Amazon just dropped a trailer for an animated spinoff of “the Boys”. The first season is eight episodes, each 12 to 14 minutes long and each animated by a different creative team. The series premieres March 4.

> Our best look yet at the upcoming animated spin-off The Boys Presents: Diabolical is here, and in two and a half minutes, there are more WTF moments than maybe all the seasons of The Boys so far. All eight episodes arrive March 4 on Prime Video.

It looks like it should be a lot of fun. A nice diversity of creators are involved. I am looking forward to it.

I thought they were mostly pretty fun. The Warner Bros-style laser baby cartoon was probably my favourite. The one where the kids kill their parents was probably my least favourite.
