    About this ebook

    Melvin Beederman is fresh out of bad guys to catch. Or is he? Little does he know that trouble is brewing in a dressing room at a large department store . . .

    Devious and sinister Valley girls Chantele and Brittany aren't just trying on clothes. They're hatching a totally cool plan to take over the city. Will Melvin and Candace be outsmarted by two not-so-smart girls from the Valley?

      FIRST LAIR ON THE LEFT

      Up, up, and away.

      Crash!

      Up, up, and away.

      Splat!

      Up, up, and away.

      Thud!

      Up, up, and away.

      Kabonk!

      This was how superhero Melvin Beederman always started his day—by trying to get off the ground and not doing a very good job of it. Actually, he started his day like everyone else in the world did—by waking up. Then he had a pretzel or two with his pet rat Hugo while watching a rerun of their favorite TV show, The Adventures of Thunderman.

      But when he went to work it was fall-on-his-face time. It was crash-splat-thud-kabonk time.

      Pretty embarrassing for a graduate of the Superhero Academy!

      Melvin was up and flying on the fifth try and waved good-bye to Hugo. Hold down the fort, big guy. I’m off to save the world.

      Squeak, replied the rat. This either meant As long as I have pretzels I’ll do anything you say. Or maybe it was Don’t take any wooden Fig Newtons.

      Melvin was never really sure what Hugo was saying. He was just glad to have somebody to watch cartoons with.

      Leave some pretzels for me, Melvin said as he zoomed away from his tree house hideout toward downtown Los Angeles. He was the superhero in charge of the city, along with his partner in uncrime, Candace Brinkwater.

      Candace was not a graduate of the Superhero Academy. She lived in a normal house with a normal family and went to a normal school. But she was anything but normal. After all, she had once scored 500 points in a single game of basketball. She could run the hundred-yard dash in three and a half seconds. She was the only third-grader who could fly.

      Melvin and Candace combined forces every day after she got out of school. Until then he was on his own.

      *   *   *

      Melvin flew over the city. It was a fine day for flying and a fine day for catching bad guys. It was not a fine day for seeing everyone’s underwear. But that is what Melvin saw. He couldn’t turn off his x-ray vision, so as he zoomed across the city and looked down he saw underwear—all sizes, all colors. And not all of it was clean. Some even had holes!

      Holy underwear! Melvin said, trying to look away. That’s disgusting.

      Holy underwear, indeed! It was disgusting. Even to the narrator.

      "Now to catch a few
