ABC is developing a second Marvel comedy series, in addition to the previously announced Damage Control.

ABC Entertainment Group President Paul Lee revealed the news ot IGN at the 2016 winter Television Critics Association press tour. He declined to reveal the comedy's title or concept, but did say "in the long term, we'd love it to be" on ABC.

"We definitely want to do Marvel comedies as well as dramas and of course, as you know, we supply lots of dramas to Netflix," he said.

As for Damage Control, he said, "That's the one that's going to be coming out this season. I haven't read it yet. I can't wait to see it. We hope it's going to be great."

It seems there's a lot of Marvel content in the works at ABC. Mockingbird spinoff Marvel's Most Wanted received a pilot order, and John Ridley is working on a secret Marvel project as well.

Marvel television returns to ABC when Agent Carter Season 2 premiers on Jan. 19.
