A group of no good, trouble-making hoodlums who live in a shack at the Townsville City dump, the Gangreen Gang are most renown for being the first villains to battle The Powerpuff Girls shortly after the threesome decided to become superheroes. These green-skinned delinquents are more of a nuisance than significant threat, but they sure know how to make trouble.
The gang is composed of Ace, Snake, Big Billy, Lil’ Arturo and Grubber. It remains unknown how the teens got their green skin and mutated features although it has been intimated that they may have been exposed to some sort of radioactive material at the city dump.
Ace, the group’s leader, briefly left the gang to play bass on tour with the English experimental rock band, The Gorilliaz. Ace performed on the band’s sixth album The Now Now, replacing bassist Murdoc Niccals while he was serving a prison sentence. Following Mudoc’s release, Ace returned to Townsville and joined back up with the Gangreen Gang.
Actors Jeff Bennett, Tom Kenny and Carlos Alazraqui provide the voices for the Gangreen Gang. The green-skinned goons first appeared in the fourth episode of the first season of The Powerpuff Girls, airing on December 9th, 1998.
