Baron von Baddie, an evil genius, captures his nemesis, Captain Kapow, and unleashes chaos with ice-cream-stealing robots and more. But mischief loses its charm, and the Baron finds himself missing the thrill of their rivalry. Could a villain and a superhero find common ground in friendship? Dive into this whimsical tale where the lines between good and evil blur, and discover if winning is truly everything.
From the publisher
When evil genius Baron von Baddie accidentally captures superhero Captain Kapow, he immediately sets about making mischief. He rearranges the days of the week, unleashes an army of ice-cream-stealing robots, and binges on doughnuts. But before long, the Baron gets a bit bored with his evil extravaganza. Could it be that he misses tangling with his old archnemesis? Yep, turns out even villains need their superheroes. Perfect for kids who will eventually enjoy graphic novels, here is a warm, funny book that proves when it comes to friendship, winning isn’t everything.
