A small farming community, a few hours east of Astro City by train.
History
A rural town that features down home friendly attitudes where everyone knows everyone. While it doesn't have the hustle and bustle of Astro City's marquee lights, Caplinville does have its own benefits.
One of them is a "Local Hero," Roustabout, who seems to be on a first-name basis with most of the residents of the area, even the crusty farmer Mr. DeBeck.
In 2003 Team Carnivore attacked the area. Roustabout allied with the townspeople capture the group.
Observations
The main streel of Caplinville the Dogpatch Building which houses the local goods store and a bevy of gossip. Another is the Fontaine Fairgrounds, which houses semi-annual carnivals throughout the year, which enables everybody in the community to all get together in one place a couple of times a year.
Possible Creator Salute
The Dogpatch Building is a reference to the fictional setting of Capp's Li'l Abner, while the Fontaine Fairgrounds is possibly a nod to Fontaine Fox, the comic strip creator of Toonerville Folks.
