Almost Heroes

High school senior Santana Harris’ parents want her to go to college, to prepare for her future, or—at the very least—to get a job so that she can figure out what life after high school will look like.

Santana doesn’t want any of that. Convinced that her art will allow her to win a scholarship to a prestigious school, she’s content to coast through her final year. Her parents give her an ultimatum: if she doesn’t win the scholarship, she’ll have to find a part-time job.

Then Santana and her friend spot a cat in a tree. After she saves it, a strange boy shows up to offer her a job. The kind of job that would allow her to work after school and set her own hours. The only catch? Her new boss thinks he’s a superhero, and he wants Santana to be his new sidekick.
