Chapter 1 - Origins
Born in the barren desert wastelands known as Chandler, the young Portugese water dog soon found a home with a mild mannered yet spastic family. Said family shortly thereafter moved westward, within close proximity of the San Onofre Nuclear Generation Station -- or more pleasantly referred to as SONGS, an acronym which should soothe the slowly mutating population. The constant sunshine, moisture in the ocean breeze, and the seeping radiation created a puppy of significant stature, quickly surpassing 60 pounds within his first 6 months. He also developed the gastro-intestinal fortitude to eat an entire bag of topsoil, among other items not intended for digestion. Plus, he has webbed paws. These qualities were only amplified when Cubby acquired his additional, electrifying superpower.
Picture the darling daughter busily entertaining herself, playing Club Penguin on the pc. As she's petting her puffles (it's part of the game), the ginormous puppy lays peacefully beneath her tootsies. Quite the idyllic scenario. Switch to moments later when daughter shouts, "Daddy! The computer turned itself off." Enter Mwa, only to find, to my dismay, Cubby having chewed through, completely, the ac power adapter cord. It was shocking - shocking that he didn't electrocute himself. His two front paws, from the shins down, now glow in the dark, like a furry beacon of goodness. His luminescent superpower proves useful in warding off coyote packs, searching for edibles, and providing a nightlight to the bathroom. Oh yeah, the replacement cord is $35. Offspring will be computer-less for several days; that will teach 'em.
Faster than a sleeping bullet.
More powerful than two children.
Able to leap tall couches in a single bound.
Look! Down on the floor!
It's a bird. It's a plane. It's SuperCubby!
Yes, it's SuperCubby - strange visitor from another desert who came to California with powers and abilities far beyond those of mortal men. SuperCubby - who can change the course of mighty rivers, bend steel with his bare paws, and who, disguised as Young Pup, mild mannered Fozzie's "little" brother, fights the never ending battle for Truth, Justice and Doggie Treats.
