According to HulkieD of YouTube, the guy who did the voiceover for the "Centurions" bumpers (along with many other action show bumpers and commercials, such as "G-Force" for example) is Ken Osborne.
The other, high-pitched voiceover (the guy who does most of the "World Premiere Toons" spots) identity is unknown, as are many pre-"Powerhouse" CN voiceovers.
..also don't know who the main promo voice for Powerhouse was, but the voice is way more familiar. He did KYW in the early 90s, but is more famous as that ominous voice for almost EVERY negative political ad. So it's quite a jump from mudslinging to plugging Bugs and Daffy!
As for Phil (Hartman), it was obvious he was going to be the main voiceover guy and the Powerhouse bumpers initially went on air with his voice. After his death, Political Ad Guy took over bumps, but they started using Harry Shearer quite a bit before he went over to TV Land.
They switched to Tom Clark in 2001 (he was featured on-air in one of those great Big Game stunts), then Doug Preis from about 2003-04. Then they switched to the CG bumps and the girl and then I lost track...
