Eli Franklin is a fifteen-year-old black girl who was adopted as a baby by a white family in Montana. She has superpowers. Her dad works for the White House in some top secret job. When Negromurta footage is leaked revealing the existence of a prison containing super powered blacks the White House is forced to admit that some blacks have superpowers. Now blacks without superpowers are being beaten up and blacks and whites are pretty pissed and scared. and calling for action.
Eli has a ball that arrived with her when she landed on this planet. She calls it BOB. She finds that BOB can be worn as a superhero costume and she goes about saving the day and trying to change people's minds about blacks with superpowers. She calls herself Good Girl. Then she is caught by her dad and his government goons.
She is brought in to work with other superheroes who work for the government. At first, her numbers are going way up and she is quite popular. Then people start questioning whether she's saving more people of color and going after white celebrities. They bench her. Then the superpowered woman who has been destroying military bases has been spotted and they send the more experienced superheroes.
But Eli notices from video footage that they have similar powers and she has the same tattoo as BOB, so she flies out to meet her. It turns out the woman is Zion, her sister. She explains how Eli came to land on earth and why blacks are suddenly getting superpowers. But Zion is set upon destroying those whom she sees as oppressors and Eli can't let her do that. This is an interesting and fresh new comic. I can't wait to see where it leads. I highly recommend it.
