Character Bio

Originating in 1985 in the films of Troma Entertainment and later starring in a short-lived animated television series, The Toxic Avenger, also known as Toxie, made his game debut in 1992's Toxic Crusaders. Once known only as Melvin Junko, a chance encounter with a vat of Grossolium 90 mutated the mild-mannered nerd into a lumpy, but loveable, superhero. In Toxic Crusaders he is called upon to save the peaceful town of Tromaville from the polluting influence of the villainous Dr. Killemoff. ~ Richard Gilliam, All Game Guide
