Warner Bros. and DC Comics announced on Friday that they will be producing three new direct-to-video animated features featuring Batman for release in 2016.

Superman 75th Anniversary Animated Short

During this weekend’s New York Comic-Con 2013, DC Entertainment brought a special Superman 75th Anniversary panel to the Main Stage auditorium. During the panel, which celebrated the Man Of Steel’s importance in comics and pop culture, a special animated short was shown to the audience that featured Superman through the years.

DC has now released the 2-minute animated short online – watch it here below. And head’s up, it might leave you a little teary-eyed.

Put together by Man Of Steel director Zack Snyder and leader of DC’s animated universe movies, Bruce Timm, the short includes the many incarnations of Superman, starting from his comic book origins in Action Comics #1 to the animated series, TV shows, and feature films. Along with the Kryptonian, we get to see some of his adversaries, like Bizarro, and allies, like Lois Lane and Jimmy Olsen.

The short will be included on the Man Of Steel Blu-ray and Blu-ray Edition releases, due out on November 12, 2013.

Batman: The Dark Knight Returns

A few weeks ago Warner Bros. and DC Comics Premiere Movies formerly announced the voice cast for their upcoming two-part direct-to-video animated adaptation of the classic 1986 DC miniseries Batman: The Dark Knight Returns, one of the most popular and influential Batman stories ever created and a cornerstone of the revisionist superhero comic movement that took shape in the late 1980s.

Warner and DC have included a special 13-minute preview of The Dark Knight Returns in the supplementary features on their latest DTV animated offering Superman Vs. The Elite. You can check out the preview here below.

Frank Miller's The Dark Knight Returns

Around the time that the forthcoming The Dark Knight Rises went into pre-production, Warner Bros. and the newly rechristened DC Comics Premiere Movies (formerly DC Universe Animated Original Movies) announced that the next two direct-to-video animated features starring Batman would be based on two of the greatest stories of the Caped Crusader ever told. Late last year Batman: Year One made its debut and was greeted with warm praise from critics and fans who had been apprehensive about how the classic comic book miniseries would translate to animated movie form. The second of the two Batman animated projects is by far the most eagerly-anticipated of the DTV Bat-films, considering that it is an adaptation of what is routinely referred to as the greatest Batman tale of them all.

The Dark Knight Returns, the groundbreaking 1986 miniseries that took Batman in a bold and startling new direction and became one of the hallmarks of modern comic book storytelling, will provide the basis for the next animated Batman movie. The original series took place in the future where an aging Bruce Wayne, now 55 years old, emerges from retirement as Batman to rescue Gotham from the clutches of a rampaging street gang called the Mutants. Soon not only does he find himself battling crazed punks, but also the supposedly rehabilitated Harvey Dent, his oldest archenemy the Joker, and even his longtime ally Superman, now an agent for the U.S. government.
