Superpowered: The DC Story (2023)

Review by Darwinskid

Superpowered: The DC Story

A pretty bland and short-sighted documentary.

There is really nothing new here that the series presents to the viewer, virtually every topic that is covered has been explored better in other documentaries in the past, some of which have been made by actual customers for little to no money at the comfort of their own homes. Too many things do not receive enough attention like the impact of the Comics Code Authority, the influence of the characters on culture, how the competition played a role in the redevelopment of the company and its properties, the rise of Milestone Media and WildStorm, the DC Animated Universe that started with Batman: The Animated Series, and the disregard of certain characters and motion pictures dedicated to these classic heroic figures.

This series is only three episodes long, and each one feels more like an ego stroke than an honest projection of passion for DC Comics, with the third and final episode dedicating a section to criticizing its own consumer base and categorizing them in what they think the only opposition represents - it was so pathetic and ignorant, it left me hoping there is a major regime change for the company in the near future.

All that being said, Rosario Dawson's narration is great.
