Jax Minner is a former circus strongman-turned-insurance agent who disguised himself as the Red Humungonaut to his brother and rival insurance agent, Max Minner who dressed up as the Green Humungonaut.[1]
Physical appearance[]
Jax is a large, middle-aged man with blond hair and a mustache. He has a scar across his left eye. He wears a green two-piece suit with a cream colored shirt and green tie. In his early life as a circus strongman, he wore a striped tank top, shorts, and lace up boots.
Personality[]
Minner is a man with an undying hatred of his brother. This hatred stems from their careers as circus strongmen, in which Max abandoned his brother to join a rival circus. This led Max to be established as Jax's mortal enemy, and as Max accuses Jax of being jealous of his success, the hatred is reciprocated. This mutual hatred persisted even after both brothers retired from the circus and became insurance agents, and this led them to resort to criminal means to attack each other's companies. Both are incredibly destructive and violent in their attacks, destroying entire buildings using nothing but their bare hands and physical strength. Even after being arrested, Max Minner lost his temper with his brother, getting into a fistfight while handcuffed.
Skills and abilities[]
As a former circus strongman, he has stupendous strength. His feats as the Red Humungonaut were done using his own muscle power.[1]
History[]
Early life[]
Jax unmasked.
Jax Minner and his brother Max were former circus strongmen. Together, they came up with an idea for their act called the "Hercules Apes" until Max broke up the act by joining a rival circus, causing the brothers to become bitter enemies. Eventually, as chance would have it, Jax and Max ran their own insurance agencies in Crystal Cove, becoming even bigger rivals.[1]
Scooby-Doo! Mystery Incorporated[]
Season one[]
The brothers set out to destroy each other's businesses by destroying the properties the other insured, with Jax disguising himself as the Red Humungonaut.[1]
When it came to a dock that Mystery Incorporated set a trap for, the Red Humungounaut ended up fighting the Green Humungonaut until both Humungounauts easily got caught in Fred Jones, Jr.'s trap. When Sheriff Bronson Stone and Mayor Fred Jones, Sr. arrived with the cops, Velma Dinkley unmasked the Humungounauts as Max and Jax Minner. After their back-story, Max and Jax stated that they would've gotten away with it too "if it weren't for my meddling brother." This caused the brothers to fight again as two police officers tried to break it up.[1]

He was in the prison cafeteria when Krampus kidnapped Mary Anne Gleardan.[2]
