Smirch is a bitter and unscrupulous man from [[Earth|the real world]] who features prominently in every issue, often appearing before any other characters. He is depicted with little redeeming qualities, attempting to avoid paying for food at a restaurant and declaring "Beggars should be shot!" to a homeless veteran. He possesses little empathy for others, save for his pet tarantula, Atilla. Smirch, an underpaid electronics store worker, stole and sold [[Game Boy]]s in resentment. He often played ''[[Super Mario Land]]'', deliberately losing at the final boss, [[Tatanga]]. In each issue, Smirch follows Tatanga's orders, releasing the villain and his minions from the Game Boy into the real world. | ||
In the first issue of the Game Boy Comics ("[[In the Palm of Your Hand...]]"), Smirch is hypnotized into letting the alien villain out of the Game Boy he had stolen, but two nearby teenagers promptly do the same with [[Mario]] and the plumber quickly defeats the invader. However, Tatanga escapes with [[Princess Daisy]], whom he had kidnapped, back into the console which he had come out of. | In the first issue of the Game Boy Comics ("[[In the Palm of Your Hand...]]"), Smirch is hypnotized into letting the alien villain out of the Game Boy he had stolen, but two nearby teenagers promptly do the same with [[Mario]] and the plumber quickly defeats the invader.
