Marvel's 616 director Paul Scheer wants to introduce you to a Marvel Comics superhero team like no other: Brute Force. As he discovers in his episode "Lost and Found," Brute Force is an elite squadron of intelligent, cybernetically enhanced animals with a thirst for justice. The 1990 miniseries by Simon Furman and Jose Delbo introduced Soar, Wreckless, Lionheart, Hip Hop and Surfstreak. Now, Scheer has brought them -- and several other forgotten Marvel heroes -- back to life for the small screen.

Speaking to CBR, Scheer and Marvel's 616 executive producer Sarah Amos shared their process of discovery for "Lost and Found." They described the series as a "love letter" to Marvel fans and revealed which lost character surprised them the most. They also discussed how they joined the project, where this episode fits into the series at large, why researching Brute Force cured them of their skepticism about the industry and more.
