How did you find us? Wesley Wyndam Pryce
First Name: Melvin
Last Name: Ferd
Age: 20’s
Height/Weight: 7’/210lbs
Eyes: Brown
Hair: Bold
Character description/personality: Before the accident, Melvin was a 90 pound weakling, devoid of good looks, charm, or basic hygiene. After the accident, his appearance was changed dramatically, growing to 7 feet tall and gaining incredible strength. But mostly his entire body turned green and mutated into massively deformed monster. Despite his dramatic change, Melvin maintained his good nature, his sense of humor, and a sense of right and wrong. However, whenever he’s around evil, he tends to go on murderous killing sprees.
Persuasion: Force for good
Type of Creature: A hideously deformed creature of superhuman size and strength
Powers: Melvin has gain incredible superhuman strength, able to crush a man down to the size of a basketball or stop a speeding bus full of kids. His body is full of Troma particles, which not only do they make Melvin radioactive, but alert him to when evil was around and complied him to destroy it. This also makes him immue to fire, bullets, explosions, and radiation. He is always armed with his trusty mop.
Weaknesses: He is susceptible to Anti-Troma particles, which weaken the Troma particles in his system. Also, like any male, a hit in his crotch hurts just a bad, as do several from a careless blind girl.
History: Melvin Ferd was a stereotypical 98-pound weakling. He works as a janitor at a health club in the fictional town of Tromaville, New Jersey. There, he is tormented by his customers, particularly Bozo, Slug, Wanda, and Julie, who harass and tease him constantly. One day they trick Melvin into wearing a pink tutu and kissing a sheep. He is chased around the health club by other customers and out a second story window. He lands in a drum of toxic waste, which immediately causes severe burns and disfigurement. Despite the burning chemicals even causing him to burst into flames, Melvin survives, and stumbles home. Drawing a bath to try and scrub some of the chemical residue from his horribly scarred flesh, Melvin begins his transformation into a hideously deformed creature of superhuman size and strength.
Elsewhere, a group of drug dealers, led by the criminal Cigar Face, are harassing a police officer by the name of O'Clancy, trying to buy him off. When he refuses to accept the money, Cigar Face and his gang attack and brutalize him. Then, just as they prepare to castrate Officer O'Clancy, a large creature comes out of nowhere and violently kills the criminals, then leaves a mop on their faces as a call sign (Cigar Face survives, but has had his testicles smashed by the creature.) Officer O'Clancy is initially terrified of the creature but soon learns he was only trying to help him as the creature approaches him and politely apologizes for his behavior as he's "never done this sort of thing before".
The officer's rescuer, dubbed the "Monster Hero", is the now profoundly mutated Melvin. He tries to return home but his mother is terrified of him and will not let him in the house. Wracked with sorrow, the Monster Hero builds a makeshift home in the junkyard. Mayor Belgoody, Mayor of Tromaville and leader of the crime ring in town, is shocked at the deaths of some of his goons but is still confident that the Monster will not come looking for him, hoping that one of his goons with kill him eventually.
Elsewhere in Tromaville, a gang of three men are holding up a Mexican Food restaurant. The men kill one of the patrons, and attack a blind woman named Sarah. They kill her guide dog and attempt to rape her, but are stopped by the Monster Hero. He wreaks bloody vengeance on the three men: one is stuffed in an oven, one has his hands and wrists plunged into a deep-fryer, and one is first covered in whipped cream (and a cherry) before having a milkshake-stirrer rammed into his throat. The Monster Hero takes Sarah back to her home, where they begin to get to know one another, and progressively fall in love.
The Monster Hero returns to the Health Club, killing a drug dealer by crushing his face with a weight lifting machine. There, he attacks popular girl Wanda, one of his tormentors that had caused his transformation. Afterwards, the Monster is relieving himself in a back alley when a limo pulls up and a pimp tries to push a 12-year-old girl onto him. When he starts to fight back to save the girl, a group of men come out of the limo; he fights them all off and saves the girl. The Monster Hero soon starts building up a friendly reputation in Tromaville by doing all sorts of "superhero" work, from saving two younger boys from Bozo's group, to even helping the elderly to cross the street, to even opening peanut jars!
Meanwhile Mayor Belgoody is becoming more and more aware about what is happening to his goons, as not only are they being killed one-by-one by the Monster Hero, but some of them are also turning themselves in for their own safety. He is now worried that their deaths will lead up to him sooner than he expects and wants the Monster Hero to be taken care of. One night, Cigar Face returns (covered in bandages and casts) and brings along a new group of Belgoody's goons to surround the Monster with guns. Before they fire on him he jumps up to a fire escape, and they end up shooting and killing each other.
The Monster Hero returns to the health club again and attacks Julie, another one of his tormentors who were responsible for what happened to him. Soon afterwards, he confronts the last of his tormentors, Bozo and Slug, (whom have attacked an old woman and stolen her car.) Bozo and Slug try to run him over, but the Monster jumps on top of the car and grabs Slug, crushing his neck and throwing him out of the moving car. The Monster then confronts Bozo, grabbing him by the face and terrifies him by revealing himself as Melvin from the accident to a horrified Bozo. After several accidents that occur because of Bozo's driving, the Monster tears off the wheel to the car causing Bozo to drive off the side of a cliff. The car crashes and bursts into flames, burning Bozo alive but unaffecting the monster.
One day when the Monster Hero kills a seemingly innocent old woman in a dry cleaning store (It's later revealed that she is in fact a leader of an underground white slave trade) the Monster Hero wanders back to his junkyard home, revealing his true identity to Sarah and feeling terrified and guilty for what he has become. Sarah however tells Melvin that she still loves him no matter what he looks like and the two decide to move away from the city and take a tent into nearby woods.
However, Belgoody finds out about the Monster Hero's "mishap" and uses this opportunity to call in the National Guard in hopes of finally killing him. Soon Sarah and the Monster are discovered in the woods and now surrounded by both the National Guard and the townspeople. The Mayor comes, intent on killing him (whereas the National Guard's request was originally for capture,) but thanks to the Monster's kind duties to the town, the people of Tromaville will have none of it. The Mayor's evil ways are exposed after he threatens to kill Officer O'Clancy for trying to take his gun away from him, and the Monster Hero proceeds to rip out Belgoody's organs to see if he has "any guts". The movie ends with the townspeople's celebration at the Monster's acceptance and a reassuring epilogue that wherever evil brews in Tromaville, Melvin the Monster Hero, now dubbed the "Toxic Avenger," will be there to protect the town.
5 years, the Toxic Avenger is lured to Tokyo, Japan by the evil corporation Apocalypse Inc., thinking that he would find his long lost father. So while the Toxic Avenger is fighting crime in Tokyo looking for his father, Apocalypse Inc. spread evil in Tromaville . Toxie soon finds the man that bore his father’s name, only to discover his was a drug trafficker, a murderer, and a really bad guy in a diaper. He easy fights off his father’s henchmen, and when it can time to fight his father his succeeds in killing him. However, during the fight, he is severely weakened by Anti-Troma particles. After his recovers in a sumo dojo, he returns home to find Tromaville infested with Evil. He quickly ends the bad guy’s reign of terror, including stopping the Dark Rider from blowing up the town. Soon afterward, he meets a man who was his real father, saying that the man in Japan was named Bunko, not Junko.
After getting Apocalypse Inc. out of town, the Toxic Avenger has nothing to do. He tries to get a job but fails, as a normal job is no place for a creature of superhuman size and strength. Until one day Toxie is told that his blind girlfriend, Claire, has a chance to see again, but it will cost a great deal of money. When the famous superhero gets the opportunity to work as a spokesman for Apocalypse, Inc., he agrees so he can get money for Claire. As he was unaware of the evil nature of his employers, Apocalypse, Inc. took over Tromaville and enslaved the populace. After Claire's surgery, she opens up Toxie's eyes and it is revealed that The Devil himself is the chairman of Apocalypse Inc. He confronts the chairman and battles throw five challenges in video game style. He completes the first four challenges, but in the fifth as the chairman changes the Toxic Avenger back to his original form, the dorky Melvin Junko, and must face a showdown with the Devil. He is saved as an angel delivers a message from God, changing him back to his old monstrous self, and defeats the chairman once and for all.
Sometime later, when the notorious Diaper Mafia takes hostages the Tromaville School for the Very Special, the Toxic Avenger and his morbidly obese sidekick Lardass, who very quickly dies, saved the children. However, an explosion results in some unforeseeable consequences, creating a dimensional tear between Tromaville and its dimensional mirror image, Amortville. While the Toxic Avenger (Toxie) is trapped in Amortville, Tromaville comes under the control of the superhuman powered hero's evil doppelganger, the Noxious Offender (Noxie). As Noxie wreaks havoc in Tromaville, Toxie searched for a way home. After defeating an evil version of Sgt. Kabukiman and lesser known heroes, he returns to Tromaville, only to discover that Noxie and the corrupted police chief have taken over the town and impregnated the already pregnant Sarah. He confronts his evil alter self and defeats him, just as Toxie’s good baby kills Noxie’s evil baby in Sarah’s womb.
Now the streets of Tromaville are safe again. But there may come a time when evil may strike again into the hearts and minds of its citizens. And when it does, just look to the hills, and the Toxic Avenger will be there.
