Hey Howdy Hey Tappers!
The Superhero Event is upon us and Springfield has been invaded with Superheros, creeping Criminals & a whole new Comic Book look! In the first Issue of the Superhero Event, you’ll see action (SPOILER Radioactive Man dies..), crime & pie! Lots and lots of pie!
The Event is broken up into 4 Issues, with each Issue containing part of the Story. To help you along with the story line you’ll get at least 3 prizes per Issue. Each prize will help further move you through the story and uncover what comes next! For Issue 1 you’re tasked with collecting Carbon Rods to unlock each prize! The Third (and final) Issue 1 prize awarded at 18,500 Carbon Rods is Clownface. A different kind of Super Villain, that will dominate the story-line from issue 1 into issue 2.
So let’s take a closer look at this clown inside a clown..and just while you’ll need him to move onto Issue 2.
WARNING Mild Dialogue Spoilers Below…
Once you’ve collected 18,500 Carbon Rods you’ll automatically be awarded Clownface and you’ll see this message popup:
Clownface is a skin for Krusty the Clown. And once awarded it will automatically be placed in your inventory. So remember you’ll have to go into your inventory to retrieve him.
Once you’ve unlocked Clownface some dialogue will start up immediately from Krusty:
Origin Story Pt. 1
Krusty: Hey-hey, kids! Who’s up for a naughty “Knock-Knock?!” I’ll do both parts ’cause last time the audience was cryin’ so much they couldn’t respond….
Knock-knock…
Who’s There?…
Arggghhhh!!….
Reach Level 7 and Build the Krusty Burger
Make Krusty Wear the Clownface Outfit- This will require Krusty to be free. So if he’s on a task you’ll have to wait until his free to complete.
Origin Story Pt. 2
Clownface starts
Clownface: Huh? Whah? Who am I?!….besides another version of a terrible clown?
Bart: You’re not Krusty the Clown!
Clownface: You’re right. I’m different. Like I’ve been seltzered in the face with a Mind Control Ray. Hoy-hoy, kids! I’m Clownface the Clown! As Krusty I steal the show with my yucks! As Clownface, forget stealing the show with yucks! I’m out to steal bucks! I’m less about show business and more about snow business! And by snow I mean ice. And by ice I mean diamonds. And by diamonds I mean…well, I mean diamonds! By using fake TV show diamonds…I can dupe the world of its real gems!
Make Clownface Swap Real Diamond With a Fake- 6s, Earns $35, 1xp
Clownface: Kids, don’t try this at home! Why? ‘Cause it’s my deal! That’s why!
The what happens? Well you’ll have to wait until Issue 2 to find out…
But as you can see…Clownface is an important part of the story-line & will be needed for the start of Issue 2.
So What Can I Make Clownface Do?
Right now he doesn’t have a whole lot of tasks unlocked, as most of his questline will come with Issue 2. However, he does have a few tasks he can do…unfortunately none of them earn event currency at the moment. But here’s a look at what he can do until Issue 2 Unlocks:
| Task | Length | Earns |
| Collect Royalty Check | 1hr | $70, 17xp |
| Relax Like a One Percenter | 6hrs | $350, 90xp |
| Film a Scene for his Show | 8hrs | $275, 70xp |
Currently he has 3 more tasks that are locked…and will require a quest that will trigger once you reach Issue 2. Note: You may not see those 3 tasks listed…if not it’s because they require a premium building. But know that as soon as Issue 2 hits you will get more quests/tasks for him.
So for now…don’t stress about the locked tasks. They’ll unlock when Issue 2 hits…as more questline progresses.
AFTER you unlock Issue 2 here’s what Clownface’s tasks will look like:
| Task | Length | Earns |
| Collect Royalty Check | 1hr | $70, 17xp |
| Check Krusty-Brand Merchandize | 4hrs | 10 Event Currency |
| Relax Like a One Percenter | 6hrs | $350, 90xp |
| Film a Scene for His Show | 8hrs | $275, 70xp |
| Plan a Convoluted Heist | 12hrs | $420, 100xp |
| Rob the Bank | 24hrs | $600, 150xp |
So that my friends is the full breakdown of Clownface!
