Robbie's D.A. dad wants him to have a career in the law and his mother wants him to pursue a life in the arts. Instead, Robbie is secretly trying to cope with groovy new superpowers that make him talk funny and bounce around like a rubber ball. When Robbie saves his parents from a career criminal bent on revenge, Speedball is introduced to the world.
