Important People in History: Jim Hawking

• Name: Jim Hawking

• Died: At the age of 26

• Reason For Death: Suffocation (O2 malfunction) 

• Story:

Jim was Gene's young Outlaw partner. Although he didn't have as many years under his belt as Gene, Jim was actually a bit more levelheaded and mature than his older buddy was. Where Gene was somewhat impulsive and reckless, Jim was rather clever and sensible. Jim always looked out for his pal and was careful to avoid trouble. But when danger loomed, he often had an explosive charge handy for Gene's trusty blaster. He was also a very skilled mechanic and had he not been knocked unconscious in the blast that sealed all their fates he might have been able to repair the damage enough to at least run away, or buy time.
