The "New Era" equals Brady Bunch's Cousin Oliver times three as a group of teenage students is suddenly shoehorned into the book. Mostly they just lurk around the edges not doing much of anything except stealing pages from the original cast.

Unfortunately, the original cast is not doing much of anything either as they are mostly keeping secrets, fretting, trying to go on vacation and tripping billies. With the exception of a brief vampire kerfuffle, it's all set adjustments and exposition set-up for the next volume.

A disappointing Atomic Robo graphic novel is still a pretty good graphic novel though. ( )
