Hulk S.M.A.S.H.ed!

ICv2 is reporting that at Comic Con this last weekend Jeph Loeb announced that Disney XD has a Hulk and the Agents of S.M.A.S.H. in development.  This is a new animated series that is being looked at to get Tween and Teen boys into watching.  This is one of the primary reasons Disney purchased Marvel is because they had no properties that drew in the young boy viewers.  We will probably see more of this coming out from Disney as the years progress.
