The tiny diamond-shaped bottle hummed in Tim's hand, all its strength ready to burst out. And Tim had only one thought: "If Captain Doom can get awesome powers from Black Lightning, so can I..." He removed the glass bottle top, and drank. Just one tiny drop...But with Captain Doom, Disaster Boy, and an ugly monster called the Slime King chasing after the precious Black Lightning, Tim's troubles are far from over. Wacky characters and a really engaging style make this a compelling and enjoyable read.
