Warner & DC Comics Providing Content to Digital Platform

ICv2 is reporting that DC Comics and their parent company Warner Bros. are producing a live action Titans television series and will bring back the Young Justice animated series.  This will be done on a new DC branded direct-to-consumer digital platform and will debut in 2018.  This is great and I hope they will put them out to market for consumers to purchase to place within libraries for all of us that can’t afford all this different digital platforms that all the companies are starting up, because you know their will probably be a fee.

Fun Young Justice AMV

Here is an AMV that I really enjoy on YouTube.  The contributor is xXTess4evaXx and is under the query “We Are Young — YOUNG JUSTICE”.  “We Are Young” is performed by 3Oh!3, which is a great song. Tell your patrons to search under either the contributor or the AMV title to find it on YouTube.  It is also below for all to enjoy.  Great job xXTess4evaXx.

Young Justice on DVD

DC Comics is announcing that the Young Justice animated series, Season 1 Volume 1, will be available on DVD on July 19.  If your not the one who submits orders for the library, let that individual know that you want to add this title to your library’s Animation Section.  Follow the link to DC’s article.

DC Nation

An interesting team up that librarians might tell their readers of DC Comics and animation fans about.  On DC’s site it is reported that Warner Bros. and Cartoon Network will team up to bring about DC Nation.  When this will actually become part of Cartoon Network’s programing in 2012.  However, this will be interesting to see if DC can sustain a block of Cartoon Networks program scheduling.  Some titles mentioned was the current Young Justice series and a new Green Lantern series.  Jump over to DC’s site for the articles.
