Synopsis: Throughout history, the forces of evolution and genetic mutation have endowed humans with astonishing new abilities and features. It's a process that continues to this day, and nowhere is it more evident than in the fascinating world of STAN LEE S SUPERHUMANS.

Co-hosted by Stan Lee, the legendary creator of the X-Men, Spider-Man and the Hulk, the series scours the globe for the real-life counterparts of Lee's characters people with unique genetic traits that translate into remarkable powers. In each episode, these superhumans undergo tests that may help explain their amazing gifts, while viewers discover the long history of people with extraordinary powers. Daniel Browning Smith, who s been dubbed the most flexible man in the world, hosts this thrilling journey into the farthest reaches of humankind.

STAN LEE'S SUPERHUMANS: SEASON 1 includes all 8 episodes

Review: Stan "The Man" Lee is an absolute comic book legend.  He created everyone from the X-Men to Spider-Man, the Incredible Hulk and the Fantastic Four!  I'm on board to check out any project Lee is involved with.  The History Channel scooped him up to explore real people that have super-human like powers.

The show is actually hosted by Daniel Smith, as the world's most flexible man he travels the world to search for interesting people that have super human attributes.  Lee narrates some of the show and appears at the beginning and the end, but by far we see more of Smith.  This season includes people like the human calculator, who absolutely blew us away with his math skills and the strongest man in the world.  They take these people , show you their abilities, and then do testing on them to try and find out why they are the way that they are.  Thats the funnest aspect of this show, they try to back it all up with scientific evidence.  This is one of the best shows I've seen in a long while, another home run for the History Channel!  I hope there is a season two!

Interest Range: Reality, Comic Books, Super Humans
