STARRING Al "The Beast" Bestardi
STATUS Hitman for mobster Don Luigi Sarcoma. Al is literally married to the mob, in the vicious form of the Don's only legitimate offspring, Velma.
DATELINE 2018 AD
LOCATION Chi-Town has been a traditional stronghold for organised crime since the days of another notorious Al, better known as Mr Capone to his acquaintances. But two decades in the future the mobs have become almost untouchable...
WEAPONRY Anything he can get his hands on, really. Al is a ruthless killer and leg-breaker
SOUNDBITE "You better freakin' believe it!"
TRADEMARK A curious taste for eye-poppingly garish ties
PARTNERS Al is constantly accompanied by his friend Sal. Indeed, they spend more time together than Al does with his wife Velma. But don't go thinking nothing about that - if you were married to Velma, you'd do the same too.
BACKSTORY Four years ago the Don made Al an offer he couldn't refuse - produce a grandson to inherit the Don's empire or take up swimming whilst wearing concrete boots. Sadly for Al, Velma refused to interrupt her show business career for child-bearing, leaving Al with only one option - have the baby himself!.
