NBC will debut their new superhero drama, ‘The Cape’, tonight (January 9th) at 9pm with a 2 hour premiere. The series will then move to its Monday night 9pm one hour time slot.
‘The Cape’ is a new drama series starring David Lyons (‘ER’) as Vince Faraday, an honest cop on a corrupt police force, who finds himself framed for a series of murders and presumed dead. Faraday becomes “The Cape” – his son’s favorite comic book superhero – and takes the law into his own hands.
Dirk Van Tilborg
After reading Jack Kirby’s Forever People and New Gods comic books and watching 2001: A Space Odyssey, Dirk was assimilated during first grade recess into the collective known as Science Fiction. Fueled by the visions of mad scientists such as Philip K. Dick and Frank Herbert, he has quietly searched the galaxy for the next BladeRunner, Brazil and Dark City. Born in San Francisco and currently enjoying a steampunk version of Ft. Lauderdale, when not grokking Science Fiction he spends his time with family and friends and just maybe trying to enter the dreams of disingenuous politicians.
