The Platoon of Power Squadron

2009–2017 · 1 season

A grounded, low-key take on superpowers that feels like hanging out with friends figuring out adulthood, with gentle humor and honest emotion.

Overview
In a world where supernatural abilities are limited to comic books and the silver screen, four blue collar twenty-somethings are the only people with actual superpowers. A look at what it would really be like to have superpowers. No wacky super villains, no body armor, no campy fluorescent costumes or holy-anythings something-mans. Just four people trying to realize their full potential. It's hard enough making a living in your 20's, try and make a legacy.
How it feels
Earnest, warm, light and melancholic. Measured and needs your attention.
