[music ends]

And who are you?

Let's just say I'm the person you need the most right now.

I enjoyed watching you try to show off with your comic book.

It was humorous watching you try to be powerful

when in actuality, you're just a disgrace.

Oh, yeah?

Call this a disgrace?

Sparkules!

In the name of my father,

I shall strike you down with mighty lightning and-- [yelps]

[shouts]

What the-- [panting]

[shouts, stammers] What are you?

A friend.

I didn't bring you here to fight.

I brought you here to give you a present.

[panting]

[chuckles]

[grunts]

[laughing]

[students] Whoa!

A superhero fight in our school? Huh. Now I've seen everything.

[students clamoring]

You don't think anybody could tell it's me, do you?

No way. Nobody would ever suspect a dork like you to be a Reader.

-What's a Reader? -Hmm.

Dude! Do you even 51 library?

Do I have to explain everything cool to you?

[Internet personality] Look, I've got freaking evidence.

Videos of people controlling actual superheroes

by reading comic books.

All these heroes have one thing in common.

They're summoned and controlled by people.

So, because I'm a freaking genius,

I came up with a totally original name for these comic books

and the people reading them.

I call them Hero Books and Readers.

Uh…

He also says Readers might be space aliens,

but to be fair, he says that about everything.

[student] Ugh, Super Awesome Man? Who comes up with a name like that?

Whoever he is, I'd sure like to meet him.

Lucy wants to meet me.

[sighs]

[groans]

Mike. Why didn't you tell me what happened at your school?

Mom. Uh, what happened?

A giant, nearly world-ending dance-off. Superheroes.

Oh, yeah. That happened, but it's no big deal.

Mike. This story could be my big break.

If you know anything, I need to know.

[sighs]

I didn't see anything.

I was in the bathroom the whole time.

You know, bad burrito. [chuckles]

Bad burrito.

[sighs] I understand.

[sighs]

-[phone vibrates] -Hmm?

Hmm.

[groaning] This thing really chafes in the rear.

Focus.

Apparently there's been a string of pickpocketings in the area.

So?

So, it's one thing if a random tourist loses his wallet,

but an entire crowd?

In 30 seconds?

Okay, I admit that's weird,

but the pickpocket has to be long gone by now.

No worries! Remember what we did with Ed?

We do the same thing here.

Find the suspect and then judge them in the name of justice.

Wait, we don't have any suspects, much less the usual ones.

And it's not like a clue will just drop on our heads.

[grunts, groans]

[both] Huh?

Hmm. [groans]

[Hummingbird Man sighs] May we go?

Standing still, she is not one of my favorite activities.

-Quiet! -Huh?

This is our worst haul yet.

-[gasps] That's them! -Huh?

Do your hero thing.

Okay.

Crying Man!

[chuckles]

Oh, hey, Nick. Mike.

Crying Man, we need to catch that pickpocket.

Which one?

The guy in the rainbow spandex or the giant wrestler?

Hmm? I don't see a giant wrestler.

He's right there.

["Great Finger" playing]

[X] Finger. Get him.

-[gasps] -Diving Crusher!

[Hummingbird Man shouts]

-[shouts] -[gasps]

-[X grunts] -What the--

Hand over the comic book.

Easy. I'll hand over the comic.

It's right here.

[whimpers]

[whimpers] Wait for me, Senor Hannigan.

-[chuckles] -Finger. Let's go.

I don't know who she is, but she is my new favorite Reader.

[gulps] I sure hope she's on our side.

[panting]

Great Finger. Comicalize: Almighty Finger Flick!

Oh, yeah!

[panting] Prepare to go to Pain Town. Population, you.

-[Hannigan panting] -[whimpering]

[exclaims] Almighty…

[screams] Feather Glove!

[Great Finger] …Finger Flick!

[screams, grunts]

[music ends]

[screams]

[breathing heavily]

[panting] Okay then.

Lucky. Let's go!

[roars]

This party is no fun.

I shall make my very fabulous escape.

Wait for me, idiot.

-[grunts] -[exclaims]

[groans] Get their scent, boy. Sic 'em.

We gotta go after them.

[Lucky growls]

[chuckles, blow raspberry]

-[X groans] -Don't worry. We're here to assist.

-[Crying Man crying] -Crying Man…

Tear Split!

[Crying Man grunts]

[shouts]

-What are you doing? -Oh.

The book is mine. Back off.

What the heck does that mean?

We're trying to help you!

-[Mike] Hey! -Huh?

Get lost! Lucky.

We're on the same team.

-Hmm? -Huh?

[growls]

[both grunt]

What's your problem, huh?

[panting] How could they leave me?

Hmm?

[shouts]

[screams]

-Huh? [screams] -[screams]

[whimpering]

-[Hummingbird Man, Hannigan scream] -[horn honks]

Whoa. No, no, no, no.

[narrator on TV] Some species of--

[Hummingbird Man whimpering]

[Hannigan shouts]

-Uh… -[growls]

-[sniffs] -[X] That way.

Huh?

Oh, hi, guys.

Uh, sorry. [chuckles]

See you at school!

[X] Why don't you just give up? [grunts]

-Huh? -Huh?

[both panting]

[grunts] The brake is broken!

[roars]

[grunts] You keep up nicely for such a plumpy body.

-Oh… [coos] …that's a good boy. -[panting]

You hideous thing.

Lucky. Snap out of it!

[growls]

[Hummingbird Man shouting]

[passengers gasp, exclaim]

[growls]

[screams, strains]

[shouts]

-[tires screech] -[drivers clamoring]

-There! -[gasps]

Crying Man, you take care of the cars,

and I'll handle the people by, uh--

I'll think of something.

You got it, Mike.

[panting] Everyone, run! Run for your lives!

Tear Blast! [crying]

Come on, lady.

You need to get out now.

[grunts]

Lousy seat belt.

Mike, no! [panting]

[breathing heavily] Mike!

Oh.

[bystanders applauding]

You okay?

[sighs, groans] Yes, I am. Thank you.

That's a relief.

[inhales deeply] That's it. This ends now. Crying Man, let's go.

Right with you!

[pedestrians screaming]

[grunts] Hey, are you trying to kill everyone?

Huh? Don't wanna wait your turn? Fine.

I'll take you down first.

-[gasps] No time for that. Look! -[all gasp]

[passengers scream]

We're heading for the ocean.

We gotta stop this thing!

Let's just go already!

Okey dokey.

Feather Glove! Whoa.

-[Mike] Huh? -No. Lucky. Take him out!

-[screaming] -[Hannigan grunts]

[X] Let's go, Lucky.

Wait. What about the tram?

[X] I'm getting that book first!

What kind of hero are you?

What are we gonna do?

Uh…

Aha! I got an idea. I saw it in a movie, like, a hundred times.

Crying Man. Return.

Mummy Girl.

[grunts]

We need to stop the tram.

Can you make a bandage net?

I am the princess of the desert. I can make anything.

[pants]

Hold on.

[passengers whimpering]

Comicalize: Jewel of the Nile!

Jewel of the Nile!

[driver grunts]

[screaming]

Hang on. Just a little more.

[straining]

[groans]

[panting]

Is everyone okay?

You all right?

[cheering] All right!

[chuckles] I did it.

[groans]

[Hummingbird Man groans]

[X] Gotcha.

[creaking]

Hey! Look out!

[bystander] There's a kid up there. No!

[bystanders screaming]

No, no, no!
