Jupiter's Legacy

Post by Tsyroc »

A show based on the Mark Millar book Jupiter's Legacy is coming to Netflix pretty soon.

I read the book for a fair bit as well as one of the spin-offs and then got distracted by new parts not being out. I'm sure they are now.

Anyway, it was pretty good and the adaptation looks well done. We (or I) might be reaching super being overload though. :)

I didn't like it. Stupidly slow, writing wasn't great, and lots of circumventous bullshit to get 1/4 of the way towards halfway through the comics' opener.
The "Superbastards" animated series was excellent though. (Animation really should be the way to go with these things)
