History

Joe Pineapples was one of the first members of the robot commando unit the ABC Warriors, and is an expert marksman, once described as the best sniper in the world. He joined the Warriors after being kicked out of the elite X-Terminators squad for seducing the wife of a (human) superior officer. Joe assassinated the Volgan robot General Blackblood, who was then rebuilt and reprogrammed to work for the ABC Warriors, and Blackblood has hated him ever since.

Originally, Joe only spoke in code, though he has since adopted standard English. Following the original dissolution of the Warriors, he became first a police firearms instructor on Earth, and then a police detective on the robot free world of Mekka. He has since rejoined the Warriors and has now spent several centuries more or less continually in service with them (aside from a brief period as an assassin for the Terran government).
