What I liked

Paul Yen’s deep connection with the material, his witty reconstructions of iconic superheroes and his keen grasp of some pretty complicated social forces are reasons enough to interest almost anyone.

But it’s his execution that makes this performance special. He inhabits his characters, and he commands the room. The show was funny and serious, sad at times, but ended with on careful note of optimism.

If you’re a fan of superheroes, of comics, Anime, Manga, you’ll probably have this on your list. If you go, you’ll be satisfied. And you’ll also be also to say you saw a young actor at the start of the vertical trajectory of his career.

What I didn't like

My overall impression

I loved it.
