Plot
Ribble forces everyone to make happy retirement cards for her, while George and Harold make a Underpants comic with her as "Wedgie Woman" instead, and the boys pass out the "Friday Memo", with several humorous changes. They later convince Krupp to sign a blank card, but later, having found out about their comic, he puts them in detention. Harold defiantly refuses Ribble the card, while Krupp seizes it; Harold made it look like a marriage proposal. Krupp remains indifferent to the following chaotic school week. At the wedding, just before they get married, Ribble breaks up with because Krupp has a funny-looking nose. Krupp is furious and explain the boys' trick, and Ms. Ribble frenzidely tries to attack the boys, but they luckily escape.
Ribble has dropped their B's and C's to F's and G's, making them redo the fourth grade. Harold reluctantly agrees to hypnotize her, then a local newscast reveals the police are shutting down the responsibly company because on women, a mental blunder makes them do the opposite. The boys, as an afterthought, tell Ribble not to do anything crazy, like turn into Wedgie Woman. That night, she arrives as Wedgie Woman, but spills super-power juice into her hair, which forms several tiny hands. She kidnaps the boys to her house, where she builds robot copies of them. When Krupp snaps at Harold 2000, he turns himself into Underpants and asks for help from the robots, whose Spray Strach defeats him. Meanwhile, Wedgie Woman ties them to adjacent chairs with a candle and hatchet, but the hatchet simply cuts through the ropes.
George and Harold find the wedged Underpants, convinced that he lost his powers. The newest store sells everything but fabric softener, so they make a comic about Underpants' origin. He reads it, eventually says the words on the back and defeats the robots. As Underpants and Wedgie Woman face off, George shouts to Harold that he'll get rid of his extra-strength starch, and she steals all the bottles and sprays them at Underpants. Due to the counterfeited hair remover, everyone is bald and the boys hypnotize Ribble to forget the last two weeks and become the nicest teacher in the school's history.

The second comic in the book starts with an introduction to Underpantyworld, Captain Underpants' fictional home world. Suddenly, the Wedgie Warlords aboard the Starch Ship Enterprize appear and spray starch on Underpantyworld. However, the leader, "Big Daddy Long Johns", creates an amulet that is able to protect the entire planet from the starch. However, it gets accidentally swallowed by his son, "Little Baby Underpants" (later revealed to be Captain Underpants), so the entire planet becomes doomed. Big Daddy Long Johns and his wife, "Princess Pantyhose", are forced to save their son, and not the planet. Stretching the underwear, Big Daddy Long Johns and Princess Pantyhose catapult Little Baby Underpants towards Earth, while Underpantyworld is destroyed. Little Baby Underpants is adopted by two old people, who name him "Captain", after their favorite cereal. As he grows up, Captain feels isolated from other children, since he only wears underwear. Captain has a dream, where he meets his parents, and because he has the amulet still inside, he is invulnerable to starch. All he has to do is shout the sentence "I summon the power of Underpantyworld", and he will overcome the powers of starch. He becomes a superhero named Captain Underpants, and never becomes afraid of starch anymore. The comic ends and in the real world, Captain Underpants shouts out the sentence.
