SUMMARY: [From barnesandnoble.com] Meet Alex, Karolina, Gert, Chase, Molly and Nico - six young friends whose lives are about to take an unexpected dramatic turn. Discovering their parents are all secretly super-villains, together the teens run away from home and vow to turn the tables on their evil legacy!
THOUGHTS: I wish my parents were evil super villains. Okay... I don't, but it sure is an awesome premise for a graphic novel series. I think Brian K. Vaughan is becoming my graphic novel god. I can't wait to see where this series goes and what philosophical and societal questions Vaughan gets me to think about.
RATING: 6/10 [Good]
