Thom has to discover what kind of hero he really is and whether or not some of the heroes he has always looked up to are all theyre cracked up to be. Not only does his dad find out whats going on, but everyone (and I do mean everyone) finds out he is gay. Superheroes are dying.Įverything in Thoms life explodes at once. Thoms life is complicated hes trying to keep his new superhero training a secret from his dad, his mother has (sort of) come back into his life, hes not sure if his new teammates are with him or against him, and something bad is going on within the League. Their team leader is the demoted Golden Boy. Then Typhoid Larry, who makes anyone he touches sick, and Ruth, a much older lady who can see the future. Theres Scarlett, who controls fire but has anger (and other) issues. He connects up with a group of misfit aspiring heroes. His powers are accidentally discovered by the League (the very same League of Superheroes that disowned his dad Hal) and they invite him to come for a tryout. For one thing, hes got superpowers of his own (to start off with, he can heal people by touching them). There are actually a lot of things that are different about Thom. Hes a basketball star at school, but everyone keeps their distance because of his family situation and, perhaps, because they sense that something is different about Thom. Thoms father is a disgraced superhero and his mother has (literally) disappeared.
