Synopsis
Unleashing potential: The Godolkin University School of Crimefighting trains the heroes of tomorrow
Superheroes, even those with extraordinary abilities, need guidance and education to become effective crimefighters. The Godolkin University School of Crimefighting is an exclusive institution that focuses on training young superhumans how to combat crime. The Godolkin approach involves organizing a competition among teenage superheroes for crimefighting contracts in different cities across the United States. Although this competition fosters success, it can also cause injuries and conflicts among the participants. Meanwhile, the two influential leaders, Marie M. and Emma Shaw, are investigating any potential conspiracies behind the scenes. Despite being a revered school for superheroes, Godolkin offers a typical college experience with its own set of problems including sexual tension, drama, gossip and diabolical activities.
