I wish I'd had these books as a kid. Hilarious! - Dav Pilkey, creator of Captain Underpants and Dog Man.

They sound like the Bad Guys, they look like the Bad Guys...and they even smell like the Bad Guys.

But Mr Wolf, Mr Piranha, Mr Snake and Mr Shark are about to change all of that! Mr Wolf has a daring plan for the Bad Guys' first good mission. The gang are going to break 200 dogs out of the Maximum Security City Dog Pound.

Will Operation Dog Pound go smoothly? Will the Bad Guys become the Good Guys?

And will Mr Snake please spit out Mr Piranha? 

One by one, the Bad Guys are vanishing. TAKEN by a creature with way too many teeth and far too many bottoms. Is this the end? Maybe. But will it be funny? You bet your butts it will!

The INTERNATIONAL LEAGUE of HEROES want you! But what are they looking for exactly? GIGANTIC MUSCLES? SUPER SPEED? MIND POWERS? SHAPE-SHIFTING AWESOMENESS? Possibly. But are they looking for a nude Wolf? An unconscious Piranha? A muffin-stealing Snake? And a... toaster with a fin and really big teeth? DUH! WHY WOULD YOU EVEN ASK THAT?! 

Knuckleheads Assemble. It’s Bad Guys Episode 8!

THE DAWN OF TIME!
Nothing on Earth could rival the terrifying power of the DINOSAURS. Except maybe that Wolf over there... yeah, the one standing next to the Snake and the Shark and that other sardiney-looking thing.
HUH?!
This is ALL wrong.
This is ALL bad.
This is ALL awesome.
It’s time to get your Jurassic on, baby.
It’s time... for the BAD GUYS EPISODE 7!
