This show comes from a comic book series. Though when you see them, you can't help but be reminded of Marvel's Avengers ... even the tall skyscraper headquarters. However, what's interesting is that this is not really an action adventure. It's more of a drama / mystery.

The series has more to do with abuses of super-powers, corporate greed and collateral damage than anything else. It's really refreshing to see this new type story - however, it take a while to get truly engrossing.

The story starts off interesting but then lags for a few episodes. However, it really takes off near the end of episode 5, when a big secret about the drug Compound V is revealed and it keeps going till the very powerful end sequence in episode 8.

Definitely worth watching if you can sit through a slow start.
