Richard Shaw has been many things in his life. Corporate courier delivering documents. Courageous mid-weight hero from King's Row to Croatoa. Amateur engineer and science enthusiast. Ally and mentor to Moonsprint, a novice Kheldian refugee on Earth. And for 3 minutes... very, very dead.
As Rick's devastated body laid mangled beyond repair, betrayed by his turncoat teammate "The Grit", Moonsprint lept from his then-host to fuse with his friend and partner. Now trapped together in the crippled and pain-riddled remains of a body - the old friends crafted a new, better body of polymers and alloys: new arms, new legs; new hopes, and renewed convictions. A grueling decade has been spent repairing, rebuilding, and regaining strength. Shaw is now a fusion of man, machine, and alien -- taking the fight to The Council and other evil doers....and assisting the next generation of heroes in their war on evil. TAXIBOT SHAW, back in action.
