comment
Included as a bonus within the box for the game Action 52, The Cheetahmen is a Comic-Book Adaptation starring the game's flagship characters. The story and art were created by Joe Martinez. The comic's story contains twelve pages that detail the origin story of the fighting felines.In the African jungle, a mother cheetah is shot dead by the evil scientist Dr. Morbis, who then captures her three babies. Taking the cubs to his laboratory, he injects them with a mutagenic formula that causes them to grow into half-animal, half-human creatures he calls "Sub-Humans". Fifteen years pass, and he decides the three are ready to help him carry out his plans for world domination, but they refuse, having grown to question the morals of their master. Outraged, Morbis banishes them from his lab, but as they discuss their master's actions, they trigger some long forgotten memories of their mother's death, and return to the doctor for some answers. Morbis instead sends a group of new Sub-Humans to fight his failed creations. The Cheetahmen dispatch these new enemies easily, but Morbis escapes before they can deal with him. From here, the Cheetahmen vow to protect the world from whatever evil deeds Morbis has planned for the future.The story featured within the book is titled "The Creation" and is labeled as "Book One", suggesting that more Cheetahmen comics were planned at one point, but no more would ever come to fruition, and Active Enterprises would leave the gaming industry not long after the release of Action 52. The final pages of the book contain an advertisement for Cheetahmen action figures, showing drawings of figures of all three Cheetahmen, as well as the various villains, but these too would never end up getting made.

Misplaced Wildlife: The Cheetahmen and their mother are said to have been living in the jungles of Africa before Morbis hunted them down. Real cheetahs live in grasslands and savannahs, but not jungles.

Evil Counterpart

comment
Evil Counterpart: The second group of Sub-Humans are another trio, albeit of different animals this time, and they have similar dynamics to the heroic Cheetahmen. While the White Rhino is clearly intended as the antithesis to Hercules, since they're both the muscle of their respective teams, it's a bit less clear with the other two, since in the video game, which member Aries and Apollo fight are switched, and the Hyena and Scavenger don't get much characterization.
