Rising Stars Resource Center  
In 1969 in the sleepy midwestern town of Pederson, Illinois, a flash of light in the heavens heralds the coming of the "Specials", 113 individuals who are blessed with powers and abilities beyond those of mortal men.

Master storyteller, J. Michael Straczynski, creator of the mold-breaking television series, Babylon 5, chronicles the arrival, lives, and deaths of these characters in a world that has never dealt with superpowers before.
