At NYCC , the producer of DC Comics ’ coming liven up series Green Lantern and Young Justice told us about the villains and danger Hal Jordan , Robin , and Superboy will face . Also , who will be on Young Justice ’s JLA ? Spoilers ahoy !
First , we caught up with the Green Lantern team , executive manufacturer Bruce Timm ( Batman : The Animated Series ) and producer Giancarlo Volpe ( Clone Wars ) and Jim Krieg ( Ben 10 ) .
Timm offer a fairly detailed summing up of what viewers can expect from Green Lantern : The Animated Series :
98 % of the show is coif in infinite , so we do have muckle of opportunity to divvy up with other Green Lanterns . Kilowog is in practically every installment , Salaak shows up , but there ’s not so many in the former episodes . You wo n’t see DC hero like Batman and Robin picture up , at least not anytime soon [ … ] We will see a little fleck of Earth .
The show takes plaza on the edge of Guardian space and the show starts off with Green Lantern getting kill off on this edge . So Hal borrows a prototypical , fast - than - brightness level ship and he and Kilowog go to investigate . They quickly come upon that there are the previously unknown Red Lanterns consistently killing off the Green Lanterns .
In the first 13 episode , Hal and his gang are stay put out on the edge of space . Hal ’s not a greenhorn , but he ’s not a old hand . We actually keep that middling unaffixed . We did n’t want to go back and do the rookie fib again because we did that in First Flight and that ’s what the movie ’s going to be about . That ’s really well - traveled ground .
We tried to make him on Captain Kirk ’s level of experience . It wo n’t survey the continuity of the movie , but we draw from the same author [ … ] We ’ll definitely be getting to Sinestro finally ; we are n’t sure when we can do that .
Unlike other superheroes , the Green Lantern has to report to somebody . He has to cover to these piddling blue men who are all kind of cranky . He like upsetting the Malus pumila pushcart in front of them sometimes . He really has a love - hate human relationship with them . Hal becomes stranded in the first arc , but he is able-bodied to keep in contact with The Guardians .
to boot , the producers also mention that constructs would very much play a large role . We ’d see recitation , tools , and all manner of deadly implement . Of course , Hal ’s constructs will be snarkier than the others :
Giancarlo Volpe : We ’ve jest about making Hal ’s construct ocular pun . He ’s a prankster who blackguard his enemy as he beat them up , and it ’s through the constructs . There ’s a lot of opportunity to have fun .
Bruce Timm : Kilowog of form just crap hammers .
Timm was tight - lipped about whether we ’d see lantern from the other vividness in the spectrum appear , but he did mention that we will see a slew of Green Lanterns ( he would n’t confirm if we ’d see F - Sharp Bell ) . He also read that the New Gods unequivocally would not appear .
Next , Young Justice producers Brandon Vietti ( Batman : Under the Red Hood ) and Greg Weisman ( the Maker of Gargoyles ) filled us in on the new superhero squad who ’ll act as the Justice League ’s covert operations extension .
Greg Weisman : We ’re adapting Teen Titans , we ’re adjust Young Justice , we ’re adjust the whole DC Universe . We ’re fix on Earth 16 in the DC multiverse and we ’re sort of form ours a young universe of discourse . Superman ’s only been around 10 eld , the Justice League ’s only been around three or four age . Robin ’s been around four years . The others have been doing it for even less time . Speedy for three , Kid Flash for two , Miss Martian has n’t done it at all yet when our series starts . So we ’re keeping it vernal .
Brandon Vietti : It ’s a show about teenagers who materialize to be superheroes [ … ] They ’re a cover ops social unit , and that will have repercussions in their lives , with their wise man , their parents , all kinds of thing [ … ] The villains we will see are Mr. Freeze , Icicle Junior , Killer Frost , Captain Cold , and Black Manta ; that ’s the five that we ’re revealing , obviously there ’s a quite a little more .
GW : Last time I checked , we had over 150 DC torpedo and villains in the show . We have a really pocket-size handful of original fictitious character in the show . From the Justice League , the braggy three are Batman , who assigns them their missions ; Red Tornado , who is their den female parent ; and Black Canary is in charge of their training . The other fibre let in their single mentors ( like Superman and Martian Manhunter ) , other heroes like Guardian and Speedy , and the Justice League , whose line - up admit Wonder Woman , Captain Atom , Captain Marvel , Zatara , Hawkwoman , and others . We have a 16 - member Justice League .
Weisman and Vietti also did n’t want to bring Deathstroke into the fold as he ’s so closely associated with the Teen Titans mythos — the villains will however be have their own covert ops young superhero team to undermine Young Justice .
Weisman also noted that they “ date every episode ” to chart the team ’s progress . Audiences will be able to determine how much time has yesteryear , and the total first time of year takes place within a six - month menstruum . Former Young Justice scribe Peter David will also be writing two episodes of the first season .
A prevue of Young Justice will run November 2010 on Cartoon web and the serial publication will formally debut Spring 2011 . Green Lantern will run late 2011 on Cartoon internet as well . Here ’s further info fromthe NYCC Green Lanternpanel .
