Within the past few years, the trend for adapting comic book’s into film and television has grown exponentially. Netflix is full of various Marvel adaptations, including Daredevil and Jessica Jones, but beginning November 2017, Hulu is releasing an adaptation of their own. Do you know what series this is for?
