School for sidekicks / McCullough, Kelly

"Superhero geek Evan survives a supervillian's death ray, and is sent to the Academy for Metahuman Operatives. Unfortunately, instead of fighting bad guys, Evan finds himself blacklisted, and on the wrong side of the school's director. Can he convince his semi-retired has-been mentor to become a real hero once again?"--Provided by publisher.

Evan Quick is a superhero geek in a world where superheroes are real. He longs to wake up one day with superpowers, but everyday the same thing happens--nothing. Then one day on a class field trip, Evan manages to survive a supervillain death ray, and is taken to the Academy for Metahuman Operatives to become a real hero--or so he thought. It turns out the Academy is more for Sidekicks than the real heroes, but it is not without its dangerous secrets.
