Synopsis
Lightning hits a scarecrow and gives it evil powers to turn itself into a straw monster- and to point its fingers at stacks of straw and turn them into other straw monsters. Asks the scarecrow: "Why waste my time scaring crows when there is a whole world out there to scare?" Unfortunately, he starts in the town where the Mighty Heroes live. The scarecrow terrorizes villages, descending on the town with an army of straw monsters. Everyone is leaving until the Mighty Heroes are sent for to stop it and come upon the scene. Diaper Man and his hero friends come to life.
