[CHARACTER INFO]
CHARACTER NAME: Barney
FANDOM: Tank Girl!
CHRONOLOGY: Post-Visions of Booga
CLASS: Hero? Erm. In the Tank Girl-kind-of-hero way. She’s a hero in her canon. Otherwise, she’d probably be considered more of an anti-hero? IDK. Let’s say hero.
SUPERHERO NAME: Barney
ALTER EGO: Barneeeeeeeeeeeeey
BACKGROUND:
TANK GIRL 2
Barney makes her debut in Tank Girl 2. Of course, this would mean that she was swept up in the massive posse Tank Girl gained at the Bell’s End riot. Apparently, Barney was incarcerated there before Tank’s rescue, for reasons assuming that she was insane. Upon their escape, Tank momentarily leaves Barney with the wheel of their escape boat and comes back moments later, just as Barney “was getting comfortable.”
THE ODYSSEY
Tank Girl: The Odyssey is sort of a mock rendition of Homer’s epic. After Tank picks up her gang at a local pub (Jet, Sub, Barney, and Tank’s fangirl, Dawn), they decide to take a giant zeppelin to go home. Unfortunately, Barney craves the sweet nectar of the pub’s booze on tap (so much that she had to be pried away to rejoin the gang). In a furious hunger, she launches a missile off into the zeppelin and ends up killing the entire cast in a crash. In the underworld, Tank ends up saving Barney, along with the rest of her friends from being damned forever by locating the Prince of Farts, resurrecting herself and then farting on all of her friends’ corpses to bring them back from the dead.
After many failures and triumphs, including the sudden desire to spring some old dead and ugly back from the dead in order to “watch it suffer,” Barney, along with the rest of Tank’s gang heads back to Australia. They end up hijacking a plane with a revolver and a tank in order to get first class, but they get their flight nonetheless. During the flight, Barney gets drunk and Tank pulls out her tooth, then flings it off somewhere. This somewhere happens to (on accident) be the pilot’s head and he dies. The plane crashes.
Stranded, they find themselves hypnotized by an awful goth band. Tank Girl defeats them and forces everyone to snap out of it. Then they all float on the Tank to a shady hotel run by cultists. They escape once again thanks to a friend of Tank’s who uses his eye lasers to fight off the enemy. A million other spontaneous things happen and at the end Tank saves Booga from all the suitors just like in Homer’s epic the end.
THE GIFTING
The Gifting starts with Tank taking Barney out for her birthday. Tank ends up leaving all her money at home so Barney offers to pay, only to find a dog turd in her purse. Thus, the two of them decide to trace backward in order to find the origins of this dog turd, because Barney can’t seem to remember. After thinking on it for a bit, she realizes that SHE had actually poo’ed in the bag herself and that the bag wasn’t hers, but Tank’s! Tank then puts the bag on Barney’s head.
Tank then wins the lottery so she, Barney, and Booga buy a hotel. Booga calls a lady fat and eggs on a hick-family brawl. They end up leaving and say they’re going to come back with a small army. Barney and Tank decide to wage war on the town where the hick family came from. Barney ends up driving her car, gets distracted by a bunny, and hit a fork (literally, a fork) in the road. It blows out one of the tires and they crash. After pulling things together, the tire is replaced and they take off once more. Halfway there, Barney remembers that her 94 year old aunt is visiting the hotel so they have to hurry up.
They instead, decide to just head back to the hotel. Eventually the brigade of hicks barrel in for an attack. Barney’s Aunt Sue ends up knowing how to use a rifle due to her having the special edition of Platoon. They defeat the hicks and Barney and Tank flee to a boat. The boat is owned by Jackie, Barney’s hairdresser (who doesn’t actually “dress hair”), who begs to be called Boat Girl.
VISIONS OF BOOGA
Tank discovers that Barney is now working as a waitress. Tank is now thirsting for a new vehicle and Barney surprises her (decked in a full-out SS uniform) with a Panzer. Apparently, she recently dated a guy who was into vintage war vehicles and the tank was his Valentine’s Day present to her.
After totaling the diner she worked at (with the tank’s canon), Barney discovers that Booga is carrying an ancient hippie book known as the “Book of Hipster.” The gang decides to deliver it to an old friend of Barney’s who is one of the only remaining hippies that didn’t smoke themselves to death. A gang of “vengeful hoodlums” start chasing after them in another tank, shit happens, Tank ends up reading a passage from the Book of Hipster which pacifies their rage.
POWER:
The ability to eat ANYTHING that can fit in her mouth (and not die). Whatever she eats, will mystically end up in the middle of the Sahara desert (unbeknownst to her). That way if she eats something important, characters can eventually retrieve it. Somehow. C&C HAS ITS WAYS.
Also. Her skull is now made of titanium. Just her skull.
