If you are here looking for a continuance of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, you may be in for a bit of a surprise. It is not your typical MCU fair as it is much more cerebral with characters discussing motivations.

The series begins strongly with character introductions and building what will be become relationships as the shows progress. Enemies become friends, friends become enemies, and others float somewhere between good and evil. Most characters are complex and multi-faceted in their reasons for what they believe and why.

The acting is first rate, with a few nice surprises as they introduce new characters with some unexpected actors playing the roles. The photography is well done with frequent multi-perspective shots that add to the detail in the created worlds. Lighting is some of the best recent work I can recall with some scenes reminiscent of the amazing shadow work done in the original Frankenstein. Some of the scenery and effects are original and quite well done.

Overall a most enjoyable series. I was drawn into it much more than I expected and looked forward to the next episode. It will be interesting to see what the team comes up with for their next effort. If this is any indication of what they can do, it should be quite enjoyable.
