I seriously can’t stop laughing. Back in December 2010, late night host, Conan O’Brien got a cool tour at Warner Bros. Animation. During his visit, he had the honor of being made into an animated superhero by the very talented Bruce Timm. The end result was a superhero by the name of “The Flaming C“. Whats really awesome is that WB Animation took this silly idea and actually put The Flaming C into an appearance on Cartoon Network’s ‘Young Justice’. Originally, the Flaming C made his debut in January, but it was mostly just dialogue. Finally, we get to see the Flaming C in action. Aired earlier this week, Conan premiere a new animated clip of the Flaming C tries to save a bus full of children that’s is about to fall of a bridge. During the ordeal, he is met by Super Boy who seems to be a complete amateur compared to the Flaming C. While Super Boy struggles to pull the bus to safety, the Flaming C is able to lift the whole bridge with ONLY ONE HAND (pictured above)! I hope that this running gag continues because I would love to see The Flaming C go toe-to-toe with the “Man of Steel and the “Dark Knight”.
Hit the jump to check out the video of “The Flaming C” in action!
I guess moving to TBS and filming on the Warner Bros. Studio’s lot has it’s perks for late night host, Conan O’Brien. It looks like Coco’s studio is very close to the Warner Bros. Animation because in a new segment in last night show called “Conan Gets Animated”, Coco sits down with Warner Bros. Animation’s creative director Peter Girardi (referred by Conan as the “Head of Warner Bros. Animation” and than later retitled to “works here”) to discuss the lesser known and lesser awesome heroes of the DC Universe. Later, Conan is granted a wish to have himself “animated” as a superhero by Warner Bros. Animation. Helping him with his request is the amazing and talented, Bruce Timm (Batman, Superman, etc.). Sadly Bruce Timm is referred to as an “animator” when he is pretty much a head character designer, executive producer, and golden child at WBA. With a mad dose of Coco’s witty humor and out of control requests, Bruce Timm designs the rough sketch of a Conan superhero including the letter C in flames with a thunder bolt and the star of David as the logo. LMAO!
A recently aired episode of the Tonight Show features Conan O’Brien making an appearance at LA based anime dubbing studio, Bang Zoom and tries his hand at voice acting for Ghost in the Shell. Hilarity ensues.
