Marvel Entertainment is teaming up with Funko Animation Studios for its latest animated series,Marvel Battleworld, bringing together superheroes from across the Marvel Multiverse.
The first trailer for the short-form animated series sees Thanos use crystals known as Thanostones to transport Iron Man, Groot and Captain Marvel to a newly formed Battleworld. There, the heroes battle strange new foes and team up with Spider-Ham and Throg, a frog worthy enough to wield the power of Mjolnir.

As the team faces threats like the Red Skull, Ultron and the Venom symbiote, alternate versions of familiar superheroes, including a crocodile Doctor Strange, join the fray. Meanwhile, as this unlikely team comes together, Thanos observes in the shadows, gathering his pawns from across the Multiverse.
Marvel Battleworld will be available to stream on a variety of Disney digital platforms, including Disney XD and Marvel HQ. The series ties in with Funko's latest collectible tabletop game,Marvel Battleworld: Mystery of the Thanostones, in which players use their favorite Marvel superheroes to stop the Mad Titan's plot for multiversal domination.
