2023. All the Jeff Loeb’s Marvel Television is considered extinct. All? No, a murderous monkey refuses to die and the fact is that the platform Hulu has decided to renew ‘Hit Monkey’, the animated series for adults, for a season 2. In Spain we can see the series through Disney +.
Co-created by Josh Gordon and Will Speck. the series follows a Japanese monkey whose entire tribe is killed. He will then ally himself with the ghost of a murderer to take revenge on the yakuza. In this second season, Bryce and the monkey will travel to the United States.
Offenders, but not much
A late renewal coming more than a year after the premiere from the first season, back in November 2021 (he arrived in Spain a few months later). The future of the series was in question with the integration of Marvel Television into Marvel Studios and, above all, after the cancellation of ‘MODOK’ after its first season.
In this way, ‘Hit Monkey’ remains the sole survivor of the plan of “The offenders”, four adult animated series that would end up coming together in a crossover. Of these four we could only see this one and the mad scientist villain, leaving us wanting to see ‘Howard the Duck’ and ‘Tigra & Dazzler’.
