Fission Chicken fights a continuing battle against weird monsters and cultural brain death. Over the years he had battled the mind control attempts of Vortoxians, the Ditsy entertainment empire and Video Zombies but also faced some rather unusual opponents like monstrously animated, ravenous toilets, movie monster Ferdie Cruller (pun on Freddie Kruger), and of course his evil twin.
