Where are all the badass, chocolate-skinned, foul-mouthed crime fighters when you need 'em? Well all you suckers gather round, because we've got the exclusive first look at Adult Swim's much-anticipated new blaxploitation animated TV series, 'Black Dynamite' (premiering spring 2012), right here.


There's been a lot of buzz about the new 'toon -- based on the 2009 movie about an African-American action star in the '70s -- and Adult Swim will show a little sneak this Friday at Comic-Con. But before they premiere the full 11-minute pilot on Mon., Aug. 8 at AdultSwim.com, we've got the exclusive sneak peek at the first preview of the show.

The series follows Black Dynamite, an ex-CIA agent and certified ladies man avenging his brother's death by battling it out week to week with kung fu masters, drug-dealing pimps and his nemesis, The Man.

Carl Jones of 'The Boondocks' fame is running the show, with the stars of the movie -- including Michael Jai White, Tommy Davidson, Kym Whitley and Byron Minns -- returning to voice characters for the animated series.

Watch our exclusive preview right here:



Here's what else we know from the movie trailer: Black Dynamite is super cool and he knows kung fu; he drives a $5,000 car and wears a $100 suit; and when it comes to the ladies, he's out of sight. He's badder than Shaft, Superfly and The Mack put together. That sounds pretty bad to us, in a really good way.


What do you say: Does the animated series look even better than the movie's Cinemaphonic Quadrovision? Will you watch?
