Timm Talks Green Lanterns

December 15th, 2010 Comments Off Posted in DC Animated

MTV’s splash page has this interview with Bruce Timm about both the Green Lantern Animated Series and Green Lantern Emerald Knights direct-to-DVD movie. Emerald Knights takes a page out of Gotham Knights and features 6 interlocking tales of the Green Lantern Corps, while the animated series will be an extensive cosmic adventure dealing with the rage of the Red Lanterns so don’t expect appearances by Superman, Batman or Wonder Woman, or the Black Lanterns for that matter, any time soon.

Television Round-up 9/2/10

September 2nd, 2010 Comments Off Posted in DC Animated

There’s been a lot of random oddball television news so maybe it’s time for a run-down…

First off, on the Brave and the Bold/Scooby Doo team-up, a throwback to the original, uch loved and fondly remembered Scooby Doo story of days gone by, will be titled “Bat-Mite Presents: Batman’s Strangest Cases” according to Comics Continuum.

CC also reports that Brave and the Bold returns with the Starro two parter on September 17. Those with iTunes or having seen the episode using thier cable or satellite provider’s on-demand services should not spoil the ending because that was the best part of any Batman Brave and the Bold episode so far.

The first season of Human Target, based on the DC Comics series will be out on September 21.

And finally, talk of the Sandman series on HBO becomes just a bit closer according to MTV’s Splash Page

August 9th, 2010 Comments Off Posted in DC Animated, Marvel Animated

Comics Continuum is posting news that the upcoming Green Lantern animated series won’t tie into the movie and will be computer generated, as will (possibly) the Batman follow-up to Brave and the Bold. Other tidbits include: Jim Krieg is the story editor for that Green Lantern cartoon, and that Hal Jordan, Kilowog and a Red Lantern will anchor it.

In unrelated news, they’ve also posted an interview with Cort Lane regarding the upcoming second season of Iron Man Armored Adventures so head over there to view the news, and head over to our message board to discuss!

The Complete Batman Beyond on DVD

July 27th, 2010 Comments Off Posted in DC Animated

In the tradition of the Complete Batman the Animated Series, TVShowsonDVD reports that Warner Brothers is putting out the Complete Batman Beyond!  A 9-disc set, featuring an art book and all 53 episodes of the series.  This is great news, and hopefully, following the Complete Batman, Complete Superman and Complete Justice League, we can expect a complete set of The Batman and Teen Titans some day.  More importantly, Static Shock and the Legion of Super Heroes still haven’t seen complete DVD releases, so they’d be great additions to the library!  Head over to the message board to discuss.
