    So they say in the article that Warner Bros is divesting from kids programming. But since that's a "spiritual sequel" of sorts to Batman the Animated Series by Matt Reeves and JJ, I doubt very much a lot of kids would watch it. This is nostalgia for people in their thirties. Are kids today really that interested in Batman and Superman? Or the DC universe as a whole?

      Batman is still the second most popular super-hero, in terms of licensed merchandise. Behind only Spider-Man, albeit by quite a bit.
