Plot
As per the synopsis on Hulu, "Taking over the world has never felt farther away as the megalomaniacal supervillain M.O.D.O.K. struggles to maintain control over his evil organization and his demanding family." Season 1 sees M.O.D.O.K torn between his plans for complete world domination and trying to make his family work - having run his company to the ground, M.O.D.O.K. is obsessed with bringing A.I.M. back to its former glory.
He ends up signing a deal with a company named GRUMBL that essentially takes over with her new-age hipster trends. While M.O.D.O.K tries to get his company back, he also attempts to save his marriage, bond with his kids and fight an alternate version of his self, that's determined to see him build his own twisted Utopia. The series ends with M.O.D.O.K. finally bonding with his family, but in his pursuit of success, loses them. While he goes on to become emperor of the world, he is now on a new mission - to travel back in time and save his family.
Season 2 will possibly see M.O.D.O.K. engage in some more time travel. Fans can also expect some interesting developments with other characters, such as Lou, seeing that the series ends with two versions of him and possibly a love interest for Melissa too. When a fan recently asked if there would be more plotlines from the source material, Jordan Bum, the co-creator of the series had an interesting answer. "Is it queer? I read the comic. I’m excited about a certain panel and a certain relationship!" asked a fan.
"Yes, Melissa is bi. Season 1 focuses mostly on her relationship with her dad but season 2 will introduce her girlfriend. However there are other queer relationships on the show." responded Blum. When another fan asked if season 2 was confirmed, Blum responded, "Not yet. Just need enough people to watch."
