Four Marvel Series Announced at Hulu Including 'Howard the Duck'

https://comicbook.com/marvel/2019/0...3VkM5dIYCQE3W5cxHbWxCbsz6IKvtnFSQ1B6UlIILYiEo

Hulu and Marvel Television today announced four new adult animated series. The shows are being developed as part of a new partnership between the streaming service and TV wing of Marvel Entertainment.

The animated shows are Marvel’s M.O.D.O.K, Marvel’s Hit-Monkey, Marvel’s Tigra & Dazzler Show and Marvel’s Howard The Duck. The four series will culminate in a special titled Marvel’s The Offenders.

Here are details on the four series, provided by Hulu in a press release:

  • Marvel’s M.O.D.O.K. centers around an egomaniacal supervillain with a really big head and a really little body, who struggles to maintain control of his evil organization and his demanding family. Writers Jordan Blum and Patton Oswalt will also executive produce along with Jeph Loeb.
  • Marvel’s Hit-Monkey tells the tale of a wronged Japanese snow monkey, mentored by the ghost of an American assassin, as he cuts a wide swath through the Tokyo underworld in this darkly cinematic and brutally funny revenge saga. Writers Josh Gordon and Will Speck will executive produce along with Jeph Loeb.
  • Marvel’s Tigra & Dazzler Show is a story about two woke superheroes and best friends, Tigra and Dazzler, as they fight for recognition among powered people who make up the eight million stories in Los Angeles. Writers Erica Rivinoja and Chelsea Handler serve as executive producers along with Jeph Loeb.
  • Marvel’s Howard The Duck is trapped in a world he never made, but America’s favorite fighting fowl hopes to return home with the help of his unstoppable gal pal Beverly before the evil Dr. Bong can turn him the crispiest dish on the menu. Writers Kevin Smith and Dave Willis will also executive produce along with Jeph Loeb.
  • Marvel’s The Offenders, is a story in which nobody asked them to -- and we’d be better off if they didn’t -- but MODOK, Dazzler, Tigra, Hit Monkeyand Howard the Duck are all forced to team up in order to save the world and certain parts of the Universe. Jeph Loeb will executive produce.
The new partnership continues the relationship between Marvel and Hulu, which began with the debut of Marvel’s Runaways in 2017. The second season of Runaways debuted in December 2018.

The title of The Offenders special is an obvious play on Marvel’s The Defenders, the culmination of the four original Marvel Netflix shows. Marvel and Netflix's relationship seems to be breaking down as Disney prepares to launch its own streaming service, Disney+. Hulu could stand to gain from Disney’s pending acquisition of 20th Century Fox. Purchasing Fox will give Disney a controlling stake in the streaming service.

Fuck all that bullshit, if they ain't bringing back the Netflix joints.
 
Yeah clearly they are using the Hulu for their more Adult oriented shows. The netflix shows would be perfect. They have to wait until next year before they can announce they are coming back though.
 
Only ones im kinda interested in checking out though are Howard the Duck and MODOK, just cuz i always though MODOK was a weird ass villain and didnt understand much about him. Sure they will do a parody version of him though.
 


I honestly don’t hate it. If he can do an American accent and bulks up go for it
 
Thanos without a doubt over bane.

Iron Man just as good as Batman Begins, Civil War may be the Dark Knight, A couple marvel films better than DKR imo.
 
Marvel Studios Reportedly Developing What If TV Show For Disney Plus

"Marvel Studios is reportedly developing a What If animated series for Disney Plus, based on the comics that explore alternate Marvel timelines. While the studio has yet to announce their film release slate beyond this July's Spider-Man: Far From Home, it's been confirmed that they are currently developing multiple TV series for Disney's upcoming streaming service (which launches in the fall). Among the live-action Marvel Cinematic Universe TV shows that are actively in the works for Disney Plus are series about Loki, Vision and Scarlet Witch, and Falcon and Winter Soldier.

However, of all the properties that Marvel has yet to adapt as either an MCU movie or TV show, the What If comics are one of the most intriguing. First published in the late 1970s, What If explores how life would've changed in the Marvel Universe, had key moments in history played out differently than they did in the main canon. The comic books have explored everything from what might've happened if Peter Parker's Spider-Man had managed to save Gwen Stacy's life to how things would've changed if the Fantastic Four had gained alternate super-abilities. Now, it appears that Marvel Studios is adapting the premise for an upcoming television series.

According to /Film, Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige is overseeing the development of an animated What If series for Disney Plus. As one would expect, the stories on the show will not be canon to the larger MCU timeline. However, they will explore relevant stories to the MCU, including What If Vol. 1 #47, which examined what could've happened if Loki had wielded Mjolnir rather than Thor.

A What If series has so much potential.
