Produced for Adult Swim by Cartoon Network Studios, “Super Mutant Magic Academy” is based on Tamaki’s comic of the same name and will be produced by Cartoon Network Studios. The series, like the comics, will tell the story of Marsha, a transfer student at a fantastic high school where her classmates include a wide array of super-powered mutants alongside other humans.

First, Regular Show coming back, and now, a TV adaptation based off of a comic book done by JG Quintel? Color me surprised.

Thoughts?

I wonder if this is a “you scratch our back” situation for Quintel, Warner basically saying “hey, we’ll give your new series a shot if you have any new ideas for Regular Show, repeats have been doing well on CN”.

Daria mixed with My Hero Academia? IDK. I'm not to familiar with Super Mutant Magic Academy comic book. So this completely new to me.

Could be possible. After WB screwed over JG Quintel with Close Enough, they thought doing more Regular Show will make up for it.

It's good to see JG Quintel getting another series.
