The Brain is Magneto
Maurice LaMarche, Brain from Pinky and the Brain (and Pinky, Elmira and the Brain, and the Animaniacs before both of those) will be voicing the master of magnetism himself, Magneto, in the upcoming Super Hero Squad animated series.
Ka-Zar, Wasp and Screaming Mimi in the SHS Cartoon
Comics Continuum has a news bit about Kevin Sorbo (from Hercules and Andromeda) voicing Ka-Zar in the upcoming Super Hero Squad cartoon. To top that off, House’s Jennifer Morrison will be voicing the Wasp, while her younger sister, opera singer Julia Morrison, will be voicing Screaming Mimi. Now we can cross Wasp and Screaming Mimi off our list of characters with unknown voices, and we can add Za-Zar to the list of guest stars!
More Super Hero Squad Animated Voice Cast
We’ve updated the wiki with the most recent Super Hero Squad Cartoon casting information.
Hulk – Voiced by Travis Willingham
Jean Grey – Voiced by Hynden Walch
Black Cat – Voiced by Tricia Helfer
Human Torch – Voiced by Travis Willingham
Dr. Doom – Voiced by Charles Adler

If anyone spots other announcements feel free to correct or add information! So far we’ve got about a voice list for about one-third of the around 40 announced characters, but surely there’s more information out there!
Taye Diggs as Black Panther
Comics Continuum reported yesterday that the Black Panther will be played by Taye Diggs. Marvel isn’t lying when they said this was a star-studded voice cast but I hope all these big names doesn’t mean a string of one-shot cameos. In other words, if scheduling doesn’t work out, does that mean those characters don’t get to come back later? Hopefully this won’t be a problem and all these great characters can make return visits.
Super Hero Squad Casting News
Apparently Comics Continuum has been busting with Super Hero Squad casting news these past few days. While the actors themselves aren’t new, it’s great to know who they’re playing. For instance, Grey DeLisle as Ms. Marvel and Enchantress (visit her home page too for information on her past voice-acting, her music, and how to get autographs), Robert Englund as Dormammu, and Michelle Trachtenberg as the Valkyrie! Great voice talent? Awesome character appearances from all over the Marvel Universe? Hopefully the show is as fun as it looks!
Super Hero Squad trailer
This has been on Youtube for a few weeks now, but I haven’t seen anyone talking about it. It’s a handcam (or maybe cell phone) video of the New York Comic Con presentation of the Super Hero Squad trailer. It’s never going to be all things to everyone, but the cartoon looks like it will be a fun time.
Super Hero Squad on Cartoon Network
Marvel.com has news about the animated Super Hero Squad coming to Cartoon Network. 26 episodes, premiering in “late 2009″, Marvel has the following to say about voice talent:
Superstar voice talents slated to play the roles of the dynamic heroes and villans of include: Tom Kenny (“Spongebob”), Charlie Adler (“Transformers 1 & 2″), Steve Blum (“Wolverine and the X-Men,” “Hulk Vs.”) and Grey DeLisle (“Fairly Oddparents” and “The Replacements”).
Not enough for you? How about some gigantic guest-star voices including: Wayne Knight (“Seinfeld”), LeVar Burton (“Reading Rainbow,” “Star Trek: The Next Generation”), Michelle Trachtenberg (“Gossip Girl,” “17 Again,” “Buffy”), Greg Grunberg (“Heroes”), Lena Headey (“Terminator: Sarah Connor Chronicles,” “300″), Adrian Pasdar (“Heroes”), Tricia Helfer (“Battlestar Galatica”), Jennifer Morrison (“House”), Tamera Mowry (“Twitches,” “Sister, Sister”), Robert Englund (“A Nightmare on Elm Street” films) and Stan Lee as the Mayor of Super Hero City.
Hopefully it lasts longer than Fantastic Four: World’s Greatest Heroes.
