- "All except old Guildmaster Jorbelox. He defied them! Fought to save our homes, he did! On the steps of the Old Guildhall! Killed six Jägers, broke Master Bill's arm, and lived to flee!"

Appears in the short story "The Mechanicsburg Guild of Monsters".
Destruction of the Monster District[]
Bill and Barry Heterodyne decided to destroy the Fleshyards of Mechanicsburg, which was perfectly understandable given their opposition to villainy, and replace them with a hospital district. Unfortunately the Fleshyards were also the location of the Monster District where the Mechanicsburg Guild of Monsters had been taking in and housing unwanted and abandoned monster constructs from all over Europa for four-hundred years ✣ and The Heterodyne Boys were determined to destroy their homes and dissolve the guild in the process. Jorbelox fought the Heterodynes and their Jägermonsters to try to protect the guild's monsters and managed to help Castle Heterodyne hide the Guildhall rather than allow its destruction, planning to have the hall restored by the monsters joining together and bringing the Guildhall's key to the Guildhall's capstone figure which sought refuge in the Red Cathedral during the destruction.
Later Life[]
Jorbelox fled to Rome where he became the Pope's monster for the last twenty years of his life. While there he mentored the gentleman monster Snakkerjape who went on to move to Mechanicsburg and pledge loyalty to the Heterodyne, helping reinstate The Mechanicsburg Guild of Monsters as a legitimate organization.
