SuaveStar Posted February 16, 2011 Report Share Posted February 16, 2011 Knowing how toy companies select characters from currently-running shows, I'd say that's a definite confirmation that he'll be there. There's no reason to spend thousands of dollars creating that figure when they could have made a Superman or Red Tornado figure. You reminded me, I forgot to post a picture of said character: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
You Know Who Posted February 16, 2011 Report Share Posted February 16, 2011 Interesting fact, both Young Justice and Spectacular Spider-Man had Greg Weisman as their main writer. I miss Spectacular Spider-Man. Also, according to ToyFair pics of figures coming out from Young Justice, a villain who could be showing up is: Ra's Al Ghul I actually thought he'd be in the last episode, since he's the leader of the League of Shadows. Guess not in this continuity, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KnightWing Posted February 16, 2011 Report Share Posted February 16, 2011 Yeah, they were called the League of Shadows. If Ra's was one of the light-villains, I wouldn't be surprised. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Speaking of which, who do y'all think are among the light-villains apart from T.O. Morrow? I happen to think Luthor and the Brain are somewhere among their ranks.

prez Posted February 16, 2011 Report Share Posted February 16, 2011 The Brain is definitely there. It's a pretty easy shape to pick out. Luthor's gotta be there. One of the Rogues, maybe? Grodd, I'd say would fit best, but the character doesn't traditionally trust humans. Another Batman villain in all probability, but I can't choose which one. Calculator if they're going modern. Merlin maybe, for the GA connection? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dc20willsave Posted February 16, 2011 Report Share Posted February 16, 2011 If you're going with a Rogue, I'd say Captain Cold or Professor Zoom, even though he is not one of the Rogues. I could also see T.O.Morrow as one of the heads. Personally, I think Artemis is not the agent on the inside. I would actually place my bets on Miss Martian (if she's actually a white Martian, plus who would suspect her?), Superboy (if, like in the comics, he share's Lex's DNA), or Red Tornado. I think Aqualad, Robin, and Kid Flash are above suspicion at this point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's too bloody obvious, she's introduced in the same episode that they talk about an inside informant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stavros Posted February 16, 2011 Report Share Posted February 16, 2011 It's definitely Miss Martian, although it'll be a huge shame if they lose her. She's basically that show's Starfire, I don't want to dislike her. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KnightWing Posted February 16, 2011 Report Share Posted February 16, 2011 I agree with both you guys. (Suave and Will) Artemis would only work if she pulled a Hawkgirl and switched sides. Otherwise it's too obvious. Superboy was cloned by the bad guys, so it'd make sense for him to have some secret programming somewhere. Miss Martian might be it, but I don't think we know enough yet. Red Tornado is a robot. Of all people, he'd be the easiest to turn to the dark side, via reprogramming. But that wouldn't have any emotional impact, so whatever. Aqualad, Robin, and Kid Flash are safe, I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AnimeToonFan Posted February 18, 2011 Report Share Posted February 18, 2011 Because the New Avengers cartoon is made almost exclusively for kids. Young Justice is aimed at kids, but made for everyone. I know this is totally off topic since it is a Young Justice thread but i'm curious as to why you think Avengers is aimed only at kids?

KnightWing Posted February 18, 2011 Report Share Posted February 18, 2011 It comes off as being a bit juvenile. The writing is pretty simple, the art is lacking, and there's just not much depth there. It's not a bad show by any means, but when it's stacked up against other shows it just falls short. At the moment, quality-wise, it's a step below The Batman. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Knowing Greg Weisman's gift for executing swerves and keeping mysteries going (demonstrated in both Gargoyles and The Spectacular Spiderman), the traitor is almost certainly not Artemis.

dc20willsave Posted February 19, 2011 Report Share Posted February 19, 2011 Good episode. I've always had a soft spot for Doctor Fate and this may have been one of the best depictions of him in an animated show. I also really liked the part with Kid Flash who is quickly becoming a favorite. Really, overall, there were some other great moments. Superboy is becoming a much more likable character and I loved that Doctor Fate got refereed to as the world's Sorcerer Supreme. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuaveStar Posted February 19, 2011 Report Share Posted February 19, 2011 I also really liked the part with Kid Flash who is quickly becoming a favorite. Does he say "Souvenir" because that, along with "Hello Megan!" are two of the most annoying things said on the show for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
You Know Who Posted February 19, 2011 Report Share Posted February 19, 2011 I agree; great episode. My enjoyment of it was enhanced by the fact that I've been watching Gargoyles for the first time recently and the episode's guest stars (Ed Asner, Thom Adcox, and Jeff Bennett) were all on that show. I loved the opening scene with Kent Nelson going to the fortuneteller. Also liked the characterization of Artemis in this one and the fact that the show is brave enough to have their characters actually pass on rather than be resurrected by the end of the episode. O, and to Suavestar: Almost as annoying as "Hello, Megan!" is Robin breaking down words (e.g. "whelmed"). Glad he wasn't in this episode.

dc20willsave Posted February 19, 2011 Report Share Posted February 19, 2011 I'll agree that it's nice that they're not going to shoehorn all of the members of the team into every episode. One of my favorite parts of Justice League was that you didn't need Superman in every episode, sometime it would just be GL and Flash. Also, I forgot to say it above, Klarion (BUM BUM BUM) The Witch Boy. YES! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AnimeToonFan Posted February 24, 2011 Report Share Posted February 24, 2011 Interesting last show. Kid Flash as Dr.Fate huh? Now I didn't see that coming! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
You Know Who Posted March 5, 2011 Report Share Posted March 5, 2011 "Downtime" Another awesome episode. Atlantis has never looked better and it was nice learning why Calder and not Garth was Aqualad. It was a treat to see the Aquaman and Flash families. My only real complaint is the scene with Miss Martian and Superboy, since the former is still annoying and the latter is still a dick. I suspect that Orm will come back as an antagonist to both Aquaman and Aqualad. Also didn't realize that Artemis was half-Asian. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delete Posted March 6, 2011 Report Share Posted March 6, 2011 My biggest complaint was how obvious it was that what's her name wasn't going to be into Aqualad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
