Jennifer Maas TV Business WriterAmazon Prime Video’s “The Boys” is finally giving fans of its Garth Ennis and Darick Robertson-created comic book source material what they have always wanted: Simon Pegg playing Hughie Campbell.

The gift to “Boys” fandom was delivered Wednesday via the trailer for “The Boys: Diabolical,” Prime Video’s animated anthology series set in the universe of the live-action show.In the trailer for the eight-episode “Diabolical,” the different characters and animation styles for each of the the fun-size episodes, running 12-14 minutes, are revealed.

One of those episodes includes Pegg (who plays the father of Jack Quaid’s Hughie on “The Boys”) voicing the original version of Hughie from Ennis and Robertson’s “The Boys” comics.
