"Originally titled: The hijacking of Manhattan."
Just an ordinary kid, Max Silver touched some radioactive space rocks in a museum and now can do things other kids can't--like fly. Max finds it's not easy being a superhero, especially when his father is determined to beat him at armwrestling, his mother wants him in bed on time--and the president wants him to save Manhattan.
