Pack your bags because El Rey Network will be transporting you to Tromaville, New Jersey for some ass-kicking toxic vengeance with the classic TOXIC AVENGER films, as well as the animated cartoon series, TOXIC CRUSADERS. This is first time Toxie will be fighting crime on El Rey, so, don’t miss out on all the superhero comedy to come!
