Before discovering how to alter the very fabric of time itself, Michael Lashe ruled the world - sort of. The 18-year-old prodigy vowed to protect his crime-ridden home by becoming London's first caped-crusader, saving damsels in distress and winning the key to the city all while choosing not to wear a mask. He became the first Black "Superhero" to reveal himself to the masses. Despite this, Michael found himself alone most nights, focused on his robot creations he called Sentients . But everything changed when the time-travelers kidnapped him in the middle of the night for their own nefarious means. As Michael seeks to understand the mechanics of time-travel, his greatest challenge will be the person he'll work beside: Ceci Cee-Catheryn , a Southern girl with a fractured past filled with a lot of pain, insecurity, and more than a tad of prejudice.
