===Appearance===
Captain Corn is pretty much what his name says. His face resembles a piece of corn, whilst his clothing showcases his career as a pirate via a large comical pirate hat which features a skull and crossbones and tight leather pants. He also has a large handlebar mustache and is always seen smoking a cigar. Captain Corn also holds a real sword and seems to have great skills using it.

In both the Japanese and English versions, Captain Corn has a habit of making puns with the word "corn" (and "maize" in the English version), like saying "A-maize-ing" instead of "amazing" and "Cornfused" instead of "confused". In the Japanese version, he makes puns with the Japanese pronunciation of "corn", "kōn" (コーン), such as saying "コーン回" (''kōnkai'') instead of "今回" (''konkai'' - "this time"). He also uses many stereotypes of a pirate and terms related to sailing.
