 You're fighting Jocko Homo

You're walking all alone down the street in the alley when out of nowhere, a figure leaps in front of you and shouts "PEEK-A-BOO!"

You jump backwards in shock at the sight of a huge grinning monkey in a business suit, a red ziggurat-like hat perched on its head. As he jerks wildly back and forth, you recognize him as one of the Spirit of New Wave's strangest and most insidious creations: Jocko Homo.

He's got an urge, got a surge, and it's out of control. You got a gut feeling that it's a god-given fact that you can't go back. He owes you absolutely nothing -- time to fight punch your way to happiness.

Hit Message(s):

You are unexpectedly hit in the neck by falling space junk. Possibly a soviet sputnik.

Critical Hit Message:

not known

Miss Message(s):

Eyes were made for lookin', fists were made for missin'.

He tries to whip you with his tail, but you give the past the slip.

He starts to bite you, but something about the way you taste makes him wanna clear his throat.

He recites a poem from ancient Rome, but it's not very interesting.
