Which characters (other than Superman and Batman) should get a cartoon?

[king81992]

Wonder Woman is long overdue for a cartoon.

Maybe a cartoon about an original team that doesn't exist in the comics.

OP Question -

My Top Ten List (in no particular order)

Vixen
Justice League Dark
Red Hood and the Outlaws
Zatanna
Dr. Fate (various people could wear the helmet)
Powergirl
John Stewart
Dr. Light (Kimiyo Hoshi)
Blue Beetle
Bumblebee

Bonus (I thought of these two right after I made the initial list)

Steel
Bronze Tiger

[Dr. Poison]

Wonder Woman
Justice Society

Wonder Woman

Damn, yeah, I forgot Wondy isn't getting a show. She needs and certainly deserves a show.

[j9ac9k]

My top 2 choices already got cartoons, but they didn't last long:
-- GREEN LANTERN: great show, deserved more seasons. Damn the toy sales.
-- Legion of Super-Heroes: It was okay, but I wasn't crazy about the execution and relied too much on Superboy for me.

- NEW GODS series could be pretty epic if it were created to epic as opposed to the usual superhero fare.
- Now that we're seeing more long-form storytelling in animation, I think Robinson's Starman would be great.

[D.Z]

Something that can last long.

[WonderScott]

Wonder Woman
Batwoman and Flamebird
Flash
Secret Six
Birds of Prey

As has been said, many times, Wonder Woman is overdue (and then some) for her own animated series. Something in the style of Legend of Korra would be right up he alley.

Super Sons was tailor made to be animated, and its a real head scratcher that the suits at WB haven't done anything with it.

Shazam is a great one too, exploring the wonder of a group of foster siblings suddenly gaining super powers.

Flash... I know a lot of people want one of them to get one, but having a series that's getting close to being a decade old on television right now, I'd at least wait until that's over with.

The Robins: a series featuring the various former and current Robins, how they interact with one another, their differences, etc. And, I guess, Batman would be a featured character.

Booster Gold and Blue Beetle. Multiverse shenanigans.

Maybe it would be too close to Batman for some, but a Robin series feels like it would be an obvious hit.

When you look at what the most popular animated properties are right now you see a very common theme. They are about a young, usually teenage, hero that is at the beginning of their hero's journey and over the course of the series you see them grow and develop with all the challenges that comes with that. From Avatar, the current Invincible series that is popular, the young adult novel series, and obviously the countless number of anime/manga related properties that follow this exact setup. People enjoy this type of series. Even the Batman Beyond series was basically like this. Robin is the most well known teenage superhero in the world and it is basically set up to be a shounen-like action animated series. Where you start with him and Batman and slowly expand his circle of influence to include other Gotham characters to even the Titans.

But I get WB/DC's thought process. To them they would rather just invest in another Batman project than a Robin one even though I think Robin works better as the focus in this kind of series. Since most people don't really want Bruce's Batman to be a teen and prefer him as a capable adult already in his adaptations.

[Dr. Skeleton]

I agree, Flash should've gotten a cartoon a long time ago. He's got a great rouges gallery and supporting cast. It's a crime this has never happened.

Justice Society

That would be interesting. Especially to introduce younger viewers to the team and their history.

[Shimbo]

Wonder Woman.

Seriously, I'm so ready to type WWTAS but, alas, as much as DC hypes this Trinity farce, she was the only one conspicuously absent from the recent announcement of new Bats and Supes animated series.

Birds of Prey!

Another one that could be great. Start with the classic Dixon set up and work their way up to Simone's stuff. So just Dinah and Babs to start, maybe alluding to Babs and Power Girl's beef.

Vixen

Supermodel extraordinaire walking all the runways at night and proudly saving the day! Filled with weird animal and sci-fi stuff, glamor, Afrofuturism, mysticism, flings with international hotties from all over, and establishing a robust rogue's gallery that seeks to end Mari McCabe's bloodline descended from Anansi. Introduce the Global Guardians in later seasons.

Dial H for Superhero would be seen as a Ben 10 ripoff.
