Lunatics!

Lunatics
Pronunciation: 'lü-n&-"tiks
noun
  1. The new Kids' WB "Innovative, High-Octane Comedy-Adventure Series" spun off from the Looney Tunes cartoons you grew up with (spelled "Loonatics").
  2. The insane people at Warner Brothers who came up with this idea.
The series features futuristic, re-imagined Looney Tunes characters as an X-Men-like group of superheroes. Brilliantly original concept.

The leader was originally named "Buzz Bunny," but they dropped that name because they forgot to Google it first; it's the name of a "female stimulator", if you catch my meaning, if you get my drift. So they switched to "Ace Bunny," but decided to leave subtle clues to their original idea in their press release:
Ace Bunny (descendant of Bugs Bunny), voiced by Charlie Schlatter, the adroit and quick-witted, action-driven leader who galvanizes his crew for each mission, boasting infrared laser-lock vision and marital arts ingenuity.
