I just found out about a new series premiering on Cartoon Network on November 14, 2008 and it's called The Brave and the Bold. It's based on a comic book series of the same name that was published in the late 50's and 60's. It's been revived many times. The concept is always the same: an anthology series in which Batman teams up with other heroes to solve problems that neither character would be able to solve on their own. I saw a trailer on TV tonight and it looked great. Stylistically, the art in the series is a departure from all the ways Batman has been done throughout my life time. It harkens back to the art of famous comic book artist Dick Sprang. It looks really exciting. Newsarama.com has posted the following episode summaries of the first three episodes.
Friday, Nov. 14: "Rise of the Blue Beetle! " - Batman and Blue Beetle team up to save an alien race from Kanjar Ro.
Friday, Nov. 21: "Terror on Dinosaur Island! " - Batman and Plastic Man thwart Gorilla Grodd's plot to devolve humans into primates.
Friday, Nov. 28 :"Evil Under the Sea!" - Batman aids Aquaman as Ocean Master and Black Manta team up to assassinate him
