After watching the excellent web series Legend of Neil I wanted to check out something else from Sandeep Parikh, and this was his next creation.
It's a cute little thing about a group of peculiar superheroes dealing with budget cuts and misadventures.
While Neil was a fully-fledged and plotted series, Supers is far more episodic. It's got some good performances (I particularly like Mandell Maughan as a burned-out Wonder Woman knock-off) and there are some clever ideas and funny jokes, but there's no center to it. It's a bunch of jokes, some very funny, some less so, but 7 minisodes felt like quite enough.
Still, it's cute and it's free, so can't call it a bad deal.
