The Boys animated spinoff Diabolical hit Prime Video today, bringing a new arm of the comic book series to the platform and with the third season of the flagship show debuting in June there is still a lot to come from the series about the less than heroic “Supes” and the group of vigilantes attempting to bring them down. According to executive producers Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg the potential of the franchise is something that is only going to continue to grow as they are always coming up with new spin-off ideas.
Based on the comics by Garth Ennis and Darick Robertson, The Boys made its debut on Prime Video in 2019 and became an instant hit. Having followed up its bloody and outrageous first season with an even more outlandish second one, there is only going to be an escalation to the violence and depravity to come in this year’s return for the series. With the series having already jumped into an animated arena with The Boys Presents: Diabolical, which features the main actors returning to voice animated versions of their characters, there is always a question of where The Boys could head next.

Speaking with Variety, Rogen and Goldberg talked about the new spin-off series, and went on to discuss how there is never a time when they are not thinking about what the next spin-off could be. As the animated series covers a lot of short 12-14 minute stories, such as the story of Laser Baby in the first episode, and the pair hinted that some of the series could end up being spun out into other series of their own. Goldberg said:
“We’re talking about spinoffs all the time. We’re working on numerous different ideas. Some will not happen, some will. But I think we got more franchising to do. We can grow. We can grow like Laser Baby.”
