Global streaming platform Netflix announced during the Netflix Animation Studio Focus Panel at the 2021 Annecy International Film Festival on Tuesday the main staff and a character visual (pictured) for the anime adaptation of Mark Millar and Leinil Yu's Super Crooks comic book.

Synopsis
One last heist. That's what they all say, right? Just one final score, and everyone can retire and take up fishing. Thing is, the jails are filled with super villains who thought the same thing, and got busted. But the Heat's in a jam. He's run up the kind of gambling debt that - if he can't pay it back in cash - will be paid in blood. Nobody wants to see the most beloved supercrook of all time rubbed out by the mob - especially his biggest fan, Johnny Bolt. And Johnny's got a plan to help the Heat and make all his buddies disgustingly rich at the same time. Unfortunately for Johnny's recruits, they have to head to Spain and rob the world's most notorious super villain blind. And that's where things get tricky. (Source: Marvel Comics)

It's actually a Japanese shows. It's animated by Bones, the staffs are also Japanese. It's just based on Western comic.

Was the original western comic trying to be anime-ish?

No, it's just simply a Japanese anime animated by Japanese studio and Japanese staffs and adapted from American comic (just like X-Men, Wolverine, The Animatrix)

To be honest, I've never understood shows like this. You are simply selling Western shows under the guise of anime to Western audiences.

Not everyone is entitled to have your opinion on shows and getting a 78/100 is anyday a good score.

Ok so they hired bones for this and not for record of ragnarok
What the hell

Netflix is the publisher. RoR's produced by Warner Bros Japan. The anime was announced in 2020 and Netflix wasn't mentioned at all. It was suddenly announced in 2021 that they're gonna stream it. I can't understand why you all can't comprehend that Netflix didn't make RoR.

After the fail Jupiter's Legacy now they make this an anime. Hilarious. I don't know why but I think this will be way better. 😁

Deviman is hard to watch & understand, doesnt mean its garbage.
Yes, Yasuke is trash.
But if u tell that Beastars, Dorohedoro, Great Pretender & Violet Evergarden is trash, I think u need to refresh ur taste.
Netflix make a lot of bad stuff, I agree. But that doesnt mean they dont make good stuff.

dont run from fact its just trash
and i didnt say VE or Beastars and GP was bad(Dorohedoro was average with trash cgi) but if you are like that kind of people:OMG it was so sad, im in mood for 2 week or oh i hate my life this life is nonsense
pls just leave anime industry
