Genre: Action
Tilføjet: 11/1 2026
Denne serie er baseret på Gene Luen Yangs banebrydende tegneserieroman, “American Born Chinese”, der fortæller historien om Jin Wang, en almindelig amerikansk teenager, der får spoleret sin drøm om at "rykke op" i det sociale hierarki, da en ny udvekslingselev, Wei-Chen Sun, ankommer. Jin kæmper med politik på sit gymnasie, et racistisk meme fra et tv-program fra 90’erne og den excentriske nye fyr, der følger efter ham som en skygge overalt, og han ender med at spolere sin chance for at komme på fodboldholdet samt ødelægge sit rygte. Men efterhånden som Jin lærer Wei-Chen at kende, opdager han, at den nye dreng er søn af den berømte Dragekonge Sun Wukong fra kinesiske myter. Da Wei-Chen får Jin til at hjælpe sig med at finde den Fjerde Skriftrulle, som rygtes at findes, må Jin kæmpe med problemer i både Himlen og i skolen, der tvinger ham til at finde sin egen identitet. Igennem familie, humor og vild Kung-Fu lærer Jin, at hans sande superkraft er at være sig selv.
