Not much news has been coming out of the 2010 Chicago Comics & Entertainment Expo, as all the big announcement will likely wait until San Diego. The creators of "Brightest Day" responded to fans who jokingly asked about changes to characters including whether there'd be an explanation for why the Martian Manhunter now has pants (Tomasi teased an upcoming "Ralph Loren tie-in" issue as a joke,) and I believe the only response to an Aquaman query was that he's always had nice hair (which isn't true at all, thinking on the "golden mullet" made infamous by a G4 gaming award. Something more concrete to look forward to? "Vixen will be coming back in a very specific arc" of "Justice League," Robinson said.
Speaking of the Lady Fox, Vixen will receive the "Batman: The Brave and the Bold" treatment in the episode "Gorillas in our Midst!" She's getting a retro redesign that makes her look like a '70s Legionnaire, and will be voiced by Cree Summer, a.k.a. Foxxy Love in Drawn Together. It airs Friday, April 16 at 7:30 p.m. on the Cartoon Network, and CBR provides a video preview...
