Whizz Kid

Whizz Kid was a young boy who claimed to be the biggest fan of the Psychic Circus, and had a large collection of souvenirs relating to it — although he had never actually seen them perform.

Biography
Whizz Kid had travelled across half the Southern Nebula, along with his trusty red BMX bike, just to see them on Segonax. He first met the Stallslady and asked her for directions. She gave them to him and was pleased that he was not another hippy.

Whizz Kid was persuaded into the circus ring by Captain Cook, who tried to save his own life for just a little bit longer by taking advantage of the youngster's admiration for him.

While in the ring, Whizz Kid failed to entertain the Gods of Ragnarok, who quickly reduced him to ashes. Only his twisted and melted blue-framed spectacles were left. (TV: The Greatest Show in the Galaxy)
