One of the things that popped up prior to the lights going down in the theater when I saw Green Lantern on Friday was a sneak peek for the new Green Lantern: The Animated Series coming out this year from Cartoon Network. The new CG show is set to premiere on September 5th on the Cartoon Network as part of the growing series of plans to bring more DC Entertainment properties to one of Warner’s owned channels. The new show is being produced by DC Universe animated man about town Bruce Timm.

“The show will be arcs and Hal Jordan will be the main character. Other characters that have been confirmed to be included are Kilowog, the Guardians of the Universe, Carol Ferris, Salaak, Sayd, Saint Walker, and Zilius Zox. The main antagonists of the show will be the Red Lantern Corps, led by the villain Atrocitus, and the Manhunters. It will not be an origin story. The first season of the show will have 26 episodes, thirteen of which have already been planned, and five of which have already been recorded.”
