Strange superpowers start emerging among a group of pre-teens from Quadropolis, and they’re going to have to figure out how to use them to save the city. It starts as a simple effort to become the sidekick of the local superhero, but these kids discover a role that goes far beyond sidekick. Listen as they uncover villains, find creative ways to use their powers, and realise that titles “hero” and “villain” are more complicated than they first seem.

Graphene has discovered that Fish out of Water seems to be a lackey for Mrs. Work, and Baninja has learned that Bernie Conners is really a superhero named Boa Convictor. Together with ITGirl, they turn their attention back to Mrs. Work to discover if she is really a supervillain.
Bernie Connors has the ability to make people believe ANYTHING he says — as long as it’s about a superhero! After a young girl injures herself by trying to copy a hero Bernie made up, he gives up the extravagant life of a comic book writer for the life of a superhero — with the power of lying.
20 years ago in Greece, a young Bernie Connors contemplates what it means to have given up on his dream of writing comic books to become a textbook editor. He meets the Greek god Hermes, who has some opinions on this life decision.
As Graphene and ITGirl go to confront Fish Out of Water and Mrs Work (disrespectfully and respectfully, respectfully), Baninja decides to look into Quadropolis reporter Bernie Connors. Baninja suspects he is being used by a mind controller. But will Baninja be able to hold on to his own memories?
Remember that cliffhanger from 2 issues back? Shall we wait another issue to resolve it? No? Ok, then let’s dig in to our fledgling superhero team figuring out the next steps. Baninja is sure he has the best idea for a way forward, but so does Dagny. For that matter, Ameenah thinks her idea is pretty good as well.
Not every superhero has powers that come from a science experiment or nuclear accident. Sometimes, an origin story is more unusual. More illogical. More… spooky.
Kirby “Baninja” Kuromoto finds the memory-wiped tweens Dagny and Ameenah on the playground at their school. His goal is to remind them that they are superheros — but he might not be able to do it without insulting them first! Hopefully Butlerbot’s manners can keep them in line.
Dagney and Ameenah have had their brains erased, and they don’t even remember that they wanted to be superheroes! But Baninja is on the case. Listen as he and Butlerbot track the weird fish-boy to Binary Towers and heroically cling to truth!
