Our friends at Warner Bros. Animation were kind enough to send us some images from this weekend’s big installments of The Batman and Legion of Super Heroes, part of the Kids’ WB! Lineup on The CW Network. Both shows wrap up their two-part season premieres on Saturday, Sept. 29, starting with the Legion episode ‘The Man From the Edge of Tomorrow ‘ at 11 a.m. (ET/PT), followed by the ‘The Batman/Superman Story’ at 11:30.
In Saturday’s Legion of Super Heroes episode, the crime-fighting syndicate
has returned from the 41st century with Kell-El, a genetically-enhanced
Superman clone, to find that Imperiex, the destroyer of galaxies, has reached the
31st century first and has unleashed all of the Legion’s greatest enemies. To
restore order and combat this near-invincible foe, the Legion will once
again turn to the past for help in the form of an older, more mature
Superman with a far better grasp of his powers.
The finale of The Batman‘s ‘Batman/Superman Story’ finds Superman under the control of Lex Luthor, courtesy of Poison Ivy’s hypnotic spores. Batman and Robin must free Superman from his trance and halt Luthor’s diabolical plan.
New episodes of both series will air on Oct. 6 and Oct.13. To see the latest pics, go to www.animationmagazine.net/batman_legion.html
