Looks like Cartoon Network is ordering another commercial...I mean cartoon based on an existing toy line.  Variety has reported that the network has ordered 26 episodes of "Marvel Super Hero Squad" set to premiere late 2009.

Who is set to be in it?  Pretty much everyone.  The toy line has included such heroes as Wolverine, Hulk, Captain America, Silver Surfer and Iron Man.  The voices inlude Tom Kenny ("SpongeBob Squarepants), Steve Blum ("Wolverine And The X-Men") and Charlie Adler ("Transformers").  It seems the show will be added to the line up that includes "Batman: The Brave And The Bold" and "Star Wars: The Clone Wars."

No word on whether the show will be completed geared towards the younger crowd.  You would think so based on their appearance.  I would love to see it more in the style of Chris Giarrusso's "Mini Marvels."
