Episodes
The Unseen Price of a Holy Grail
Owning a $3.5M Superman #1 comes with a price: 40 years of oppressive family secrecy, untreated Asperger's (ASD), and an obsession that causes great mental strife. How have comics like this one become so highly valued, and is it all worth it? The underbelly of the comics fanatics subculture starts to show itself.
Can He Rewrite This Story?
In a search for help to handle the mental and physical workload, Darren comes out about his collection. From meeting the most charming circle of comic fanatics, to giving first-time access to his newly built Fortress of Solitude, Darren's inner world rears its head to show just how much his father affected him.
The Value in Question
This family portrait expands as we meet Darren's younger brother Adam, their equally collection-obsessed Aunt Linda, and access untold history about their father. This tumultuous time capsule collides with the collection being anointed as truly world class, making the filming of the documentary increasingly stressful as Darren faces what could be the biggest sale of his life.
Will the Real Superman Please Stand Up
Breakdowns, internet trolls, media misunderstandings... What is the truth, and who decides? Can Darren be authentic, and at what cost? He searches for the origin of his dad's Superman #1 while we investigate the inherent value of our beloved hero, Superman. Is super power based on ability, on morals, on achievement? Is our truth determined by the past, or is it in our hands to decide now?

Abbott Elementary
In this workplace comedy, a group of dedicated, passionate teachers — and a slightly tone-deaf principal — are brought together in a Philadelphia public school where, despite the odds stacked against them, they are determined to help their students succeed in life. Though these incredible public servants may be outnumbered and underfunded, they love what they do — even if they don't love the school district's less-than-stellar attitude toward educating children.
