Seventeen-year-old Caleb Randolph has spent two years preparing for a life of capes, fame, and big-city heroics. But when internship assignments go out, Caleb doesn’t get New York, Los Angeles, or even somewhere with a decent pizza joint.

He gets Oxford, Mississippi.

Worse, he’s required to assume the identity of the town’s school mascot: Charger. Not “The Charger.” Not “Blue Charger.” Just… Charger. A hero themed around electrical stuff—despite Caleb having zero electrical powers.

Welcome to the bottom of the superhero food chain.

Placed in a secret basement lair beneath William Faulkner’s historic home, Caleb must navigate suspicious local law enforcement, nosy neighbors, relentless church invitations, and absolutely no villainy worth punching.

Awkward encounters. Small-town chaos. Zero actual supervillains.

But something strange is brewing in this quiet Southern town. And if Caleb can survive broken hearts, haywire costumes, small-town traditions, superpowered roommates, and a mascot identity that makes even him cringe…

…he might just discover what being a hero really means.

After all, Mississippi needs superheroes, too.

Perfect for fans of superhero stories with humor, heart, and a coming-of-age twist.
