With the recent pick ups of “Riverdale” and “Powerless,” the list of comics-based television programs is growing at a rate that would seem absurd even two or three years ago. Two “Walking Dead” shows, three shows based on Vertigo properties, Outcast, Powers, Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., six DC shows, Archie’s Riverdale, and all the Marvel Netflix shows. I’m probably forgetting something, but that’s different 20 shows or so on the air in 2015/16/17, even without counting the cancelled Constantine and Agent Carter.
Now, I love comics and I love TV, but this seems a bit much, even for me. So, I’m asking you – are we reaching saturation point for comics on TV? Vote in our reader poll, and let us know in the comments!
