>>91046119Back in like 2005 I remember being on the Internet, getting excited for the next Captain Underpants, and reading the rumors about the next book, which was then Purple Potty People. The final version of the book was changed from what we got:
-Originally the book was meant to be a two-parter like the booger one. Part 1 would be the Clash of the Colossal Kung-Fu Monkeys, while part 2 would be the Terrifying Return of Tippy Tinkletrousers.
-This was originally meant to be the finale of the series.
-Originally a character would've died for real in one of these books, and not a "fakey death" but a real one. As a kid I remember being worried that the ones who would die would be George and/or Harold.
These ideas were scrapped and the series continued past this point, albeit after a six-year hiatus when Dav Pilkey was taking care of his ill father.
