This Netflix show is trying to be an alternative superhero show. I don't think that it has any source material. For that alone, I am willing to give this show some credit for trying to create something new. It's not that original, but at least, they aren't digging through the vaults looking for IP. They do dig through legends to find mythical monsters. I do like the three young characters. They have a good mixture of personalities. It takes a few episodes to build up some chemistry. The show is a bit stationary and slow. It's a lesser Netflix show and gets canceled after only one season. It's fine, but I don't need more of it.
