Marvel's Avengers: Hero Morphs

**Marvel's Avengers: Hero Morphs** is a Tokusatsu-inspired superhero animated television series produced by Hollowfox Television Productions and Disney Television Animation in association with Marvel TV Studios and developed by Aaron Montalvo, Christopher Yost  and Eric Rogers.

It is a CrossMore-based/set Marvel series with the characters from Marvel Comics as young adults. The animation is made by Bones, Studio Mir and SMIP Co. Ltd.

The series is rated TV-14 and started airing on May 29, 2020, on Atomix Central under Chromix.

## About the Show

During the development of *CrossMore: The Series*, Montalvo wants to develop a Marvel series separate from the CrossMore universe set for a 2019 release.

The project will be a co-operated series production by Hollowfox Television Animation, Marvel Animation, and Walt Disney Television Animation and will be a superhero series but with inspirations from Tokusatsu elements from Kamen Rider, Super Sentai, Power Rangers, Ultraman, and even the creator's Harmony Unleashed superhero concepts.

However, the focus on CrossMore and Kevin Feige's restructural change in Marvel Entertainment by bringing Marvel Television and Marvel Animation to Marvel Studios has led this project to be delayed. Until it was finished with the intention to be in the same universe as CrossMore Royale and CrossMore: The Series, as well as its other planned direct spin-offs and Marvel Studios' involvement.

His inspiration for the story was from Lauren Faust's DC Super Hero Girls reboot, Avengers Academy, Power Rangers/Super Sentai, Young Justice, the Marvel Cinematic Universe, and My Hero Academia.

The series' character design is provided by Jose Lopez (Big Hero 6: The Series, My Little Pony: The Movie (2017), Generator Rex), who is also an art director in this series. The armor and suit design is made by Takashi Okazaki (Knights of the Zodiac: Saint Seiya, Afro Samurai) with co-operation from Lopez.

The series has been renewed for another season.

### Premise

In the same universe as CrossMore: The Series, a world of heroes has been made through an unknown magical alien force that made college student and current boss of Stark Industries, Tony Stark, develop gizmos of transformation as similar to "Japanese superheroes" or "Henshin Heroes". However, Nick Fury has seen the potential between the gizmos to form an alliance of heroes under the same umbrella, known as the "Hero Morphs Avengers"

## Episodes

The planned set of episodes for Season 1 will be 28, while the prequel short-form series will consist of 10 episodes. Currently, it has been renewed for a second season set to be released around 2021.

The series airs on HolCom Network's Atomix Central under the Chromix block. Disney will also have American syndication rights to be aired on Freeform and FX Networks (under the FXX network due the latter being part of the Disney-Fox merger plan since 2017) and is set to air in August of 2019 on both networks. In Canada, the series will be airing through ABC Spark and HFXN Canada.

In Japan, the series will air with a Japanese dub on TV Tokyo, TV Osaka, TV Aichi, BS Japan, and AT-X, as well as Disney network sibling FOX. And HolCom Networks International will also air the series on HFXN. The TXN/AT-X versions of the Japanese dub will contain opening sequences similar to other anime series.

## Spin-offs

Montalvo has stated that he's thinking of having spin-offs for the series, similar to CrossMore: The Series.

### X-Men: Mutant Morphs (2022)

Announced for 2022, an X-Men centric series will be developed by Montalvo, Craig Kyle and Greg Johnson (the latter two which developed Wolverine and The X-Men) and will take place after the events of Hero Morphs Season 2, which had a backdoor pilot episode for the X-Men.

## Possible crossover film

Montalvo said that he wants to make an X-Men/Avengers Morphs crossover movie with Marvel Studios co-producing it while being separate from the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
