* TheFirstSuperheroes: As part of a decades-long secret eugenics project, babies were taken from their mothers and placed in a virtual reality simulation named "The Greenery", where they were to develop their powers in a controlled environment. One day, five of them escape from confinement and, due to being naïve in the ways of the real world, begin to wreak havoc in a small town, until they are officially introduced to the public eye through a comic book company.
