So technically, Ioan Griffudd is making history ? by RobinP	Jan 29th, 2005 07:32:26 PM
Correct me if I'm wrong, but is a fellow native Welsh guy, like myself, the ONLY person ever to play both a D.C hero (Mr Miracle) and a marvel hero ? Hey, better yet...both in the same year...uh...and both starting with the word "Mister" ? (I'm now officially clutching at straws)
They're having The Question on JLU?... by Wungolioth	Jan 29th, 2005 07:38:28 PM
Too bad it won't be The Question of the excellent series from late 80's. One of my favorite characters and the character that Alan Moore based Rorschach on in The Watchmen, I may just check it out. By the way, why hasn't Herc mentioned all these ex-Mutant Enemy employees suddenly popping up as voices for these characters?
well, Robin... by I87D	Jan 29th, 2005 08:31:00 PM
since you put providing a voice for a character on the same level as physically portraying them on screen, there is a chance that Mr. Guffy is the first, but not likely. The world of TV animation has a surpisingly small cadre of vocal talent they keep turning to (though JL does like to use a lot of people with recognizable names -- a rarity on TV), so considering the long history of both Marvel and DC characters on the small screen (particularly Saturday morning fare), there's probably a few people who've done work in both universes... just no one we've ever heard of. Sounds like someone might be spending a good deal of time on the IMDb this weekend... (though not me)
Do not miss tonight's episode, West Coasters by Mister Nobody	Jan 29th, 2005 09:03:41 PM
There's an extremely unexpected guest star tonight, someone actually thought to not be a part of DC Animated continuity whatsoever. Also, some shocking revelations about what could be on the horizon for the JLU members, courtesy of their future selves.
Cartoon Network's Strange Programming Strategy Regarding JUSTICE by Village Idiot	Jan 29th, 2005 09:04:44 PM
As a devoted comics fan (i.e., a nerd) and as a devoted DC fan (i.e., a big fat nerd), I look forward to JUSTICE LEAGUE UNLIMITED -- when I can catch it. For it seems that the show is only on Saturday nights, and if I'm not home to see it or neglect to tape it, I miss it. (And 9 times out of ten, when I finally do get a chance to see the show, it's a rerun of one I've already seen.) Meanwhile, TEEN freaking TITANS seems to be on every time I turn on my television._____My question is why is Cartoon Network so liberal with their airing of TEEN TITANS, (which is barely tolerable), while they're so stingy with JUSTICE LEAGUE? It's like they're hoarding it, for crying out loud. Sure, sure, Anime is real big with the kids right now, and therefore no one with a eyeball diameter of less that 6 inches gets any airtime. But the bad taste of today's youth notwithstanding, you'd think they'd show it at least a little bit more, just to get their money's worth, right?
JLU airtimes.. by 1816	Jan 29th, 2005 09:21:41 PM
Village Idiot-- JLU also usually airs on Sunday at 5:00 pm Eastern, 4:00 pm Central, unless there is some kind of special movie scheduled. I, also, am a big fat nerd.
by Mister Nobody	Jan 29th, 2005 09:33:14 PM
1816 -- no, it doesn't. There are no re-airings after the Saturday night one and haven't been for months. The titles of the episodes Herc mentions are "Cat and Canary" "Ties that Bind" "Doomsday Sanction" "Double Date" also coming this season: "Mystery in Space" -- oh, yes "The Clash" "The Balance" and a FOUR PART season finale. Captain Marvel? check. Suice Squad? oh yes, indeed. And by the way, "Double Date" isn't the first appearance of Jeffrey Coomb's creepy, paranoid Question. If you missed this past season's "Fearful Symmetry", you missed the Question terrorizing an informant with boy band music and revealing that he goes through the trash of all the JLU members...
That "Steamboat Harry" animation is brilliant. by Osmosis Jones	Jan 29th, 2005 10:26:11 PM
Oh, and why bother with the watered-down Justice Leage 'toon when we've just gotten new volumes of Batman: TAS and Superman: TAS on DVD? Lois Lane...I could stare at her legs all day...
Jeffrey Combs as the Question???? by lonesomerhodes	Jan 29th, 2005 10:54:30 PM
SWEET!! I love Jeffrey Combs!!!! Long live Dr. Herbert West!!!!
Justice League Online. by Waspo	Jan 29th, 2005 11:32:15 PM
Just download the episode off the internest like I do if you miss one. Yes, Cartoon Network isn't really airing Justice League like they should, but what can you do? Bit-Torrent is your friend.
Misc. by Gislef_crow	Jan 30th, 2005 12:26:04 AM
Hmmm, hope Herc isn't borrowing stuff from TVTome.com (where we had some of this information for about six months - way to keep current). I'm also not sure if Ioan will be playing Mr. Miracle. It also hasn't been officially announced that Double Date will be on 2/26. JLU is shown about as often as Teen Titans - I think there are as many episodes, although JLU still has more (I believe...). In the previews for tonight, we got to see Doomsday and the Suicide Squad - Deadshot and Captain Boomerang at least, although in some crappy government-issue uniforms. Hey, and more action with Vigilante and Shining Knight. Vigilante vs. Deadshot - sounds like an interesting match...
"Fearful Symmetry" by Ribbons	Jan 30th, 2005 12:41:25 AM
Hmm. Maybe I'm wrong, but wasn't that the title of an episode in "Batman: TAS?" A completely pointless fact, I suppose, but I wonder if the two are connected in some way (i.e., someone on "JLU" worked on/watched "Batman"). Oh well. I've never actually watched "JLU," even though I want to (believe it or not, I do have some semblance of a social life and am often not home on Saturday evenings), but the idea of the entire DC Universe in one show sounds pretty cool.
Bring back Batman Beyond dammit! by Darth_Nader	Jan 30th, 2005 12:58:09 AM
As a fellow nerd who loved Batman Beyond, I was excited to see them bring some of the characters back. They advanced it maybe 5-10 years beyond the end of the series (Terry seemed much older). It was nice of them to throw in Static, as he would be an elder statesmen of the superheros. I was dissapointed that the new future JLU made no reference to the one thee other characters they actually used in BB (Aquagirl, a new boy GL, Barda, Micron). Why did they can this series? I thought it was great.
Batman Beyond: Return of the Joker was a great way to end BB by Tall_Boy	Jan 30th, 2005 01:01:51 AM
Past and future mushed together in the "last Batman story", or something along those lines. Go out on a high note, thats what I say. Though now I am interested to check out the time travelin' league, if only to see Terry 10 years in the future. Still, I think ROTJ (heh) is a great note to go out on the BB universe.
Who's not part of DC animated continuity ? by JohnnyFriendly	Jan 30th, 2005 01:08:51 AM
If you think it's Hal Jordan, think again -- he was the GL on the old "Challenge of the Superfriends" toon. Actually, most of the JLU "special guest stars" ( The Question, Captain Atom, Booster Gold ) are new to animation thanks to the Cartoon Network. I must agree, though -- they're waay too generous with airing of Teen Titans ( they run mini-marathons, for Pete's sake )and stingy with the Justice League.
The "hand of god" imagery was a little much, IMO by The Killer-Goat	Jan 30th, 2005 01:48:22 AM
but the rest of the episode was fun. Seeing Joker's bad clown gang from BB:ROTJ again(VoiceActors, too!) was a neat treat, albeit an odd contradiction of Bonk's status from the ROTJ director's cut. Not too happy about the "clean slate" resolution, considering the elder Bruce Wayne had no recollection whatsoever of jumping around in time even though Bats and GL actually DID retain memory of those events after their return. The one thing that always annoyed the hell out of me was that with 4 or 5 seasons of Batman Beyond to work from, there were only vague hints as to Joker's and Bane's demise, as well as one somewhat unsettling story about Rha's Al Ghul's fate, but nothing at all on Penguin, Scarecrow, Catwoman, Ivy, 2Face, or ANY of Batman's other serious gallery of rogues. As if the previous entire decade of Batman animated stories were suddenly inconsequential. Guh. Oh, and it's about DAMN time we saw a Flash episode! They better make up for the speedster's total lack of presence in the entire first half of Season 3! I mean, what about his various team-ups with Elongated Man??? Those are classic!
Regarding Teen Titans by The Killer-Goat	Jan 30th, 2005 02:08:23 AM
Curious to know if this even fits within the other Timm/Dini DC timeline universes. Can't really tolerate the pandered-down pre-pubescent storylines so I haven't watched enough to know if they've clued that or not. Don't expect it to be the case since the TT Robin seems more the Tim Drake character, whose demise we witnessed in ROTJ at a young age, so that kinda boots that out. Then again, there was some TT episode of time travel with implication of Nightwing, like the Dick Grayson version in the B:TAS. Just doesn't make alot of sense. Wonder if they'll do a crossover ep like some of those oddball Static Shock episodes I heard about.
Ribbons: 'tis William Blake by Hal2814	Jan 30th, 2005 02:13:02 AM
The title "Fearful Symmetry" comes from a line in the immortal William Blake's poem, "The Tyger": ---Tyger Tyger. burning bright, In the forests of the night; What immortal hand or eye. Could frame thy fearful symmetry?---I think even the X-files referenced Blake's deathless verse for the title. Cheers...
JohnnyFriendly and Killer-Goat, things to consider by SamBluestone	Jan 30th, 2005 03:40:54 AM
JF, you forget that in the Kyle Rayner Superman ep, there's a plane that says "Col. Hal Jordan." Who's to say that Hal doesn't become a GL sometime later in continuity? After all, we know that Dini and Timm are huge Hal Jordan fans. So yes, while we may not have seen him, his presence has already been technicaly established. And that's not even counting his Duck Dodgers appearance (John Stewart was in that one too, I might add)! And Killer-Goat, I don't know if you're aware but the "Hand" is a long-established concept in the DCU and GLC mythos, and was featured rather prominently in the JLA/AVENGERS crossover. So its appearance was actually perfectly in keeping with the overall faithfulness to the comics themselves. I think that's wonderful that they're so true to the original stories! In fact, half the fun of the JLU show is connecting all the dots, isn't it? As for the episode itself: I'm not so much a Batman Beyond fan personally (a little too wanna-be "hip" for my tastes), but there was so much to love in this episode. The two Batmen playing "good cop/bad cop"! Brilliant! The wonderful and underrated Peter "X The Eliminator from Harvey Birdman" MacNicol as Chronos! And Hal motherfucking Jordan, aw yeah! If only he stuck around a little bit longer... it'd be nice to see a GL who actually has some frickin' IMAGINATION with his ring instead of Stewart who uses it as a glorified blaster and shield. It's a GL ring, for God's sake, have some fun with it! Sheesh! Can't wait for next season!
'Justice League' gets no respect on Cartoon Network by mbaker	Jan 30th, 2005 05:36:29 AM
I agree that 'Teen Titans' gets way too much airplay than 'Justice League'. 'Teen Titans' isn't nearly as good. The annoying anime sight gags, and piss poor writing bring it down a few pegs. (The less said about 'The Batman', the better) Cartoon Network needs to air 'Justice League' reruns durring the week on prime time instead of crap like 'Yu-Gi-Oh'!
Episode Count by DustoMan	Jan 30th, 2005 09:01:13 AM
While seasons 1 and 2 did have 26 episodes, it should really be counted as 13 because they were mostly two parters. When CN wanted to "re-brand" the show, they asked the creators to ditch the two part stories every week. So really this is right. Next week starts the actual Season 4.
by ThingsThatTimDog	Jan 30th, 2005 10:05:36 AM
Cool. Lots of Mutant Enemies are doing voice work for these episodes.*****There is rumor a episode with Captain Marvel v Superman is in the works.
More Misc. by Gislef_crow	Jan 30th, 2005 11:38:10 AM
"The "hand of god" imagery was a little much, IMO" - Marv Wolfman would probably agree with you, since he used it in Crisis in Infinite Earths. Although DC had established the big hand at the beginning of the universe at least a decade before Crisis. Since the future we see here was an alternate timeline, nothing that happened here shouldbe confised "official" or part of the established continuity. Old Batman doesn't remember what happened because in his alternate timeline, he and Chronos never met. And Bonk never died. And Return... may never have occurred, if Chronos took over the world before then in the alternate timeline. Mr. Freeze did appear in Batman Beyond, and Bane's fate was determined. Teen Titans - they've already stated that show isn't part of the "official" WB animated continuity.
BB by thefutureoffilm	Jan 30th, 2005 12:23:25 PM
I friggin loved Batman Beyond and think they should bring it back, but that sucked to see Terry die in this alternate future, at least the regular Terry didn't bite it. Didn't yall love that momemt with Bruce, "TERRY!! Terry."
JLU airtimes by Voice O. Reason	Jan 30th, 2005 12:26:01 PM
Cartoon Network's attitude seems to be "IF you missed it, FUCK YOU, here's 200 reairings of 'Static Shock' and 'Teen Titans' instead." They couldn't even be bothered to do reruns in between seasons most of the time, the dumb fuckers.
I like Teen Titans and Static. by The Founder	Jan 30th, 2005 12:47:32 PM
So the hell with all y'all who don't.
The whole Teen Titans Robin thing... by Lenonn	Jan 30th, 2005 01:10:10 PM
... it's all messed up. On TEEN TITANS, the hints all dropped seem to point to it being Dick Grayson. But, on STATIC SHOCK, Batman said in one episode that Robin was with the Titans. And in the game BATMAN: RISE OF SIN TZU, which is in the DCAU, the voice of Robin in that game (who is obviously Tim Drake) is provided by Scott Menville... Scott Menville is the voice of Robin on TEEN TITANS, too.
Pretty sure "Fearful Symmetry" was primarily a reference to... by The Garbage Man	Jan 30th, 2005 01:17:31 PM
the like-titled chapter of "Watchmen" dealing with Rorschach, as a subtle nod to The Question's influence on Rorschach, and Rorschach's subsequent influence on the modern incarnation of The Question. But Moore did get the title (and a few other tidbits) from Blake, so...
DARN IT.....WHY DIDNT YOU SAY EARLIER by zathras34	Jan 30th, 2005 02:28:17 PM
OK..Normally im not this way (upset)..but I count on herc to say when they are going to be on..(new eps..) so now the season finale is over..with ARRRGH batman beyond..how I miss that show..and im sure joker has another chip...in a head somewhere..(say harley) But to read this after being 9:00 pm and I checked on her till mid..est..and nothing was said..ARRRGH!!!! so yeah it sucks that I missed this season enders..but I will give credit also..for saying to look in feb.. I now know..the batman is new next week..and now justice league.. so herc..give us east coasters a little bit more notice of when new eps are on... by the way what was the title of the season ender??.. and yes I agree..bring back batman beyond..and comon..like I said..joker never dies.. ok i have now well &itched about it..thanks to all for being patient...any feedback is welcomed.. and one last thing..amy acker as huntress..as austin would say..."OH HELL YEAH"..(fred burkle is going huntress) to bad no costume in real life... peace
I forgot about "the hand" in Crisis... by The Killer-Goat	Jan 30th, 2005 02:51:55 PM
That makes it easier to accept as an easter egg, at least. Just perhaps a little too metaphysical or spiritual for my tastes. Then again, with a character like Dr. Fate around, I suppose it's all fair game. I agree that nothing should be taken as official in this last 2-parter since anything with time-travel has proven inconsequential throughout these animated series. But I suppose that's the bummer. It would be nice to see something bad stick, a missed flaw with consequences, since a perfect resolution is alot to hope for every time. And since they've already deviated from the comics with the series, they could get away with some more (witness Vandal Savage's WW2 dictatorship). This last episode was a good way to re-affirm the BB series continuity, but I almost feel they could've spent more time in the future than the old west to reflect that. Good reminder about Freeze, btw, thanks. That was definitely a good BB episode.
ohhh, moviemack.. tsk, tsk. how could you not see by The Killer-Goat	Jan 30th, 2005 02:59:42 PM
all the wonderful possibilities of spending a steamy night with the "gooey chick", aka Inque? Wait-- dammit, I meant to THINK that, not say it out loud... Ah well, at least wifey doesn't seem to mind the wierd fantasies.
Holy Shit that was a good episode by War_Tourist	Jan 30th, 2005 03:31:23 PM
There were at least 3 awesome moments in Part II of the once and future thing. Spoilers if you're one of "those" people The first fight between the JL and the joker gang was fucking gangbusters! Holy jesus, that was the most kinetic, surprising, and down right cool fight I've seen on TV PERIOD in a very long time. Kudos on the editing! The whole "you guys screwed up" speech by the time master OWNED. I called a friend of mine after and the first thing he said to me was "Do you know what killed the dinosaurs?" Brilliant writing and comedic timing. And lastly, the whole interrogation scene with the two batmans was hilarious. That was some first rate comic book coolness on display there. End Spoilers Overall, who knew this show could be this good? Sure that Joker reality TV thing from last year was inspired, and Warren Ellis sure as hell delivered, but this show has been consistently surprising and engaging for almost a full year now. Wow...just wow!
Flash?! by viola123	Jan 30th, 2005 04:03:34 PM
Wow, Flash is going to be in an episode. I thought they forgot about him, g. But that's good. Looking forward to that eppy, plus Ioan Gruffudd -- woohoo! I missed last night's eppy, but yep, they'll replay it this afternoon. So check it out if you missed it. I think it's on at 5pm, like was mentioned. :)
Jeffrey Combs Rules as The Question by CHEWBLACCA	Jan 30th, 2005 04:22:54 PM
I never really liked the charcater until I heard Jeffrey Combs' voice come out of him. I also want more Jeremy Piven as Elastic Man.
Justice League by Purgatori	Jan 30th, 2005 04:29:20 PM
is one of the best cartoons ever made. I actually like it over the X-men cartoon series that Fox used to have (which is saying a lot) I just wish they would start releasing the entire seasons on DVD, cause this onsey twosey stuff sucks major dickage. I love the guest star voices (especially Combs as The Question since he was awesome as The Scarecrow and in anything he's in) I'ts just an amazing show. Teen Titans annoys the hell out of me 9 times out of 10. I just don't like the style they've used for it. But Justice League and JLU kick ass.
The Robin mystery. by mbaker	Jan 30th, 2005 05:36:34 PM
I always find it odd that the 'Teen Titans' Robin is suppose to be Dick Grayson, when on 'Static Shock'', Batman tell him that Robin (Tim Drake) is with 'The Titans'. As well as the fact that Scott Menville voices the Tim Drake Robin in the 'Rise Of Sin Tzu' game. It's pretty clear that 'Teen Titans' (As well as 'The Batman') exists in it's own seperate continuity from the DCAU. I've always had a problem with different continuities because of how the make things more complicated. I just wish that 'Teen Titans did exist in the Dini?Timm continuity, and have Tim be the current Robin. It just makes things less confusing.
why on earth doesnt the cartoon channel hype this sucker based o by atomheartbrother	Jan 30th, 2005 05:57:07 PM

For all you guys that get confused easily with continuity... by kdog69	Jan 30th, 2005 07:20:41 PM
batman the animated series, superman, batman beyond, static, justice league, and jlu are all part of the same continuity. teen titans doesn't have any continuity... And I personally loved Batman Beyond, especially the Bane, Mr. Freeze, and Ras al Ghul episodes(I had nightmares with talia talking with Ras voice...creepy stuff). And practicly every JLU episode is downloadable online for all you guys who miss em.
Oh, and I have one question... by kdog69	Jan 30th, 2005 07:28:30 PM
What showed that the Robin on Teen Titans is Dick Grayson? I could never bring myself to watching Teen Titans again after veiwing the first episode(why did they change Deathstroke's name to Slade? I know that his real name is slade, but it just seemed kind of a dumb change. And isn't he suppose to be a bounty hunter... not a masked Lex Luthor rippoff).
Last comment... by kdog69	Jan 30th, 2005 07:34:14 PM
Someone please petition against "the batman". It is the worst peice of crap I have ever watched and has no right to be on the air. I mean joker tries to turn people into playing cards for crying out loud...
Elastic Man? by Gislef_crow	Jan 30th, 2005 08:48:34 PM
Jeremy Piven played Elongated Man, not Elastic Man.
Ras al Ghul by thefutureoffilm	Jan 30th, 2005 10:44:25 PM
What episode of Batman Beyond was he in/mentioned?
Bring back Giganta! by Judge Doom	Jan 30th, 2005 10:55:35 PM
Damn that monkey woman is H-O-T ! PLus, Combs as Question = Genious!!!!!
Batman Beyond by stvnhthr	Jan 30th, 2005 11:48:44 PM
DC has a hands off Batman Beyond policy for some reason. I sent them a proposal to do a Batman Beyond comic, but drawn in a realistic style and they said they don't ever plan on using those characters again, no matter how good the ideas are.
Ra's Al Ghul and BB by Gislef_crow	Jan 31st, 2005 12:25:09 AM
Ra's Al Ghul (sic) appeared (sorta) in the BB episode "Out of the Past." Still voiced by David Warner from the original animated series.
Back the F*** Off Teen Titans! by BobFunch	Jan 31st, 2005 04:23:04 AM
Holy cat turds people! Several to-the-point comments: Teen Titans is Free with their animation! Let them breathe in their own style. Yes, Justice League is woefully underplayed on Cartoon Network. Why? I don't know. CN is the best damn channel on cable right now going on (at least) two years now so let them figure out their schedule. Maybe they'll hit us with a glut of Justice League in June -- But it's not Teen Titan's fault. Thirdly they're all owned by Warner Bros. so don't count out a Batman crossover into TT at some point... Tim or Dick not withstanding they sure made the Nightwing on TT look alot like he was on Batman. And finally ... FINALLY ... Where are the f***ing complaints about Static Lame Ass Shock crossing over in the first place?! All you dicks bitching about TT got to look me in the eye and tell me Static Shock is a superior series. Because it AINT! Don't get me wrong, I've givin it a chance. But 12 out of 15 episodes feel like after-school specials. When Static crossed over to Justice League I felt nothing but bad for the Justice League. Tell me the whole thing didn't just feel wrong. I'm sorry, I've tried to like Static Shock, but it is LAME. Stick a fork in it.
The fact that Batman Beyond was killed in this episode was prett by Prof. Pop-Cult	Jan 31st, 2005 07:20:03 AM
...Yeah, Batman and Green Lantern restored the timeline, but Terry McGinnis' Batman didn't have much to do but die. Perhaps that was the producers' way of implying that there will be no more from the Batman Beyond universe.
I guess I was the only one happy about the Hal Jordan cameo. Hey by Big Bad Clone	Jan 31st, 2005 08:03:00 AM
They hint it's Dick as Robin in an episode featuring a Myxplx like character that loves Robin (even dresses like him) that says that his name is Nosyarg Kcid. Dick Grayson backwards.
SUICIDE SQUAD Coming Up!!!!!!!!!! by Squashua	Jan 31st, 2005 09:29:50 AM
Anyone else watch the credits? I saw a pink-clad Captain Boomerang, et. al. Guess what the "Government' throws as the JLU in a couple episodes? Amanda Waller!
re: Suicide Squad by Gislef_crow	Jan 31st, 2005 10:57:07 AM
Ummm, yeah, the Captain Boomerang thing was noted up above. The guy with the mustache and the gun is presumably Deadshot/Floyd Lawton. Presumably Michael Rosenbaum will be returning to voice him again (as he did in Enemy Below and Hereafter). Hopefully that means we'll see CCH Pounder again as Amanda Waller as well.
To NewYorkKid by War_Tourist	Jan 31st, 2005 10:57:13 AM
That was the most awesome Comic Book Guy from the Simpsons impression I've ever read.
TT and JLU by Homer Sexual	Jan 31st, 2005 11:31:16 AM
I enjoyed the second part last night very much, despite not knowing who that Static person was. I hadn't liked the first half so much, but the conclusion was excellent. I agree that JLU is shown much less than TT, but I love Teen Titans. At first the extreme stylization bothered me, but once I got used to it, I have come to love the Titans. JLU is a bit more ponderous, whereas TT is frenetic and bizarre. I mean, this weekend when Robin went on his "vision quest" all the other Titans dressed up in his clothes and pretended to be him. Is that wild and crazy or what? Got to love the Titans!
JLU needs Guy Gardner by LordSoth	Jan 31st, 2005 12:58:48 PM
They need Guy and the Gardners of the Universe like they need a hole in the head. And, that's exactly why he should become a regualr.
Great episode, I have never seen JLA Unlimited before. I just di by Mr. Profit	Jan 31st, 2005 01:33:48 PM
It was good though, is it out on DVD? And what's with the odd Saturday evening timeslot. I have never seen this show before in my life. It was pretty good.
A fun way... by Childe Roland	Jan 31st, 2005 05:16:20 PM
...to end a season that had some hits and some misses. The whole nightmare future where heroes have become the hunted has been done to death, but it was neat to see the alterna-DCU characters from other animated series in these incarnations. I actually enjoyed Batman Beyond as an elseworlds idea and, I think, using him here in a storyline about time travel and divergent futures was totally appropriate. So was icing him. Can't wait for more The Question and a little Suicide Squad action. I just wish the show was still an hour. It's good, but there's never enough of it to fully ease into the ass groove on my couch and enjoy.
Ioan not the first to play both DC & Marvel... by Vegiterrorist	Jan 31st, 2005 10:53:39 PM
If we're counting voice-over work (which apparently we are), I remind you that Mark Hamill voiced The Joker on Batman the Animated Series and played The Trickster on the live action Flash series, yet he also voiced Hobgoblin on the '90s Spider-Man cartoon and Gargoyle on the Hulk cartoon. So he's done at least four comic characters, two from each universe.
Dad?!?!? by strick1029	Feb 1st, 2005 01:21:32 PM
Why is nobody commenting on the fact that (SPOILER ALTERT) GL meets his future "Hawk Kid"? Oh yeah, how hot is Shayera walking around in the sports bra and yoga pants?
Does anyone know when this episode will Re-Air??? by Atomica	Feb 1st, 2005 04:08:40 PM
My cable was on the fritz because we had a Hell-acious IceStorm. My power and cable went out, of course until lame ass Megas XLR came one. What Luck.
Honestly the two best episodes of any of the shows in years. by iamnicksaicnsn	Feb 1st, 2005 04:30:14 PM
Justice League was a piece of garbage. JLU hasn't been much of an improvement, I mean, who the hell wants to see an episode about Hawk and Dove? The reason these episodes were so good was because they really used the three best characters in the show. Batman, Green Lantern, and Wonder Woman (especially the sexual tension between Batman and WW) are really, with the Flash, the only characters worth watching. Also, they had much better villains out of the ROTJ (problably the best Batman movie of all time) Jokerz. JLU has really only been worth watching when the heroes' respective villains play a part of the episode. As for killing Terry off, that was badass, as they rarely have the balls to do so in any of the DCAU cartoons, and technically that wasn't his ultimate death as far as "history" goes because he never had to fight Kronos, the Jokerz never got the upgrades from Kronos. Hopefully after this they'll do another episode with the Batman Beyond universe.

She's so hot, she'd make the Human Torch ask for ice water.
only season one of Justice League was bad... by kdog69	Feb 1st, 2005 06:46:21 PM
Minus the Season finale. Season 2 was wonderful. All of it. As for JLU there are a few crappy episodes, but nothing as bad as an episode of "the batman" and the good episodes more than make up for it. The best episodes are FEARFUL SYMMETRY, Ultimatum, Wake the Dead, The Return, and Dark Heart. I do have to give props to the THIS LITTLE PIGGY episode... The ending was the funniest thing I ever saw/heard in my life.

The writers may have said that because maybe they thought that teen titans would be part of the animated DCU continuity. It might have been a mistake, but something they should consider. Since they never have officially said which robin it is they can get away with just saying he is Tim Drake. What gets me is that they mention Gotham city, and when Robin was Slade's apprentice, they fought on a Wayne enterprises building. They seem to want to connected but never want to go all the way. I'm dying for at least a guest appereance from Batman on Titans!! arrrgghh
"Does anyone know when this episode will Re-Air???" You can down by Col. Klink	Feb 2nd, 2005 09:51:49 AM
Both episodes are posted in alt.binaries.multimedia.cartoo ns. If you don't want to mess with usenet, you can probably find them on BitTorrent, also. I rarely watch first-run episodes of ANY shows.I download them and watch them later at more convenient times.
