It would have been an epic story about how a far away world needed a hero, but instead they got Troy \ud83d\ude42 Troy is kind of like a crossover between Futurama&#8217;s Captain Brannigan and Star Trek&#8217;s Captain Kirk. Being a man&#8217;s man, but not quite knowing his limitations&#8230; and obviously not too bright either \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>And the other character, Frenchy, isn&#8217;t actually French at all. He&#8217;s Belgian (where they speak French :P).
