The Adventures of Hero-Man Season 1 Episodes

Here is the list of Season 1 Episodes from "The Adventures of Hero-Man". As Season 1 started it had little-to-no direction, but as the events on screen were occurring, there were numerous things happening behind-the-scenes. Here is a recap of each episode's storyline, adapted by the events in the Hero-Man canon(retconned for proper placing in the EC Universe portion the series exists in). The season started with several 3-Part story arcs, and the episodes listed are done in proper arc form.

### **The Premiere Arc(3 episodes)**

The series begins with the "Premiere Arc" in which Hero-Man, Sidekick Kid and Pumpkin Head are introduced. The main locales of this arc are Taco Kingdom and the Rooftops of the City.

#### **Episode 1: "Getting Tacos"(Series Pilot)**

   As Hero-Man is out on patrol, he decides to head to a nearby Taco Kingdom location. Realizing it's closed, he decides to opt for a nearby pizza place to get a bite to eat instead. While he's on out in the City, Sidekick Kid is across town, tracking down the whereabouts of where the Un-Good Gang is. He has brief memories of his past, but decides to find Hero-Man and grab a bite to eat himself.

As Hero-Man "flies"(a short-lived power he had in Season 1), he soon arrives back on the rooftops where things begin to develop in the first 3-Part story arch for the series.

#### **Episode 2: "Enter the Villain!"**

Keeping a lookout near Taco Kingdom, Hero-Man soon spots the "Hero-Signal", which warns him of trouble in the City. As he goes to investigate, he encounters the first on-screen villain of the series, Pumpkin Head. Dr. Servo had sent his Hatarian/Earth-based Hybrid to try to trap Hero-Man, who Dr. Servo had been keeping tabs on since the disappearance of Neuro-Hawk and Angel Stargazer into a Void Portal Generator. As Servo began to plot his next move, the AGENCY's Director, gave Agent 33 the assignment to find where the traitor, Julius Bellington was operating out of.

Back on the rooftops, Hero-Man saw that Pumpkin Head had the "last" bag of tacos, likely not paid for, in an act of sheer criminal corruption. The Episode ends with a showdown, in the second of the 3-Part premiere story arch.

#### **Episode 3: "The Evil Taco Taker!"**

Sidekick Kid shows up, having tracked down his ally, and spots Pumpkin Head who has the bag of Taco Kingdom tacos. Dubbing the villain "Veggie Guy" for the first time, Sidekick Kid feels a bit of inner rage, not wanting to let it boil over, he helps Hero-Man wallop the taco taker, and the two subdue Pumpkin Head easily. As they enjoy their overdue dinner(a bit cold, but still satisfying), Dr. Servo watches his former Dark Assassin finalize his betrayal and prove that he must move ahead in his villainous schemes.

Agent 33 spots him, but witnesses a Void Portal opening up, and Servo entering it. This sparked Agent 33 to notify the Director, who gave 33 the clearance level to access the AGENCY's files on Void.

### **The Invasion of the City Arc(3 episodes)**

In the second major story arc, the City is invaded by Captain Patches and his pirates, as well as the Stick Army from the world known as the "Stick Sphere". This portion takes place in the City streets and Captain Patches' pirate ship.

#### **Episode 4: "Holy Piracy, Hero-Man!"**

As Hero-Man and Sidekick Kid were on patrol, nights after defeating Pumpkin Head, they spotted the Hero-Signal, and headed down to the latest scene of the crime. This time, Captain Patches--along with several pirates, including "Sludge" and "Mouthy"(who couldn't talk, due to having his tongue cut out, as explained by Sludge). Hero-Man and Sidekick Kid, were outnumbered and captured by the Pirates.

Soon after the Heroic-Combo was taken, Agent 33 arrived, finding a pirate's cutlass. He took it back to the AGENCY where Agent 29 dated it to being from the late 17th Century. 33 contacted the Director, and soon began to dive deeper into the AGENCY's files on Temporal Void.

#### **Episode 5: "Epic Fail on the High Seas!"**

(This episode contains references to Nintendo gaming)

The Heroic-Combo was captured by Patches and his men, who threatened Hero-Man and Sidekick Kid to walk the plank, when Hero-Man came up with a brilliant idea. Breaking the 4th-Wall, he asked the animator to help them out. The animator quickly drew the "Evil Angry Squirrel" who frightened the Pirates, which easily distracted them long enough for Hero-Man to remember Sidekick Kid had a "Super Mario Bros 3" Warp Whistle. Using it, they fled the ship.

Back in the City, an alien spacecraft landed, and the Stick King beamed down. Spotting a store selling "Wii U" Consoles, his Stick Army beamed down, and soon marched into the nearby game store. Agent 33, ever watchful, contacted the Director and was told the Stick Men didn't have evil intentions.

#### **Episode 6: "Pre-Order Peril!"**

(This episode contains references to Nintendo gaming)

Once Hero-Man and Sidekick Kid returned, they saw the Game store had been ransacked of all game consoles. They soon came face to face with the Stick King, who had a simple request before departing. "Gas Money" as Sidekick Kid could read the on-screen subtitles. He gave the Stick King a "Super Mario Bros" gold coin, and the Stick Army left.

As things seemed okay, and after the AGENCY covered the cost of the stolen game systems, Dr. Servo prepared his own plans. The SOCIETY had been keeping tabs on things as well. The Heroes then headed back to the Hero-Cave, where James Bellington, the loyal Magnus Hall butler, awaited. He seemed sad, but Hero-Man/Hammond Magnus, knew that Bellington still missed his wife, Kathleen.

Meanwhile, Captain Patches and his pirates were still being chased endlessly by the Evil Angry Squirrel. Big Cluck showed up, and scared off the Squirrel, who ran away. As thanks, Patches repaid the favor by giving Big Cluck and his Egg Troops the means to begin their own crime wave.

### **The Un-Good Gang Arc**

As the series moved into the "Un-Good Gang" arc, it became clear that Sidekick Kid's past wasn't as hidden as he'd liked. This all takes place in the City(or once-referred to as "n00b York"), and introduces Dr. Servo and Ice-Guy. This is arc runs for the remainder of Season 1, and includes a small sub-plot involving Big Cluck. This also includes the first two Christmas Specials.

#### **Episode 7: "A Sidekick'in Adventure!"**

Sidekick Kid was in the Hero-Cave, when the Hero-Alarm blared. Quickly taking the Hero-Mobile Mach 1 out, when suddenly he saw the source of the emergency. It was Dr. Servo, the man who had kidnapped Pico Bellamere and turned him into Kid Shadow over a year earlier. Sidekick Kid, who had been so horribly brainwashed due to a combination of the Darkness as well as Servo's own twisted means, had the memories implanted that Servo was "his Old mentor-turned-evil". This, of course led to Servo aiming his modified Merc blaster arm, at the now GOOD Sidekick Kid.

As Servo cornered Sidekick Kid, Agent 33 contacted 58, and was sent images of Kid Shadow. He then began to piece the similarities, but had to put that assignment on hold, as the Director had contacted the London office and learned about a new Operation out of Central America--**Operation SHADE.**

#### **Episode 8: "About to Get Servo'ed!"**

Hero-Man, picking up Sidekick Kid on his prototype Hero-Pad, spotted Dr. Servo and swooped down to help his ally against the bizarre villain. Servo quickly retreated, and opened a new Void Portal using a portable remote. Arriving back in the Fortress he asked Ice-Guy if the next phase in his plan was ready. Ice-Guy activated a new A.I. device, and readied to use it to create a new soldier.

As the Heroes returned to the Hero-Cave, Bellington overheard the mentions of Servo, and knew his son Julius was truly lost. He, however, as usual went about keeping up with taking care of Hammond and "Sidekid" as he mistakenly called the Nasharian.

#### **Christmas Special #1(2012): "It's Christmas Time, Hero-Man!"**

As Christmas fell in the City, Hero-Man and Sidekick met up on the roof tops, where they mutually agreed it was "too cold" that Night before Christmas. Down below, Ice-Guy had successfully created and used his A.I. cortexes(similar to the one used by Servo in Pumpkin Head) to create an army of evil Snowmen. The snowmen began to attack the innocent citizens, and take all the presents for a Grinch-like Ice-Guy.

The Heroes swooped down, and arrived at the scene. Luckily, Sidekick Kid reminded Ice-Guy of the "Peace and Joy" of the Holiday Season, and he had a quick "thaw-of-heart" and decided to make his Snowmen army deliver and return the presents to all the Boys and Girls in the City. This didn't go well for Ice-Guy in the end, as Servo wouldn't give him another solo mission. Servo knew Ice-Guy's loyalty was questionable, and had him put through another treatment of a similar "formula" that he'd used on Pico Bellamere.

Meanwhile the Heroes returned to the Hero-Cave, and knew that Servo had a full house. Hero-Man asked Sidekick Kid about Servo, but large parts of the Nasharian's past was still missing.

#### **Episode 9: "n00b York's Finest!"**

As the New Year began, the investigation into Dr. Servo's schemes gather more steam as Hero-Man and Sidekick Kid came across two members of the Un-Good Gang committing more petty theft--Captain Patches and Pumpkin Head, to fund Servo's ultimate scheme: Kid Shadow's return. The Heroic-Combo easily stopped pair of thugs, but they retreated before the final whooping. Pumpkin Head left a letter, addressed to the heroes, and warning the pair that his plans would not be stopped.

In the AGENCY, Agent 58 was brought into the fold, as 33 received another assignment to meet with Hubert Keller, now a General. The Director gave 58 a breakdown of the threats made by the former Agent 24, and 58 soon accepted the mission.

#### **Episode 10: "Double the Trouble, Double the Fun!"**

Dr. Servo sent the Twins, his pair of cloned Repscallians, to the factories on the Outskirts of the City. Hero-Man and Sidekick Kid showed up, spotting the pair looting a warehouse for parts for Ice-Guy's "new and improved" Hack-Bot, and quickly put an end to their crime wave. Mutaform, who had undergone heavy experimentation at the hands of Neuro-Hawk years earlier, had been living in the rundown old building, and spotted Hero-Man, knowing full well the alter-ego of Hammond Magnus.

As the Twins remained, caught in a net after the Heroic-Combo headed back to the Hero-Cave in the Hero-Mobile, Mutaform let them down, under one condition: Telling him all about who they were working for. One twin admitted they were working for Dr. Julius Servo, the other twin showed Mutaform an old image of Julius Bellington, and he immediately knew the rumors from the AGENCY were true. The son of his friend's, the Magnus', butler had betrayed all that was good.

#### **Episode 11: "An Attempted Hacking!"**

(This episode contains references to Nintendo gaming)

Hero-Man and Sidekick Kid were on their way home, when an explosion rocked the City. They arrived in their own unique style, at the scene of the destruction, and saw a new robotic drone attacking. Ice-Guy, though unseen in the episode, was controlling his NEW Hack-Bot. Hero-Man watched as the Hack-Bot threw a crate, and out popped a "Smash Ball"(Item from Super Smash Bros)--grabbing it he summoned his "Final Smash"(another Super Smash Bros reference), and was able to summon his "Ban-Hammer"(with a noticeable "Super Mario Bros" sound effect). Using it, he smashes the Hack-Bot, knocking off it's head.

Defeated once again, Ice-Guy returns, but Servo has already set his plan into effect. Activating another of Ice-Guy's robots, Servo sends the defeated Ice-Guy back, this time as to distract the Heroes from Captain Patches' new mission--to find and corrupt a recently arrived villain, named Big Cluck.

#### **Episode 12: "Attack in n00b York!"**

Ice-Guy returned shortly later, this time with his Snow-Bot. Hero-Man and Sidekick Kid arrived, this time prepared. A quick bit of "animated violence", which caused Ice-Guy to lose the remote control for his robot. Sidekick Kid grabbed it, pushed the lone RED button and seemed to deactivate the Snow-Bot. It was a short-lived victory, as Ice-Guy had a backup plan, and the Snow-Bot reactivated. It sent a blast of icy-air, creating a cloud to cover the villain's retreat.

Hero-Man and Sidekick Kid headed back to the Hero-Cave, investigating more of the mystery behind the Un-Good Gang. Bellington tried to help them, offering advice, but inside, he was holding in the information he knew "Masters Hammond and *Sidekid*" needed to unravel it all.

#### **Episode 13: "A Fowl-Feathered Fiend!"(Part 1/2)**

A night in the Hero-Cave, enjoying delicious tacos led to a sudden call on Sidekick Kid's "Taco Phone" from the Mayor's assistant. There was a crime wave going on at a nearby "Big Cluck'in Hut". They popped in the Hero-Mobile, and confronted the evil side of the chain's mascot--Big Cluck, who was sporting his "Egg Cannon", and had his army of Egg Troops robbing one of his own restaurants. The two readied to do battle, but they were quickly surrounded by Big Cluck and his army.

As the Heroic-Combo found themselves "knee deep in an eggy mess", Dr. Servo reached out to the SOCIETY. He offered them a trade--the technology for Ice-Guy's Hack Bots, for anything they had on the Iglesian Order. The Controller met with Servo, and an exchange was made. Dr. Servo used the new files to understand more about Pico Bellamere, and the House of Bellamere. He knew, that even if he was somehow defeated, Lord Skarn would be released from his Stasis Chamber soon, and with the files on the Iglesian Order, he knew Lord Skarn's true origins.

#### **Episode 14: "Something's A-Fowl in n00b York!"(Part 2/2)**

Hero-Man and Sidekick Kid finally took the offensive, and cracked the Egg Troops, and turned towards Big Cluck, who knew he was defeated as his Egg Cannon's batteries died. He, and his cracked Egg Troops, fled back to the Outskirts. Hero-Man and Sidekick celebrated with a quick Taco Kingdom run, and it seemed like the City was once again safe.

The AGENCY had sent 58 to check on the situation with the mystery surrounding Big Cluck and the similarly named restaurant chain. 58 reported back to 33, who told him about the alien Chicken. Meanwhile, the Director began to look into the Void Portals that had sent Neuro-Hawk, and his granddaughter Angel Stargazer into the Void Abyss, and Haven, respectively. He contacted the AGENCY London office, and received all they had on Haven.

#### **Christmas Special #2(2013): "It's a Pirate'd Christmas!"**

(This episode contains references to Nintendo gaming)(

Christmas arrived in the City again, and as Hero-Man returned to the Hero-Cave with some extra spicy tacos, for Sidekick Kid's cold, he spotted him watching a "Cheesy Christmas Special". Putting the excitement to the side, the Hero-Alarm went off, as it looked like the City's police took another Holiday off. Arriving at another would-be-stolen Christmas, the Heroic-Combo spotted another imposter Santa. This time it was "Santa Patches", and a few elf-like Pirates who were taking all the Christmas presents they could. The two took out Captain "Peaches", as Hero-Man got another randomly wrapped "Smash Ball" and used it to summon his "Ban Hammer" which took Patches out, and saved Christmas.

Once Hero-Man and Sidekick Kid returned the presents, in their own way(which meant stuffing them into chimneys, as Sidekick Kid clearly couldn't fit down like Santa), they headed back to the Hero-Cave to enjoy the Holiday. Defeated once more, Captain Patches left to his ship, where Dr. Servo was awaiting. Servo, tired of failure-after-failure, had enough. It was time to put his plan into full effect.

#### **Episode 15: "The Un-Good Gang!"(Season Finale)**

Sending Pumpkin Head and the Twins to initiate his grand scheme to recapture Sidekick Kid, Dr. Servo set a trap. But Sidekick Kid was back at the Hero-Cave while Hero-Man was out patrolling. After Sidekick Kid's pleas for tacos, Hero-Man was speeding in the Hero-Mobile when he picked up a trace of something on it's scanners. Spotting the minions of Servo, who were once again committing petty theft, Hero-Man swooped in and surprised Pumpkin Head with a good boot-to-the-face. Questioning the foes, Hero-Man asked were Servo was. Suddenly he appeared, and the Un-Good Gang captured Hero-Man.

As Hero-Man was captured, Sidekick Kid began to grow worried and contacted Hero-Man. There was no answer on his Hero-Communicator Watch, so Sidekick Kid began to search all the City cameras and surveillance programs in the Hero-Cave's vast array of computers. While Sidekick Kid searched, Agent 33 contacted the Director, who used his connections at the London AGENCY office to link to an interstellar satellite that had a direct relay to the home world of the Stick Men. A world known as the "Stick Sphere".

### **"Hero-Man: The Movie"**

#### **The Prologue--Part One**

In the ultimate ending to the First Season, Sidekick Kid is waiting in the Hero-Cave for his good friend, when he receives a call on the Taco Phone. It's Dr. Servo, who has captured Hero-Man, and gives Sidekick Kid a hint, which triggers a flashback of when Kid Shadow first came across Hero-Man. In the events taking place shortly after Angel Stargazer aided Hero-Man in defeating Neuro-Hawk, Hero-Man hears an explosion. Going to investigate, he spots a rocket launcher-wielding Black and Blue-suited foe, Kid Shadow. After explaining the basic nature of Good and Evil, Hero-Man swayed the brainwashed Nasharian, who was intrigued by the idea of his first Taco. The two, shaking hands, joined forces and within the next several months became the Heroic-Combo of Hero-Man and Sidekick Kid.

#### **Kid Shadow's Return--Part Two**

Sidekick Kid, hopping on his recently designed "Sidekick Cycle", cut through the City streets, full of anger and rage as he tracked down Dr. Servo to where the Hero-Computer traced the source of the call. Arriving on the Outskirts, at the Fortress of Bad Things, The Twins were shocked to see Sidekick Kid, but were too afraid to get in his way, believing Kid Shadow had returned. They opened the main doors, and Sidekick Kid entered, and found his old Kid Shadow uniform. Putting it on, he could feel the anger and darkness seeping into his mind, as he didn't hold back as Ice-Guy showed up. Knocking out the first of the Un-Good Gang, Ice-Guy with his Boomerang, Kid Shadow had returned. One of Servo's new Hack-Bots had activated, trying to sneak up on Kid Shadow, but with his robotic left arm, ripping his uniform to reveal the hand and arm that had been replaced years earlier, he quickly destroyed the robot. It was then that Dr. Servo appeared, Kid Shadow threatened the man who had ruined his life, but Servo's failsafe implanted in the mind of Pico Bellamere, meant that Kid Shadow could not move. Kid Shadow questioned Servo's plans, and the mention of Servo's "Back-up plan" which was already in the works, sparked another memory from Pico Bellamere's past.

#### **Part Three--The Heroic-Combo**

Hero-Man, held captive by Servo looked as the doors to the Lab opened, and he saw Kid Shadow had returned, with Dr. Servo back in command. Trying his best to convince his friend, Kid Shadow was ordered to destroy Hero-Man. But thanks to the Twins mistake of not getting rid of the Taco Kingdom they'd bought earlier, Hero-Man tried to appeal to Sidekick Kid's one saving grace---Tacos. Servo, angry and wondering who'd brought tacos, warned Kid Shadow to NOT even touch the tacos, and order him to release Hero-Man and take the hero's place. Servo's plan to return Kid Shadow to being his Dark Assassin wasn't looking so "un-good" anymore, and before he knew it, the "delicious, crispy, tasty" tacos were consumed by the returned Sidekick Kid. Hero-Man cheered as Sidekick Kid freed him from the holding field, and the Heroic-Combo looked to take out Servo finally.

#### **Part Four--Good Vs. Un-Good**

Side-by-side again, Hero-Man and Sidekick Kid finally put an end to the Un-Good Gang. Hero-Man took out Pumpkin Head, bashing the veggie-villain once and for all. While Sidekick Kid used his Hot Sauce cannon to distract, then boomerang to knock out Captain Patches. Soon, Dr. Servo realized he was alone, and had wasted not only money on "HOW-TO-BE-A-SUPERVILLIAN" books online, as well as time, but had been fully defeated. The AGENCY's Director had contacted the Stick Army, and suddenly Sidekick Kid's Taco Phone rang, just as Dr. Servo was beamed about the Stick Army's Saucer. The Stick King, who had called the Taco Phone, told Sidekick Kid that Servo was to be put to trial on the Stick Sphere for his crimes against them, and many other worlds for his use of Void Portal technology, and many, many other intergalactic crimes. And like that, Servo and the Un-Good Gang was defeated. Hero-Man, seeing that Sidekick Kid was still looking remorseful, asked what was wrong. Sidekick Kid's answer was simply they were "out of tacos", so the two hit the nearest Taco Kingdom drive-thru.

#### **Part Five--Epilogue**

Returning, with Sushi Nachos and plenty of tacos, Hero-Man and Sidekick Kid arrived back in the Hero-Cave. Bellington, knowing that his son Julius(Servo) had done such horrible things, nearly turning "Master Sidekid" evil, had grown sadder, but brought extra nacho cheese as he saw Hammond and Pico happy again. Sidekick Kid, enjoying his nachos, questioned what they'd do now(as well as a reference to Hero-Man's brother in the original spin-off canon, based around the "Wii-Pals Cartoon Show"). Hero-Man wasn't sure, but knew there were more things coming soon. As the heroes stopped Servo, the AGENCY was on clean-up. Agent 29 and 33 worked on tracking down the Twins as well as Captain Patches. Patches had fled, along with his pirates, back to their Ship. The Twins were taken by the AGENCY, and interrogated. Soon after the events that had unfolded, the Twins escaped through a hijacked Void Portal generator. As for Ice-Guy, he regained his mind and sanity, and returned to his home country of Poland. As for Pumpkin Head, his A.I. implants were destroyed from Hero-Man's boot-kick, and he was just yard debris.

#### **Part Six--The Rise of Skarn**

With Servo, and the Un-Good Gang taken out, the now intergalactically-under-arrest, former Agent 24, son of James and Kathleen Bellington, and nephew of Quincy Bellington, had his Back-Up Plan activated. Inside the Stasis Chamber he'd been placed in, years ago as he arrived from Nashar, after suffering wounds at the hands of Pico Bellamere, Lord Skarn of the Repscallian Army, arose from his rest and emerged from the Chamber. He felt renewed, but did not see his savior anywhere. Walking slowly, regaining his footing, he activated the computers he remembered Servo using years earlier, and saw the Portal Generator slowly begin to work. As the Portal opened, he saw the destruction he'd unleashed as Nashar's irradiated sky came into view. Knowing he had a new chance, and his resources waiting for him on Nashar, Skarn was ready to take over yet another world.
