Pretty Good, interesting mash-up of mythology. ( )

At times really interesting, but it lost me at other times. A lot goes on in this take on superheroes. After visiting some strange island and returning with superpowers (which have somehow become inheritable), superheroes start playing a role in the ordinary life. While some are trying to fit in and other definitely don't, there are some major differences what they should do with those powers.

Besides, it's also a family drama. The artwork was OK. Overall the story was interesting enough for me to want to read the next volume.

Thanks to the publisher and Netgalley for providing me with a free copy of this book in exchange for an honest review! ( )

The first half of this book was losing me as Mark Millar did his dark, apocalyptic take on superheroes, a la [b:Watchmen|472331|Watchmen|Alan Moore|https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1442239711s/472331.jpg|4358649] and [b:Squadron Supreme|277184|Squadron Supreme|Mark Gruenwald|https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1427999968s/277184.jpg|268814]. But then focus shifted to Chloe and Hutch, and these formerly unlikeable Millennials surprised me with how quickly they became heroes for whom I could root. ( )

I love this idea. Love it! ( )
