Raggedy Anthrax: The Origin Story

Raggedy Anthrax grew up on the mean streets of Toyland, the black sheep of the family. While her cousins Raggedy Ann and Andy were studying at the Jigsaw Academy, Anthrax ran a stable of 'companionship' ponies and built a thriving criminal enterprise.


It wasn't long before she expanded. Soon she was dabbling in minor chemical warfare. Compound V, Glitterstim, Nuke, Soma, Spice or just pure, uncut Dust. She didn't care. For the right price Anthrax could get anything. Or anyone.

Rumors swirled over the dismembered Mr. Spice addict discovered mostly under the docks. Police investigated Anthrax, but the investigation was later dropped- due to the lead detective also being found mostly under the docks.

She earned quite a reputation in Toyland as someone not to be crossed. The rest of the goody-goody Raggedy family distanced themselves from their wayward cousin. She didn't care. By then she had a network of minions to do her bidding. Anthrax was well on her way to being the top toy in the box.

Then it all came crashing down. She got involved with the head honcho from Toontown with the promise of a big payoff- and got double crossed when it all went south. Going into business with someone that went by the handle of 'Judge Doom' turned out to be a big, almost fatal, mistake.

The Dip didn't just produce the acid trip of a lifetime, it was the last acid trip of a lifetime

Killing customers, except to send a message occasionally, is bad business. Anthrax objected- and Judge Doom turned on her! He attacked without warning, intending to wipe out his rival. Anthrax and her trusted henchmen tried to cut their way out of the ambush.

Only a step ahead of Dr. Doom's goons, Anthrax was forced to leave Toyland. She fled into the Real World and went deep underground to shake off pursuit. 

Now she walks among you, hiding among the roller girls and biding her time until she can return to Toyland and wreck holy vengeance on Judge Doom and his weasels.
