La verdad, todavia no termino de entender bien que viene a ser esto.
Es como un programa de TV sobre DC, no ? -
Al principio entendí que era un programa de tipo "refrito", una especie de "Zapping" pero con todas las series de los personajes de DC, desde SuperPowers hasta ahora... pero parece que es algo mas... como una especie de magazine. Raro.

Que buena noticia!! Superman Batman y Green Lantern en el cine, serie de tv de Wonder Woman, Green Lantern Animated Young Justice y el final de Batman the Brave and the Bold y ahora esto!
The multimedia might of DC Entertainment earned a vote of confidence from one of its most frequent Warner Bros. family partners today as the up front for kids cable giant Cartoon Network revealed a new strategic partnership between DC and CN with a familiar name to comic fans.
As revealed in Turner Broadcasting's official press release about the annual up front which reveals the slate of Cartoon Network's shows for 2012, a brand-new DC Nation block of programming will occupy major space in the channel's plans for 2012.
Described as "a multi-platform, branded block of original programming," DC Nation will be seen primarily on air starting next year with promises of exclusive online content as well. “DC Nation on Cartoon Network will be the first-ever dedicated broadcast destination to showcase the depth and breadth of the DC Universe,” DCE President Diane Nelson said in the release. “We and our partners at WBTV are thrilled that fans will be able to immerse themselves in DC’s phenomenal stories, experience a wide spectrum of amazing characters and stay up-to-date on the latest happenings of the world’s greatest superheroes and their creators, both on-air and online.”
While there were no program specifics at this point in time for the DC Nation block itself, however plenty of news hit that would be of interest to comic fans. The network officially confirmed debuts for animated series fans have been aware of for a while now including "Green Lantern: The Animated Series" – a CGI show hitting on the heels of the incoming Warner Bros. movie – as well as the anime relaunch of '80s iconic toon "ThunderCats."
Furthermore, Cartoon Network executives confirmed new season orders for existing comic shows including "Batman: The Brave & The Bold" and "Young Justice" as well as declaring more expansion plans for the "Ben 10" franchise created by comic collective Man of Action (the current "Ultimate Alien" series earns a new season while another iteration of the show, still unnamed, is in the works).
Even more offbeat sections of the comics world got in on the action as plans for more "MAD" animated shorts based on the comics humor magazine were announced as well as the official release of cartoonist Ben Jones' "The Problem Solverz."

Si, pero dice "DC Nation: A multi-platform, branded block of original programming" y "one powerful on-air block on Cartoon Network with exclusive online content."
Si es un programa aparte, que contenido nuevo va a tener? El contenido online me imagino que son juegos para la web y/o los celulares, como hacen con Ben 10. -
Pero me parece que tb decian que hablarian de actualidad tb del comic, asique si la idea es un programa que tire info y luego repiten un par de shows de DC pues ya me alegra la enorme difución que va a tener DC en el 2012. Es un buen momento para reactivar los Showcase y que los pasen x ahí!
- 2 cosas veo acá.. Young Justice Invasion?? copado, un desprendimiento del show tipo maxiserie!DC Nación incluirá programas como Green Lantern: The Animated Series y Young Justice: Invasion, una serie de 10 episodios que gira en torno a los Young Justice. No puedo decir mucho al respecto, dice Johns, pero contará con una gran cantidad de nuevos personajes.
La asociación, que también involucra a las empresas corporativas de Warner Bros. Animation, mostrará 75 años de historia: Vamos a bucear lo más profundamente posible en el Universo DC, con personajes que nunca esperaban salir al aire. Johns dice, dando a entender que Blue Beetle está bajo consideración.y tb dicen que van a darle espacio a otros heroes de la historia de DC asique esto no se puede limitar solo a las series existentes!
