Being a superhero sidekick isn't as fun as you think. You do all the work, beat the bad guys and save the planet, only for your grown-up partner to get all the credit. Junior Justice is sick of it, so he and his sidekick pals, Flygirl and Dinomite have decided to form their own super team. But once the evil Dr. Enok discovers his favourite pet, Goo, has left him to join JJ’s team, the world might need saving sooner rather than later!
