More than anything, Mandrake wants to be a superhero—but will her supervillain parents ever approve of such a choice? Mandrake De Ville is on her way to St. Luthor's School for Supervillains, where a single act of kindness lands you in the detention pit, while, on the other hand, bullying is positively encouraged. Mandrake is the daughter of billionaire supervillains, with budding superpowers of her own, so in theory, she should thrive at the school. There's just one snag—she secretly wants to be a superhero. Can she possibly succeed?
