Shows Like The Umbrella Academy
The Defenders
Since the MCU, Marvel’s shelled out tons of other heroes on the small screen. Characters like Luke Cage, Jessica Jones, Daredevil, and Iron Fist have all gotten their own series on Netflix (which are getting cancelled). While the Avengers are busy with their intergalactic threats, we have the Defenders to watch over the city streets.
This Marvel crossover series follows the four aforementioned heroes who team up to take down one common enemy known as The Hand. The Defenders does tie in with the MCU, and while nothing is directly stated, they’re all within the same universe.
Despite its seriousness, this Netflix show does have its fair share of humor and other lighthearted moments between the cast. It’s a more conventional superhero show compared to The Umbrella Academy, but fans will still love it nonetheless.
