Ahab was a bounty hunter from the year 50000.

Profile

Ahab, along with four Jixen, murdered Zanthus Pia, head of the Galactic Peace Commission. The murder was observed by K9, who attempted to stop them. (K9TV: The Bounty Hunter) Before he could do so, the Jixen and K9 were sent back in time to 2050 via Professor Gryffen's Space-Time Manipulator. (K9TV: Regeneration) Some time later, Ahab came to 2050 to find K9, claiming he murdered Zanthus. Being unable to get information from Professor Gryffen, he joined forces with Inspector Drake and The Department (who were also looking for K9). Since his memories were damaged, K9 believed that he was the murderer and turned himself in to Ahab. However, the lasso used by Ahab to hold K9 was super-cooled, turning K9 into a superconductor and repairing his memory. When they learned of the truth, Jorjie Turner threw a cup of tea on the lasso, neutralizing it. The force of the lasso sent Ahab into the STM, catapulting him 2900 years into the future but the same place, at which point the Earth had moved, leaving him in space. (K9TV: The Bounty Hunter)

Technology

Zanthus used a lasso that worked with extreme cold, which could be neutralized with heat. He also had a voice analyzer. (K9TV: The Bounty Hunter)

Behind the Scenes

  • Ahab's name is presumably a reference to the hunter Captain Ahab from the book Moby Dick.
