Benny wants to be a speedy, and Rafter hopes he gets his grandpa's super strength so he can save the day just like him. But when their powers arrive, they are - well - duds. Rafter can light matches on polyester, and Benny can turn his innie belly button into an outie. How is Rafter supposed to defeat his algebra class nemesis, Juanita Johnson, now? And worse still, what if everything Rafter thought he knew about superheroes turns out to be a lie?
