Biography[]
Shep on Earth
After a mission in space, resulting in blowing up the mothership of his arch-nemesis General Suitor, Shep accidently blows the power to his own spaceship and has to land on Earth until repairs can be made including a simian crystal recharge of .01%, that will take six weeks. He is also told by his superior Zanuck to take a well earned rest as he sees he has been working too hard.
Shep lands in an old abandoned club called the Landing Pad and looks for some accommodation while he tries to make repairs for the ship. He stays in an apartment as a lodger with architect Charlie Wilcox, his wife Jenny and their two children Theresa and Mark.
However he has little knowledge of Earth's customs and sometimes causes problems for all those around him, including a street mime who he frequently tries to help such as getting him out of his 'invisible box', which he mistook for a K-7 space force field.
Despite this, he has helped out the family and others on various occasions, including saving Mark from some careless teenage drivers.
However his peace and quiet is short-lived when Charlie finds his high tech suit and electronic devices and turns them on, unaware that their power sources can be traced.
Shep confronting the bounty hunters
Two intergalactic bounty hunters are sent by Suitor's men to Earth and Shep enlists Charlie's assistance to help him gather the energy supply he needs for his ship so he can leave Earth before they find him.
They find a large supply of pure simian crystals in the office of Charlie's boss Adrian Beltz. The bounty hunters eventually find him and after a fierce fight, Shep returns to the old club to repair his ship. He asks Charlie to go back home and make sure he has left none of his devices behind.
Later Charlie returns, but to his horror, following him is his old enemy General Suitor who had survived the destruction of his mothership and was now holding Charlie and his family hostage. Not wanting to put the family at risk, Shep sets his spaceship to self destruct and surrenders to Suitor if he lets them go.
Shep fighting Mutant Suitor
Suitor reluctantly agrees and begins torturing his enemy, enjoying himself before he kills the warrior. Suddenly Charlie drives back to help and despite Shep's warnings, injures Suitor by crushing his crotch making him turn into a berserk reptilian alien that knocks Charlie unconscious.
Knowing time is running out, Shep takes some electrical wires and stuns Suitor while he and Charlie leave before the club explodes which destroys Suitor for good.
Shep and Charlie exchanging goodbyes
After helping out more people, Shep says goodbye to Charlie and his family and leaves Earth using the bounty hunters' ship. He takes Beltz's secretary, Margie, with him, hoping for a quiet family life of his own.
Shep's Weapons and Equipment[]
Shep's Weapons and Equipment
Being an interstellar warrior, Shep has several types of high tech weaponry and equipment to help in his missions. With some of them, he has to be careful how and when he uses them as their power sources can easily be traced.
- High Tech Suit: Shep's suit is made of strong metal that protects him from certain attacks as well as increase his strength. It easily fits over his black bodysuit and consists of a headband, an armband, an armor plate for the chest and back with shoulder pads, two wired gauntlets with electronic muscle amplifiers, an armor plate for the pelvic area, a holstered belt where he keeps his main laser blaster and two long boots that have a built in rocket propulsion. The right boot has a holster that holds Shep's N-2-10 Aldaryzer (freeze pistol) and the left boot has a scabbard that holds his strong knife.
- Laser Blaster: A handgun that fires a powerful red laser beam from its barrel. Shep has several of these weapons of all sizes with his main one kept in the holstered belt on his suit.
- N-2-10 Aldaryzer: A small yet powerful jet freeze pistol that can keep the chosen victim frozen for at least 20 minutes. As a side effect, once the freezing has worn off, the victim will receive a temporary headache.
- Knife: A weapon with a sharp blade that can slice through anything, include the hanging cable of a lift.
- Limpet Mines: Electronic explosives shaped like hand grenades that can be set off by a certain timed fuse and cause great devastation.
- Transparency Visor: A special device that can see through walls and zero in on a particular place.
- Homing Controller: A device that has flexible pointers that work the same way as a compass. It can zero in on a certain power source. The signal gets stronger, the closer the controller is to the source.

Trivia[]
- It is never revealed where Shep came from, but as he knows nothing about Earth's customs at first, is called an alien warrior by Charlie twice and uses the term inner-planetary as apposed to the term intergalactic, it is possible that he is from another planet.
