Wrongfully imprisoned in a high-security penitentiary for a crime he didn't commit, framed by a conspiracy at the highest levels, with no hope of appeal or parole, he took the only other option available to him. He treated his new environment as a school, and there were many within its walls that were willing to teach him what they knew, for the right price. Five years of hard training later, he was a master thief and escape artist. He broke out and went undercover, determined to bring down those who wronged him, and to clear his name. Now he skulks through the night, a shadowy figure of vengence, as Escape Goat.
Shortly after his escape, the trail of corruption and conspiracy that he was following led him into a collision with a small group of martial-arts masters. After much initial confusion it became clear that they too were trying to bring down those working behind the scenes. They wanted to avenge one of their fallen comrades, killed because he saw something he shouldn't have. Now they work together to bring those responsible to trial. Together they are Escape Goat and the Shaolin Skunks!
