Three years later Michele (The Invisible boy) meets his mother and his twin sister. Both have stories and superpowers but their intentions may not be what Michele thinks.

Our read: The Invisible Boy: Second Generation (2018) reads as a neutral, kinetic, inventive fantasy entry — measured in intensity, mid-stakes in scope, measured in temperature, ambivalent in outlook.
