History[edit]
Captain Corn was a ear of corn that was harvested from America in the 18th century, and was boiled and consumed by a pirate known as Captain Roberts, except for a single kernel of corn which fell into Captain Robert's compass. The kernel of corn traveled around the world with Captain Roberts. When Dr. Faker found Robert's compass, he opened it and a piece of corn fell out into Faker's machine, reviving him with the appearance of a cob of corn.[1] He gave Captain Corn a soul,[2] and made him work under Mr. Heartland.

Captain Corn is first introduced together with Thunder Spark and Cologne as the Theme Park's "guardians of peace and justice".
After being revived by Dr. Faker, Captain Corn worked as a entertainer on a vegetable-themed roller coaster attraction within the Heartland Theme Park called "Nature Crooz", dressed as a his previous career of a pirate. He locates "Numbers" holders using a special camera, and then uses the ride to attract them to him, which he will then Duel, and get their "Numbers" cards.[3]
When Yuma Tsukumo and his friends from the Numbers Club entered the ride, Captain Corn separated Yuma from the others and challenged him to a Duel betting their "Numbers". Straight away, he gained the advantage by Summoning his "Number": "No. 50: Black Ship of Corn", which shocked Yuma and Astral.[4] Corn also trapped Yuma's friends on the ride, nearly causing them to be run over by a mine cart. Cathy saved them by pulling a lever, which caused the connected lever near Corn to hit him in the groin. When he lost, he exploded into a pile of popcorn, which Yuma and his friends then eat.[1]
