On September 15, 2023, all comments for Littlemore's videos were turned back on and he announced he is returning to post on YouTube frequently as well as explaining how he has been impersonated and doxxed multiple times and he will continue making cartoons. The status of the any potential revival of the reboot remains yet to be revealed.

** Lucifer Killingsworth was inspired by Scar from ''WesternAnimation/TheLionKing'', Jafar from ''WesternAnimation/{{Aladdin}}'', Professor Ratigan from ''WesternAnimation/TheGreatMouseDetective'' and Sideshow Bob from ''WesternAnimation/TheSimpsons''.

However, these plans were not to be. In June 2020, several cast and crew members of the reboot left the production and parted ways with working with Littlemore due to repetitive instances of him creating lewd artworks of [=JoJo=] Violet, Penny Bleat and Victor Virus on social media, trying to implant inappropriate context on both the series' scripts and in personal engagements between him and his crew, emotionally abusing fellow colleagues and friends based on accusations of his behavior and forcing his fetishes on other crew members without giving them permission to do so. After a confrontation between former friends and casts, it was confirmed that production for the reboot officially ceased. As a result, Littlemore deactivated the majority of his social media accounts, hidden all comments on his videos and stated from that point forward, he would never return to social media.
