Cartoon Network Cartoon News Trifecta: Young Justice, Plastic-Man, ThunderCats
? Meanwhile, Nerdist has a clip of one of the Plastic-Man shorts from the DC Nation programming block. I enjoy Young Justice, and again, I’ve heard good things about the CG Green Lantern series, but I honestly think the best part of DC Nation is going to be these shorts, by a wide margin.
? Cartoon Network has announced that ThunderCats will be returning… they just won’t say when. I feel this, along with the total lack of new toys at Toy Fair, is A Very Bad Sign. (Via ToyNewsI)

Robert Bricken is one of the original co-founders of the site formerly known as Topless Robot, and its first editor-in-chief, serving from 2008-12. He brought the site to prominence with “nerd news, humor and self-loathing” as its motto, raising it from total internet obscurity to a readership in the millions, with help from his savage “FAQ” movie reviews and Fan Fiction Fridays. Under his tenure Topless Robot was covered by Gawker, Wired, Defamer, New York magazine, ABC News, and others, and his articles have been praised by Roger Ebert, Avengers actor Clark Gregg, comedian and The Daily Show correspondent John Hodgman, the stars of Mystery Science Theater 3000 and Rifftrax, and others. He is currently the managing editor of io9.com. Despite decades as both an amateur and professional nerd, he continues to be completely unprepared for either the zombie apocalypse or the robot uprising.
