Does anyone remember the old X-Men cartoon? How the animation was so cool and didnt have one unrecognisable name in the list: Rick Hoberg, Jimmy Janes, Romeo Tanghal et.al?
How the same cartoon re-introduced viewers new and old to such classics as the Phoenix/Dark Phoenix story arc?
If Hanna-Barbera (now that would be a coupe!!!) could take on the project, maybe Legion Animated would be a darn good idea.
JL/JLU has some stunning visuals, but still tend to draw Superman, Batman and others as throwbacks to the old WW2 cartoons....i hope the trend doesnt get incorporated into the Legion. I shudder to think that Jason Pearson or Jason Armstrong (who did great work on ships and machines and stuff but less well on actual human-type folks) would be called upon if any of the old Legion art-teams be recruited to supply input.
Bring back the quality of animation enjoyed in the early 80's-early 90's and i may have to revert to my second childhood LOL

Sorry to disagree, but I think you missed the boat on this one, Charles. Zap Brannigan is clearly based on Captain Kirk from Star Trek, and the actor who played him, William Shatner.
