The Powers of Matthew Star background

The Powers of Matthew Star

Matthew Star, a high school student, harbors a secret: he's actually a superpowered alien prince from another world.

Matthew Star, a prince from the planet Quadris, fled to Earth after his government was overthrown by despots. He took on the form of a high-school student with superpowers and was accompanied by his guardian Walt, who became a science teacher at the school. The American government was aware of their origin and occasionally used them as agents.
