Gravitas if featured in the G Theory Property

G Theory

Description: The City of New Dayton was once a beacon of optimism and hope for the Midwest, but the digital age brought a close to the blue collar lifestyle facilitating the close of the factory base as those jobs were shipped overseas. As a result the city's center became victim to the forces of suburban sprawl which lead to urban decay. Innocence withers in the city's "Bottoms" where life is desperate and morals are considered a luxury. Meanwhile the Summit View area thrives as a center of Urban Renewal.

Gravitas never thought of himself as a superhero, despite having the ability to control gravity at 15, and leading a team of super powered teens to save the world from the forces of evil. 20 some years later he is a college professor who keeps his head down and his eyes shut to the injustice taking place in his old neighborhoods. When he discovers two very powerful teens from two different sides of the city Gravitas decides to do something about the malevolence that surrounds him. He begins mentoring the teens to become the leaders in the community that can possibly bring about the social change he never could.

More on Gravitas coming soon.

As always, more to come.

Description:
Meet C.J. Atom, the youngest and arguably the most famous member of the Atom Family, who is embarking on her world tour with her band StellarNova! Watch as she struggles with all the stress of being an international celebrity, a corporate spokeswoman, a budding scientist and a teenage girl in the world’s most renown academic academy.

A history of pop icons: StellarNova
Rising from the clubs of Atom Island, StellarNova broke into the pop scene in 2006 with their debut album, StellarNova. The band's latest album, Superliscious Sciencetastic, blends C.J. Atom's easily digested arrangements with energetic guitar work to produce a record brimming with ultra-catchy gems. With unstoppable hit tracks like "TurbonuclearReign Party," look for StellarNova to be a major factor in the pop landscape for years to come.

C.J. formed the band with her friends from the International Peak Academy on Atom Island. Their works merge multiple mediums including dance, painting, sculpture and music. StellarNova stage shows are elaborate circus like atmospheres of spoken word, and an eclectic brew of Jazz, Pop, Blues, and Funk.

As always, more to come.
