![]() ![]() ![]() Part of what I like about the book is how authentic it feels. The weight of the secret they hold could change their positions considerably, though. They are just part of a much larger campus full of Supers that are all competitng to become the next generation of superheroes. The protagonists are an eclectic mix of a telepath, a luck-manipulator, an energy absorber, a kid who has a sexy Captain Marvel-esque alter ego, and a flying heiress. It’s somewhat similar to MY HERO ACADEMIA except the protagonists are malfunctioning Supers instead of a “normal” person who gains superpowers. They have been turned into Supers by their surgeries and it is a test to see if they can pass the punishing trials that others undergo in order to become full-fledged superheroes. These people (called “Powereds”) are unable to control their power and are despised by the public.Ī group of these Powereds are gathered together and operated on by a mysterious group that then enrolls them in Lander University. However, like the aforementioned Marvel creatures, they also have a downside where there are people crippled by their abilities. The premise is that the world is full of mutants (called “Supers”) that are born with special abilities like the ability to fly, turn into steel, or shoot laser beams out of their eyes. What were my feelings upon finishing the first book? I definitely enjoyed it with a few small caveats. So, I had no doubt I was going to love this book. I was a already a fan of the man due to his FRED: THE VAMPIRE ACCOUNTANT and VILLAINS’ CODE series. SUPER POWEREDS: YEAR ONE is the first volume of Drew Hayes’ SUPERPOWERED’s series. ![]()
