Ol' Goo Eyes is Back!

In The Toxic Avenger: Part II, Melvin continues his quest to quash criminals and eliminate evil, and this time he takes his act on the road to Tokyo, Japan. A huge, multinational conglomerate, APOCALYPSE, INC., plans to take over Tromaville and reinstate the peaceful town as the "Toxic Waste Capital of the World." In order to rid Tromaville of the indestructible Avenger, the Chairman of APOCALYPSE, INC. engages the brilliant technical minds of the company's Japanese division to develop an Anti-Tromaton formula which would destroy the Toxic Avenger's innate aversion to evil caused by the Toxic Avenger's mutated biological makeup and a nuclear particle called the Tromaton. The Anti-Tromaton would render Toxie powerless.

By bribing Melvin's sexy, seductive shrink, the Chairman devises a devious plan to lure the Toxic Avenger to Japan in search of his father, Big Mac, but once in Tokyo, the Toxic Avenger finds himself facing a ruthless and deadly drug-smuggling villain!

Will Toxie find his father and learn the secrets of Sumo? Will APOCALYPSE INC. de-Tromatize Melvin and turn Tromaville into a toxic dump?? Will the Toxic Avenger return from Tokyo in time to terminate the terrible toxic troubles tormenting the town of Tromaville??? The Toxic Avenger: Part II has the answers to these important questions and many other words beginning with the letter "T."
