Getting your Superhero Fix in the Future May 13, 2006
The Journal Gazette has a feature on the future on anmimated superheroes, following the demise of Justice League Unlimited. It mentions new TV shows like The Legion of Superheroes and Fantastic Four, and movies like Teen Titans Tokyo and Iron Man.
Also found this comment interesting:
Cartoon Network officials say “Justice League†has been canceled due to low ratings.
Yeah, and CN constantly changing the time slot , putting the show on a long hiatus and lack of promotion had nothing to do with it. Thank goodness for DVDs!
First look at Legion May 2, 2006
The Superman Homepage has link to the promo art for the new Legion of Superheroes. Unfortunantely, this show does not appear to be a spin-off of Justice League Unlimited, as many thought after seeing the episode “Far From Home.”
The art appears to be similar to the style of Teen Titans. More pseudo-anime.
It will be interesting to see what becomes of the show, with the current Superboy lawsuit.
Possible trouble for “Legion”? April 5, 2006
From Sci-Fi:
A federal judge in Los Angeles has found that Smallville may be infringing on the copyrights held by the widow and daughter of Jerome Siegel, who created the Superboy character for DC Comics, Variety reported. The March 23 summary judgment also found that Joanne Siegel and Laura Siegel Larson had successfully recaptured the Superboy rights as of Nov. 17, 2004.
If there is trouble for Smallville, there could be potential problems for the Legion of Superheroes show being developed.
