This can't be true. The universe doesn't love us this much.

Edit: Do you know what the worst part is? That this info leaked on March 31, the day before the internet becomes completely useless for 24 hours. So we'll probably be in suspense for another couple of days over whether this is a prank or not.

It actually started yesterday and it'll probably be months, not days until we know anything for sure.

Even if this uses the DCnU version I will be behind this so long as we get more JLU action figures. I would sign up for 10 more years of action figures.

So here's my completely crazy theory based on nothing in particular:

This new JL show is the DCnU-ification of the Timmverse. We know that there's a Flashpoint movie coming. What if, for the first time, they tie it in to the Timmverse? What if they use this to Star Trek the DCAU? It seems like there's a lot less being said about this flick compared to others. Tucker has said he wants to try new things. I know that it's a longshot but it makes sense to me.

I noticed that these rumors seem to be tied to the Justice League Movie in some way, shape or form. Depending with where you go and what you read, the rumors either have Timm coming back to JLU contingent on there being a greenlit Live-Action Justice League Movie; or to pave the way to a Live-Action Justice League Movie.

The problem with all this is that, at the end of the day, the only one who can truly say what's going on, is Bruce Timm. But he's the type of guy who will wait until things move from the planning stage to the production stage. And that could take a while.

Funny thing is that, at the end of the day, he is the guy that... in my humble opinion, should be guiding the actual Justice League Movie. I mean... anyone who's smart enough to think by themselves, should be able to realize that his Batman was as good as Nolan's and his Green Lantern was better than Reynolds. If you can see past the format/medium, then having Bruce Timm helm a Justice League movie makes as much sense as having Joss Whedon (a sci-fi tv guy) helm the Avengers.

Anyways... I'm sure that we'll know more by Comic Con. And I'm sure it will have to do with animation. But boy o' boy... if I worked at Warner, and I needed someone to help me compete with Disney and their slew of Star Wars & Marvel movies... Bruce Timm would be at the top of my list.

OK, let me rephrase that - I know that they get back together, but how?

Well... Let me tell ya 'bout the birds and the bees. And the flowers and the trees. And the moon up above. And a thing called 'Love'. Let me tell ya 'bout the stars in the sky. And a girl and a guy. And a drunk christmas kiss. And a watchtower fling. On a night like this...

Where cartoons go, toys soon follow!

Hopefully if we get them, they're in the same scale/similar style as JLU. Maybe get some newer versions of some old favorites, oh, and I wonder if we'd finally get a Hal!

I imagine there will probably some redesigns done to most of the characters in the cartoon so I'd think any new figures would reflect that.

I wonder if they'll be based more on the New 52 look.

So has this joke been debunked yet? Or do we have to wait until tomorrow?

If it's real news, it is amazing news.

It was published on March 30th...a little early for an April Fool's joke.

Personally, I won't hold my breath.

Hopefully, SDCC will shed some much needed light on this.

AICN is reporting that Timm has NOT completely left WB. No mention of any JLU series either. http://www.aintitcool.com/node/61760
