Young orphan Billy Batson has bounced from foster home to foster home, but he's far from the ideal child. Brash and rude, Billy is a troubled teen that just can't seem to find a calling. But after a fateful night on a subway car, that all will change.
For Billy Batson, life is pretty much full of normal teenage stuff: schoolwork he'd rather ignore, facing up against annoying foster parents, and..superhuman magical abilities?!
