Fail once, try twice more. Although NBC’s Constantine may be gone after a graceless one-season bow, DC Comics is continuing their partnership with the rainbow peacock in an attempt to solidify their domination of superheroes on network television. They’ve already announced Lucifer, and today Deadline reported that NBC would be producing a new office comedy with DC called Powerless. […]
I think I liked the concept better when Marvel did it as a book called Damage Control. Based on the first two sentences I was already thinking great The Office with super powers and then I read that description under the picture. I guess we will see if viewers are into this or not.
I didn’t realize Bendis has taken Powers out of the police precinct and to a DC insurance company.
There was an awesome mini-series that Marvel did a few years back called “Powerless”. Michael Gaydos (Alias, The Black Mask) did some amazing art.
oops, I meant the Black Hood, not the black Mask. sorry
time for THE PRO!
LOL the title is how I’ve felt ever since Dan Didio started ruining all my favorite comics LOL
So DC gets to drink Marvel’s milkshake.
Marvel could have launched Damage Control after the first Avengers movie (a quick blurb at the end, perhaps on a newscast).
Like Six Feet Under, each episode starts with a cameo-battle… say, Hydro-Man battling Frog-Man… causing some collateral damage.
Damage Control then steps in, and that’s the A-Plot for the episode.
Meanwhile, the B-Plot runs the entire season, Each character gets a little development through the season.
Low production cost.
Fans watch and post for the cameos.
Marvel gets to test new characters for future episodes, comics, merchandising, movies…
The general public gets to watch a superhero show which doesn’t involve a lot of background knowledge, and they get to sit with the “cool kids”.
Instead, DC gets to do all that (if the pilot is picked up).
DC is beating the crap out of Marvel on television.
I think we see Marvel television mirroring Warner movies… they want to control everything, keep it all in-house, only on Disney channels.
