The series was an adaptation of the comic books first published in 2000 through Image Comics, which were written by Bendis with art by Michael Avon Oeming. “Powers” was PlayStation Network’s first scripted series, and premiered in March 2015. The show starred Sharlto Copley as former superhero turned cop Christian Walker, and Susan Heyward as Deena Pilgrim, Walker’s partner in the Powers Division.
