Adult Swim announces the return of Neon Joe, Werewolf Hunter premiering Monday, May 22, starring series creator, Jon Glaser (Girls, Parks and Recreation) as Neon Joe. New episodes of the half-hour live-action mini-series will air over five consecutive nights during the premiere week starting at Midnight E/P.
Season two picks up after Neon Joe finally got revenge on his father and decided to retire from werewolf hunting to satisfy another life goal: opening his tropical themed dream bar, Oahu Joe's. But it's not all peaceful in paradise, as the bar's struggles are compounded by an ominous visit from Joe's past, that forces him to not only confront his demons, but puts Neon Joe back into the werewolf hunting game.
