UPDATE!! The Cartoon Network just informed me I actually saw and reviewed 4.2 below instead of tonight's 4.1. I've no idea why!

I am – Hercules!!
Notes on the brilliant fourth-season premiere of “The Venture Bros.” premiering Sunday:
* Episode’s first line: “Ah ha ha ha ha ha!! Time to pay the piper, Venture!!”
* Brock is still absent and Rusty has taken on a surprising (and ill-chosen!) replacement.
* Hank, now bereft of spare clone bodies, has evolved his look. He’s also offered a job opportunity.
* A new and highly Superman-like character, Captain Sunshine, is introduced quite early on.
* Sunshine belongs to a Justice League-like organization whose members include Barbeque and Ghost Robot. All members have unexpected night jobs.
* The death of henchman 24 has changed henchman 21 in a profound and unexpected way.
* We learn Billy Quizboy is now 37.
Six of the funniest lines that won’t completely spoil the episode for you reside in invisotext.
* “I half-expect it to have Popeye cartoons on it when I peel it off my thigh.”
* “Hey, missing a couple of zeroes there, Oprah!”
* “Playtime’s over! Time to get your gay little ass home!”
* “Suggested application is to the buttocks and inner thigh.”
* “You know the rules, Scorpio. He’s off limits during training.”
* “Just kidding!!”
