A Look Behind The Scenes Of PlayStation’s Comic Series, Powers

by Mike Futter on Feb 17, 2015 at 08:40 AM

Sony is giving us a look at the making of its upcoming live action comic book show, Powers. In this peek behind the curtain, we meet the cast and the characters and learn about the world in which the show takes place.

Powers is written by famed comic author Brian Michael Bendis and drawn by Michael Avon Oeming. This series takes their work and transitions it with casting that was driven by the acting rather than trying to align with the books’ visuals.

Powers is set in Los Angeles, and focuses on Christian Walker and Deena Pilglrim, two detectives in the Powers unit. Their job is to police super powered people as best they can. The twist is that Walker used to have powers of his own, and they have since been stripped.

The series begins airing on March 10. PlayStation Plus members will be able to watch the weekly episodes in season one as part of their membership.
