DC Comics swoops in and saves the XBLM

The entire Super Friends crew is coming to an Xbox Live Marketplace near you ... that is if you live in the States. Microsoft and DC Comics have partnered to launch a new DC Comics network onto the XBLM, allowing gamers to purchase their favorite DC Comics based television shows. So far, they've committed to releasing episodes of Batman: The Animated Series, Batman Beyond, Superman: The Fleischer Cartoons, Super Friends, The Adventures of Batman and Aquaman as well as DC based 360 theme and gamer picture downloads. Exciting stuff, especially when you've had nothing but Dark Knight on the mind for the past few months.

That's excellent news indeed. Might have to pick up some of them.. Still would love to have a Season Purchase option, though.

Do they have Justice League and/or Justice League Unlimited there already?

Just asking because it seems kind of funny to have the Justice League version up as the main graphic for the store but no Justice League content.

Nice! I already have the Batman theme and was really impressed with the artwork. I'm all about getting some more DC content, probably buy Batman:TAS on DVD though so I can truly own it.

I'm buying some Superfriends, if only to show the wife. She'll hate it!

The Fleischer chartoons?
As in the cartoons that are public domain and legally free for download or viewing from hundreds of places online?
Eh...
