puppy serves as his heroic sidekick/source of griveous injury.

In 8chanmania[edit | edit source]

Season 1[edit | edit source]

Earthworm Jim has fought in the mania as early as the first season, likely debuting in 8chanmania VII.

He fought in 8chanmania XXXIII, where he notably defeated fellow professional hero Megaman, but lost to Dan Murphy one round later.

Season 2[edit | edit source]

Jim made his return in 8chanmania XXXIX. Having "rescued" Princess Shokora, he made a hasty retreat when she showed her true form and demanded a kiss before dreaded ghost pirate LeChuck turned him into fishing bait.

His last known appearance during 8chanmania LVI was notably short, as the Replica Soldier R-24 caused either him or at least the Super Suit to tap out.
