Marvel Studios and Netflix should do a TV-Ma Howard The Duck show

To cash-in on Seth Mcfarlane's successful Ted movies as audiences are accepting a talking living Teddy Bear and are also accepting a talking Raccoon anthro in a live-action film being Guardians of the Galaxy, i was thinking Marvel Studios and Netflix should do a TV show based on the Steve Gerber cult comics and be more faithful to those comics and make everyone forget about the 1986 film.

It should be a dark comedy (ala Bad Santa or Kick Ass) and Seth Green can reprise his voice role of Howard with effects by WETA and who can play Beverly Switzler? it can also be in the same MCU too. The show can be called "Marvel's Howard: A new Species of Hero".

Excellent idea Cobra. Would you prefer it if Howard was practical or CGI? I don't know if Netflix can afford to do CGI on a TV Budget so to speak. I know Netflix is really not TV it's a streaming service. 

Perhaps a combo of both.

Netflix is the way to go since the comics are adult themed like Punisher or Daredevil or Deadpool.
