hmmmmm. This is a tough one. well, not really. But Space Ghost's history..........hmmmmm......There is no really significant events there. I tend to think of Space Ghost's existence as just sorta like 'Natural Born Killers', or to a lesser extent 'Lost Highway' or a Monty Python sketch, in that much like those works, his life is really just a bunch of events at random stapled together and called a 'life'. Well, I never finished watching 'Lost Highway', but Space Ghost's life is really in the style of 'Natural Born Killers', and 'Monty Python'. Just unrelated events/sketches thrown together at random. Well, 'Killers' had a plot, but....y'know. All the different camera techniques, and perspectives, and....nevermind. But anyway, here are some of the events.........
Circa mid 90's: Space Ghost appears in Gothametropolis New York's disco rave scene in the ever popular "Amphetamines Ball" as regular club member. He begins popping all over the town, in such places as "The Coffee Shop With No Name" and begins publishing the Gothametropolis York Village Weekly News, a cross between the New York Times, the Enquirer, and Cracked magazine.
Late 90's: Tries his hand at stand up comedy, gets a TV show, show gets cancelled, hits the bottle. The Robitussin cough syrup bottle that is. Space Ghost then runs for mayor of Gothametropolis, while leading the battle to legalize Robitussin, an already legal substance. He then loses the election to whoever.
Year 1:After becoming infatuated with super-heroics, Space Ghost takes up the profession, and shortly after joins the LL.
That's all I can think of now......
