Plot

Radioactive Man is telling his origin story again. Bug Boy is jealous, so Captain Squid lets him tell his life story, but he does not want to do it in public. Bug Boy takes the readers to his secret lab and tells his story. His real name is Bix 32-22-7 and he comes from the planet Cranium-4. A few weeks after his second birthday at 42nd Hiveminder Station, he managed to produce chocolates. The Hiveminders were disappointed, and it turned out that he had only an IQ of 350. Bug Boy realizes that he must do something to increase his IQ. He looks through a telescope at the Earth, and sees the world's largest potato, which he intends to turn into chocolate. He borrows a Moonspeeeder X-10 and installs the interdimensional tubes as a power source. Bug Boy flies away at lightning speed, and crash-lands on a farm. He is sold to a freak show and then becomes a TV star and starts lecturing at Harvard when he is not fighting crime. He is interrupted by some flies that are picking on him. Bug Boy gets angry, but is interrupted by Radioactive Man, who needs his help. He sees the flies and slams them before they reveal his secret. Then they go to help Squid, who is trapped in the drip filter again.
