Having watched 2 eps, I can safely conclude I'm not liking this series very much. I'll admit though it's partly because I didn't grow up reading western comic books, so it doesn't ring any nostalgia bells. The other part is that, superhero based movies have been booming since about 5 years ago in the cinemas, and I'm growing sick of them. Batman, Spider, Ironman, Fantastic Four, Superman, Tron etc. and now we have Thor, Green Lantern and Captain America coming up.
Nonetheless, interesting concept and premise regarding superheroes sponsored by corporate bodies. I'm sure fans of the genre will love it (ANN for example, which is primarily categored towards US viewers are hailing it as the best of the season). Unfortunately for me, after 2 eps, I am dropping it.
