Plot
In the series, Ed is an "electro-genetically" enhanced teen who works for Dojo Delivery, a courier service, in the futuristic Progress City. Ed uses his cyber sleuthing skills to thwart identity theft and other information-based crimes. He and his courier pals Burn, Deets, Loogie (accompanied by his puppet Dr. Pinch), and Fizz, along with their friend and mentor Ol’ Skool, must battle the ultimate evil – Bedlam, an industrialist who has taken over a significant portion of Progress City, by means of stealing from, datamining, or outright destroying his competitors.
List of characters
Heroes
- Ed, the Protector
- Voiced by Lyon Smith. He's a genetically engineered teen in a blue costume, made from the instructions of an ancient alien artifact found by Ol' Skool. As Ed tries to uncover his origins, he also works on the Dojo crew as a delivery boy. On top of delivering packages and figuring out his identity, Ed's side job is fighting evil. He has many equipment that he finds along his journey whose technology is far beyond technology of Progress City, thought to be gifts from aliens for his use. He rides a hoverboard co-piloted by Torch, an AI represented as a little floating fireball hologram with a face. Ed can be a little dense and gullible sometimes, but sometimes he gets flashes of future events that help him and his friends. If it wasn't for his friends, Ed could have accidentally destroyed the world. Ed has a crush on Deets, and the feeling appears to be mutual.
- Deets, the Dreamer

- Voiced by L. Dean Ifill. He is the unofficial leader of the Dojo. Burn takes pride in being the best of the Dojo group, but with the arrival of Ed, he feels his role in the group has been challenged. Because of this, he's hard on Ed every chance he gets.

He has a funny personality and has catfish puppet named Dr. Pinch that he wears on his left hand; the puppet has a bizarre alter-personality that constantly criticizes Loogie. Loogie sports rocket-powered in-line skates as transportation. His appearance and wackiness makes him resemble Jim Carrey.
- Anthony Ol' Skool, the Teacher
- Voiced by Tony Daniels. He is the older, knowledgeable leader of the Dojo, wise in the ways of delivery, among other things. He is only known as Ol' Skool by his friends. He built Ed from an artifact he found in a warehouse and constantly says he knows more about Ed than he does. He uses a normal skateboard, making him the only one who rides a vehicle that isn't technologically advanced. He used to work with Bedlam until Bedlam betrayed him. He also used to work for another delivery service called Bolt until someone made a book of procedures and they slowly dropped in the courier ranks.
- Torch

He's collecting certain items, as well as Ed's DNA. He wants to change his genetic signature to match Ed's.
