You’re fifteen years old. You’re suddenly granted incredible powers. Cool, right? There’s only one problem: you can only use your powers for ten minutes at a time. What do you do when you have to save the world but you only have ten minutes to do it? This is the problem faced by Oliver Leif, a teenager who has just moved to a new town, and a new school, and is having a hard enough time navigating classes and his crush before the inter-dimensional monsters started showing up.


Thoughts…..This series was the second release from the Shared Universe and was completely different from The Resistance. The whole tone was set more lighthearted and comedic, though the circumstances were just as live or death this was handled more tongue in cheek almost and definitely took on the high school setting and ran with it. Being a huge Spider-Man fan I felt there were similarities in its ideas and style but this was so much more up to date and current. We do get the awkward teen and his mishaps at school, the secret identity and wanting to protect those around him. With this series we get a really great origin story to what could be a really fun and different superhero. The humour was great throughout and the characters we met along the way were amazing, it was no wonder we got a second volume of this series. I would give this series a strong 9 out of 10


If you like this series I would recommend all the Resistance Universe comics especially Knighted for the humour
