When I first saw the trailer for Young Justice, I was impressed and shocked. Impressed at how amazing it looks and shocked that I didn’t see Bruce Timm’s name anywhere in the credits. Well producers Brandon Vietti and Greg Weisman have enough street cred to carry the show. Vietti directed Batman: Under the Red Hood and Superman/Doomsday, while Weisman has acted as a supervising producer on The Spectacular Spider-Man. Additionally, Executive Producer Sam Register has overseen many of the DC Universe line of films, including Batman: Under the Red Hood, Wonder Woman, and Justice League: Crisis on Two Earths.
Original Young Justice scribe Peter David confirmed at the San Diego Comic-Con this year that he would be writing some episodes of the series. Along with long runs on the Hulk and X-Factor, David really defined the original Young Justice characters during its original 1990’s run. It was in 2003 when the series ended and morphed into Teen Titans which has been going fairly strong ever since.
The series features Robin, Superboy, Kid Flash, Aqualad, Miss Martian and Artemis (guessing they didn’t use Arrowette due to her lame name). What I have also found surprising is the number of big guns that appear in the show: Superman (Nolan North), Batman (Bruce Greenwood), Green Arrow (Alan Tudyk), Captain Marvel (Rob Lowe), Aquaman (Phil LaMarr) and the rest of the Justice League.
Young Justice premieres on November 26th with a one-hour episode on the Cartoon Network. The series joins the network’s schedule regularly in January 2011. Get an official glimpse of the series straight from Warner Bros.:
