Yeah, I like plenty of the DVD movies and what I've seen of Young Justice, but I've never liked that style.

How can the producers of the old days of glory be up to this. Disgusting.
He always says that, don't pay attention to him, it irritates me, really.
"Alot of action" isn't what defines Michael Bay's unrelenting shittiness.

How did they get Hamill back? Thought he'd retired from the Joker character?
After 19 years he did retire, but he came out of retirement to voice the Joker for Batman: Killing Joke movie that is coming...
...also (spoiler tagged for a reason)
in Arkham Knight
Edit: Wrote the wrong movie for some reason, lol
Him getting back into shape and acting, plus filling in for Troy Baker for Joker in the AK.
Plus money
Money? Also the guy is a huge fan anyway, so he wouldn't say no unless he really had to.
Plus he was just in Arkham Knight and is doing a Killing Joke animated movie so... yeah, he's most definitely not done.

I imagine that was just a fib so his reveal in AK could be a legitimate surprise to everyone.

Yeah, good voice actors probably won't be able to make up for that art.
We'll see.
We'll see.
When is the Killing Joke suppose to be out anyway?

As I'm sure many have already said, great voices but that artwork looks like ass, which might be enough to put me off the show entirely.
Looks like its gonna be Transformers Animated all over again...

Proooobably late this year? Justice League vs. Teen Titans comes out in April, and they usually put out 2 or 3 a year now.

Mark Hamill basically does a low key Joker in Flash anyway.
It already is.

Steven Universe and Adventure Time look like they have rather mediocre art styles on just a glance of it and both are also 11 minute shows that pump out genuinely good cartoon episodes often. I'm gonna give it a chance.

I was wondering just last night when we'd finally hear something about this show. Glad that I didn't have to wait long. Hah.
Looking forward to it.

Personally speaking, I'd really welcome a more light-hearted, colorful Justice League series is pretty damn appealing. We've already had a hugely successful Justice League series which already provided us with a more grounded and mature take on the universe. I see nothing them wrong with the showrunners taking these character back to their sunnier, comic book roots. I mean, if the series was just made in the vein of the Tales of Metropolis both comedically and stylistically, it could be a very entertaining show for families.
I'd love to see Tim Daly and Susan Eisenberg reprise their respective roles as Superman and Wonder Woman as well for this, but we'll see. I'm hopeful about this project, at least.

Holy shit Kevin Conroy and Mark Hamill are back. That's fantastic news and I look forward to watching the show.

What do people dislike in particular with the art? I think it looks great. That superman looks perfect.
A great show? Yeah, probably.

James Woods playing a ruthless aging conservative. Sounds about right.

That's my reaction as well. 11 minutes works great for experimental and funny shows. But plot oriented stuff needs 22 minutes to breath, like in the original JL/JLU. When it comes to their major plot episodes, Adventure Time and Steven Universe often feel like they're rushing through dialogue and story events when they're constrained to 11 minutes episodes. This is definitely the worst when it comes to the big story climax episodes, which is why you'll see them do two-part episodes just to reach 22 minutes.
I mean, I can't expect them to switch formats mid-show when the staffs and audiences are used to it. I just wish some of the more interesting stuff and scenes had time to breath.

I'm not sure if that guy in the suit on the top left is either the Question or Constantine.

Batman: The Brave and the Bold was able to pull off serialized plots in its 3-minute opening segments, so it's definitely doable.

I hope it's in the vein of Brave and the Bold, I would love that with all the guest sketches in the background.
Constantine on a kid's show would be...interesting. o.o

Looks like Constantine. I see a actual face or a outline at least.
