Bookroo's summary

In Arlington, a virus transforms people into villains, threatening chaos. Hyperactive Julio 'Flinch' Escala, the only unaffected NERD, must lead the team for the first time. Can he focus and stop the spread by entering the mind of its creator, Heathcliff Hodges? With the world at stake, Flinch faces his greatest challenge yet.

From the publisher

New York Times bestselling author Michael Buckley’s The Villain Virus is the fourth book in the hilarious NERDS series. If you’re looking for a funny illustrated series to enjoy alongside favorites such as Dog Man, Diary of a Wimpy Kid, and The Last Kids on Earth books, NERDS delivers! Supervillain (and former NERD) Heathcliff Hodges transformed himself into an all-powerful giant head, and now he’s unconscious in the HQ basement. Though he’s knocked out, the villain population skyrockets in just a few short days. Normal people get a cold and then suddenly develop insane alter egos and come up with elaborate plans to take over the world. Even the NERDS are vulnerable to the spread of villainy–all except hyperactive Julio “Flinch” Escala. But he’s never led the team before. Can he focus on more than his next candy bar . . . and save the world? NERDS series: National Espionage, Rescue, and Defense Society (#1) M is for Mama’s Boy (#2) The Cheerleaders of Doom (#3) The Villain Virus (#4) Attack of the BULLIES (#5)
