After nearly 20 years since What's New, Scooby-Doo? began, Simple Plan has finally released a studio version of the series theme song. Despite the song only being just over a minute long, the song has become a favorite for fans of the band, in fact, so much so that they often play the theme song at concerts. The studio version of the theme song can finally be purchased for $1.29 on platforms such as iTunes and Amazon, and is also available on other music streaming sites such as Spotify, Deezer, and many more.

Straight from GamesRadar.com, the solicitations for all Scooby-Doo comics being released in October 2021...plus one from November as well...have been announced.

The Dark Knight teams up with Scooby-Doo and Mystery Inc. in a series of adventures and mysteries! It all starts when Batman discovers his original purple gloves are missing—Velma, Shaggy, and Scooby-Doo will have to go back in time to solve the case! Collects The Batman and Scooby-Doo Mysteries #1-6.

On the iTunes "extras" menu for Straight Outta Nowhere: Scooby-Doo Meets Courage the Cowardly Dog, some brand new images of the film, some of which were not in the trailer, have been revealed. All the new pictures from the film can be seen below:

Several months ago, when we got a finalized list of the guest stars for Guess Who, it was discovered that KISS was not among these guest stars despite a 2017 post from Gene Simmons claiming there was another Scooby/KISS project coming. Many of us assumed that the Reverend Run episode was originally supposed to feature KISS. Tonight, Tracy Mark Lee posted a subtle hint on Instagram that implies the KISS episode was actually originally planned in place of The Hex Girls episode. He also posted a rough character design of Shaggy and Scooby head banging that would have been in the KISS episode, which can be seen below.

According to Tyler Turett on Instagram, the series Velma is in production now! It's not clear if the picture above is the animation for the series, but I'm leaning towards assuming it is not. Hopefully this means we'll get more info about the series soon!

The lead character designer, Adam Fay, also posted on Instagram confirming that production began for the show on June 1. Adam confirmed that the image on his post wasn't the official animation of the show, so I would presume the other one is not the official animation either.

Update: ​There's also this post on LinkedIn stating that WB is hiring for a storyboard artist on Velma, meaning they must be in a very early production stage!

Hi all, I'm back from New York now and am able to make posts again! As I guessed, because the big news always happens whenever I'm gone, we got possibly the biggest news we could have gotten last Tuesday: the long-awaited Scooby-Doo and Courage trailer! The film will be called Straight Outta Nowhere: Scooby-Doo and Courage the Cowardly Dog and will release September 14, 2021, just in time for Scooby's anniversary. Here's the official press release that I was sent by WB Marketing:

According to Tony Cervone and ComicBookMovie.com, a follow-up to SCOOB! is coming out soon! Here is a quote from Tony's interview with CBM: "Actually, we are kicking the tyres on a follow-up to Scoob! It hasn’t been announced yet, but it’s something we’re all excited about. The whole creative team that made the first movie is still around and back and working on something new. It was neat to create this Hanna-Barbera Cinematic Universe, and it’s exciting to return to it."

I'm really excited for this follow-up! Notice that he did say "follow-up," not "sequel" as the CBM article says, so I think it's very possible we could get a SCOOB! television series instead of a second film.

I'm incredibly excited for September's comic solicitations, because for the first time in almost 30 years, A Pup Named Scooby-Doo is going to get a full-length comic for the sixth issue of Batman & Scooby-Doo Mysteries. It will also be released just in time for Scooby's anniversary (well, I suppose it's a day late, but you get my point lol).

​Here's the full solicitation from GamesRadar:
