DIAMOND GANG

HISTORY 

The Gemstone Gang was a group of artificial humanoids invented by scientist Dr. William Foster.

Unfortunately, something went wrong and the androids turned against their creator and human society.

Evil Opal, Ruby Rage, Emerald King, Diamond Sharpe, Sapphire Blue, Aquamarine, and Carborundum Man escaped from Dr. Foster's lab and engaged in all kinds of misdeeds.

Sapphire Blue had doubts about being a criminal and thanks to her the gang was arrested.

But few prisons are able to hold the Gemstone Gang for long ...

HISTORY

"Bill Foster was a young scientist who invented Mekano, a giant humanoid robot. Bill meant for Mekano to be remote-controlled and not a bit sentient, but he developed some rudimentary sentience anyway. Bill was assisted by Tommy Clark, a teenage boy who approached Bill after hearing about Mekano's impending unveiling and offered his help. Sandra Kent, an investigative reporter for the Tribune, was the closest thing he had to a potential love interest."

He was the creator of the Gemstone Gang.
