Ron Allstetter's Comics Continuum has details for the new seasons of both DC shows and on "Lightning Storm", the next episode of
Legion:
THE BATMAN, LEGION OF SUPER HEROES NEW SEASONS
"Confirming new seasons for both The Batman and Legion of Super Heroes on Thursday, Warner Bros. Animation also dropped major hints at what to expect in both shows.
"Warner Bros. announced Thursday that The Batman, Legion of Super Heroes, Shaggy & Scooby-Doo Get A Clue! and Tom and Jerry Tales will all be back on Kids' WB! for the 2007-2008 season.
"Here's how Warner Bros. describes the new season of The Batman:"
"The Batman, which is nominated for a 2006-2007 Daytime Emmy Award in the Outstanding Special Class Animation Program category, will focus its new season on the introduction of Batman's Justice League peers. Expect amped-up action and heightened stakes as Superman, Aquaman, The Flash and several others work in concert with Batman and even more of his amazing technological wonders to defend Gotham from a seemingly never-ending roster of super villains."
"Alan Burnett and Michael Goguen serve as supervising producers and Kim Smith is producer for The Batman.
"Here's how Warner Bros. describes the new season of Legion:"
"The second season of Legion of Super Heroes finds the group fulfilling their collective destiny, each member elevating his skills to new levels just in time to face even greater challenges. A daunting new villain a destroyer of galaxies from the rich annals of DC Comics puts the Legion into action alongside new team members. Superman returns from the 21st century with greater development of both his physical prowess and far better utilization of his powers to help the Legion toward victory in the 31st century and beyond. Moreover, the Legion finds a surprising, new ally from across the space-time continuum to assist in its efforts to rid the universe of this powerful foe."
"James Tucker returns for this second season as producer of Legion, and is joined by associate producer Amy McKenna and story editor Michael Jelenic.
"Warner Bros. did not release art yet for the new seasons, with the exception of a Season 2 logo for Legion."
LEGION OF SUPER HEROES: "LIGHTNING STORM"
"'Lightning Storm,' a new episode of Legion of Super Heroes, is scheduled to air on Saturday at 10 a.m. (ET).
"Here's how the episode is described:"
"Much to the Legion's disappointment, Lightning Lad accepts an invitation to join an older, 'cooler' team. Once there, however, Lightning Lad realizes these new heroes aren't exactly what they seem. Now, caught between the Legion and his new friends, Lightning Lad must decide once and for all where his loyalties lie."
"'This is one of my favorites of the season,' producer James Tucker told The Continuum. 'Lightning Lad has had the most in-depth storyline. His brother, Mekt, who we introduced in Champions, goes over to the dark side for good. It's more of a Justice League-type episode, and I don't say that in a bad way. It's a little more serious.'
"The episode was written by Stan Berkowitz."
"'It's a kick-ass action episode, but it's got a little more depth to it,' Tucker said. 'It has a lot of weight to it.'
"Khary Payton, who did the voice of Cyborg in Teen Titans, plays both Tyr and Hunter in the episode."
