I see the WB doing both satire and "cashing in" at the same time. They're jumping on the superhero bandwagon, now that The Incredibles has done so well. We have the Teen Titans, Justice League, Batman and Superman animated series, and Batman Beyond (which if you look, is much the style of this new Loonatics series) as well as myriad others.

So yeah, it's poking fun, and it's also just another ploy to appease the short-attention mentality we see in so many kids today... that's developed over the last decade... with the latest fad.

I plan to give the show a try, see if they're really funny or not. Maybe after 3 or 4 episodes, I'll be able to make a truely informed opinion.
