BATMAN: BRAVE AND THE BOLD Coming to Cartoon Network

Batman: The Brave and The Bold is slated to air next year as a 30 minute animated series on Cartoon Network.

Here's the show description from Cartoon Network:

"Batman isn't going at it alone this time! From Warner Bros. Animation comes the latest interpretation of the classic Batman franchise. Our caped crusader is teamed up with heroes from across the DC Universe, delivering nonstop action and adventure with a touch of comic relief. Blue Beetle, Green Arrow, Aquaman and countless others will get a chance to uphold justice alongside Batman. Though still based in Gotham, Batman will frequently find himself outside city limits, facing situations that are both unfamiliar and exhilarating. With formidable foes around every corner, Batman will still rely on his stealth, resourcefulness and limitless supply of cool gadgets to bring justice home."

Blue Beetle! How cool is that? I wish it were Ted Kord instead of Jaime Reyes, but I will take what I can get. I still like the character of Jaime as well. Now if they have The Question on this series at some point too I will be very happy.

I also think it's interesting to note that they went with the original red gloves, boots and mask design on Green Arrow.
