'Doom Patrol' Ep 2 review: From flatulent donkeys to sentient cockroaches, the DC show screams uniqueness!

The DC superhero show has just released its second episode, and its strangeness had us hooked at hello
PUBLISHED FEB 22, 2019

What a ride! 'Doom Patrol' first came out amidst a flurry of mixed emotions as many viewers hadn't any idea who this rag-tag band of contemporary heroes were.

The DC series from showrunner Jeremy Carver follows a team of uniquely quirky and downright odd superheroes, who each have suffered horrible accidents that’s given them specific abilities, but left them a shell of their former selves, as they work together to find a common purpose while investigating weird phenomena.

After bringing together Robotman (Brendan Fraser), Negative Man (Matt Bomer), Elasti-Woman (April Bowlby), and Crazy Jane (Diane Guerrero), mad scientist Niles Caulder, aka The Chief (Timothy Dalton), mysteriously disappears; but Cyborg (Joivan Wade) presents them with a mission that will force them to face their own fears, if they are to succeed.
