He is the crispy bacon of vengeance that sizzles in the night. He is the Cheeto(R) dust that stains the fingers of injustice.
He is Alex Portobello, an inventive eighth grader who spends his time reading comic books, butting heads with his classmates and teachers, building incredible gadgets, designing his own martial art, and discussing the skin-moistening effects of soaking one's feet in Pepto Bismol.(R)
Unbeknownst to Alex, his superhuman intelligence is the product of a bizarre experiment: his brain's been irradiated by a weird energy core! Once the experiment reaches its zenith, Alex finishes his arsenal of gadgets and becomes a spandex-clad crime-fighter, waging war on the criminals of Cremini City as the Black Walrus.
But the flatulence of crime won't dissipate without a fight. In order to save his city from a rising tide of evil, Alex must defeat the sinister Birthday Gang, outwit a peculiar zookeeper who may be on to his secret identity, and contend with a mysterious foe threatening to turn Cremini City into his personal criminal empire.
Adventure awaits!
