History[]
Captain Underpants and the Big Bad Battle of the Bionic Booger Boy - Part 1: The Night of the Nasty Nostril Nuggets[]
After the Bionic Booger Boy is defeated by Sulu, Melvin's parents arrive at the scene with the Combine-O-Tron 2000. As per George's request, Gaylord Sneedly switches the batteries of the Combine-O-Tron 2000 around and separates the robot and snot from Melvin. However, Melvin is partially fused with Mr. Krupp. They are subsequently unfused by a second blast. However, the two begin acting strangely. Mr. Krupp says that George and Harold are immature while boasting about the Combine-O-Tron 2000 saving the city, and Melvin yells that he will punish George and Harold. The robotic snot components come to life as the Robo-Boogers, destroy the Combine-O-Tron 2000, and chase after George, Harold, Mr. Krupp, Melvin, and Sulu.
Captain Underpants and the Big, Bad Battle of the Bionic Booger Boy - Part 2: The Revenge of the Ridiculous Robo-Boogers[]
The Robo-Boogers are still chasing the five, George Beard, Harold Hutchins, Melvin Sneedly/Kruppy the Kid, Sulu, and Mr. Krupp/Captain Underpants/Mr. Melvin. Sulu saves them, swallowing the Robo-Boogers and spitting them out to Uranus. Mr. Krupp and Melvin continue to act weird, with Melvin demanding coffee from Ms. Anthrope, resulting in him being hung by his underwear from a coat hanger. George and Harold realize that as an unwanted side-effect, Mr. Krupp and Melvin's brains were switched around. Melvin (nicknamed Mr. Melvin, as he is in Mr. Krupp's body) explains that it will take six months to build a new Combine-O-Tron 2000. Kruppy the Kid balks at this, as he has a school to run, but Mr. Melvin explains that building a Combine-O-Tron 2000 isn't as easy as building a robot or a time machine or a PATSY. George suggests that Melvin instead builds a time machine, which will take only a day or two, and take the Combine-O-Tron before it gets destroyed.
Melvin takes credit for this idea, but snaps his fingers, causing Kruppy the Kid (Mr. Krupp in Melvin's body) to turn into Captain Underpants (But because Mr. Krupp's brain is inside Melvin's body, he is dubbed Captain Kruppy The Underpants Kid). George and Harold try to stop this, but they are too late, and Mr. Melvin witnesses Captain Underpants (Captain Kruppy the Underpants Kid) fly out the window. Mr. Melvin then makes George and Harold tell him everything about Captain Underpants.
After George and Harold have retrieved the Combine-O-Tron 2000 from the day before yesterday, Mr. Melvin asks Captain Underpants (Captain Kruppy the Underpants Kid) to come into his offfice for a "photo". After this, the two are returned to their original bodies. However, Melvin keeps Captain Underpants' powers, and subsequently adopts the moniker 'Big Melvin'
