Last night was the live chat with Warner Home Video about their DVD plans for TV and animation. Unfortunately, I missed the chat, but I read the transcript earlier this evening and as far as DC Heroes go, here's what I've discovered.
1: Sales of the live action Superboy TV series were not enough to continue with the seasons. But they said, and I quote,"Look for the animated Adventures of Superboy....coming in the future." So for those who like the Filmation Superboy series, you may finally be getting your wish.
2: A question was asked if the original Batman cartoon from 1968 by Filmation would come out as well as seeing the Filmation Superman series finish up on DVD. And thanks were given for the continued releases of the SuperFriends. Warner's reply:
"A new SuperFriends DVD set will be out later this year. If there is more DC Animated content....we'll put it out!"
This translates to me as hope we will see the remaining Batman and Superman toons by Filmation as well as the remaining SuperFriends series eventually get released on DVD.
Now for the bad news. Still no plans for Shazam. I hope the live and animated series of Shazam don't have the same legal problems as the live action Batman TV series. And no plans for the Filmation Tarzan: Lord of the Jungle series. Now that royally sucks!!!
But that's the news.
Cheers.
