Category:Blackgaard saga

From Adventures in Odyssey Wiki

The saga involves Dr. Blackgaard's evil plots involving the town of Odyssey. It can be split into two sub-sagas; the first dealing with Blackgaard's attempt to steal John Whittaker's computer program "Applesauce", and the other about Blackgaard trying to create the deadly Ruku virus.

The Blackgaard saga begins before the existence of Whit's End, an ice cream emporium and the focal point of AIO, when Blackgaard's "Webster Development Company" is outbid by John Whittaker's "Universal Press Foundation" in the sale of the building and property that would later become Whit's End.

The saga resurfaces in the Daring Deeds, Sinister Schemes arc, spanning eight episodes. About twenty albums later, after many interlude episodes, the Darkness Before Dawn arc involved the climax of the saga. Things were then wrapped up in the albums Back on the Air and Welcome Home!. Blackgaard managed to squeeze in a few more schemes in the albums Virtual Realities and In Your Wildest Dreams!.
