"Despite the chaos and me being a dumpster fire, things turned out okay last time. We beat the villain, and I'm part of a superteam. I have cool friends, and somehow (don't jinx it, Dylan), I even got the girl. Things should be great, right? Now the government's come knocking, and we're summoned to superhero school. Which is a dream come true, except it's run by a corporation. It's fine, if you can get over the teeny, tiny problem that there's also an evolution-obsessed organisation trying to figure us out. Plus, there's another group of mutants with dangerous powers running loose, and we're the ones who'll have to stop them. I hope the part on my school records that says "near-pathological disregard for authority" isn't going to come back and bite me. Maybe it'll be the thing that saves us"--Author's website.
