"The JUSTICE LEAGUE DVD box set is jam-packed with exciting episodes and hours of content which will be a wonderful addition to any fan's collection and make a great holiday gift." "JUSTICE LEAGUE, and especially JUSTICE LEAGUE UNLIMITED, offered us a very fun, creative format in terms of the stories we could tell and the characters we could feature," said producer, Bruce Timm. "We did smaller, more intimate tales and epic, cast-anybody-from-DC stories, and thematically we went everywhere - from supernatural episodes to science fiction to straight-up heroic themes. It was our first series where we deliberately planned the character arc development from the start with long-term ideas, and were able to let the characters go where they would naturally - and sometimes they surprised us. And because we had this huge cast to choose from, all of the characters stayed fresh - because we had that much more room to experiment and expand. It kept the series from ever falling into a formula. I think this complete series package will be fun for fans to be able to see how the series rolled out from beginning to end, and get a true sense of the total scope of the show." The moment I got this DVD set in it's collectable metal case in my hands I was in superhero heaven.

MORE HEROES! MORE ACTION! Batman is back for a second time teaming up with Green Arrow, Wildcat, Blue Beetle, Speedy and others to protect the world in this thrilling series put together by the unstoppable tag team of Warner Bros. Animation and DC Comics. Everyone knows that by himself the Caped Crusader is more than any villain can handle, but when he has other heroes from across the DC Universe by his side, there is no chance of taking him down. Though still based in Gotham, Batman frequently finds himself outside city limits, facing situations that are both unfamiliar and exhilarating. With formidable foes around every corner, Batman relies on his stealth, resourcefulness, strength and limitless supply of gadgets to bring justice home. "Warner Home Video could not be any happier with the continued success of the Batman series and are ecstatic to be bringing the next installment to DVD," said Amit Desai, WHV Vice President of Family, Animation and Partner Brands Marketing. "Batman: The Brave and the Bold Volume 2 proves that when superheroes band together, there is no way that they can be taken down, which provides fans with an experience like no other." "One of the real pleasures of producing this incarnation of  Batman has been teaming him with a wide variety of characters from across the DC Universe, some more well-known than others, but each with a passionate fanbase," said Sam Register, Executive Vice President, Creative Affairs, Warner Bros. Animation. "Seeing Batman on adventures with Green Arrow, Blue Beetle, Wildcat, Deadman and more has proven to be rewarding for our audience, and we look forward to telling more of these stories." Batman: The Brave and the Bold has been extremely popular on Cartoon Network with its combination of drama and comic relief.  The show is one of the top-rated programs among boys 6-11 and men 18-49. The series, which has a full line of toys being released this year, is executive produced by Sam Register, and the producers are James Tucker and Linda M. Steiner. The voice cast includes Diedrich Bader as Batman, John DiMaggio as Aquaman, James Arnold Taylor as Green Arrow, Will Friedle as Blue Beetle, Corey Burton as Red Tornado and Tom Kenny as Plastic Man.

RUBY-SPEARS SUPERMAN

AN EXCITING CHAPTER IN SUPERMAN'S ANIMATED HISTORY! As a 50th anniversary gift, DC Comics legendary Man of Steel got a brand-new Saturday morning cartoon.Produced by Ruby-Spears Productions. Using such familiar elements as the opening narration of the popular live-action Adventures of Superman TV series and reorchestrated versions of John Williams' memorable themes from the theatrical feature Superman, these rousing adventures were highlighted by classic showdowns between Superman and nemesis Lex Luthor - reinvented as a billionaire industrialist brimming with corporate greed. This 2-Disc, 13-Episode Collection also includes a the end of each installment glimpses into the Superman Family Album. These biographical segments showed the kids at home what it was like to grow up as the most powerful boy in Smallville. Unfortunately, super powers only made awkward childhood and adolescent situations even more awkward, as young Clark was forced to deal with his first day at school, an overnight scouting campout, getting a driver's license, his first date, and more. I was living out of the country at the time that this series was on TV so this is the first time that I have seen this wonderful show. And let me tell you Ruby-Spears Superman was better than I thought it would be. The animation was better than the old Super Friends, and I just loved the Superman Family Album part of the show. Do yourself a favor and order this DVD today. Special Features: - "Corporation Of The Corrupt: The Rise Of Lexcorp" Relive the Decade of Greed, when Americans Grew More Distrustful of Corporate Leadership and Headlines of the Era Were Mirrored in the Connivings of Lex Luthor.
