Taylor Ebert is an ordinary girl who isn’t popular at school—but she has a secret: she possesses a superpower. Still, she’s not the only one in the world with a secret like that (and for some, it’s not even a secret). People with such abilities are usually divided into heroes, villains, and neutral loners. Costumes, masks, nicknames instead of names, unwritten rules, politics, and dirty tricks come with the territory.
In one of Taylor’s first outings in costume, she’s mistakenly taken for a villain—plunging her into a world of constant struggle between good and evil, where villains can do socially useful things and save the world, and heroes aren’t always as pure as they want to look. All Taylor can count on is new friends, a clear head, and an unusual superpower that lets her control insects.
