Wonder Man is delightful and we\u2019ve got a lot say about the show\u2019s portrayals of LA, Simon Williams\u2019s existence as a Black Haitian-American actor, the prison industrial complex, queer readings and more. You don\u2019t need to know about Wonder Man to enjoy the show but Brandon gives us the download on Simon Wilson\u2019s comics history.&amp;nbsp; Plus: the parallels with Midnight Cowboy run deeper than you think!
