Janet in a Superhero noir series is interesting (in Ewing we trust) though I hope we do get to see her in some proper costumes.
Also Ewing trying to downplay the whole romantic angle of a "will they or won't they" but I wonder if it might just happen with this version of Victor Shade.
I guess it plays to Ewing's strengths which is more cerebral, genre-bending, adventures with plenty of continuity nuggets over straight-up Superheroics.
