Biker Mice from Mars (1993)



Biker Mice from Mars was an animated science fiction program created by Rick Ungar in conjunction with Marvel Productions. It was based on the three-issue Biker Mice from Mars comic book series, published by Marvel Comics and released in tandem with the premiere of the series. The series premiered in September of 1993 and aired on the UPN network for three seasons spanning a total of sixty-five episodes. The series was revived in 2006 with a production of twenty-six new episodes. The plot of Biker Mice from Mars centered around three anthropomorphic mouse motorcyclists named Throttle, Modo, and Vinnie who escaped from their home planet Mars following a war perpetuated by a conquering race known as the Plutarkians. They came to Earth where they befriended a garage owner named Charlene "Charley" Davidson (an obvious pun on motorcycle manufacturer Harley Davidson) and set up shop at the Last Chance Garage in Chicago, Illinois. The bikers frequently found themselves at odds with the Plutarkian industrialist Lawrence Limburger and his dimwitted henchman Greasepit.
