Is there still a Legion cartoon in the works or was that just a bunch of hooey?
Any info is greatly appreciated.

a buddy of mine who works on Justice League cartoon said he's seen 3 proposals for Legion get thrown about -- none have merited a mini-pilot (whereas Zatanna got one - that is, the cartoon network paid $$$ to produce little 2 minute cartoons to test the product)

Paul Levitz referred to a few attempts at a cartoon during the talk in Baltimore. DC seems to want to do one but outside of talks, there doesn't seem to be anything going on.

Don't fret. As soon as the new series is a BIG HIT, it'll be fast tracked at Cartoon Network right away!

A cartoon would be great for raising the public profile for the Legion. And can you imagine the merchandising? Legion of Superhero tighty-whiteys!

Remind me - who did we see in the full lineup shot of their app in the Sman cartoon? I remember Triad, B5, Andromeda, Dreamer, Ultraboy, Apparition and the Ranzzes (plus Cos, Imra & Cham in prominent roles, of course). All in postbootesque costumes (Ultraboy's had more of a stripe than the actual comic suit, IIRC ).
I miss anyone?

A toon would really be great for the team..as long as it's not like another toon of teens that actually makes me cringe. I would like to see it like JLU.

it looks like a Legion cartoon is indeed making it over the development hurdle of cartoon network
while they are hoping for a batman/justice league unlimited animation style, there's a great many cooks in the kitchen (unlike Batman & Justice League which had the strength of a single vision to lead the cartoons)
and there will be no Kid Quantum, as apparently XS 'fills that niche'... ahem

Those are all the images I have saved from the episode. I believe that's all there were but I'm not absolutely certain.

Can you believe they actually put Bouncing Boy in that scene? That was utterly cool. That's obviously a mix of pre and post boot Legionnaires so who do you think the guy in the chair next to Andromeda is? My guess is that it's more than likely Kid Quantum but which one?
I'll bet most of the new guys here haven't seen the Steve Lightle treatment of a possible Legion cartoon either. Any of the older gang know where to find that link?
