#CAPTAIN MARVEL STREAMING SUPERGIRL TV#
“In TV, DC does a much better job.”ĭC’s experience with TV superheroes dates back to “Adventures of Superman” and “Batman” in the 1950s and 1960s. “Marvel obviously gets it really right when it comes to the films-the tone, the characters-they’re giving audiences exactly what they want,” said Reed Tucker, author of “Slugfest,” a book about the comic-book rivals. While Walt Disney Co.-owned Marvel has seen its superhero films outdraw those from Time Warner Inc.’s DC Comics at the box office, the balance of power appears more even on the small screen.
“What’s the tone and how are we doing it? I would never say we’re through with superheroes.” “The question really is more: What kind of superhero show?” she said. ABC, which also broadcasts the Marvel-based “Agents of SHIELD,” hasn’t said if it will pick “Inhumans” up for a second season.Ĭhanning Dungey, who heads entertainment programming at ABC, said she remains undeterred by the “Inhumans” experience and will continue to delve into the superhero genre. There have already been three cancellations among TV’s superabundance of costumed heroes: “Constantine,” a DC show about an exorcist, died after 13 episodes on NBC in 2015 “Human Target,” a DC show on Fox about a bodyguard who assumes the identities of his clients, was dropped in 2011 and ABC canceled “Agent Carter,” a Captain America spin-off from Marvel, after two short seasons.
