History: A huge fan of comic book superheroes, Blockhead Junior High's janitor John Dough decided to become the superhero Captain Handsome. However, despite his big dreams and big chin, he lacked any actual powers, but luckily he also had big ideas, and wasn't going to let this minor problem dissaude him. Thus each night he sneaks into the school science lab to cook up dangerously unstable potions in the hope of giving himself the powers he desires. Meanwhile he has become an unwitting thorn in the side of intergalactic bounty hunters Zit and Zog, who are in John's home town of Smallfry hunting Princess Zucchini of Alpha Centauri 5, who (unknown to John) has disguised herself as schoolteacher Betty Bumper-Sticker.
