This was a fun start to a series. Reminds me of Invincible (which I loved).
In short, these glowing floating orbs are found by a handful of people and once touched, it transforms them into these superhero beings. Some people are using these powers for good and others for bad/selfish reasons.

A superhero origin story where the hero is typical down on his luck white guy who finds a cool cosmic black hole thing that turns him into a superhero and he's just kind of like "okay, yeah, this is my life now."
For an introductory volume, the story does little to make the characters engaging or memorable, or bring any kind of new breath or life at all into the narrative. It's readable, but not engaging.
Though there is a plot twist somewhere around the end of issue 4 that genuinely did surprise me.

The first volume is a good time and accomplishes a lot when it introduces a universe through the lens of a sympathetic main character and make's you interested in coming back for the continuation.

The art and characters are the main appeal here. I don't know how big a fan I am of the whole Power Rangers shtick that's being set up. But it's very good. Don't know if I would read more, but definitely enjoyed this.
