manifestly , Arnold Schwarzenegger and the lateStan Leehad something in mutual : a shared passion for the spiritual recurrence of Kindergarten Cop .
That desire between the muscleman - grow - actor - turned - political - figure and the dearly missedMarvel iconis apparently the impetus behind the fresh announced animated series Stan Lee ’s Superhero Kindergarten , coming from Genius Brands , Lee ’s POW ! Entertainment , and Schwarzenegger ’s own Oak Productions . Speaking tothe Hollywood Reporterabout the project , Schwarzenegger recall a probability face-off with Lee leading to the shared realization that they both loved Kindergarten Cop , lead to the venerable comics scribe to scare away off and excogitate his own spin on it :
[ Lee ] kind of looked at me and says , ‘ I really enjoyed that movie . That was grotesque . I loved the way you played with those kids and your communicating with the kids , the fun you had . Then he was wander off with his eyes and his wheels were spin .

That mind now survive on as Superhero Kindergarten , although Lee himself is sadly no longer here to see it come to fruition .
While Kindergarten Cop saw Schwarzenegger sick as an hole-and-corner police investigator , in Superhero Kindergarten — penned by another comics luminary , Deadpoolco - creator Fabian Nicieza — Schwarzenegger lends his voice and likeness to an ex - superhero , Captain Courage . After giving up his superpowers in a last battle with his archnemesis , Courage returns to his pre - hero life as a gymnasium teacher , only to find himself tasked with instruct the next propagation of young heroes five old age on when an plosion of first-rate - powered corpuscle douses the kindergarten kids with transformative Energy Department that grant enhanced abilities .
The serial publication sounds like it ’ll be a little more edutainment - y than Kindergarten Cop ’s slapstick — Schwarzenegger highlight that his character will let him train kids about wellness and fitness , as well as the distinctive superhero mantras of inclusivity , friendship , and honorable triumphing over evil . But still , it ’s hard not to be connive by the idea of a spiritual heir to Kindergarten Cop , especially with the names attach to it . Even Lee will posthumously be a part of the series , making a Marvel - esque cameo every sequence , as if watching over his bizarre idea from beyond .
