Zapper Rapper

Zapper Rapper is Harry Smith's favourite comic book and TV series, airing on Smash TV since 2004, while the comic book series was first published in 1998. It is about a space soldier who has to stop Volcanus from being attacked by aliens in the 23rd century. Zapper Rapper is also a rap star and lots of rap music is heard throughout all the episodes - this is why Patrick McCrae hates the show. However, he likes some of the techno music that plays in the background of parts of the shows and video games.
A theme park dedicated to its fans called Zapper Rapper Planet opened in Chocthorpe in April 2014. Zapper Rapper has additionally spawned the full-length movie Zapper Rapper: Grand Battle Z and the short film Zapper Rapper: Poopclear Bomb.
