Netflix Confirms KID COSMIC Seasons 2 and 3 and There's a Trailer
Kid Cosmic, the latest animation project by Craig McCraken, has been renewed by Netflix for a second and third season. For those unfamiliar, Kid Cosmic focuses on the main character Kid and the locals in his extremely small and remote town. Kid is obsessed with superheroes and gets to live out his fantasy when he discovers five stones of cosmic power. He quickly learns he can’t do everything himself and eventually enlists the aid of a few locals. Here is what McCraken told Animation Magazine about the series:
“For me, making three seasons of Kid Cosmic has been one of the most creatively rewarding experiences of my career. Working in cartoons, it’s easy to get stuck making the same kind of episodes over and over again. But with Kid Cosmic, we loved the freedom to not only make each season different, but to allow the characters to grow, to change and to learn from their experiences,” McCracken shared. “In these three seasons of Kid Cosmic, we get to explore the idea of what it truly means to be a hero, as each season focuses on a different character and a different theme. In Season 1, The Kid learns that heroes help; in Season 2, Jo discovers that heroes care; and finally, in Season 3, it is Papa G who accepts that heroes sacrifice.”

I’m very excited to see more of this show, especially since Jo is one of my favorite characters. Has anyone else watched the series yet? Here’s a trailer for the newest season coming out:
