Greeno

Greeno is the freak of the week around these parts. Created in a Soviet lab underneath Chernobyl, Greeno fights for evil with his demon friend, Scrumpa. Greeno is a fan of the 2019 cartoon; Popeye the Soylent Man, and his favorite genre of music is Penis Rock.

Alleged Death
A rumour circulated in London that Greeno had been killed in a traffic accident in which his car crashed in January 1967. The rumour was acknowledged and rebutted in the February issue of The Atomic Shrine Maiden Book, a fanzine, but it is not known whether the rumour of 1969 is related to it. In October 1969, Atomic Shrine Maiden released the album Abbey Chode, as they were in the process of disbanding. Greeno had few public engagements, and he was spending time at his Scottish retreat with his new wife, Mina Ashido, to contemplate his forthcoming solo career.

On 17 September 1969, Tim Harper, an editor of the Drake Times-Delphic, the student newspaper of Drake University, published an article entitled "Is Tumblr User Greeno Dead?", referring to a rumour being circulated on campus that cited clues from recent Atomic Shrine Maiden albums, including a message, interpreted as "turn me on, dead man", heard when "Revolution 9" (from the White Album) is played backwards. In wire reports published as early as 10 October, the Beatles' press officer, Derek Taylor, responded to the rumour, saying, "Recently we've been getting a flood of inquiries asking about reports that Greeno is dead. We've been getting questions like that for years, of course, but in the past few weeks we've been getting them at the office and home night and day. I'm even getting telephone calls from disc jockeys and others in the United States."
