Alright, I'm adding some shows to the Toonami Board FAQ... and I was wondering... could y'all give me some insight on these?

I know there was some sort of Gotham Girls and Lobo web-episodes... were these official?

Also, anyone care to give me a short run through of the shows pre-B:TAS? I believe I have the '90s and beyond well covered. Not just the animated stuff. Currently I've added the JLA pilot, the Batman movies, and The Flash television series (any more info on that would be greatly appreciated). I'm going to add Wonder Woman, Smallville, Lois and Clark...

But there are some things I'm just general ignorant about. Superboy, some TV-Special that was like a Superhero Roast or something, etc. Please, just a crash course in DC non-comics stuff.

Some information about them, as well as the live-action JLA pilot, can be found Here (http://www2.bitstream.net/~myke4/jla/jlafaq09.html)

There was the 60s' Batman, the 50s' Superman, and The SNL Death of Superman Parody. If you want future series then there is always Krypto and the upcoming Batman tv series.

Can I just ask why Toonami would want anything to do with live action material and isn't the entertainment board a better place for this topic since it also involves live action material????

Well, many shows in the "Related shows" section are there because they're... well, related. Many have no chance of showing up, like old school Cyborg 009 or Kikaider.

I ask this here because mainly I'm looking for info on the various animated versions pre-'90s, full-names, where it aired, etc. Just a little snippet.

I can probably BS info on the live-action ones.

I could probably include SNL as a show, but that would make me include every show that has ever parodied He-Man, Transformers, Superman, etc.

Wow, I don't normally see you post in non-Toonami sub-forums.

All the show page divisions on World's Finest (http://wf.toonzone.net/main.php) have short show intros and crap...not sure if that's what you're looking for or not though...

The Gotham Girls and Lobo pages are there too, although to get to them you have to refresh the page for it to show up (or just go to this (http://wf.toonzone.net/WF/menuside/all.php) page).

The very first show in that live action Flash series was about zombies or 'mutated monsters', one or the other.

I remember the scene where he got trapped in some glass bubble about to be turned into whatever the antagonists were crystal clear.

That Superman cartoon where he fights some mad scientist in the 30s or 40s should be mentioned. You know, the big laser beam fires at him, and he bashes at it with a left and right and a left and right before he gets to the laser and smashes it.
