This week, Warner Bros. dismantled a decades old cartoon-themed mural which in recent years served as the public face of the studios' connection to DC Comics.

Cartoon Brew caught some photos of the removal of stories-high homage to the likes of Superman, Batman, Bugs Bunny and Scooby-Doo at the Warner Studio lot in Burbank. While the mural once held a "cartoon Mount Rushmore" featuring the likes of Fred Flintstone, since 2009 it has served as the most public expression of the company's commitment to the DC superhero line.

Of course with a full DC Editorial office now in Burbank, it's not as though Warners is looking to downplay its ownership of the likes of Batman and Superman any time soon. But with such a long-running cornerstone of the company's cartoon pride coming down, what could possibly take its place?
