May is going to be a great month for fans of animation. Not only is Rick and Morty finally returning from its winter hiatus with a batch of brand new episodes, but the show's co-creator and star, Justin Roiland, is debuting a brand new project on Hulu. Solar Opposites, which Roiland created alongside former Rick and Morty writer Mike McMahan, is another venture into the wild world of animated sci-fi.

You can check out the official synopsis for Solar Opposites below.
"Co-created by Justin Roiland (co-creator of Ricky and Morty) and Mike McMahan (former head writer of Rick and Morty), Solar Opposites centers around a team of four aliens who have escaped their exploding home world, only to crash land into a move-in ready home in suburban America. They are evenly split on whether Earth is awful or awesome. Korvo (Justin Roiland) and Yumyulack (Sean Giambroni) only see the pollution, crass consumerism, and human frailty, while Terry (Thomas Middleditch) and Jesse (Mary Mack) love humans and all their TV, junk food, and fun stuff. Their mission: protect the Pupa, a living super computer that will one day evolve into its true form, consume them and terraform the Earth."
The first season of Solar Opposites arrives on Hulu on May 8th.
