Who is Earthworm Jim?[]
Of all the video game characters ever created, Earthworm Jim is one of the few who may very well have a genre all to himself. Anyone can guess that he's an earthworm, but could anyone who has never played an Earthworm Jim title know about Jim's Power Suit, his love for cows, his fear of aliens, his huge arsenal of weapons, his hilarious voice acting, or his legendary battles with gigantic balls of snot?
No? Didn't think so. Earthworm Jim is one of those characters who is so damned off the wall that both he and his games manage to mix a ton of random insanity together to deliver an amazing, funny product to its audience. I say again, where else will you find a worm that rescues cows from aliens and battles gigantic balls of snot? That kicks ass! It's this type of random insanity that has made Earthworm Jim one of the most likeable characters of all time, and even though he hasn't had the biggest career in the gaming industry, his appearances will never be forgotten among those who have played his games.

Everyone knew that Earthworm Jim had no chance of even doing well against Mega Man, but then again, no one really cared. Earthworm Jim is one of those characters who is so beloved that even in an embarrassing loss, everyone was glad that he was even in a match in the first place. His one match with Mega Man, even though it may likely be the only match he is ever involved in, was more a celebration of Jim finally making the field than it was a mourning of his loss. It must be nice to be so damned cool that your own fans are happy even when you lose.
