Synopsis: This original DC Comics documentary is the first of its kind: a compelling look at the company that created the modern super hero, produced with unprecedented access to the archives of Warner Bros. and DC Comics. Both a celebration of the best writers and artists in comics and a thoughtful exploration of seventy-five years of DC Comics history, Secret Origins combines insights from respected historians; interviews with some of the most influential comic book creators in history; and excerpts from comics, films, and television shows to bring the story of DC Comics to life in vivid and unexpected ways.

Secret Origin: The Story of DC Comics 7.5

A basic overview of the history of DC Comics, home of Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman and so forth. It’s good, but a little short on details; it’s hard to resume 75 years in 90 mins, I suppose.

There are some fabulous interviews with writers, artists and various industry players along the way, including archival footage of Siegel and shuster as well as Bob Kane, but it’s hardly definitive.
