Shiner was an R2-series astromech droid assigned to New Republic pilot Myn Donos. Shiner served with Donos in Talon Squadron until the unit's destruction at Gravan Seven, and then went with him to the newly formed Wraith Squadron.

Shiner was destroyed during the Wraiths' battle with the Blood Nest pirates, which nearly sent Donos into severe depression.

  • Shiner is a minor character in the Wild Cards anthology. He lives a floor above Jube the Walrus in a cheap room he shares with Doughboy. Although not biologically related, Shiner and Doughboy share a father and son relationship.
  • The shiners are incredibly unmotivated, letting themselves be invaded by slimers (snails). Two shiners appear in the series: Photos Glow-Glow and Zap.
  • Captain Shiner is a mercenary for hire and captain of the spaceship The Vertus. He wears a monocle on his left eye and has a German-sounding accent. Like his crew, he has dog-like facial features. Whilst he is generally hired by Mumm-Ra, he is not without principle and did assist in helping Lion-O, Panthro and Snarf escape a black hole.
  • __NOEDITSECTION__ Shiner is the first Z Syndicate commander that the hero battles. He follows Oboro, a leader in the organizaiton. He is the sole main character in the Z Syndicate who doesn't use an robo body, but he sometimes uses an illegal gun. Shiner commands Breaker.
  • A shiner is bruising around the eye commonly due to an injury to the eye surface by a large angry fist. The name is given because it shines in bad light. Most shiner injuries are major and will never seal completely. In rare cases people have been known to pass away, mainly because their eye was punched through the rear of their head or through internal eye bleeding.

Trivia
  • Shiner's Mum was pretty much identical to Mrs. Bumpkin of the Bumpkin Billionaires from Whoopee!, probably because the two strips had the same artist, Mike Lacey.

HistoryText
  • Shiner was the leader of the "Chip-Ite" faction in the Whizzer and Chips comic, and featured on the front cover of the Chips insert throughout the title's run . He was a little boy who was an amateur boxer, and one way or another-though he hadn't a malicious bone in his body, always seemed to end up with a black eye, to which he would frequently hold a slice of raw steak-much to the annoyance of his nagging Mum!thumb|left|Shiner's Mum Shiner, who had an ongoing friendly rivalry with his "Whizz-Kid" counterpart Sid, was also the host of the Chips insert's letters page.
