Production notes
"Toxic Crusaders: The Movie," a 90-minute DVD released by Troma in 2004, combined the first three episodes of the series.
A cartoon series based on a line of action figures which were themselves based on the campy joke horror movie "The Toxic Avenger." The series depicts the movie's vengeful mutant as a deformed yet sincere cartoon superhero, a mutated former custodian (hence his primary weapon of choice was a mop). Melvin Junko was a miserable janitor at a rundown gym who often took the worst bullying from a local gang until one day, he was dunked into a highly volatile barrel of toxic waste. The waste severely disfigured Melvin while also giving him incredible strength as Toxie. The "normal"-looking woman was Toxie's mom. America's favorite environmental heroes, the Toxic Crusaders wage an ongoing war of laughs against crime, corruption and chemical waste. In order to save Tromaville and the rest of the planet, the Toxic Crusaders must thwart the plans of the evil Dr. Killemoff, a mutant pollutant from the planet Smogula, and his hordes of heinous henchmen. The jingle in the commercials for the series went, "Toxic Crusaders. They're gross, but they still get girls!"
