Captain Underpants and the Sensational Saga of Sir Stinks-a-lot (Captain Underpants, 12)

Product Information

Captain Underpants is an illustrated children's graphic novel series by American author and illustrator Dav Pilkey. The series revolves around two fourth graders, George Beard and Harold Hutchins, living in Piqua, Ohio, and Captain Underpants, an aptly named superhero from one of the boys' homemade comic books, who accidentally becomes real when George and Harold hypnotize their cruel, bossy, and ill-tempered principal, Mr. Krupp. From the third book onwards, Mr. Krupp also possesses superhuman strength, durability and flight as a result of drinking alien "Extra-Strength Super Power Juice". Dav Pilkey stated that Captain Underpants may return again in a Dog Man book. However, it is unknown if Mr. Krupp will be hypnotised into being him again. It might be possible that he will only be in the Dog Man stories and team up with the titular hero. The Lunch Ladies – The Lunch Ladies are the three women who run the cafeteria. They are notorious for cooking horrible, inedible, and possibly lethal food. They quit in the third book when Mr. Krupp says he cannot punish George and Harold for their antics without proof, though they are possibly rehired after the replacements are revealed to be aliens. Two of the Lunch Ladies are named, Miss Creant, the head lunch lady, and Mrs. DePoint, the cook. The revealed names are puns on the word "Miscreant" and the phrase "Misses the point". FrankenFart vs. The Bionic Barf Bunnies from Diarrhea Land (made appearances in Captain Underpants and the Preposterous Plight of the Purple Potty People and Cat Kid Comic Club)

When it comes to books, we may not all agree on what makes for a good read – but I hope we can agree that letting children choose their own books is crucial to helping them learn to love reading.” The Dandelion of Doom – A dandelion that drank alien super evil rapid-growth juice, causing it to grow into a giant, evil monster. In The Epic Tales of Captain Underpants series, he is both a villain and ironically a hero as well, but does not use the Sir Stinks-A-Lot identity, as he is Flabby Fabulous as an antagonist and Sergeant Boxers as a replacement superhero for Captain Underpants. Since Mr. Meaner was still a gym teacher at heart evil and ruthless, he didn't care about bringing world peace to humanity or ending world hunger. Mr. Meaner then reflects on how their problems were caused by the students at the school. So he commanded to them that they all return to the school immediately and go about their business as usual, and nothing is to look suspicious.In a piece written for the Guardian last month, Pilkey wrote: “People often ask me how I’d want to respond to those critics who would rather see my books pulled from shelves than handed to young readers. I do have an answer, and it boils down to the fact that not every book is right for every person. Some grownups are not amused by the kinds of things that make most children laugh, and so they try to stomp those things out.” One autumn afternoon, Tippy Tinkletrousers (who is also a prisoner) is tasked to build a statue of Warden Gordon Bordon Schmorden, who is the chief jailer of the prison. Tippy does the task but instead builds "a giant robot suit". Krupp notices Tippy and he remembers and confronts him for what happened the last time when he shrunk the school and made everyone change their names. However, Krupp does not remember that he as Captain Underpants was the one to put a stop to Tippy's reign of terror that day. The Tra-La-La Riffic Captain Underpants Collection/The First Captain Underpants Collection (Books 1–4; 1997–2000) When Mr. Melvin snaps his fingers, Kruppy the Kid turns into Captain Underpants (or more accurately, Captain Kruppy the Underpants Kid). Mr. Melvin then makes George and Harold tell him everything about Captain Underpants. The Talking Toilets – An army of living toilets created by George and Harold, who were accidentally brought into the real world with a modified photocopier. They could only say "Yum Yum Eat em Up!"

In the book series continuity, Captain Underpants no longer exists in Mr. Krupp's body, as Sir Stinks-a-Lot wiped his superpowers and the 3D Hypno-Ring's effect from his brain. This was thought to create a plot hole because when Tippy Tinkletrousers tries to kill Captain Underpants 30 years in the future George and Harold are able to snap their fingers to turn Future Mr. Krupp into Captain Underpants, but it was debunked as he transformed in an alternate univirse. This book was about Harold and George and their quest to take down Mr. Meaner. Mr. Meaner had created a spray that would turn kid to all be good and obedient. George and Harold probably being the reason because they were the biggest pranksters and Mr. Meaner hated it. MR. Meaner had first tried it on George and Harold's Clones, Old George and Old Harold. They noticed it when they got home to the tree-house and Old Harold and Old George had brought home and huge amount of home work.So George and Harold Got to thinking and went into the future to see themselves, except now they were thirty. Even though they were older they still remembered how to take down Mr. Meaner and eventually they did. In book 11, when the teachers saw two Georges and two Harolds, they think they are dreaming and then they go naked. They are arrested when Miss Fitt pulled down Officer McWiggly's pants. Mr Hand in the series gets hired.On the day Tippy presents his robot suit to Gordon Shmorden, he reveals his work and climbs on to the suit and freezes everyone in his way (the same suit used at the very end of the eighth book). Tippy then grabs Mr. Krupp and forces him to spill the information of Captain Underpants and to give him the information of George and Harold's whereabouts.

Captain Underpants and the Invasion of the Incredibly Naughty Cafeteria Ladies from Outer Space (and the Subsequent Assault of the Equally-Evil Lunchroom Zombie Nerds): Collectors' Edition (2008) The Adventures of Ook and Gluk Jr: Kung-Fu Cavekids in Outer Space (most likely completely cancelled due to the discontinuation of the first Ook and Gluk book)Peaple thought it is possible he was not erased from Mr. Krupp's mind in the book series, because in Captain Underpants and the Revolting Revenge of the Radioactive Robo-Boxers, Old Benjamin Krupp was able to turn into Captain Underpants, even after the events of Captain Underpants and the Sensational Saga of Sir Stinks-A-Lot , but it was in an alternate timeline, and because they became modest, Mr. Meaner didn't need to invent Rid-O-Kid, thus didn't change into Sir-Stinks-A-Lot, thus Captain Underpants never lost his powers. George Beard and Harold Hutchins – Two clever fourth-grade pranksters, who are: best friends, next-door neighbors, and the main protagonists of the series. They started a comic book company called "Treehouse Comix, Inc.", and every so often at school they sneak to the secretary's office to make copies of their latest comic book and sell them on the playground for 50 cents. They are the class clowns in 4th grade at Jerome Horwitz Elementary School (named for Curly of the Three Stooges), a school which discourages imagination and fun, located in Piqua, Ohio. They often get in trouble and serious events with Mr. Krupp. Harold's birthday is March 6, 1986, and George's is July 11, 1986. After time travel antics, duplicates of them are created in the present, referred to as Yesterday George and Yesterday Harold. After the original duo travel to the future, they find their others selves to have become graphic novel creators. Future Yesterday George married a white woman named Lisa and had two mixed-race children named Meena and Nik. Future Yesterday Harold married a man named Billy and had adopted twin children named Owen and Kei. George's parents are named Moses and Barbara, while Harold's mother is named Grace. George's grandmother and Harold's grandfather appear in the eighth book, where they unknowingly drink the last of the superpower juice while reading a comic the boys created where they are the heroes. They later transform into the same heroes to defend George and Harold from Captain Blunderpants and profess their love to each other, much to the boys' disgust. In the adaptations, their personalities are mostly unchanged, but they now usually only prank to entertain their schoolmates and treat Captain Underpants more as a friend than a last resort. In the film, they are respectively voiced by Kevin Hart and Thomas Middleditch and by Ramone Hamilton and Jay Gragnani in the series.
