Amazon Prime Video has announced The Boys: Diabolical, an eight-episode animated anthology series set in the universe of The Boys. News of the series was first reported by Variety following an announcement at Brazil Comic-Con.

　　Diabolical is set to premiere in 2022, and will feature voice acting from Awkwafina, Garth Ennis, Eliot Glazer, Ilana Glazer, Evan Goldberg, Seth Rogen, Simon Racioppa, Justin Roiland, Ben Bayouth, Andy Samberg, and Aisha Tyler. Check out the reveal video from the event below, which features Karl Urban--who plays Billy Butcher--unveiling the new series.

　　"We're almost finished with eight episodes of our animated 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," The Boys executive producer/showrunner Eric Kripke said.

　　The Boys also has a still-untitled spin-off in the works, which was fast-tracked last year on the strength of the Prime Video series. It's expected to take place in a college for young superheroes run by the ominous Vought International--the evil corporation that controls The Seven. Recently, the show was described by creators as being "irreverent" and "hormonal" which admittedly doesn't tell us much, but given the flagship series' raunchiness does give set very clear expectations. The series will need to have its title announced before an air date is rolled out, so it'll be a while.

　　The Boys will return to Amazon for Season 3.
