Previous Post Set to debut this fall on Cartoon Network:

A kids' cartoon doesn't need to be (and arguably shouldn't be, in certain respects) all dark and brooding, but by the same token, if the retro music is any indication, this show seems to be trying for a deliberately campy tone, which I'd argue is pandering way more toward the nostalgic adults in the audience than to their children. Plastic Man and the new Blue Beetle are GREAT choices for a kids' cartoon (and I'd love to see the new Blue Beetle's hot Hispanic MILF mom from the comics on the show), but including a Silver Age-style Green Arrow on that lineup seems about as out-of-place and self-indulgent as a baby-boomer DJ playing a Warren Zevon song under the pretense that "it's what the young people want to hear."

Still, it looks light-years better than the total piece-of-shit that was "The Batman" cartoon, so I'm cautiously optimistic.
