Favourite super hero comedy? Harvey Birdman. Which would also be one of my favourite lawyer comedies. Bizarrely enough, I didn't connect the Birdman/lawyer thing until you yourselves asked the rhetorical question. But hopefully this does well, because I like the concept. Just wish he was a villain who took on superheroes in court - I think the title would still work!

No one is brave enough to tell Laura her job isn't actually to take selfies around the office all day.
Well, Intern Steven tried once. No one's sure what happened to him.

Director Doug Groves checks the audio from behind the sound baffler. Devin files because Laura doesn't do that.

It's so sad when a sound baffle comes between an actor and his director.

    To the part of the video where they mentioned no such thing as a super hero comedy..:
    So.. No one heard of Harvey BirdMan Attorney at Law? :p Don't get me wrong I love the idea of this show but it's not the first nor is Harvey. There's even Dr. Horrible's sing along thing..

    Definitely a good explanation of what makes this show different from any other. It's high time there was some kind of super hero comedy in town!

    I want to see more costumes. Something like a new costume every week with more and more tights. That's what is selling this show here in my opinion. TIGHTS

    It would seem that you ARE the only ones doing this, which is crazy because superheroes are just ripe for the plucking, comedically speaking, of course. I, by no means, think you should actually try and harvest superheroes; they are very fussy about that sort of thing!

    Sorry this one is not working for me, the dialogue is too on the nose to be funny and the acting is flat.

    Also went to bed and realized that Birdman has a sidekick/pet named Avenger, who is an Eagle. And his sidekick was a sociopath, renamed to 'Peanut'. The best writers know how to hide their sources, and you guys made it almost four weeks without me noticing. So you did a good job!

    Mystery Men, the Incredibles, anything with Deadpool in it...She-Hulk is comedy and she's a super hero/lawyer...

    Still, joking aside (what are we here for?) This looks like it could be very good. My biggest concern so far is that the special effects are kind of lackluster, but hopefully that's where some of the funding will go.

    I think Dr. Horrible might count as a comedy at first but then it just turns tragic. Any way, I look forward to seeing more of Super Legal.

    Great idea guys. You are right it is the only super-hero themed comedy I can think of. (Good call on the talking to real folks about that). I also really like Andrew's acting. Great job.

    LOVED the laying out of cases, and the cornball end line! It shows there's decades worth of criminal and civil cases that can be mined from comics. Also, Laura is clinically insane - Harley Quinn with a sword insane.

    Interesting concept but not a lot of depth in the material. This show will run its course within a season and the half. I still don't understand why the girl has to be incredibly stupid. My two cents

    Interesting concept. Is the girl's character going to be so stupid...? I feel like a all around incompetence from the characters would be better than having one fall guy, or girl. But yeah, I haven't seen much, if any, super hero comedy. Maybe on adult swim.

    Not actually the only superhero comedy out there, but it IS however the only superhero/lawyer comedy, and that has me intrigued.

    It's great that you have a unique concept but I'm not sure if it would really work as a comedy, seems more of a drama. I would like to see more of the show in later weeks to see how you guys manage to keep the humour in the series. Good luck with the competition!

    That was hilarious! Very original concept, there's a lot of material to explore in the various comic book universes that could be explored in a legal context. This reminds me of the tv show Angel where a law firm was introduced to the demonic world and it took a refreshing turn for the genre. This is the comedic, heroic equivalent.
