The Marvel multiverse is a tangled web of interconnected shows and films that can be a bit mind-boggling, especially with the upcoming Avengers: Doomsday and Avengers: Secret Wars, which are expected to feature numerous crossovers from various MCU universes. Before we dive into that chaos, we still have some films to look forward to, like Captain America: Brave New World.
To add to the confusion, there are several animated shows in the Marvel canon that stand apart from the live-action projects and one of them has just been canceled, leaving fans frustrated. That show is Marvel’s Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur. Honestly, I hadn’t heard of it before, but it’s been a two-season run that has now come to an end, much to the dismay of its audience.
The show centers around Lunella, a 13-year-old supergenius who inadvertently brings a 10-ton Tyrannosaurus Rex named Devil Dinosaur into modern-day New York City through a time vortex. Together, they team up to protect the city’s Lower East Side from various threats.
Despite running for two seasons, the show is now being discontinued, with no clear reason given for its cancellation. Fans took to X to express their disappointment, with comments like, “This show was decent. I enjoyed certain episodes,” and “Yeah, that’s disappointing.” Another fan added, “That sucks, the show was awesome.”
This cancellation is just one of several setbacks Marvel has faced recently; for instance, the highly anticipated Blade reboot and the Iron Man continuation, Armour Wars, have both been delayed indefinitely. While the delays for MCU projects are said to be due to a shift in focus towards multiverse adventures, the reasons behind the cancellation of this animated series remain unclear.
Who knows? There’s always a chance that Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur could make a comeback in some form, whether as a continuation or a reboot in the future.
