You can already watch The Super Batman from Planet X and The Power of Shazam and if this trend continues, the highly anticipated Chill of the Night should be up this Friday.

    He also tells an amusing story about his lifelong goal to blow up the Red Tornado.

      Kevin Conroy Guest Stars on Brave and the Bold... as Batman?


    Kevin Conroy defined Batman for television in the 90s, and just like Adam West, he keeps coming back for more! Conroy will be a special guest star on this week's episode of Batman: The Brave and the Bold which airs at 7:30 pm on Cartoon Network. The episode is called The Super Batman of Planet X!

    Batman lands on this distant planet Zurr En Arrh and finds a doppleganger Batman, but more surprisingly, on this planet the Caped Crusader has super powers! Together they battle the mad genius Rhotul, who soon learns Batman's super weakness.

    The world of Zurr En Arrh is one of the many obscure Silver Age references that the writers of Brave and the Bold love to include in the show, this time from Batman #113, 1958. Oh, and Clancy Brown, who voiced Lex Luthor in Superman: the Animated Series guest stars as Super Batman's arch-nemisis Rohtul (Luthor spelled backwards).

      A Firestorm is Coming!

    Next Friday, Firestorm will be making his first animated appearance since Super Powers Team: Galactic Guardians, 25 years ago! A Bat Divided will air Friday, February 5 at 7:30pm (ET/PT) on Cartoon Network.

    A school field trip goes awry when Dr. Double X causes a lab explosion that fuses slacker science teacher Ronnie to his genius pupil Jason, creating the reluctant hero Firestorm…and unbeknown to them, it leaves Batman divided into three parts!

    Based on that synopsis, the current Firestorm, Jason Rusch, will be fused with the original Firestorm, Ronnie Raymond. This is a major change to the character seeing as Ronnie Raymond died which led to Jason inheriting the job.

      Clayface on Brave and the Bold?


    The above picture is a figure from an upcoming line of Batman: The Brave and the Bold Action League mini figures. These figures are only a few inches high and they feature mini super-deformed versions of the characters from the cartoon (think Super Hero Squad).

    I love these little toys and I think the designs are super cool, however, this preview of Clayface looks a little odd. It doesn't really look like any iteration of the character. Is this based on what he will look like in the animated series? I'm not sure if I like that. But I'll reserve final judgement when I see him in the show.

      Aquaman: The Awesome and the Outrageous



    Gotham Knights Online has posted two video clips and a boatload of pictures from tomorrow's episode of Batman: The Brave and the Bold. Aquaman's Outrageous Adventure airs Friday, January 8th at 7:30pm (ET) on the Cartoon Network.

    Aquaman attempts to take a family vacation with Mera and Arthur Jr.,but can't resist helping heroes along the way. Just as he finally promises the family 'no more heroics,' Batman is trapped by the Penguin.





    Writer Ben Jones has posted an amusing account of the events leading up to this week's episode. Apparently they didn't make this episode - they got it from an alternate Earth! Ben explains:

    I know, I know, it sounds insane, but to prove it we arranged an exchange - we couldn't send people or things through the portal, only editing bay data - so we traded the episode of Batman: The Brave and the Bold that we were working on for an episode of their hit show Aquaman: The Awesome and the Outrageous. It's a show where Aquaman teams up with a new hero every week!

    I'd watch a whole show starring the Brave and the Bold Aquaman, wouldn't you? Read the whole story here.

      James Tucker Talks Aquaman


    Over at The Aquaman Shrine, an excellent blog devoted to all things Aquaman, Rob has posted an interview with Batman: The Brave and the Bold producer James Tucker about the creation of Aquaman for the series, as well as plenty of other information about the show. Here are some snippets that I found interesting:

    I immediately thought of Aquaman as a less obnoxious version of Miles Gloriosus, from A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum musical. We wanted to play up the kingly aspect of who he was, but not make him the angry King Arthur under the sea type we had portrayed him as in Justice League.

    Mera and another family member of Aquaman's will appear early in season 2. It's a totally off the wall episode, but I think it shows us a side of Aquaman we haven't seen on the show and be a favorite of longtime Aquaman fans.

    We give Mattel our list of preferred characters who will be featured more than once. There's some give and take between us and them, for instance, if they have a toy promotion designed around Plastic Man, then we will try to make sure he's well represented over the course of the season.

    Usually that means at least a teaser and then an episode devoted to him. Blue Beetle was treated that way and so will Metal Men in the second season. Other than those concessions, the toy company really gives us free reign to do our shows as we see fit.

    Lucky IGN.com gets a lot of neat exclusives. Now, they have an exclusive clip of Captain Marvel's debut appearance in an upcoming season two episode of Batman: the Brave and the Bold! Lucky for us, IGN allows video embedding, so here it is for all of you to enjoy!
