Archibald "Middenface" McNulty is a fictional character from the ''2000 AD'' series ''Strontium Dog'', as well as his own spin-off series. He is a frequent companion of the series' star, Johnny Alpha. ==Plot== The story is set in 22nd century Scotland, which has been warped by radioactive fallout where mutants are the underclass of future Britain. McNulty grew up in the Scottish mutant ghetto called Shytehill (a reference to Sighthill - the Scottish slang term for shit is 'shite'). Middenface gets his nickname from his signature mutation - his skull is covered in hard,knobby bumps which range in size, number and density depending on the artist. Although this mutation is usually portrayed in the comics as purely cosmetic, there have been instances where Middenface shows to have an unnaturally hard skull. Either dealing blows with it or sustaining blows to it that would kill a normal man. Like all the members of the Search/Destroy agency he is a seasoned guerrilla fighter. He has had experience in fighting for his life, leading attacks, and defending himself and others against fanatical hatred and violence since the age of ten. He first appeared in ''Portrait of a Mutant'', the Scottish leader of the rebels in the mutant war and an ally of a young Johnny Alpha. After the war, he became a Search Destroy Agent and first appeared in the present day in ''Outlaw''; he appeared infrequently after this, and after the death of Johnny's partner Wulf Sternhammer, McNulty would become Johnny's new partner in many strips. Initially, he had a running gag of his Scottish dialect being incomprehensible to the English characters but this would be dialed down - his hooligan ways would continue to be a source of humour though. In "The Life and Death of Johnny Alpha" in 2010, a retired Middenface was shown with a genuine drink problem following Johnny Alpha's death. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Middenface McNulty」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
