A Colonel in the Allied Space Force and captain of the heavy cruiser Cordoba, he also serves as the commander of the USF`s 3rd Inspection Unit. Known for his stubborn and inflexible character. He sees Crushers as little more than rogues and relentlessly pursues Joe and his team under the suspicion of piracy, much to Joe's annoyance.

Crushers: intergalactic Jacks-of-All-Trades who will take on any assignment for the right price. Crusher Joe heads a small team of these outer space troubleshooters that includes the cyborg Talos, the beautiful Alfin, and the obligatory kid sidekick Ricky. A routine assignment escorting a cryogenically frozen heiress to a medical facility goes awry when the girl goes missing and Joe and his team are left holding the bag. It seems space pirates are trying to play the Crushers for patsies, but Joe doesn&rsquo;t take kindly to the setup and tracks the pirates to their home world. The four heroes not only have to rescue their human cargo but take down the pirates in the process, which involves a heck of a lot of space dogfights, explosions, and good old-fashioned hand-to-hand combat. <br><br>
