Howdy, Partner!.
Episode Description:
Joe makes his way to the wild west-like Blue Town, the hometown of the hero Captain Blue. There he witnesses a confrontation between a menacing biker gang and a young, aspiring hero named Captain Blue Junior, who claims to be the successor to Captain Blue. He and the townsfolk run the gang out of town. Joe introduces himself to Junior, who explains that he is waiting for his mentor's return so he can obtain a V-Watch and become a true hero. Fearing the boy's reaction, Joe keeps his own superhero identity and Captain Blue's fate to himself. The motorcycle gang returns with Bianco Billy, a Jadow gunfighter who swiftly overtakes the town and reveals Captain Blue's defeat to a distraught Junior. In regular fashion Viewtiful Joe arrives and trumps the town's invaders. As Joe says farewell to the town, Junior, after much thought, decides to join him on his adventure.
