Cartoon Network (CN) has confirmed Blossom, Bubbles, and Buttercup, the superhero of Townsville created by "Sugar, spice, and everything nice," with Chemical X, will return in a redesigned special with "re-imagined" computer graphics.

According to a statement issued by CN, the special will feature the Powerpuff Girls to rescue not just the city of Townsville but the world.

The special will also feature Beatle Ringo Starr as flamboyant mathematician "Fibonacci Sequins" and will feature an original song titled "I Wish I Was A Powerpuff Girl."
