Born to be Bad (Mischief and Mayhem #1) by Ken Lamug introduces Mischief and her side-cat, Mayhem, as your respectably heinous villains. They have no qualms about spoiling new movies, stealing cake from parties they weren’t invited to, and hitting the good citizens where it’ll dirty them most—their toilet paper.

Before Mischief and Mayhem embraced their supervillain identities, they were just Missy and Gizmo, fresh recruits at superhero boot camp. However, Missy had lied on her hero application and possessed precisely zero superpowers, relying solely on her brainpower. When caught and humiliated, she was kicked out, finding solace in Melvira—the only fellow camp recruit willing to stand by her.

Unbeknownst to others, Melvira harbours her own villainous agenda, one that involves helping Missy cross the line into villainy as her new alter ego, Mischief. Yet, something about Melvira doesn’t sit right with Missy. Soon, Missy will be called upon to battle her former best friend. But will Missy be able to face the friend who was once her defender?
