This autumn has seen five new shows, adapted or derived from comics, debut on our TVs/streaming devices. We are/have covered four of them so far: Watchmen, Raising Dion, Batwoman, and Stumptown. We wanted to cover Daybreak, but our TV crew was just a tad bit busy covering all the other shows. Maybe next year!
Anyway, these are all really different types of comics, and really different adaptations. Watchmen is a sequel, Stumptown is retelling the early issues, and Batwoman is less an adaptation and more of a dumping of a character into the pre-existing CWverse. None of those are criticisms, they are just highlighting that this year’s new comics shows don’t fit into one easy package.
So, which of these shows is working best for you? Is there one that is already among your favorite TV shows currently on the air? Vote in our Reader Poll, and check back on Monday for the results!
