Pork Chops

Synopsis:
Riding on the wave of all things Oriental "the executives" decide that they want a Far Eastern series of their own. With animals.
The result - PORK CHOPS

Pork Chops is a pig in a Karate Gi. In spite of the fact that he is a master of Karate, he is a Chinese pig. As with all good heroes our pig's crime fighting identity is a mystery to all that know him and by day he works as a chef in a Chinese restaurant. On top of insults concerning blurred racial stereotype boundaries with vague references to the "Far East", Pork Chops can often be seen preparing pork dishes with meat cleaver in hand.

As far as appearance goes Pork Chops has a "Chinese" haircut with his pig ears poking out (when not wearing his chef's hat) and possibly a "Chinese" mandarin's moustache. Enemies are generally generic but all vaguely oriental in flavour, ranging from rats that do kung-fu to human ninjas.

The archenemy comes in the form of Armour D. Lao, an armadillo crime boss who rides in a rickshaw.
