Being invisible comes with great responsibility ... and great fun!

In the second installment of this hilarious unlikely-superhero romp, Stanley and Gene master their invisibility powers and face a mysterious new villain bent on their destruction!

Stanley and Gene have joined forces and finally figured out how to control their invisibility. It's obvious to Stanley what the duo should do with this newfound control—fight crime of course! Gene, on the other hand, is not so sure. When the only crime around is stealing a pen from the bank, fighting it isn't all that exciting.

But when a new pair of villains rob Stanley's family store, things get personal. Can Stanley and Gene track down the thieves and recover the stolen goods before his family is forced to sell their home? And who is the mysterious supervillain boss instigating all of this trouble?

These enemies-turned-partners will have to use all their powers and creative problem-solving to face these foes.

طالبني بعض الأهل والأصدقاء والمقربين بتوثيق قصة حياتي، وكلما مرَّ الوقت ازداد الإلحاح، ومعه ازدادت حيرتي! وأمام هذه الحيرة تدفقت على الخاطر جملة من الأسئلة، أولها هو: هل سأكتب بنفسي؟ وبالفعل اتخذت قراري بعد تفكيرٍ عميق: نعم، سأكتب بنفسي. تلاه سؤال ثانٍ أصعب: هل أستطيع أن أسرد كل شيءٍ؟

لا يهم.. المهم أنني سأكتب.. هذا كان القرار.

لذلك لن تجد في هذه المذكرات شخصًا مثاليًّا. فقد كانت لي أخطاء وحماقات، كما كانت لي أفعال أفخر بها. غامرت حتى الثمالة، ودفعت ثمن مغامراتي كاملًا. مررت بنجاحات وإخفاقات. تحمَّلت اختبارات قاسية. حصلتُ على الكثير من المنح، كما تعرضت للكثير من المِحَن.

في رحلتي تعرَّفت على بشر من كل نوع. بعضهم فرحت بدخوله إلى حياتي، وآخرون فرحت بخروجهم من دائرتي، ومنهم مَن ظل في المساحة الرمادية، فأجده بجواري حينًا، وأبحث عنه ولا أجده أحيانًا أخرى.

قد تكون هذه المرة الأولى التي أتحدث فيها عن نفسي، فأنا لست محترفًا في فن الكلام، لكنني.. وللمرة الأولى - وربما الأخيرة - أجدني بحاجة إلى البوح بما يعرفه بعض المقربين منِّي، وبما لم يعرفه أحد من قبل.
