[Update: Now with the official trailer!]
During Friday's sneak peek at the new Green Lantern: The Animated Series, Cartoon Network ran a brief, minute-and-a-half teaser for their previously announced DC Nation block of programming. Set to premiere sometime in 2012,* it will be a dedicated slot in Cartoon Network's schedule for GL, as well as the returning Young Justice, animated and live-action shorts, and intersitials. While both CN and DC were light on details about the other titles appearing in this block, it looks like some of the DCU Animated features might show up in there include tie-ins to the upcoming Gotham City Imposters game as well as Plastic Man, both of which I can get behind.
Our own Valerie Gallaher ran down some of the particulars for the DC Nation block when it was announced earlier this year in its official press release:
Debuting in 2012 as a multi-platform franchise, DC Nation will be the exclusive home for original DC animation properties. Backed by the production, publishing and marketing resources of Warner Bros., DC Entertainment and Cartoon Network, DC Nation will be an on-air and online programming block populated with event programming, interstitials, exclusive behind-the-scenes of theatrical production and an insider look into the world of all things DC.
“DC Nation on Cartoon Network will be the first-ever dedicated broadcast destination to showcase the depth and breadth of the DC Universe,” said Diane Nelson, President of DC Entertainment. “We and our partners at WBTV are thrilled that fans will be able to immerse themselves in DC’s phenomenal stories, experience a wide spectrum of amazing characters and stay up-to-date on the latest happenings of the world’s greatest superheroes and their creators, both on-air and online.”
*Yeesh, pick a date and let us get all stoked about it, already, guys.
