There’s a new superhero on the scene! His superpower: crumpets for hands! And with these super crumpet-hands of his, Crumpet-Hands Man - along with Detective Pilchard, a police person with a keen instinct for crime, and, more prominently, with two eyes where his ears should be - will stop at nothing to protect his city! So read of his ongoing adventures, three times a week, filled with laughs and chuckles as the fantastically heroic (and fantastically accident prone) Crumpet-Hands Man does all the things one would expect of a dough-based hero: battling super-villains, performing feats of strength, solving mysteries, sneezing, buttering his palms, saving the day, and lots of other stuff which is too exciting for words. Enjoy!
