In Young Justice: Outsiders the teenage Super Heroes of the DC Universe come of age in an animated world of super-powers, Super-Villains and super secrets.

Titans is a dramatic, live-action adventure series that will explore and celebrate one of the most popular comic book teams ever.
Swamp Thing
Desribed as: When CDC researcher Abby Arcane returns to her childhood home of Houma, Louisiana, in order to investigate a deadly swamp-born virus, she develops a surprising bond with scientist Alec Holland — only to have him tragically taken from her. But as powerful forces descend on Houma, intent on exploiting the swamp’s mysterious properties for their own purposes, Abby will discover that the swamp holds mystical secrets, both horrifying and wondrous — and the potential love of her life may not be dead after all.
Mark Verheiden (Battlestar Galactica) and Gary Dauberman (IT) are writers, with producers including Wan, Mark Verheiden, Gary Dauberman, and Michael Clear.
Swamp Thing is planned for a 2019 launch
