Misfits of Science was a comedy adventure about a group of would-be super heroes in the employ of the Humanidyne Research Corporation. The team is composed of misfits, people born with unusual abilities and sought after by Humanidyne’s Human Investigation Team headed by Dr. Hayes and Dr. Lincoln. Dr. Lincoln is in fact one of the misfits, normally a very tall man of 7’ 4”, Lincoln has the ability to shrink himself to 8 inches. The other two misfits on the team are: Johnny Bukowski, or Johnny B., a former rock and roll star who has the ability to shoot lightning bolts from his fingertips and Gloria Dinallo, an ex-juvenile delinquent with telekinetic powers. Through the course of the series other misfits of science appear and try out for a job on the team, however their abilities are always a bit on the lame side and they are rejected. Depending on who one is listening to the misfits have two different purposes. According to Dick Stetmeyer head of Humanidyne it is to perform super heroics to help the company’s bottom line, while Dr. Hayes and Dr. Lincoln both would say the misfits super heroics are needed to help them gain acceptance into society.
