At some point, the [[Euclidean Plane]] was discovered by a group of Cupids who'd pressed the “random destination” button of their [[Fog Ship]]. After initial scouting was complete, the Plane soon became a favoured target for the Crew.

As early as 1978, the Cupids encountered evidence of the [[Gang of the Green Gorilla]]'s activity in the form of people randomly abducted by the Crew on the Prime Earth who showed signs of Gorilla brainwashing. However, being unaware of the Gang's existence at the time, the Cupids didn't know what to make of them and released them back on Earth without reversing the conditioning. | |||
In December 1986, a group of Green Gorillas took control of the town supermarket of [[Vanityville]], emptying it of all [[Christmas]] paraphernalia and instead forcing the shopping customers to buy their green-gorilla merchandise, at gunpoint. They encountered a group of [[Clockwork Cherub]]s of the Crew, led by Commander [[Amadeo-378]], by coincidence. Noting the affected humans' unhappiness, the Cupids decided the Gang's aims seemed oppose to their own and decided to defeat them, kicking off the [[Skirmish at the Vanityville Supermarket]]. The Cupids were victorious, although the Gang's scientists subsequently learned how to reverse Cupid [[Love Potion|romanticisation]]. Thereafter, the Cupids went on to oppose the Gorillas on many occasions, “from the depths of the [[Amazonian jungle]] to the very [[North Pole]]”. Meanwhile, Amadeo-378 was commended for his effective leadership, and was awarded membership of the [[Order of Aphrodite]].
