First, they're making a movie out of The Sparrow, one of my favorite novels of all time (which in no way ensures a good movie, of course)!
And, the rumors about the Justice League cartoon universe expanding are true. From Dwayne McDuffie's site:
"The heroes of the Justice League return in August with a new series, Justice League Unlimited, which incorporates a bold new look and a much larger scope. Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman and Green Lantern continue to lead the universe’s most powerful superheroes in an effort to stop criminal plots and alien threats that endanger the universe. Now, in Justice League Unlimited, they are joined by an even greater collection of heroes some of whom are well-known, like Supergirl, Green Arrow and the Atom, as well as some that are less familiar, like Booster Gold, Hawk & Dove, Elongated Man, The Question, Mister Miracle, Big Barda and Zatanna."
The image also shows Captain Atom, Orion, Aquaman (we've already seen the latter two in the DC Tooniverse before, of course), and The Demon (who we've seen but whose cartoon incarnation doesn't seem to really fit with the League).
As long as they keep the Hawkgirl/John Stewart plotline alive, I'm fine with that.
