The spinoff “explores the training of the first generation of superheroes to know about Compound V, and that their powers were injected into them, rather than God-given,” per the official synopsis. “These young, competitive heroes put their physical and moral boundaries to the test, competing for the school’s highly coveted top ranking.

“They quickly come to learn that ambition comes with sacrifice, and the difference between right and wrong is not as clear as they once believed,” the logline continues. “When the university’s dark secrets come to light, the students must come to grips with what type of heroes they are going to become.” Watch a trailer here.

Gen V premieres Friday, Sept. 29, on Prime Video with its first three episodes, followed by weekly episodes (leading up to the Nov. 3 finale).
