Captain Amazing, the hometown hero of Metro City, is so busy catching criminals that he rarely has time for his pets -- he hasn't even noticed they've been developing superpowers of their own!

So when he announces that he needs a sidekick, his eager pets -- a dog, a cat, a hamster, and a chameleon -- all decide to audition for the part and a chance for some one-on-one time with the Captain.

But Dr. Havoc, Captain Amazing's longtime nemesis, is hatching up an evil scheme, and the Captain is in serious trouble. Can the warring pets put their squabbles aside to save Captain Amazing and Metro City?
