I did not expect this to be on Comedy Central of all things.

Is Golden Axe really a comedic series?

As far as I'm aware, no.

I would temper any expectations, personally.

It's kind of a weird choice to put this on Comedy Central, unless this was a parody of sorts for the actual Golden Axe game.

Think they could even base the show off the arcade game ending where everyone bursts out of the arcade into our realty?

The things Sega will do with this franchise instead of just re-releasing Revenge of Death Adder.

I guess Brianne Drouhard is in this because she tweeted about working on something with "buff scantily clad warriors" (her words) and she liked my tweet asking if it's Golden Axe.

And David DePasquale (art director on CN's upcoming Invincible Fight Girl) revealed he's art directing the show!

Not enough animated works out there with buff scantily clad ladies.

Can't help but think of Kröd Mändoon and the Flaming Sword of Fire.

Granted, no one has thought about Kröd Mändoon and the Flaming Sword of Fire in decades, but it's an interesting comparison.

[up] ...I literally never heard of that show. And it was in 2009? I feel like I should have known about it to some capacity.

I mean, the page was made in 2015, so somebody has thought of this in the years since.

My biggest worry is that this is going to be one of those stupid/slapstick comedies based around the main character's incompetence.

Like a bad 80s cartoon.

A Golden Axe adaptation—and by people who primarily work on comedies, I gather? I'm... intrigued. Interested to see more...

Granted, no one has thought about Kröd Mändoon and the Flaming Sword of Fire in decades, but it's an interesting comparison.

Like TargetmasterJoe, I don't think that I've ever heard of that one! And it looks like something that I might enjoy!

I wonder whether it's available anywhere that I have access to...

The creator of this show is the guy who created Star Trek Lower Decks. I have faith.

Also, it’s just nice to see the guy has his next big project lined up after Lower Decks got canned.

Sadly, yes, but let’s keep that discussion on that show’s thread.

Golden Axe series has gone from Mega Drive games to Sonic the Comic stories to tv.

And it’s the same producers as the Sonic movies.

If it's from the same producers from the Sonic movies, do you think Golden Axe and the Sonic movies would eventually cross over?

The name did not make me think of anything at all, but after looking at that page, I'm sure I've seen a episode of this somewhere. Which is extremely strange.
