What was rumoured a while ago has now emerged blinking into the bright light of reality: US network ABC, home to Marvel series Agents Of S.H.I.E.L.D. and Agent Carter, is developing a new companion show based on the comic book company’s title Damage Control.
Originally published in 1989 the comic follows the power-free duties of the team who are tasked with cleaning up after super-suited types have finished doing battle or otherwise interacting: there are lost ray guns to return to rightful owners, weddings to re-schedule after the intended venue has been vaporised and even the odd parrot to be tracked down when it has been turned to stone. Given the crowded nature of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, which has been known to crossover with the TV side of things, we can expect them to be busy.
Unlike S.H.I.E.L.D. and Carter or any of the Netflix shows, this is being designed as a half-hour comedy with Daily Show/Colbert veteran Ben Karlin and Parks And Recreation’s David Miner planning to bring the funny with what could be a nice little tie-in to S.H.I.E.L.D., which is already looking to spin of one show, Marvel’s Most Wanted, to focus on Adrianne Palicki’s Mockingbird and Nick Blood’s Lance Hunter. And that’s without getting into the still top-secret show being developed by John Ridley.
We’ll have to wait to see if Damage Control comes to fruition – Marvel’s Most Wanted has been through at least one rumoured-scrapped-returned cycle – but it definitely has potential.
