Superheroes in animation

 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

Superheroes have been in animated works, but no sources seem to discuss the overall topic of "superheroes in animation". The only sources cited are two reviews of individual shows that do not discuss the greater topic as a whole. The article is full of WP:OR by suggesting that action based cartoons like Biker Mice from Mars are "superheroes". Would suggest a merge to List of superhero television series, but every sentence of this has been unsourced since 2009. If there is a coherent topic here, then WP:TNT is the better solution.

 * Comment There is a good page of treatment on the subject as a whole in the The encyclopedia of superheroes on film and television. There is also quite an amount of scholarly treatment of individual aspects of the topic, like this. Daranios (talk) 10:45, 25 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete per TNT. I think there are sources to support a decent article, such as this one, but a decent article wouldn't look anything like what currently exists. Argento Surfer (talk) 13:14, 25 April 2022 (UTC)
