AceShowbiz - A new comedy set in DC Comics Universe has landed at NBC, according to a scoop from Deadline. The Peacock has ordered a pilot for "Powerless", a half-hour single-camera comedy from "A to Z" creator Ben Queen and Warner Brothers TV.
The show is based on characters from DC Comics. It's a workplace comedy taking place at one of the worst insurance companies in America about the reality of working life for a normal, powerless person in a world of superheroes and villains.
If the project gets a series order, it will join current DC adaptations on the small screen like The CW's "Arrow" & "The Flash" and FOX's "Gotham". Meanwhile, the upcoming DC shows include "Supergirl" on CBS, "The Legends of Tomorrow" on The CW, and "Lucifer" on FOX.
