Doom Patrol has been renewed for a second season and will be available to stream on two streaming platforms. 

News of the series renewal was confirmed by writer and executive producer Jeremey Carver at San-Diego Comic-Con on Saturday evening.

The series is a reimagining of DC’s strangest group of outcast superheroes. Robotman (Brendan Fraser), Negative Man (Matt Bomer/Matthew Zuk), Elasti-Woman (April Bowlby), and Crazy Jane (Diane Guerrero) led by the mysterious Dr. Niles Caulder (Timothy Dalton) suffered horrid accidents that gave them superhuman abilities, but also left them disfigured.

According to Variety, Doom Patrol has been the most well-received DC Universe series to date with season 1 scoring a 95% critical approval rating on Rotten Tomatoes. It will be available to stream on two platforms — DC Universe as well as HBO Max, WarnerMedia’s upcoming streaming service.
