'Robot Chicken' Teams with DC Comics to Produce 22-Minute Special
Move over Darth Vader and make room for Superman and his gang for a special even the Dark Lord of the Sith can't handle.
The creators of "Robot Chicken" are teaming up with DC Comics and Warner Bros. Animation to film a 22-minute special that will be released in the fall.
"Having been raised on DC Comics and the Super Friends vs. Legion of Doom, it's exciting to tell a whole Robot Chicken story within this awesome universe," "Robot Chicken" co-creator Seth Green said in a statement.
