Much like The Venture Bros., the great animated show Metalocalypse is finally coming back with a straight-to-DVD movie to tie everything off. This was a great show on Adult Swim, about a death metal band that actually caused deaths and was building to some type of apocalypse. But then the series was cancelled without ever reaching that apocalypse or any actual ending. And the last episodes aired in…holy crap! 2013?! Are you kidding me?! It’s been an entire decade?!

Anyway, wow, uh, so someone was willing to give Metalocalypse the ending it deserved and we’ll be getting it straight-to-DVD with Army of the Doomstar.

Looks good to me. Looks like classic Metalocalypse of old, and it will hopefully be a fitting finale to all the greatness that came before. Jeez louise. Time passes at lightning speed, people.

This new movie will be available digitally and on Blu-ray on Aug. 22.
