With Comic-Con in San Diego kicking off today Warner Bros. Animation took the opportunity to release a little preview for their upcoming show Green Lantern: The Animated Series.

The preview, courtesy of AOL TV, gives us a look at the Bruce Timm-produced show which follows the continuing adventures of Hal Jordan and the Green Lantern Corps as they continue their mission to defend the galaxy, and especially Earth, from a host of threats bent on its destruction.

“Set at the farthest reaches of deep space, Hal must face down an invasion from the Red Lantern Corps. Hal is soon joined by an all-new group of heroes on a mission to protect Guardian Space — and the Green Lantern Corps itself.”

The series stars the voices of Josh Keaton, Michael Clarke Duncan, Richard Green and Robert Englund. It’s set to launch on Cartoon Network next year.
