NEW YORK -- Cartoon Network is planning a Green Lantern animated series.

Phil Kent, chairman and CEO of Time Warner's Turner networks unit, showed a slide with some of Cartoon Network's original programming here Thursday at TW's investor day.

It included the title "Green Lantern: The Animated Series."

Warner Bros. chairman and CEO Barry Meyer later in the day mentioned this as an example of increasing collaboration and coordination between his unit and Turner. He said the Cartoon Network show is based on the DC Comics character and will follow some time after Warner's "Green Lantern" movie, scheduled for a June 17, 2011 release.

Here's hoping they don't use the same sort of zany art style that was used for Teen Titans.

Let's hope it's more in the vein of Green Lantern: First Flight than anything else, honestly. They could screw it up in a lot of ways, but I'd like to hope it's more along the lines of JLU or Brave and the Bold instead of Teen Titans. Get Bruce Timm in on it.

I enjoyed Teen Titans, but loathe Batman: BatB. I think I'm in the minority.
