Ben 10
by Man of Action / Cartoon Network
Ben Tennyson was expecting a boring summer road trip with his Grandpa Max and cousin Gwen. Then a meteor crashed in the woods and a watch-like alien device called the Omnitrix clamped onto his wrist, giving him the power to transform into ten different alien heroes. Now every campground, rest stop, and national park on their route is crawling with alien threats, mad scientists, and galactic warlords — all while Grandpa Max acts suspiciously calm about the whole thing. Spanning four series, the franchise follows Ben from a reckless 10-year-old to a legendary hero, but it all starts with a kid, a watch, and a road trip.
