"The Robin" in The Batman

The World's Finest over at ToonZone have once again provided an exclusive first look at upcoming character designs for the fourth season of the WB Series THE BATMAN. Only this time, the character they've featured is... Robin! But that's not all-- Comics Continuum also provided two images of the new character, as well as a few snippets of information from their interview with supervising producer Duane Capizzi. It seems clear that the design is an amalgamation of the styles from both TEEN TITANS and THE NEW BATMAN ADVENTURES. Scott Menville will be providing the voice, so fans of the TEEN TITANS animated series can apparently rest easy knowing that at least one part of the show will live on!

Robin Joins The Batman This Fall
Superboy and the Legion of Superheroes Coming to Kids WB!

KIDS' WB! ON THE CW ANNOUNCES 2006-2007 "TOO BIG FOR YOUR TV" SATURDAY MORNING PROGRAMMING SCHEDULE
Released by The CW

KIDS' WB! ON THE CW ANNOUNCES 2006-2007 "TOO BIG FOR YOUR TV" SATURDAY MORNING PROGRAMMING SCHEDULE

Current hit Kids' WB! series returning to the fall schedule include THE BATMAN, with Robin joining the Caped Crusader in his crime-fighting exploits, LOONATICS UNLEASHED, XIAOLIN SHOWDOWN, all produced by Warner Bros. Animation, and JOHNNY TEST, produced this season by Cookie Jar Entertainment Inc.

LEGION OF SUPER HEROES, 11:00-11:30 am: In the year of "Superman Returns" at Warner Bros., Kids' WB! is proud to present a new series developed especially for the "Too Big For Your TV" block by Warner Bros. Animation, inspired by the DC Comics legend. One thousand years from now, a group of teenage super heroes travel back in time to recruit the greatest hero of all, Superman, and enlist him their fight against evil in the 31st Century. While their intentions were good, their time travel skills were not, and Lightning Lad, Saturn Girl, Brainiac 5, Phantom Girl, Bouncing Boy and Timber Wolf end up going too far back into the past, accidentally retrieving the young Superboy instead. Together, this unlikely Legion of Super Heroes bands together to defend the rights of all free worlds and uphold the laws of the newly formed United Planets. That is, if they don't kill each other first. LEGION OF SUPER HEROES combines humor with high-stakes, grand-scale super heroics to create the ultimate sci-fi, super hero fantasy for kids of all ages. Each episode of this fast-paced, character-driven action comedy will pit Superboy and the Legion against otherworldly threats and adversaries who challenge the team on both super heroic and emotional levels. The series is executive produced by Sander Schwartz, and produced by Linda Steiner and James Tucker for Warner Bros. Animation. Look for some of the Teen Titans staff to be working on Legion of Superheroes!

THE BATMAN, 11:30 am-12:00 Noon: THE BATMAN features the most complex and intriguing character in comic book history in action-packed super heroic adventures, melding the renowned character's extraordinary physical prowess and super-sleuthing skills with a new range of experimental Bat-gadgets and an amped-up Batmobile. The series premiered in fall 2004 and picked up Batman's story in his mid-20s, when he's just finding his way as a protector, defender and Caped Crusader, while balancing his public persona as billionaire bachelor Bruce Wayne. In the upcoming third season, the Dark Knight continues his relentless quest to rid Gotham City of its supervillains, but he's not alone. Robin joins the team, and the fabled Dynamic Duo is also occasionally joined by Batgirl. Harley Quinn, Black Mask, Killer Moth, the Everywhere Man and a brand-new Clayface join the rogues' gallery of villains, led by the Joker, Penguin and Riddler, who ceaselessly torment Batman and Gotham City. THE BATMAN is based upon the DC Comics characters and is executive produced by Sander Schwartz and Alan Burnett for Warner Bros. Animation. Duane Capizzi and Mike Goguen serve as supervising producers, and Linda Steiner and Jeff Matsuda are producers.

Superboy-Prime's Revenge

"Last weekend this shot was taken by a fan attending the Supanova pop culture convention in Brisbane Australia , briefly after a seminar hosted by comic book artist Phil Jimenez , a strange blue blur was seen spotted hurtling from the sky and decended on the happless comic book creators Phil Jimenez and Geoff Johns. Bystanders claim that the unusual being was exclaiming "I'M THE REAL SUPERBOY!" before crushing both of the famous creators necks. It is now rumoured that this latest development has halted production of the last issue of the best selling "Infinite Crisis" by the creators and chores will now be taken over by writer Chuck Austen and artist Rob Liefield."

Geoff Johns Hints at Titans Future

The Geoff Johns board is buzzing over the NEW New Teen Titans... And Geoff is on hand to respond to readers!

On Teen Titans #35: "I hope you enjoy what we've got coming up next. In 35 - Find out: What the Brotherhood of Evil are up to! What is Kid Devi's deal with Blue Devil? What is Ravager's greatest fear? And more..."

On plans for Red Star: "Nope. Absolutely NO PLANS for Red Star. He is NOT one of our favorite characters. He WON'T be featured soon... (Tony, think they believe me?)"

On the possibility of a Ravager/Robin romance: " Hahahaha... Just wait."

On Wendy and Marvin: "Sorry to say they aren't going anywhere. If it makes you feel any better they aren't actually team members - as someone else said they're the equivelant of Ma Hunkel in JSA. Caretakers, normal kids (all but geniuses) with ties to another DCU character that will watch over the day-to-day maintenance of the Tower. Plus, they have the files on every Titan that was a member during the missing year...which where QUITE a few."

On Donna Troy in INFINITE CRISIS and beyond: "Donna bought Nightwing a few precious seconds to get to Alex and to stop him from destroying Superman, Superman-2 and Wonder Woman. But what happens to her and her team is going to unfold over the next year. I think you'll all be very interested... ...especially with where Donna ends up."

On Teen Titans future: "Wow. When was the last time we had this much discussion on an issue...awesome. I will only say with 35, which is out I THINK in 3 weeks...you'll see more of the new members, Rose and Eddie, more of the new Brotherhood of Evil and, trust me when i say this, you'll see how insanely hard Tony is working. His art was great on #34...it's twice as good on #35...and twice that good on #36. He's doing some simply stunning work and I couldn't ask for a better partner on this book."

"We just spent an hour yesterday talking through the next storylines taking us through the year and I'm incredibly excited with where we're taking the book. Is it new? Yes. Is that scary? Hell, yes. Superboy was my favorite of the Titans. He was a hero through and through. That's why this team has to continue to evolve...and they're not going to do it alone. Thanks for all the comments. Keep them coming. And look for more mysteries, secrets exposed and the unexpected next issue. As Kid Devil said -- it's the "new" new Teen Titans. We're blazing a new trail. Hope you enjoy the ride."
