About this deal

He, Mr. Krupp, George, and Harold are the only characters to appear in every episode of The Epic Tales of Captain Underpants.

Miss Singerbrains – Miss Singerbrains is the librarian at Jerome Horwitz Elementary School who banned all but one of the books in the library and eventually closed down the library. Her name is a pun on saying she is "missing her brains." Captain Underpants and the Big, Bad Battle of the Bionic Booger Boy, Part 2: The Revenge of the Ridiculous Robo-Boogers (2003) In college, Dav met a teacher who encouraged him to illustrate and write. He won a national competition in 1986 and the prize was the publication of his first book, World War Won. He made many other books before being awarded the 1998 California Young Reader Medal for Dog Breath, which was published in 1994, and in 1997 he won the Caldecott Honor for The Paperboy. The series has frequently been compared with the Horace Splattly series, [37] [38] [39] [40] [41] but not always positively.

George Beard and Harold Hutchins – Two clever fourth-grade pranksters, who are: best friends, next-door neighbors, and the main protagonists of the series. They started a comic book company called "Treehouse Comix, Inc.", and every so often at school they sneak to the secretary's office to make copies of their latest comic book and sell them on the playground for 50 cents. They are the class clowns in 4th grade at Jerome Horwitz Elementary School (named for Curly of the Three Stooges), a school which discourages imagination and fun, located in Piqua, Ohio. They often get in trouble and serious events with Mr. Krupp. Harold's birthday is March 6, 1986, and George's is July 11, 1986. After time travel antics, duplicates of them are created in the present, referred to as Yesterday George and Yesterday Harold. After the original duo travel to the future, they find their others selves to have become graphic novel creators. Future Yesterday George married a white woman named Lisa and had two mixed-race children named Meena and Nik. Future Yesterday Harold married a man named Billy and had adopted twin children named Owen and Kei. George's parents are named Moses and Barbara, while Harold's mother is named Grace. George's grandmother and Harold's grandfather appear in the eighth book, where they unknowingly drink the last of the superpower juice while reading a comic the boys created where they are the heroes. They later transform into the same heroes to defend George and Harold from Captain Blunderpants and profess their love to each other, much to the boys' disgust. In the adaptations, their personalities are mostly unchanged, but they now usually only prank to entertain their schoolmates and treat Captain Underpants more as a friend than a last resort. In the film, they are respectively voiced by Kevin Hart and Thomas Middleditch and by Ramone Hamilton and Jay Gragnani in the series. Ms. Dayken – Ms. Dayken is a member of the teaching board at Jerome Horwitz Elementary school. Her name is a pun on the word "mistaken." In the film, she is voiced by Susan Fitzer and was George and Harold's kindergarten teacher where she teaches about the planets, including " Uranus," which the boys find very amusing. The permanent maker the kids drew on Mr. Krupp and Mr. Rected's faces resembles Gene Simmons's and Paul Stanley's makeup from KISS. Some of the messages of this book were kind of disturbing to me as a parent. I hate the idea that my daughter may think that we would be happy with a brainwashed version of her that behaved perfectly, just because this book implies that this is what all parents want. I have talked to her about it but I'm not sure she's convinced that we prefer her the way she is. After all, we keep trying to teach her manners and such, right? :( I get that "kids good, grownups bad" is a popular trope to use for children's books, but this one really goes a bit too far. In Book 3, it is revealed that he knows of his missions and heroics in the Treehouse Comix books George and Harold wrote of him. This is likely because, as discovered in Book 1, Mr. Krupp has taken away every issue of their Captain Underpants comics and has them in storage. (implying at some point he has read them all).

Overview

His attire is nothing more than a pair of white briefs and a red polka-dotted cape fashioned from curtains. In the book series and movie, Captain Underpants' cape always looks the same, while in the Netflix series, it changes design depending on what type of fabric he uses for it. He will not fight without his cape, so it is very important he wears one.
