Summary
The Encanto are a group of superpowered individuals who protect New York. Beneath the masks, however, they're a normal Colombian-American family - The Madrigals - living in Brooklyn.
Well, they're normal to the extent that Alma Madrigal will let them be. She's pushed each and every one of her family members to give back to the community both in and out of costume so much that the Madrigals, a family of renowned scientists, athletes, doctors, and artists are just as big of a household name as their masked counterparts. They truly have become something the late Pedro Madrigal would be proud of.
There was a...brief hiccup. Mirabel Madrigal, fifteen-year-old, never got a superpower. Even then, she never found her niche the way the rest of her family had. She was stuck with average grades, no powers, and no knowledge of her family's secret identities.
And it would stay that way. until one day, an itsy bitsy spider climbed up the Madrigal--
and bit all the way down.

Summary
In the beginning, the Encanto are wary of the newest vigilante swinging her way through New York City. She’s clumsy, she doesn’t know how to fight, and she has no self-preservation.
But as they continue to interact, saving civilians from a whole manner of dangerous villains, they grow closer to the hero. Even though they aren’t related, the Encanto invites the Wondrous Spider-Moth as an honorary member of their superpowered family.
She teaches the Encanto that maybe they don’t need to carry so much, that they are more than just their gifts. As they begin to see her as one of their own, the family of superheroes begin to reconsider their relationship with their unpowered relative, who they have kept away from and in the dark about the family secret.
Mirabel Madrigal has completely shifted away from her family, choosing to drown herself in her own duties as a superhero.
And the more time the Encanto spends with Spider-Moth, it becomes clear that she’s not listening to any of the lessons she has taught them.
