2018 Superhero TV: Dates For New And Returning Shows
Not to be outdone by their big screen blockbuster brethren, TV superheroes have exploded in popularity in recent years, and an increasing number of studios and networks are bringing comic book heroes and villains to the small screen. Even before the new year officially starts, fans are already guaranteed over 25 different superhero TV shows in 2018, with live-action favorites sharing the schedule with animated hits.
