Batman and Superman: Battle of the Super Sons - Official Trailer

[Kon-El-Prime]

So much fun animated stuff for DC fans! I’m legit excited for the LoSH series on HBO.

[Vroom]

In the scene where Jon and Damian are about to face-off against the League, I noticed two things:

The Cassandra Sandsmark Wonder Girl was wearing her brown jacket.

AFAIK offhand, Cass hasn’t yet worn that in animation. “Its a nice coat.”

Beast Boy! Its about time Gar joined the League!

@Kon-El-Prime

I’m legit excited for the LoSH series on HBO.

Why isn’t that ringing a bell with me? Is it something that was recently announced?
