Hulu making Marvel based Adult Animation

Like they are all done pretty soon. I can only assume that these are only still happening at all for a season because they were too well along to cancel outright.

 

No they’re not.

 

I had a thought reading the Marvel animation news. Given their current TV and movie output, I think Howard the Duck would work better as a DC property as long as it wasn’t a CW show.

Extending it further, I’d probably put Doctor Strange and stuff like Shang-Chi over there. While I don’t think it was bad, maybe the MCU could get Aquaman, he seems a good ensemble player.

 

I'm disappointed they aren't moving forward with Howard The Duck, of the four shows that was the one I was looking forward to the most.

 

I blame Kathleen Kennedy.

 

Patton Oswald and Jordan Blum, the showrunners for the M.O.D.O.K. animated, which is apprently still happening, have also written a comic, which will be coming out in December.
This is going to be set in the regular Marvel universe, and does not appear to be connected to the show.

 

I'm guessing that MODOK was so far along, animation wise, that it would have been throwing money away to stop making it (like Helstrom). It will be interesting to see, it was one of the two cartoons I was interested in (the other being the cancelled Kevin Smith Howard the Duck cartoon).

 

EW.com has a new article about MODOK, that includes some new details about the plot and our first pictures from the series.
I did not realize before this article that it was stop motion animation, I had assumed it was going to be 2D traditional animation.
There is also going to be an NYCC panel this evening, so I wouldn't be surprised if we get a trailer tonight.

 

They didn't show a trailer, but they did show a clip during the panel. Io9 has the panel with the clip at the start embeded in their article about it.
I just watched the clip and I thought it was pretty funny.

 

MODOK coming May 21 to Hulu

Cool. I'm really looking forward to that, it looks hilarious.

 

That looks interesting. I'm pretty sure its the last Marvel TV project started before Loeb and crew were gone to come out, and its an interesting end to that era.

 

Marvel has revealed the poster for M.O.D.O.K.

 

We've got a mad scientist fight!

 

Wow I thought that was a Robot Chicken skit. Still, I liked it.

 

Yeah, it does give off Robot Chicken vibes, but I like Robot Chicken, so that's a good thing in my book.

 

With Jason (Duckman) Alexander...
