The twisted tales of The Boys, the dark and subversive superhero saga created by writer Garth Ennis and artist Darick Robertson, has already enjoyed two seasons on Amazon, with a third coming in June. Additionally, there's a spin-off on the way in the form of G-Men, about a college where Supes are trained for their future roles as superheroes and commodities. There is also the animated The Boys: Diabolical, which is promising to go places even the live-action show hasn't gone.
That's certainly what Karl Urban promised back in December through a tweet: "Surprise! We're almost finished with eight episodes of our animation series, Diabolical. We gathered together some incredible creators and we gave them one rule ... just kidding, there's no rules. They blew the doors off it, delivering eight completely unexpected, funny, shocking, gory, moist, emotional episodes. You think The Boys is nuts? Wait till you see this."
Executive producers Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg added in a statement, "Ever since we saw the animated film The Animatrix, a series of short animated films set in the universe of The Matrix, we've wanted to rip it off. Today that dream has come true!"
As you can see in the trailer below, while the animation suggests the classic Warner Bros. style, we're pretty sure that even Bugs Bunny himself would be shocked with some of what unfolds.
