One of the greatest upcoming voice-over artists in the animation industry is the multi-talented, wide-ranged Zeno Robinson. Not only does Zeno voice Victor Stone aka Cyborg in Young Justice: Outsiders, but he also portrays an array of various characters ranging from incredibly hilarious to spine-chillingly terrifying. The variety of fantastic roles he’s done so far is nothing short of sensational. Today, we look at some of Zeno Robinson’s most memorable roles outside of Young Justice: Outsiders.

1. Big City Greens - Starting out with a more comedic, light-hearted series, Big City Greens centers around the adventures of Cricket Green and his family moving from the country to the big city. Over the duration of the show, Cricket is able to strike up many friendships with the city’s citizens despite his idealistic, country-boy nature. One of the main characters he befriends is Remy, a socially awkward, but incredibly endearing kid around the same age of Cricket voiced by Zeno himself. Zeno is able to bring a goofy, lovable energy to the character and round out the cast of this upbeat animated series that both children and adults can fall in love with.
2. Ben 10: Alien Force/Ben 10: Ultimate Alien - The Cartoon Network series about a young man who can change into various unique aliens with the help of a special device called the Omnitrix, Zeno is able to lend his many talents to this series as Alan Albright. Starting out as a shy, inexperienced kid, Alan was able to grow into his newfound abilities which include the control of the element of fire as a member of the hair-raising Heatblast species. With a character that can be compared to that of a superhero, Zeno masterfully portrays both sides of being a young, unassuming human being and an extraterrestrial being with magnificent powers. A wonderfully well-made series with elements of the superhero and science fiction genres sprinkled in, the Ben 10 franchise is so creative and fast-paced that it can invest anyone with the unique characters and captivating stories.
3. My Hero Academia - A popular anime/manga about the human race with superpowers manifesting inside them called “quirks”, My Hero Academia is another imaginative, popular franchise that Zeno is a part of. Zeno voices two very interesting characters in the franchise, Deidoro Sakaki and Hawks. Sakaki is a villainous character who has the “quirk” to cause anyone who approaches him to lose their sense of balance and coordination. Hawks is a more heroic character with the “quirk” of “Fierce Wings", which allows him to control the feathers of gigantic wings that grow out of his back with his mind. A pleaser for both fans of the superhero genre and of anime culture, My Hero Academia is perfect for those who wish to find something that can enthrall them with an assembly of distinctive characters, rich, fascinating story arcs, and action sequences that can get nearly anyone’s blood running.
4. LEGO Star Wars: All-Stars - One of the most well-known science fiction franchises of all-time, LEGO Star Wars: All-Stars is an animated series on Disney XD that features LEGO versions of the many heroes and villains in the Star Wars galaxy. Zeno lends his voice to the show as a young Lando Calrissian, a charismatic rebel who is an old friend and ally to the roguish smuggler, Han Solo. Zeno brings a youthful, but witty and charming energy to his portrayal of Lando heavily reminiscent of Donald Glover’s take on the character’s early days in Solo: A Star Wars Story. Another remarkable addition to the Star Wars universe, LEGO Star Wars: All-Stars is comical, adventure-heavy, and an all-around thrill-ride for both casual viewers and die-hard fans of the iconic science fiction phenomenon.

Happy Whelmed Wednesday, everyone! We know that the current times haven’t been easy, and we wish nothing but good health and safety to all of our readers. We’ll get through this by social distancing together: symbiosi. To lighten things up, this past weekend, Michael Greenway held a Young Justice trivia night, featuring some very familiar faces. Did you guys attend the stream that went down this past Saturday? If you didn’t, no worries, we’ll catch you up on everything that happened!

Organized by Michael Greenway (@DarkSuperboyDA), the Trivia Night was a rousing success, featuring appearances by Zeno Robinson (Cyborg), Cameron Bowen (Tim Drake), Eric Lopez (Blue Beetle), Neal Powell (from Whelmed: The YJ Files), and our very own Ariel Horn. Michael led the contestants through questions from a variety of categories, including General Knowledge, Video Games, and Young Justice itself. The quiz was challenging, but the contestants took all the questions in stride with a great sense of humor. Even when they didn’t know the answers, they came up with their own creative spins that left everyone laughing.

In addition to Michael’s questions, there was plenty of entertainment happening in the live chat as well! Zehra Fazal (voice of Halo and several others) provided some stellar commentary and supplementary questions for the contestants. Thomas Dreyfuss (@Thomas_Dreyfuss) hopped in the chat midway as well, able to answer questions and provide general knowledge that was more on the unknown side. Even Rich Howard (from Whelmed: The YJ Files) popped in to say hello! Plenty of fans chimed in with support for the cast, crew and the show, and it was overall a wonderful experience.

At the end of the game, Neal Powell ended up the champion of the trivia night, which was a surprise to no one. However, Emily Buza’s (from Whelmed: the Young Justice Files) score beat all the contestants, playing from the sidelines. We expected nothing less from the Whelmed team!

To catch all of the madness and hilarity that went on in the game, check out the stream below:

Michael is currently planning a second round to take place in the near future, potentially featuring an all-girls night. We, for one, look very forward to it.

The co-creators of Young Justice, Greg Weisman and Brandon Vietti, are more than just creative masterminds; they’re insightful, perceptive visionaries who can easily create an array of fantastic stories and well-rounded characters. However, the duo’s talents aren’t solely reserved for just the expanded DC universe. Weisman and Vietti have had the chance to develop amazing properties throughout the years that have all earned a special place in many fan’s hearts. Today, we break down some of the most memorable projects that Weisman and Vietti have worked on in the past. 

The Spectacular Spider-Man: Living on the edge, fighting crime, and spinning webs! This phenomenal animated series focusing on one of Marvel’s most iconic heroes, Spider-Man, is highly considered to be one of the most popular properties involving our friendly neighborhood web-slinger. The easy to follow plotlines, extremely humorous jokes, and fast-paced action makes this Spider-Man series unforgettable. While the series unfortunately ended in 2009, it continues to be held in such a high regard in many Spider-Fans’ eyes. 

Lego DC Comics Super Heroes: Justice League vs. Bizarro League: Our favorite DC superheroes are now fighting off evil in their LEGO forms. The Justice League is forced to take down a legion of doppelganger superheroes in the form of the Bizarro League, featuring such nefarious evil-doers as Batzarro, Bizarra, and Greenzarro! An entertaining joyride within not only the DC universe, but the LEGO universe as well, this direct-to-DVD movie allows for fun, silly romp for younger audiences and quick, amusing action and comedy for adults. 

Gargoyles: Gargoyles was a complex, thought-provoking animated series that catered to both children and adults. The show centered around species of petrified gargoyles who have reawakened in modern-day New York City and take on the roles of the city's secret night-time protectors. A dark, dramatic tone, rich character arcs, and complex themes makes Gargoyles an absolute spectacle to watch. Gargoyles ceased production in 1997, but Greg Weisman’s #KeepBingingGargoyles movement on social media is still very active. Make sure to check out Gargoyles on Disney+! 

Batman: Under the Red Hood: Arguably the darkest entry on this list, this DC animated movie focuses on one of the most iconic comic book storylines in the Batman mythos. The movie follows Batman's investigation into a new enemy known as the Red Hood, who may or may not be an old friend who has surprisingly popped back into the dark knight’s life. Incredibly somber, yet powerful in the dramatic department, this film’s wonderous art style, talented voice cast, and heartfelt, tear-jerking moments makes it stand out among the various animated films in the DC catalog. A can’t miss movie for any Batman fan, Under the Red Hood can captivate any viewer with its adult themes and plot-driven narratives. 

W.I.T.C.H: The animated fantasy series based on the Italian comic book series, W.I.T.C.H. was a unique franchise that mixed both elements of hair-raising adventure and character-driven storylines that made the protagonists incredibly interesting. The series centered around our five leads, Will, Irma, Taranee, Cornelia and Hay Lin, who have magical powers which they use to fulfill their duties as Guardians of the Veil. Not only is the series funny and visually fantastic to look at, but the characters are quite relatable as well with the creators making sure that they come off as fallible, yet likable and humane too. The series’ vibrant animation style and quick, sharp sense of humor makes W.I.T.C.H. a timeless animated series that continues to be popular with audiences to this day. 

Scooby-Doo! WrestleMania Mystery: A comedic adventure involving our favorite Mystery Gang and the WWE foundation, this direct-to-DVD movie has anyone who watches this in stitches. The mysterious appearance of a ghostly creature has Scooby-Doo, Shaggy, and the rest of the Mystery Gang searching for clues along with the help of various WWE stars. An all-star cast, a sense of energetic, zany humor, and even cameos from some well-known Young Justice characters make this movie a fun and exciting ride in the world of Hanna-Barbera.
