I got this.
[Narrator] Ever wondered how to pick out
the real Papa G from a sea of cloned Papa Gs?
We'll show you how and share buckets more fun facts
about Kid Cosmic in this very video.
Just be warned, local hero, spoilers ahead.
Did you know that all of the gadgets and doohickeys
you see in Kid Cosmic's headquarters
are actually items he found from Papa G's junk yard
and then later fixed up?
If you've ever wondered
why Kid Cosmic's cape is too short for him,
it's because he's actually wearing a toddler's cape.
In fact, he's still wearing the same cape
his mom made for him when he was just a little child.
Just don't call him Baby Cosmic.
- Do, do, do, do, do, do, do,
yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, hi-ya, hi-ya!
- Jo,
refills!
- [Narrator] Jo got her name from the simple fact
that whenever she's working at her mom's diner,
you can often find her serving a cup of,
you guessed it, joe, which is slang for coffee.
Top off my cup of joe, will ya?
- Ughhhhhhhh!
- [Narrator] Antennas were added to Kid Cosmic's headphones
to show that, even in his own desert town,
Kid Cosmic still feels like somewhat of an alien.
- You're the invader, hi-ya!
- You're not alone, Chuck.
- [Narrator] To top off Tuna Sandwich's character design,
the animators decided to give him a cat butt
using a simple X in order to make him feel
more like a real animal.
Kid Cosmic names the cat Tuna Sandwich
because the only thing he'll ever eat is,
that's right, a tuna sandwich.
You don't need visions of the future like Tuna
to know exactly what he'll be eating next.
- I need to talk to her to get her somewhere private.
Tell her to meet me in the bathroom.
- [Narrator] This note that Chuck scribbles to Jo
in his alien language in episode seven
actually translates to "meet me in the bathroom."
Too bad Jo can't understand Karlaxian.
- What?
- Sorry.
- [Narrator] Did you catch the comic strips
on the back of this newspaper
that Chuck pulls out in episode six?
Those are the original 2009 comic strips
that inspired Kid Cosmic.
Now that's an origin story.
Did you know that the skulls found
on The Great Leader's suits are actually
the skulls of his defeated enemies?
Just a heads up.
Look closely at the markings
on the Death Dogs' alien collars.
They actually spell out E-R-T-H, erth.
That gives you a pretty good hint
at who's controlling them.
(rock music)
Kid Cosmic and the Local Heroes super suits
were designed to look homemade.
The creators wanted to make sure
the Local Heroes suits were realistic
and easy to cosplay.
So what are you waiting for?
Suit up!
- Now what?
- We save the day!
- [Narrator] Ever wonder who the most powerful member
of the Local Heroes actually is?
Guess what, it's Rosa.
Just one teensy, little problem,
she's four, needs the most care,
and is hard to control.
- Agh, let go!
- [Narrator] Keep an eye out for several nods
to a famous, giant lizard from Japan
who shares Rosa's love of stomping.
Does this giant chase scene look familiar?
What about these pajamas?
While Rosa and this giant lizard
share a lot of big similarities,
Rosa is, of course, way more adorable,
mostly.
The way to tell whether you're looking
at the real Papa G versus a clone Papa G
is to make sure he's wearing
the stone of power on his finger,
because the clones don't wear a ring.
- Ahhh, what is going on?
(lasers)
(crash)
- [Narrator] In the last episode of season one,
Kid Cosmic is finally able to unlock
his true power of telekinesis,
but this only happens
after he stops thinking about himself
and starts thinking about others instead.
A selfless thought goes a long way.
- [Kid Cosmic] Wow, I have telekin-
telekin-in-
tell, - Telekinesis,
the power of mind control!
- [Narrator] Pay close attention to when
Kid Cosmic unrolls the sacred scroll
of the stones in episode three.
You might find some exciting hints
inside what's to come for season two.
- It's real!
- Really? Weird.
- [Narrator] All right, that'll do it.
With all those fun facts now at your fingertips,
it doesn't take a psychic cat to see
that there's a lot more Kid Cosmic
coming your way in the future.
Right, Tuna?
- [Tuna] And they say I talk a lot.
