The Battling Monkeys is a supergroup on Pinnacle server.

History

The Battling Monkeys were formed in October 2004 by a group of like-minded heroes responding to call of Statesman for new heroes in the wake of the devestating First Rikti Invasion. After most of the initial founders, including Fighting Guy, Doc Fa and Electra Static retired in 2006, the supergroup became mostly dormant, with only the The Blud Family remaining active.

In 2008, The Bluds opened the supergroup to young heroes looking to contribute in a part-time capacity while maintaining a balance with their secret identities. This surge in participation has re-energized the supergroup.

Purpose

The Battling Monkeys offer a home to the more causal superhero. Most of the active superheroes are young people, who superhero part-time while going to college.
