"The most subversive story ever drawn in a traditional way." Five of the most notable writers have now told stories in their own colors with a common theme of "superpower." It is a collection of manga short stories that has not been introduced through an online platform before being compiled into a book, so it has been a paperback production from the beginning. Various events of the past, future, or contemporary era are portrayed through a single topic, including granddaughter who went to the past to find her great-grandmother's land document, a warrior who cannot believe whether her memory is true or false, story of people living on a dystopian earth, a variety of contemporary events depicted through a single theme, portrayed powerfully. In these short stories, their resolution processes of conflicts, feel so vividly alive that it feels as if they have broken through the barriers of black-and-white drawings, giving strength to overcome the boredom of everyday life.
