if you're offering I'd love it if you could make a poster or anything else for my virtual series Edge of Vision. I'm okay myself at making graphics but not overly creative so I'd love to see what someone else could come up with

Thanks guys I've got big ideas for Edge of Vision. Because of the mystery element I've need to plan well ahead, even to the point where I have a rough plan for the second, third and fourth season (hopefully it will last at least that long ). I am very much looking forward to when it does start airing to see what everyone thinks.

Edge of Vision is a supernatural crime series set one hundred years in the future. Fifty-four years before the events in Edge of Vision the human race was suddenly introduced to an alternate plane of existence when The Fracture was formed. The Fracture was a break in the theoretical wall that separated the human world from its parallel plane of existence, which soon became known as Pandemonium. Pandemonium represented its namesake in almost every sense of the word. It was a place of chaos inhabited by human-like creatures, who became known as Demons, and they were more than happy to cross over to Earth when The Fracture appeared. These Demons were similar in nature to the world’s worst criminals and it wasn’t long before a new branch of the police force was set up to deal specifically with crimes that involved them. Victoria “Tori” Lance (Zooey Deschanel) is one of the Demon Crime Investigative Unit’s (DCIU) detectives and a Sensitive with the ability to tap into and sense the energy from both Pandemonium and the Demons that cross over. Under the watchful eye of their boss, DCIU Special Agent Nora Fields (Paget Brewster), Tori and partner Detective Lloyd Harmon (Michael Chiklis) work to take down the Demons wreaking terror on their city, Barton. With the help and support of Dr. Cassie Brewer (Isla Fisher), DCIU’s coroner, and Technical Analyst Adam Parker (John Francis Daley), Tori’s life is just where she wants it to be. Of course, nothing’s ever perfect for long and Tori soon find herself the obsession of a Demonic serial killer (Callum Blue). Just when she thinks things couldn’t get any worse an unfortunate event leaves Harmon out of action and Tori is left to partner up with the new guy with an attitude problem, Detective Shayne Grey (Eric Szmanda). Even with her skills as a sensitive she never saw this coming…

Main Cast Zooey Deschanel as Detective Victoria “Tori” Lance Victoria, more commonly known as “Tori”, Lance is a Detective who’s been working with the DCIU for three years. With a strong sense of justice and determination coupled with her evolving abilities as a Sensitive she would be one of the best detectives of the unit, if she wasn’t constantly taking risks and mouthing off at her superiors. She’s been reprimanded a number of times but the fact that she’s family friends with the boss and been able to solve almost every case put in front of her as so far been enough to keep her job. She may be constantly crossing lines but the people around her can’t deny her simple desire to find justice in the world. Currently down to appear in all 12 episodes of the first season.
Eric Szmanda as Detective Shayne Grey The newest transfer into the Barton DCIU, Shayne Grey is a cocksure, brazen detective who is, surprisingly, very good at his job. Though his work ethic is topnotch his undesirable personality has seen him moved between DCIU departments every year since he joined the unit. He’s been told this time he has to make it work but will he be able to keep his personality in check when asked to partner with the snarky Detective Lance? Nora Fields has given him one last chance and if she requests his transfer out of her unit he can kiss is career in the DCIU goodbye. Currently down to appear in 11 of the 12 episodes in the first season.
Paget Brewster as DCIU Special Agent Nora Fields DCIU Special Agent Nora Fields is very good at her job. So good, in fact, that she’s been offered numerous promotions and transfers to better paying and higher ranking positions. She’s turned down every one. Nora is happy where she is, running the Barton division of the DCIU where she worked hard to earn the respect and admiration of those working under her. Being a friend of Tori’s father has given her a soft spot for the younger detective but she attempts to remain as professional as possible while they’re working together. Truth be told she’s probably looked the other way far too many times when it comes to Tori’s behavior but you’d be hard pressed to find anyone who would call her out on it. Currently down to appear in all 12 episodes of the first season.
Isla Fisher as Dr. Cassie Brewer Dr. Cassie Brewer is the rather eccentric coroner of the DCIU and Tori’s long time friend. Cassie is much loved by all those working with the DCIU thanks to her vibrant personality and sense of humor. It’s a pity she spends all day working with corpses. Even down in the morgue Cassie is able to light up your day with a smile or wry joke. Sure, she likes to wear rather bright clothes and has dubbed herself “Queen of the Dead” but she’s the best friend and voice of reason (usually) that Tori couldn’t live without. Currently down to appear in all 12 episodes of the first season.
John Francis Daley as Technical Analyst Adam Parker Though it was a little hard at first for the DCIU to take the young Adam Parker seriously he’s quickly proving his place amongst the hardened detectives and has earned the affectionate (and slightly condescending) nickname of “Kid”. A computer wiz at school, Adam was hired by the government as soon as he’d finished his education and moved between departments as needed until he was brought to the DCIU a year ago. He’s Tori’s go-to guy for information, partly because he’s good at his job, partly because he hasn’t turned her down yet. There are rumors floating around though that the reason he’s so willing to help is that he’s harboring a small crush on the detective.Currently down to appear in all 12 episodes of the first season.

Sorry I took so long reviewing, been having a busy week. Anyway, on to what I thought of 'Wonder'.
Overall I really liked this episode. The addition of the Wondertwins is what really made it a great episode for me. They just added an extra something to the episode that made it really fun whenever they were on screen. It's a pity we didn't see more of them though, I'd love to see them on Watchtower again.
Poor Bruce is really struggling isn't he? The confrontations between him and Oliver as 'The Green Arrow' were really interesting. Like a few other people who reviewed I kinda assumed for some reason that Bruce knew Oliver was The Green Arrow so it was good to be reminded that he doesn't. It adds that whole extra dynamic between the two when we see how Bruce reacts to Oliver and then how he reacts to 'The Green Arrow'.
I loved the little throw back to Smallville with the whole- Chloe: You know, cause some strife, grab their attention, and bring them to us. Oliver: Is it safe to assume you’ve done this sort of thing before? I believe I laughed out loud when I read that.
Nice to see Chloe in the thick of it again, always managing to get herself into crazy situations. You got to love her for it though :P Emil saving her at the end has really changed Chloe's opinion of him but I'm not sure if that's a good thing. I think I'm more on Oliver's side with this one, especially with what Emil was doing at the end of the episode, very ominous.
So my rating for this episode is 8.5/10. I really like this one, it was a pleasure to read and I'm looking forward to next weeks episode :)

:D
Thanks :) I've always been a big believer that you can't write anything good without great characters. I try to give them their own voice and make them seem as real as possible and I'm glad that came through in the pilot episode.
I will definitely try and keep the whole mystery element in it for as long as possible. Each season will have a theme to it, season 1's theme is 'chaos'. We're still getting introduced to the Demons and how The Fracture works. Even though it's been around for a good 50 years and humans know the basics of how it all works nothing is set in stone so you will see some evolution in the mythology as our main characters learn more and more.
I'm glad you liked the end. As I mentioned before it was so much fun to write the episode knowing the kind of ending I was building towards.
Thank you so much. I'm glad the series has made such an impression with only a pilot episode and a summary. I hope the rest of the season will make the same kind of impression if it does get picked up for the fall lineup. :)

I'm glad that whole 'mystery' element came through. Since I know exactly what's happening when I'm writing it doesn't feel like as much of a mystery to me and I keep worrying that everything is glaringly obvious :P
I was a bit worried about the slow start but I'm glad you think it isn't wasted. The whole point of having a two part opener was so that I got the chance to introduce the character relationships and also introduce the main story arc for season one without cramming it all into one episode and rushing over things so I'm glad you think the slow start is worth it.
That's one thing I decided early on with the storyline, that The Fracture and Demons were common place. Though a lot of fun can be had introducing something like this I felt the story worked much better if we jumped the whole 'introducing it to the world part' and got right down to the point.
That's one thing I was wondering about, if I should air parts 1 and 2 at the same time or separately. I feel that they can hold their own separately but at the same time they could also work very well aired together. I'll probably just go with what the majority recommends on this point.
I have to admit, writing the cliffhanger ending was so much fun. The yes from you is also wonderful news! :) I've been eagerly awaiting the reviews on this and am glad to get such a positive reaction to it.
Thank you so much. A 9.5 is more than I could have hoped for. I'm glad you thought it was that good.
Again, thank you so much. I can't wait to get an official verdict on this, the waiting is practically killing me XD

This is a well thought out show. You have a great vision and amazing concept. The script format, like you said, needs a little tweaking but it's really good. I enjoyed it. Hopefully this gets the green light because it is an awesome project. :-D I hope it gets the green light too, I've got a massive break between my two semesters at university and working on a virtual series will be a great way to spend that free time
