About "Immortal Warrior"
The show was infamous for its extreme amounts of adult themes, profanity and graphic violence, hence its widespread appeal to the peoples of the Inner Sphere.
The Immortal Warrior was noted for his penchant for creating huge explosions, carrying an arsenal of guns and explosives on his person at all times, and seemingly having infinite ammunition for his personal weaponry, as the Immortal Warrior was never seen to reload. Movie posters for the series were noted to have on average fifteen separate explosions per individual one-sheet.[1]
The title character was portrayed by actor Ricardo Hunt for seventeen seasons. [2]
As with any popular show, Immortal Warrior inspired a great torrent of accompanying merchandise. As of 3067 one of the latest was Immortal Warrior: Shattered Sword III, a virtual action/adventure holovid game for Nashan Electronics’ SpectraQuad-64 Game Sphere entertainment system.[3] Likewise, product placement on Immortal Warrior is highly coveted for the increased sales it can bring, such as the spike in popularity experienced by Valiant Systems's Valiant Regal sportster following its use in Immortal Warriors XXVII thru to XXXII.

Reaction to "Immortal Warrior"
An unnamed Battle Armor wearing soldier of the Solaris VII Home Defense League at the beginning of the Word of Blake occupation of Solaris VII, was a huge fan of "Immortal Warrior". He said of the show, "We're not talking about the Immortal Warrior here - it may be art, but my God, doesn't that man ever have to reload?"[5]
The Clans have reportedly derided "Immortal Warrior" as a prime example of "Lyran aggression".[citation needed]
