A new young breed of super-heroes comes to life on Cartoon Network as famed Robin leads fellow young teens Cyborg, Beast Boy, Starfire and Raven in the all-new high-adventure series Teen Titans. Slated to debut on Cartoon Network on Saturday, July 19, at 9 p.m. (ET, PT), this action-packed half-hour animated series is being produced by Warner Bros. Animation under the guidance of Emmy Award-winner Glen Murakami.

Teen Titans features five teen super-heroes each with special powers. Led by Robin, this group unites to form a force to protect their teeming, sun-baked city from a new generation of villains while coping with the challenges of adolescence. When they work together as a team, their powers are formidable. As super-heroes, the Teen Titans are fully-developed. But they struggle with the same challenges every teen would - things like sibling rivalry, taking responsibility, jealousy and fitting in with the group.

The Teen Titans live together in a high-tech command center that is also the ultimate hangout. They play video games, squabble and leave dirty dishes around. They get on each other's nerves� a lot. But ultimately the Teen Titans have to put their super-insecurities and super-gripes aside and save the world from a next generation of bad guys.

Teen Titans is based on the popular DC Comics comic book characters and will air in 2004 on Kids' WB!

"With Teen Titans, we wanted to create a new take on the animated super-hero series. Teen Titans will be more about what the characters are experiencing and feeling right now, as opposed to being wrapped up in backstory," said Glen Murakami, producer of Teen Titans. "These super-heroes don't have alter egos or secret identities. The show is lighthearted and fun, with new villains, a bold look and exciting action sequences. We think it will have broad appeal - not just to fans of the comic books but also to kids who don't know who the Teen Titans are."

"Cartoon Network has experienced great success with Justice League, so we know we have a loyal audience ready to embrace this exciting new show," said Jim Samples, General Manager and Executive Vice President, Cartoon Network. "These DC Comics characters have incredible powers, but struggle with how to use them. Teen Titans will mesh perfectly with our other action-adventure programming and thrill our viewers."

"We are very excited about bringing Teen Titans to life with stunning animation," said Sander Schwartz, President, Warner Bros. Animation. "The opportunity to explore Robin, the classic sidekick of Batman, as well as the other teenage characters of the DC Universe provides a great setting for action-adventure tales for a new generation."

"The New Teen Titans was a groundbreaking comic book as Marv Wolfman and George P�rez delved into the extraordinary challenges of living as a super-hero teenager," said Paul Levitz, DC Comics President and Publisher. "With the animated series being brought to life by Glen Murakami's great team, we look forward to new worlds of creative magic."
