[gaastra]

Aquaman is frosty! This is based on the 60s cartoon special and not the early books.

Warner? What, did Classic Media lose the rights to the 60's cartoon special already?

(And on the plus side, at least it's not that Michael Keaton thing that had to be retitled when the producers didn't have them...)

I believe Warner owns the secondary rights.

I believe Warner owns the secondary rights.

I thought the highest Warner went up in the Rankin-Bass holiday hierarchy was "The Year Without A Santa Claus", which was why they kept ramming the Miser Brothers down our 'Boomer-nostalgia throats.

Did some digging and only found this:

The ancillary rights to Frosty are owned by Warner Bros.,[2] but due to the prominence of the Rankin/Bass TV special itself, merchandising of the character is generally licensed in tandem with that special's current owners, DreamWorks Classics.

Slightly outdated with the name.
