DEX

Once there was a man named Dex who came from outer space. He fell on a dirty planet and saw dirty craters and deep holes. Dex is crazy about boxing. He has the power to stretch his arms. His secret weapon is that he can shoot out boxing gloves. Dex will box to clean up the dirty planet. The battle will go on for three years.

Dex currently lives in Los Angeles. Some things he does when he isn't helping his community by boxing are: he rides his bike, he draws, he tells jokes, he learns, and he likes to invent things.
