I'm only 4 eps. into season 1 so no spoilers please.

It's an interesting show so far. Feels original enough.

I hear you on the yawn. Marvel and to a lesser degree DC have over saturated the cinemas for about a decade now. If you eve watched 'The Boys' you'd see that there is still some life left in stories of Superheroes. Especially when they are so flawed as individuals. UA has that too but less extreme gore.

I enjoyed it but prefer the boys, much more gritty and the villains are really relatable.
