Season 1
What happens when superheroes aren't super? In this universe, superheroes are recognized for their ability to fight crime, and regular people are already ceding their activism to the superheroes. In true capitalist form, a corporation is organized to manage crime and the appearances that top level superheroes make. And in true form, the corporation is not really interested in anything except profit. Throw into the mix a group of people with a grudge against the superheroes (personally affected by negligent homicide) and therefore a vendetta to shut down the superhero worship, and a "truly good" superhero on the corporate side. While this is ostensibly a superhero novela, it is more a commentary on power, ego, capitalism and democracy. I like it.
