“Diabolical” is set within “The Boys” universe, based on the New York Times-bestselling comic book series. The spinoff features “fun-size episodes,” per a series description, with each episode between 12 and 14 minutes long. Awkwafina, Ilana Glazer, Andy Samberg, Aisha Tyler, Evan Goldberg, Seth Rogen, and original “The Boys” author Garth Ennis are among the “Diabolical” writers.
