MUTANT CLEARANCE ACT:
The series begins with the city in an uproar due to the new law passed by corrupt city ruler, Boss Angel. He has just made being a mutant in Big City illegal and has ordered the "Mutant Clearance Act" by banning mutants on Earth, capturing them and shipping them off to work on off-world work colonies. He claims the decision was decided by ORCOM, the living organic computer that makes all of Big City's big decisions.

The Outcasts (Bulgarian: Хъшове) is a Bulgarian play, authored by Ivan Vazov in 1884. It describes the life of Bulgarian emigrants in Wallachia, who, destitute, seek the means to fight for the liberation of Bulgaria from Ottoman rule. It is an adaptation for the stage of Vazov's novel Chased and Unwanted and is considered a classic of Bulgarian literature. When the National Theatre of Bulgaria, Ivan Vazov National Theatre, opened in 1904, it was the first play to be performed there, starring Geno Kirov and Ivan Popov. In 2009, Vazov's play was filmed in the series "Outcasts".
