The Vexing Villainy of the Vile Vimpire is the fourth episode of The Epic Tales of Captain Underpants.

Synopsis

After Erica criticizes their latest comic, as payback, George and Harold make a mean comic book featuring her as the fun-draining Vimpire! However, the creature arises in the form of Jessica when Melvin Sneedly uses her as a test subject for uploading (bad) videos--which only he finds funny since his sense of humor is atrocious--into the brain of his crush, Erica!

Trivia

  • The Blisskrieg 2000 is named after the World War II German tatic blitzkrieg, which translates to "lightning war".
  • Not only does Jessica treat Other Sophie worse than Sophie One, as a villain, she calls Captain Underpants a baby, then she yells at Harold after George throws a loaf of bread at him, like in "Bread Attack."
  • This is the first time everybody hates the comic George and Harold make, as its plot degraded Erica.
  • Moral: Treat others as you wish to be treated. 
  • At the end of the episode, George, Harold, and Erica collaborate together to make a hero named Plungerina, who plays a major role in "The Problematic Pandemonium of the Punishing Plungerina".
  • The eighth chapter's name, Fangs for the Memories, is a reference to the song "Thanks for the Memories" by the popular boy band, Fall Out Boy.

Goofs

  • There is a scene where a boy crumbles up a copy of "Captain Underpants and the Sinister Frights of Scarica Fang", despite the fact that he's not a girl.
    • It's possible that he feels bad for Erica because he saw the comic as offensive to females.
    • Or he's a reverse tomboy.
  • In the scene where Captain Underpants cries after the Vimpire bites him, none of his tears manage to touch his face and turn him back into Mr. Krupp.
