Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
This is DC's first real 'prestige TV' swing for the new universe—think True Detective with power rings. Lindelof's Watchmen proved he can deconstruct heroes; now he's rebuilding them from rust belt soil.
Tom King co-wrote the Mister Miracle and Vision comics that redefined 'superhero mental health'—expect Stewart's Marine PTSD and Jordan's cosmic isolation to hit similar frequencies.
