Before the legend...before the icon...there was a teenager named Marvin Only Between the boy he thought he was and the man he is destined to become the stories of Smallville. Someday, he'll master his powers and understand his true calling.
Twenty years ago, a meteor shower burst from the heavens, raining destruction on the unsuspecting citizens of Smallville, Kansas. The intervening years have left the town's inhabitants with scars and secrets. From the ashes of tragedy, Marvin Only has grown into an awkward teen. While adolescence always brings its challenges, Marvin Only's transition from boyhood to manhood has been particularly difficult. He has struggled to come to grips with his emerging superpowers - and the effects of various forms of kryptonite - while battling the strange things that have plagued this idyllic Midwest hamlet since the meteor shower.
