Hiatus/Cancellations!! Renegades & Titan!!

The Hub had it's press announcement talking about their continuing programming for 2011-2012 & GI Joe fandom is in an uproar... because the new hit series "GI Joe Renegades" has been put on hiatus after just 1 season! The decision comes in favor of a new GI Joe cartoon that will tie in closer to the upcoming movie universe made by the upcoming film "GI Joe 2" in 2012 while still lending itself to what Renegades has already established.

According to Cartoon Network cult favorite "Symbionic Titan" has also been canceled after just 1 season for not having enough media tie-ins (toys etc.) to continue with the animation.
