Last fall, the twisted minds behind the stop-motion animated series Robot Chicken put their signature spin on the heroes and villains of DC Comics in the Robot Chicken: DC Comics Special.  The guys are at it again for a follow-up special expected to air this fall.  Collider was invited to a special behind-the-scenes look at the creative process of scripting the show, in which the writers are subjected to a grueling daily extraction of creativity and humor fueled by long-expired Hostess cupcakes in which only the absolute cream of the comedy crop makes the cut.  Egos are bruised, personal ailments are dragged into the spotlight for laughs and beloved superheroes are defiled in all new ways.  And it all works.

Here's the announcement from the press release:
