Looks pretty cool! The Apocalypse episodes of Superman: TAS were usually some of the best.
Of course last time Ed Asner did voice acting, I cried more than I ever had in my entire life. Maybe they'll explore Granny Goodness' past and we'll find out that she misses her dead husband and at the end she'll pin a little Granny Club pin onto Mister Miracle. *sniff*
Hehe, cool!
Very cool. I 'll buy but a pity they didn't get Michel Ironside to reprise Darkseid.

I love their look for evil supergirl. :)
Trailer's gone. While this could be awesome, after all, I love the 4th World stuff (though I hate Superman being able to go toe to toe with Darkseid), I want my Aquaman flick! :D
Guess it's just good that Aquaman is getting some play in the current DC animated flicks (as well as Capt Marvel, thankfully). I think Aquaman was portrayed pretty well in Crisis on Two Earths as he delivered a whoopin' to the Made Men. However, he probably could have ended the fight w/ mind control much quicker :)

Yes, I LOVED that scene! Also the scene where Dina screams in the one guy's ear! :D
