Halls of the Dark Muse

As some of you may recall based on other things I have posted in the past I love dance, so I have recently come across the most perfect thing for me. It is this really original and unique idea. It is a web series called the LXD (League of Extraordinary Dancers) and it is done in a sort of comic book style. And what I mean by that, is that is that each of the episodes is called a "Chapter" and it is about typical comic book type stuff, good vs evil. A legion of superheros, and super villains and that sort of thing.

Basically it is a story that is told through the use of a variety of different dance styles. This league of superheros called the LXD express their super powers through dance, and also fight scenes are done using dancing which is pretty cool. Yet at the same time it is done in a way that is not really like a musical, where they randomly will just start breaking out into signing and dancing. The dance is actually used in a way to express something specific that is happening in that scene but in a way that makes sense and not just like ok everyone break out into a dance number.

In this sires, in a way it is like the dance is actually used as a metaphor for something else. Like with the fight the scenes, for example there would be these two people who were break dance back and forth at each other as a representation of the fact that they were physically fighting.
