Podcast Corner: Have a listen to caped crusaders and real-life superheroes
Zoe Kravitz and Robert Pattinson in The Batman.
A conflicted protagonist, a compelling storyline with bumps, bruises, and learning curves along the way, as well as a satisfying third-act climax - just some of the elements that superhero stories need to draw a reader/viewer/listener in.
The seven-part Superhero Complex podcast series from Novel Productions has all of these - and more, with murder, policing, and the undercurrent of drugs all present. The only thing it’s really missing is actual superpowers, as it’s about real-life masked crusaders on the mean streets of Seattle.
