Earthworm Jim, the space-faring, head-whipping sci-fi dirt eater from the 16-bit days of yore, is getting a special Super NES cartridge reissue from iam8bit.
It seems almost quaint now, but there was a time when no video game company worth its salt didn't have a cartoon mascot. Some of those mascots, like Aero the Acrobat, haven't been heard from in years, while others like Sonic and Mario are considered icons.
One of nature's lowliest creatures, the earthworm, was an unlikely choice for a mascot, but Earthworm Jim persevered, starring in four different games in the 1990s, and even a short-lived Kids' WB animated series.
