Movies and TV Hasbro and Skybound Confirmed to Be Shopping Around Energon Universe Animated Series

All the way back in June, rumors were going around that Hasbro and the folks at Skybound Entertainment were looking to break the latter's recent smash-hit Energon Universe out of the funny books and into the wide-reaching realm of adult animation.

Well today, as Deadline reports, those rumors have a bit of meat to them, after all.

The word is that they're soon going to be trying to shop around for someone interested in making an adult-oriented animated series out of the Robert Kirkman-helmed new take that combines the worlds of Transformers, G.I. Joe, and Skybound's own secret spice, Void Rivals. Joe Henderson, a producer and writer known for his work on Lucifer, Almost Human, and White Collar, is attached to the project as writer and showrunner. The goal is to make a series that's in line with another adult-oriented comic-to-cartoon adaptation that's proven successful, Kirkman's own Invincible.

With any luck, maybe that will mean we'll get some quality memes out of this one...

It could turn into a DBZ situation instead where they just stall until the comic pumps out the next chapter.
 

wonko the sane?

You may test that assumption at your convinience.

Guys, it's an adult cartoon.

We'll be lucky to get one whole season. Some dimwit is going to see the giant robots, and gijoe, and plop their pet sperm in front of it and then blame the cartoon cause they are failures as parents.
