If this is as good as Boys and Invincible (and first season of Umbrella), indie comics are really having era of renaissance.
Lots of Production and Behind The Scenes images...

Hey don't get me wrong I love The Boys, I love Invincible, I liked the 1st season of Umbrella Academy, but those are some front runners, it's about to get ugly.
Funny enough, I love the boys, invincible, and even the umbrella academy. Those are great examples of spreading out the superhero genre, to give some grounded and realistically dark perspectives. I think the more success these type of series/movies get, the more we are going to see others try to cash in as well. Oh this comic is getting a live action adaptation? oh it became a success, hey i got this comic here, make it one too! Its just like when the walking dead got huge at the spawn of zombie popularity. Look at the series now tho, we have 3 separate shows from the comics, multiple games, and a bunch of other oversaturation of the genre. They ran it into the ground with very very little originality. I was a HUUUUUGE zombie fan back around like 2004 and loved zombie stuff, it was common but not so popular you saw it everywhere. Go 15 years into the future and its everywhere. Superhero stuff thanks to the MCU has become so widespread popular that its just in every facet now and so many adaptations are coming out of nowhere to get a piece of that pie. It will definitely only get worse the more saturated it gets. Quite unfortunate. Its why trends die out, they get so overly exposed, we get sick of them and move on to the next big thing.

Everyone is doing it and its coming out of the woodwork. I do find them interesting but when you have so many, its hard to not feel a blending and they lose their identity in all of it. At least with Marvel and DC stuff they feel drastically different from eachother. MCU stuff definitely feels more grounded and less like alot of these other shows.

I fear the fatigue is going to set in quickly, it's all starting to feel the same.

Not familiar with the source material but not really impressed with what I'm seeing here.
