- Season 2

(1997)

When Nukus defeats the BeetleBorgs, only their civilian powers remain. Art Fortunes tells Nukus about his brother, Les, an evil cartoonist who is locked away in Charterville Prison. Nukus heads for the prison while the kids try to stop the frozen Flabber from melting away by reading spells from Flabber's handbook. But instead, they end up turning themselves into bugs and discover that they can transform into bugs whenever they want.

Nukus, along with new fellow villains Vilor and Horribelle and the Dregs, takes Les Fortunes to the Charterville Cemetery, in order to have a new army of monsters drawn for him.

The BeetleBorgs retreat from the Worm Tank only to encounter Nukus, Horribelle and Vilor, so they transform into bugs to escape.

The kids buzz into the studio and rescue Art just in time for him to draw a new Beetle Battle Station and defense vehicles so the kids can beat the Worm Tanks.

The cycles provide the kids with the advantage they need to save themselves and all the children of Charterville from the evil clutches of the Crustaceans.

An old acquaintance of Wolfgang's, who had lost his head after sneezing at the werewolf's fleas, visits Hillhurst to get his head back.

Nukus has Les create Chameleon Monster to capture Flabber and steal the power of the BeetleBorgs. Chameleon appears at Hillhurst as Flabber, and traps the real phasm inside a bottle. The kids transform into bugs to watch Chameleon Monster morph back into his evil self. When Chameleon tries to make his escape, the kids transform and send him back into the comics, then rush to release Flabber from the bottle.

Flabber and the House Monsters turn Hillhurst into "The Horror Hotel" to raise money for renovations. Hotel guests including zombies, a swamp creature and a witch doctor mistake the kids for complimentary snacks and chase them into hiding. Meanwhile, Nukus and Horribelle send over their own horrible hotel guest, Botanicus, whose identity is quickly disclosed. A devious Little Ghoul heists all the guests shoes to make Stinky Shoe Soup for everyone at Hillhurst.

When the Borgs catch the monster at the dam and hurl him into space, everybody gets their brains back!

When Little Ghoul's uncle, The Grim Reaper, comes to town, she tells everyone that Reaper is retiring and needs a replacement. Every monster in town is vying for the prestigious position, including Nukus, who tries (unsuccessfully) to eliminate the competition by having Les create The Monster Smasher. But it turns out that Little Ghoul lied - Reaper is simply looking for a servant! When he proudly offers the position to Flabber, the disappointed phasm politely declines.
