Maverick Mercury is the sideshow attraction known as "Gator Boy" at Grumbling's Traveling Circus and Sideshow. Despite the other performers kicking him around all of his life, Maverick has always been somewhat comfortable in his skin. That is until he overhears boss man Burt Grumbling talking about him behind his reptilian-like back. It seems Maverick's freakish mutations are the result of some billionaire geneticist's experiments gone awry. Apparently, this psychopath kidnaps kids, turns them into super mutants, and sells their powers off to the highest bidder. Now, Maverick is on a mission to find the mad scientist who may have created him. All he has to do is steal some wheels from Burt, escape the clutches of one-eyed Yorgi and his gang of killer clowns, and make his way from some Podunk town in Florida to the Big Apple with his three-legged dog, Snaggletooth, and runaway Freddie Finch. What can go wrong?
