Voice actor: Allan Melvin

After an unsuccessful attempt to take over the East Coast crime syndicate Murchison instead allied himself with Cy-Kill and the Renegades. Together they arranged a meeting of all the major crime bosses in the country, planning to pool their forces in order to overwhelm the Guardians, UNECOM and the rest of the authorities. Sure enough the campaign soon left the various law enforcement agencies overwhelmed, allowing numerous criminal operations to succeed. However, this wasn't enough for Murchison, who wanted to run the whole country. As such Dr. Go built a forcefield generator that made his forces invulnerable. The army of crime marched on Washington, D.C.; protected by the forcefield they simply trampled the combined Guardian/UNECOM force General Newcastle led in defence of the city. Murchison then personally turfed the President of the United States. With Leader-1 and Turbo damaged victory seemed complete, with Murchison donning a stylish 1930s German-style uniform and wallowing in his power in a parade, chauffeured by the Renegade Stretch. However, Flip Top and Matt Hunter remained in play and while the Guardian kept Cop-Tur busy Matt was able to destroy the forcefield generator. Subsequently the military were able to counter-attack and Murchison was rapidly deposed and abandoned by the Renegades. Crime Wave
