The Big Picture The superhero genre is filled with stories of heroism and adventure and some of the most terrifying examples of human depravity audiences have ever seen. Owed in large part to huge hits like The Boys and Invincible, the dark, gritty superhero subgenre has awed audiences with its more realistic view of what a world inhabited by superpowered humans could look like.
I'm a Virgo TV-14DramaComedyFantasy A coming-of-age joyride about Cootie, a 13ft tall young Black man in Oakland, CA. Having grown up hidden away, Cootie soon experiences the beauty and contradictions of the world for the first time. He forms friendships, finds love, navigates awkward situations, and encounters his idol, a real life superhero named The Hero.
The mind behind this series is Boots Riley, whose previous groundbreaking work Sorry To Bother You first introduced audiences to the filmmaker's unique method of using mind-bending comedy to discuss real social issues. The same is true for I'm a Virgo, which focuses on Cootie , a 19-year-old, 13-foot-tall teenager in Oakland who finally leaves his super-sized house to enter the world his parents kept him sheltered from.
In a subgenre filled with depictions of superheroes, this harshness is portrayed as dramatized images of villains and monsters while failing to showcase the institutional severity faced by underserved communities daily.
