    Hmm, I as hoping for a grittier animation style similar to the comic but I can live with it having it's own visual identity.

    Wow 'Ryan' from the OC is going to voice Batman/Bruce Wayne. I will be very curious how that turns out. The artwork looks nice though.

    Holy crap! Bryan Cranston does James Gordon. Getting the best actor on television to voice such an iconic character is a huge coup for DC Animation.

    They should release this to theaters like Mask of the Phantasm.

    I don't know about the OC kid, because I've never seen it, but everything else sounds pitch perfect.

    Ben McKenzie's no longer just "the OC kid". He's rocking face on Southland, and rocking it hard.
    This just in: Chris Sprouse has pulled out of Orson Scott Card.

    This is looking great. And Waid's "Tower of Babel" is one of my favorite JLA stories of all time so I'm looking forward to the preview.

    "Dark Knight Returns"? Hope so!

    I don't think he would sound convincing as 25-year-old Bruce Wayne.

    Kinda wish Eliza Dushku was doing Catwoman in the Nolan film rather than this, still should be good.

    Yeah; I honestly couldn't have really cared less before (as the comic is just perfectly realized as is) but now I may just check this out for Cranston alone.

    Katee Sackhoff's participation has raised my interest in this movie.

    Kevin Conroy already voiced a "year one" Bruce in Mask of the Phantasm. He's the best bat-voice overall, but he isn't the right fit for everything. Gotham Knights just sounded awkward, as they should have gone with somebody doing a Bale imitation.

    I think it's appropriate to get someone else for this project.
