 Batman, Superman, the Legion, and Spider-Man could all be teaming up. CW, the network that already airs "The Batman" and "Superman and the Legion of Super-Heroes," picked up Sony's new animated series "The Amazing Spider-Man."
The show will debut in early 2008 as part of the CW's Kids' WB Saturday morning block.
The project was originally planned as a direct-to-video feature about Peter Parker's junior year of high school as he learns to control his new powers. The series will have the same setting, but will allow for more stories and the introduction of more classic Spidey characters.
