September 5, 2009: More Image from "Superman/Batman Public Enemies"

A co-production of Warner Premiere, DC Comics and Warner Bros. Animation, the full-length animated film will be distributed by Warner Home Video on September 29, 2009.

In the film, United States President Lex Luthor uses the oncoming trajectory of a Kryptonite asteroid to frame Superman and declare a $1 billion bounty on the heads of the Man of Steel and his "partner in crime," Batman. Heroes and villains alike launch a relentless pursuit of Superman and Batman, who must unite - and recruit help - to stave off the action-packed onslaught, stop the asteroid, and uncover Luthor-s devious plot to take command of far more than North America.

Superman/Batman: Public Enemies is based on the popular Jeph Loeb/Ed McGuinness comic series/graphic novel. Animation legend Bruce Timm (Superman Doomsday, Green Lantern) is executive producer. Michael Goguen (Justice League: The New Frontier) is supervising producer. Sam Liu (The Batman) is directing a script written by Stan Berkowitz (Justice League: The New Frontier).

Ricardo Chavira (Desperate Housewives) provides the voice of Major Force. Kevin Conroy (Batman) and Tim Daly (Superman) reprise their longtime series roles in Superman/Batman: Public Enemies. From out of the shadows emerge two ominous figures - super villains Mongul and Solomon Grundy - to add another dimension to the epic battles.
