Biography

"A new member, Tex R. Colburn joins A.I.M. from the wide open ranges of Tokyo, Japan. This Asian cowboy-wannabe has limited experience but seems to pick up on things rather quickly. However, you will have to put up with some pretty annoying "B" western cliches!" - Jagged Alliance

"One of our more colourful warriors, Tex Colburn, handed in his six-shooters to fulfil his dream of starring on the big screen. As a rising star of Japanese westerns, he played the lead in "Much Dust, Many Bullets." and has received glowing reviews for his roles in the classic films "Attack of the Clydesdales" and "Have Honda, will travel.". - Jagged Alliance 2 Alumni gallery.

"One of our more colourful warriors, Tex Colburn has returned to the mercenary life. As a star of Japanese westerns, he played the lead in "Much Dust, Many Bullets." and has received glowing reviews for his roles in the classic films "Attack of the Clydesdales" and "Have Honda, Will Travel." Tex is quick with a .357 in each hand, and travels with his own stage makeup". - M.E.R.C. dossier, v1.13

After taking leave from A.I.M. in Jagged Alliance 2, Tex appears again in Tracona, at Betty Fung Convenience Store and Video Outlet, on a celebrity tour of third-world countries to promote his latest movie, "Wild, Wild East". Disgruntled with the life of a Hollywood celebrity and feeling nostalgic for his days as a mercenary with A.I.M., he can be easily persuaded to join forces with your mercenaries.

Additional info
