Animated Series: Young Justice (Invasion) Thread

[SAIYANS]

Season one was compromised of:
- Robin (Grayson the youngest member at 13 but most experienced)
- Miss Martian
- Aqualad
- Kid Flash
- Super Boy
- Rocket
- Zatana
- Artemis
- Red Arrow (the cademus labs clone as Speedy is prisoner)
- Wolf

Check out the two part season ender where they take on the Justice League

Now, this past Satuday season two began. There was a five year leap. The team now consists of:
- Nightwing (18 year old Grayson and leader who refused to join the Justice League)
- Batgirl (Gordon who serves as the leader of Beta squad)
- Robin (Drake who leads Gamma squad despite being inexperienced)
- Wonder Girl
- Super Boy (decided to stick with Grayson over joining the League)
- Miss Martian (decided to stick with Grayson as well)
- Lagoon Boy
- Blue Beetle
- Wolf
- Beast Boy (Miss Martians blood brother)

As it stands Rocket and Zatana became official full time Justice League members. Aqualad (always said he would be done when Grayson came of age to take real leadership), Artemis, and Kid Flash aren't on the team anymore which will have to be explained. Like wise they have to explain Red Arrow in his search for Speedy.

So anyone follow the two seasons? what are your thoughts on the character development or presentation? Are you also going to buy the video game?

Seriously guys, no love? Check out the trailer. I may have to post the latest episode to peak some interests

The latest episode had the Bat, Super, Wonder, and Aqua family working together. The bat fanatics who were a fan of Wayne, Drake, Grayson, and Gordon in TAS would love it especially with how they didn't need to say a word to work in a perfect pattern

I'll buy the videogame, I'll play almost anything in videogame form.

The concept seems interesting and the animation looks good, although I'm not familiar with 90% of that cast (not that that is a deal breaker, but you know).

Also, is the cast based off the recent DC re-boot?

 

[SAIYANS]

The 52? Some of them are. Aqualad for example is an all new character made for the show over the comic version and they had legal issues with Wonder Girl at first so they used another adaptation of her.

They are doing the Blue Bettle - Reach comic arc sort of, or at least hinting at it this season.

Here's a sample of the last episode

I think my kids would probably like this show more than me. However, they like to see anything that involves Justice League or Spiderman. Heck, I cannot tell you how many shows I have on my DVR of these types of shows for the rainy days!

 

[SAIYANS]

Probably so. I grew up on Super Friends and then Justice League, so I love to watch them off the DVR wo commercials.

I still says its a DC nerd dream show, as this is a preview image from the new episode. The debut of Impulse is about to happen and we get the Flash family on screen together
