Superheroes soar in this promising debut—and theyre kids!Twelve-year-old Daniel, the new kid in town, soon learns the truth about his nice—but odd—new friends one can fly, another can turn invisible, yet another controls electricity. Incredible. The superkids use their powers to secretly do good in the town, but theyre haunted by the fact that the moment they turn thirteen, their abilities will disappear—along with any memory that they ever had them. Is a memory-stealing supervillain sapping their powers?The answers lie in a long-ago meteor strike, a World War IIera comic book Fantastic Futures, starring the first superhero, Johnny Noble, the green-flamed Witch Fire, a hidden Shroud cave, and—possibly, unbelievably—powerless regular-kid Daniel himself.
