Something else I hope doesn't suck: The Cape

Give this a look:



Yes, it has a horrible title. Yes, The Incredible's taught us capes are silly. But you know what? I love stuff like this. This is in the tradition of the Pulp Heroes of old: the Shadow, the Green Hornet, The Phantom, The Blue Beetle, the Rocketeer, the Spirit. What do these stories have in common? Just a dude who can do something special, but isn't too lofty to get down in the muck and bust some heads in the name of "The Right Thing".

It looks to have a decent cast, and the first season of "Heroes" showed us that a TV series about something extra-ordinary can do well (as long as they don't get a big head and start to take themselves to seriously... or just expect people to watch because it used to be awesome).

It will probably be silly, and I probably won't be able to watch it because of my jobs, but I hope it's good, and I hope it does well. Just because something is silly doesn't mean it can't also be serious and fun. Serious and silly and fun. That's way better than "suck".
