Powers and Abilities
While Bleep does not have natural superpowers, he is armed with the power of futomic energy from his gloves, boots, and space helmet. His power is useful for construction, levitation, and combat. Although his amount of futomic energy can go unstable in water and can last for a finite amount. If used in water, the futomic energy will create a harmful temperature of heat. If his energy runs out of power, Bleep will become vulnerable, unless his friends substitute him. Another weapon Bleep has are his gyroblades which is useful for flight, drilling holes on solid areas such as the earth, and creating strong forces of wind.

Early Years
Lucius Morningstar Bleep was born on Futura and was left by his own biological parents during his infancy. He was later adopted by Professor Bleep, whom he referred as his father. Growing up, Bleep was found to be gifted at age five and managed to skip eight grades ahead from the other futurian students of his age. He graduated high school at 10, studied astrophysics at college and graduated at 14. He then went to military school as a cadet student to pursue his dream career at working at the Futura High Command. At 18, Bleep graduated and was granted the assistant space deputy of the Futura High Command. During an induction party, the joy turned to sorrow when a psychopath criminal mastermind managed to crash the Futura High Command. Deputy Bleep tried to help resolve the accident, but he was unable to save his beloved adoptive father, who was murdered in this tragic occasion. As time passed on Bleep avenged his father's death, by continuing to reach higher ranks and eventually tracking down his target enemy for good.

Colonel Bleep's Arrival on Earth
After being ranked colonel, the Futura High Command assigned Col. Bleep on a top secret mission to investigate Earth and the mysteries behind the planet's nuclear explosions. Right when he crash lands on the Solar System's only living planet, he meets two unlikely companions. First he meets Scratch: a dim-witted but strong and good-natured caveman who was frozen for ten thousand years. Second he meets Squeak: a sneaky, childish, happy-go-lucky, and clever marionette who dresses like a 1950s cowboy. After years of grief, Col. Bleep finds these earthlings to be his new family and decides to take care of them while also granting them as his new space deputies, thus forming the Interstellar Squadron.

Season 1

There, the colonel can continue his studies on Earth while also training Squeak and Scratch. Sometime later however, Bleep discovers mysterious incidents around the island, which includes monsters harming his friends. To prevent any further harm, he and his deputies search among the Solar System to track down Bleep's old enemy, Dr. Destructo, who has secretly escaped prison just for the sake of revenge. After several more incidents, Bleep eventually reveals his past adversary with Destructo towards Squeak and Scratch.
