Cartoon Network announced their newest animated series, Young Justice. Here is how the show is described:
"In Young Justice, being a teenager means proving yourself over and over - to peers, parents, teachers, mentors and, ultimately, to yourself. But what if you're not just a normal teenager? What if you're a teenage super hero? Are you ready to join the ranks of the great heroes and prove you're worthy of the Justice League? That's exactly what the members of Young Justice - Robin, Aqualad, Kid Flash, Superboy, Miss Martian and Artemis - will find out, whether they have what it takes to be a proven hero."
Wait a sec, is Aqualad a black guy? If that is Aqualad, that's a pretty poor stretch to diversify the ethnic range considering Aqualad has been white since the day he was created. Would it have been that difficult to bring back Cyborg, I mean, he was great in the Teen Titans? Natasha Irons would've been a good choice, John Henry Irons' (aka Steel) neice. Anyhow, this is just a minor detail. With DC animated now under the umbrella of "DC Entertainment," I hope they do a bang-up job with their first animated series out of the gates. I'll be keeping my fingers crossed.
