MARVEL'S HERO PROJECT
November 12, 2019  | By David Bianculli

Disney+, 3:00 a.m. ET

 
SERIES PREMIERE: This documentary series is the one show, of all the new offerings on Disney+, that made me cry – because it’s so inspirational. The premise sounds so corporate, but it’s all heart: the folks at Marvel comics identify young people who are making a difference in the world or overcoming personal difficulties, and awards them by making them the hero of a limited-edition Marvel comic. “Sensational Jordan” is the title of the premiere episode – and young Jordan, who turns her disability into a glitter-spouting fashion statement, amid other kinds of statements, is indeed sensational.
