I like Steven Blum, wait Scarecrow? Why the hell is there a Scarecrow? There's one in Batman and Ghost Rider has one too but Spider-man? Ugh, ah why do I care I probably won't watch it anyways.

The Terror of Death · 07-20-2007, 08:57 PM

With so many characters this show better be 26 episodes. 13 episode seasons just dont cut it imo.

*DrSpengler* · 07-20-2007, 08:57 PM

Steve Blum as Mysterio? That could work.
Phil Lamarr as Robbie seems like a no-brainer. He's, like, the "go to black guy" in animation, these days.
John DiMaggio is gonna rawk as Rhino. Love that guy's voice.
I wonder what kinda voice Jeff Bennet is gonna do for Vulture? If it's the young Vulture I'm hoping for something like Brooklyn from Gargoyles.
Jim Cummings as Kraven is gonna be super duper cheesy. I love Cummings' voice, don't get me wrong, but it alswyassounds sooooo cartoony and goofy.
Peter MacNicol as Doctor Octopus? Like, Ghostbusters II Janosz Peter MacNicol? I don't know what to think.

*Brodie* · 07-20-2007, 11:56 PM

Regarding the Scarecrow comment, yeah, SPider-Man has one. But Im pretty sure its the same one as Ghost Rider.

Side thing:

Concept stuff...

Not crazy about Pete's hair.

**GK Punk** · 07-21-2007, 12:06 AM

Peter looks kinda like Ultimate Peter Parker.

*ZariusTwo* · 07-21-2007, 12:17 AM

MAD MURDOCH IS THE GOBLIN?

This is f*cking awesome.

I think 4Kids spoiled us with 26 TMNT episodes a season, and now we can't stand the dreaded (and cheap) 13 eps... But it WILL be 13, with multiple reruns over and over until we see the entire season.

Jim Cummings... I dunno... he's always kinda off in a more serious role. You can tell when he's having fun on something really wacky... like Darkwing Duck and Don Karnage. He's my top fave VA...

John Dimaggio... I would KILL to hear Rhino say "Bite my Shiney metal Ass!"

Dee Bradley Baker as the Lizard... somehow I can only think of his Aussie Numba 4 voice, his effeminant Fairly Oddparents background character voice, and his German Klaus voice.... But I can see up and coming VA talent when I see it. he's really making himself know the last few years.

That concept art isn't final, it was done by some guy who tried out for the job. The gig ended up going to someone else.

*Spike Spiegel* · 07-21-2007, 09:29 AM

That concept art looks like a cross betwenn The Batman, Teen Titans, and Spider-Man Unlimited.

Hope the series is as good as it looks...I'm interested to see if they handle Venom as well as they they did in the '94 show.

There is no animation visuals that are similer to Unlimited

You really need to stop obsessing over that peice of crap.

I couldn't agree more. After seeing MacNicol on "Numbers" and "24", I'd like to see him in that role. It'd also be nice to hear Paul Eiding's Grandpa Max voice from Ben Parker.
Too bad I'm not all enthused from the art and the Kids WB! lineup having no originality in their lineup as well.

But "The Batman" has never used him, so apparently they let this series have him instead. I probably won't be watching either of them as well.

*ZariusTwo* · 07-21-2007, 12:45 PM

Why not?

The fourth season of The Batman was almost ten times superior to the first season of Justice Leauge AND JLU combined (by that I don't mean what you get on the JLU DVD), and Spider-Man is being handled by Greg Wiesman

*Dr. Doom* · 07-21-2007, 12:55 PM

That's a rather bold claim for a show that was SUPPOSED to be an awful reinvention of the property in order to tell toys.

*ZariusTwo* · 07-21-2007, 01:00 PM

The second and fourth seasons are genuinely superb and showing of the show's quality and potential. The toy commercial aspect was and is far from no longer a vocal point (as it ruined the first and third seasons), but at least the writing disguised it well enough when it could.

And it's not so much of a "bold" claim when half the DCAU writing team took over the show once Duane Capizzi left to write s*it on a sandwich.

The guy doing it is Cheeks from Deviant Art. He was finally able to tell people he got it.

PS, its neat to see Zarius all for The Batman in comparison to how he was when it first came out.

*DrSpengler* · 07-21-2007, 02:37 PM

Well, according to Vicious, who is a close friend of Greg Weisman's and a big figure in the Gargoyle's fan community, that Wikipedia list is not to be trusted.

Ah well.

I was defending the second season when the third made me doubt they could keep it up, so it's not new.

Heck, you ask me to say Teen Titans was awesome, and it'll also depend on certain seasons. Three and five are not my favourate out of them either.
