WOLVERINE, HULK and BATMAN - newsbits for October 15th

 It's supposed to hit in January, redhairs99.  The upcoming straight to dvd "Hulk vs Thor" and "Hulk vs Wolverine" animations lead into it (having not seen them, I'm not sure how).  

Wolverine and the X-Men has REALLY impressed me and that last episode was excellent. It's like "Hell yeah I wanna watch Nightcrawler swordfight pirates led by Spiral!" And cameos by Squidboy and what I think might have been Pixie kind of sealed the deal.

Chances are that we will see this cartoon in the States, but probably not til the season is nearly over in Canada, since in Canada, their fall season starts in the spring, so we get episodes usually 3-5 months later after they're viewed up North.  So probably expect the first airing of WOLVERINE AND THE X-MEN if picked up (which will be most likely) sometime during the first quarter of 2009.

It looks cool from the previews, but the trend of singling out Wolverine and making him the focus of the X-men always set wrong with me.  Wolverine is a cool character, but so are the other X-men.  By focusing so much on him in the movies and now the cartoon, just really diminishes the rest of the X-men in my opinion.

What if Warner made Justice League, Batman and the Justice League based on the success of the Batman films?

Plus that it's out of character for Wolverine to lead anything except himself.

That all said, I'm sure I'll watch & like it when it hits the states, but it still bothers me.
