Synopsis

What do you get when you mix a sci-fi nerd, an artist, a social pariah, and the most popular girl in school with a mysterious bus crash? Some strange new abilities: Martina can change her eye colour; Nick can teleport four inches, but only to the left; Farshad can channel super strength, but only in his thumbs; and Cookie can read minds, when those minds are thinking about directions. They are, in short, oddly mighty, especially when they work together. Starring a diverse group of kids with (very limited) superpowers, this series' multiple narrators make for a quirky, pitch-perfect read that tackles identity and stereotypes. Ignatow's characters have been praised widely, as 'very real' by the New York Times and 'completely convincing' by the New Yorker.
