Freakazoid will make a comeback in the "Teen Titans Go!"
Freakazoid, the beloved superhero of Warner Bros. and Amblin Animation, will return to the screens on Saturday as a guest star in a new episode of Teen Titans Go! premiered on Cartoon Network on Saturday 14 November. The sixth season episode, “Huggbees,” sees the Teen Titans Go! ask the red-clad superhero for help when their nemesis The Brain teams up with The Lobe, Freakazoid's archenemy.
The news was shared on Twitter this week by original voice actor Paul Rugg, who reprized the role. Rugg notes that David Warner (The Lobe), Ed Asner (Sgt. Cosgrove) and announcer Joe Leahy have also returned to the mic for this special episode.
Yes, Freakazoid is making a mini comeback. Last year the guys from Teen Titans Go sent me a script and it was pretty funny! They asked me to add a few things and I did and we recorded it last December. They even got David Warner! And Asner! And Joe Leahy! Ep this weekend!
