His new job as the deputy director is at odds with his desire to start using his powers to make a greater difference. He has to balance his secret while going above and beyond his role at the Bureau of Superheroes. When his villain days come back to haunt him in the form of his old mentor, Miles is forced to reconcile his past and present life, all while taking on a new and growing threat in Point City.

If it’s not one problem, there’s going to be another it seems for Miles. Saving the city was supposed to be a one-time deal but finding that saving a group of wayward villainesses from themselves is a full-time job is the real surprise.
