What the show is about and Why the show is worth watching:
Jupiter’s Legacy is a superhero series based on the comic book series of the same name by Mark Millar and Frank Quitely. The show follows a group of superheroes known as The Union, who gained their powers in the 1930s after visiting a mysterious island. The story is split between the past, where we see the formation of The Union, and the present, where their children struggle to live up to their parents’ legacy and expectations.
The show is worth watching for its fresh take on the superhero genre, exploring the complexities of family relationships, morality, and the weight of responsibility that comes with great power. The series poses thought-provoking questions, such as whether superheroes should intervene in political matters or whether they have a responsibility to maintain the status quo. The show also boasts impressive visual effects and action sequences that will appeal to fans of the genre.
