These days super heroes dominate film and television, but today they're coming to a new platform -the messaging app Snapchat.

These days super heroes dominate film and television, but today they're coming to a new platform -the messaging app Snapchat

The mobile messaging app is launching a new series called 'Snapper Hero,' and much like snapchat messages, which self-destruct mere seconds after being viewed, episodes of Snapper Hero will only be available for 24 hours after being posted.

To watch the show, you'll need to download the Snapchat app.

And one of the show's stars, Anna Akana joins Alex Cohen in studio to talk about it.
