Sea-Rod: A New Wave

All summer vacation Lance surfs on the beach, until one fatal afternoon Lance falls into the ocean and doesn't come up—until he emerges as Sea-Rod, a crime fighting superhero whose powers include teleportation, talking to animals, and a magic shield and sword made out of shells. Sea-Rod spends most of his days cleaning up Flame Island and fighting the evil supervillain Inferno, who is mind controlling the town to litter. Will Sea-Rod stop Inferno's evil plans? Will Flame Island ever be clean?
