On September 28, DC Comics will be releasing a CD featuring the music from several of their cartoons, TV shows and movies. 21 of the 31 tracks are previously unavailable. I love theme music, especially superhero theme music. I'm really looking forward to buying this. Maybe if it sells well enough, they will consider making a volume 2 with all of the music they didn't put on this CD. It is available for pre-order on Amazon.com

Ha, that sounds very fun. I love me a good film soundtrack!
I have some of this music already, but I'm still very interested in this! Commentators on the DC blog mentioned a lot of ommissions; maybe they'll be on a Volume 2 in the future.
Thanks for the news, Erick! I MUST have this!
Quite the lineup. I heard about this a while ago and was intrigued then. Can't wait...
Sweet, thanks for listing all the tracks this may be something I need to pick up. I had heard about this, and am somewhat surprised the BTAS them or the Flash television them did not make the cut. Pleased that a lot of the others from my youth are on there though.
