Ahhh, ole Raspy... Rasputin is based off... Ty Cobb. C'MON! I have very fond memories of this green robed bastard. I remember as a kid using him a lot, including wiping the floor with all of my older bro's friends at the super nintendo version... yes I did play one mean Rasputin back in the day. For '92, his yellow giant hand squeeze throw was MIND BLOWING! Rasputin is infamous for his rather... open-minded personality. And his Desperation Move (DM) 'The Secret Garden' in WHP sealed his place in fighting game history. It is unblockable, so you better jump out of the way, stop him, or suffer the most ... well, you'll see it in the video. There's nothing I like better than to end a match with his DM and watch ADK's aftershock affect in full throttle. Rasputin's place in fighting game history does not merely end there.

(note. The sound is delayed) Neo Dio in action from the 1995 2D Neo Geo fighter 'World Heroes Perfect.' His first appearance came in 1993's WH 2 where he was deemed one of the cheapest bosses...
J. Carn, AKA Julius Carn, was based off Genghis Khan. He's a character that grew on me over time. I didn't like him much in the original World Heroes, but as the series advanced the more and more...
The sole new fighter in Perfect, Gokuu, based off the Monkey King fable of the East (AKA 'Journey to the West') was a little-seen character. He doesn't pop up unless you run through some rather...
Jack was one of three new fighters introduced in World Heroes 2 Jet (1994). He was based off Jack the Ripper, but many people will tell you he was a basic rip-off of Street Fighter 2's Vega (AKA...
J. Max, AKA Johnny Maximum, debut in 'World Heroes 2' in 1993. He was arguably the most unique 'Shoto' fighter of all time, Shoto meaning 'Ryu-like fighter' in that J.Max had a projectile and a...
Ahhh Brocken. I have a personal fondness for this cat, not only was he the first World Hero I ever selected, but he's a freaking super robot! It's like ADK combined M. Bison with Dhalsim. I have...
Fuuma was to World Heroes what Ken Masters was to Street Fighter II. Like Ken, he wore red (to symbolize his fiery passion for life and fighting) and he was the 'eternal' rival of the game's main...
Most of the WH characters were based off myths, famous people, what have you. Muscle Power appeared in the first World Heroes game (1992) inspired by "The Immortal" Hulk Hogan. I never used him...
