Ever since word got out about Sony Online’s upcoming MMO DC Universe Online—which features all of the DC characters in their native environments—the ‘net has been buzzing with anticipation.

Judging by the character art, you won’t have to choose between trigger-happy sexpot or girl-next-door. The game will hit on PC and next-gen consoles (expect something nasty from the Unreal 3 engine license) but, with a target date of “2008″ it’s not clear exactly when.
