WHAT THE HECK?!

I can remember the day Earthworm Jim for the SNES was released. I had been following it on Nintendo Power, and the game just seemed wicked. I then was bummed out when the SNES version was a half-assed port of the Genesis version, even going as far as missing an entire level. The sequel more than made up for it, and the SNES version was even superior in every way to the Genesis one: better graphics, better music, and more levels. The faults of the original's release on my favorite console of all time doesn't change the fact that Earthworm Jim is one of the best game characters ever made. Who-the-heck would have thought of creating an Earthworm character for a game? Not me. What's there not to like? There's a beefed-up Earthworm for a main character and his arch nemesis a... CAT. Yes. A CAT. A cat named Evil. Where does this cat reside? PLANET HECK. Come on. It just oozes with crazy epic badass, and because of that our very own Cap'n has illustrated a great header with Jim's climbing outta Heck. Enjoy the wallpaper from the N+ design gallery!
