Roger Wilco was Roger Wilco's grandfather.

Background[]

He is a freighter pilot and a Maintenance Specialist like his father before him.[1] He is real proud of his grandson, an intergalactic hero. Roger and his grandfather used to play cards on the bridge of his space freighter when he was a kid. Roger Wilco always enjoyed that.[2]

Behind the scenes[]

Technically his grandfather's surname is not given... It is possible that the grandfather Roger mentions is actually from his mother's side. Rather than his father's father. On the other hand Roger’s family is apparently inbred meaning family intermarries (his parents are brother and sister or kissing cousins). Meaning both parents apparently have same last name…[3]

However personality wise, his mother was pretty nasty person... Grandfather has more of a cordial personality like Roger and his Father.
