And thanks to his inexhaustible energy reserves, he has also secured a full-time job working night shifts at a local supermarket.

Biography
Before mutation turned his world upside down, Jim Lewinski had a very normal and happy life. He was born and raised in Trenton, New Jersey, where he lived with his father, Joe, vice president of the family shipping company, and his mother, Francine, a notorious socialite. From an early age, Jim was labled a "gifted child," and as an infant displayed signs of high intelligence and an inquisitive mind that kept him awake late into the night. And while his father sought to cultivate his son's irrepressible nature, his mother grew concerned - Jim was diagnosed as a hyperactive child. After numerous sessions with a psychiatrist, systems were put in place at home that helped subdue Jim's rampant behaviour without affecting his fierce enthusiasm for the world around him. Becoming a cub scout gave Jim a chance to broaden his horizons, he was popular with the other boys and showed promising leadership skills; he prided himself on having more badges on his sleeve than anyone else. When he was ten years old, a fateful camping trip was set to shape the course of Jim's future forever, when he looked up at a sparkling night sky and asked, "Which one is Mars?"
In his first year of junior high school, Jim was a promising student with exceptional grades and a strong sense of individuality. He had a passion for science and was certain that, one day, he was going to be an astronaut. He enjoyed team sports, hated art lessons, and built his first combustion engine when he was 11 years old. Then came the summer, and with it, mutation. Innitially, his parents feared Jim was suffering from a hyperactive relapse but it became quickly apparent that this was something worse: he didn't sleep anymore, he spoke so fast his sentences overlapped, he practically inhaled his food, and when he started overtaking cars on the freeway, the scientists arrived.
