| Review Summary |
Will Stronghold just enter his first year of high school. But the school he attends is not your ordinary place of a learning institution. Sky High is full of kids with cool special powers- but these kids must first come pass Coach Boomer who will determine what student will be in either category- popular kids or the sidekicks. Any kid that can prove they have special superhero powers are the popular ones, such as the jocks or cheerleaders- those who lack the ability is labeled only as a sidekick also known as the rejects or nerds.
Stronghold does not have control of any superhero powers inherit by his parents, The Commander and Jetstream so he is placed as a sidekick. Feeling down about learning of this awful news, he does not tell his parents so they will be disappointed in him. He feel it will come around soon- he knows some students that have some powers of their own Layla who can control plant life thanks to her natural green thumb, Ethan can melt into mush, Zach who can glows when placed in a an unexpected dilemma, who glows and Magenta who can only form herself into a purple guinea pig.
But that special day for Will finally comes when he is met up with his bully Warren Peace, who had a strong grudge against Will and his parents- The Commander locked up Peace's father who were villain. Peace's can turn his hand naturally to a flamethrower; while trying to use his ability on Will in a cafeteria brawl, Stronghold finally found his strength, picking up Peace with his mind and throwing him against the wall. Instantly Will finds his newfound power and is placed as the new school hero. Things start to change for him, including his choice for friends, he'd even meets one of the prettiest girl in school, high school senior Gwen who is also Will's new lab partner, (also have mind control over electronics) have taking a strong liking towards Will. So far things for Stronghold is running smoothly, school days aren't so bad, long gone the days of Warren the bully, special powers of his own and a popular girl by his side. But Layla secretly starting to fall for Will and he does not knows it.
