Justice League Unlimited

Is anyone else following this series on Toonami?

It's really good. Every episode deals with different members of the Justice League. There are now dozens of members in the group, so you get episodes dedicated to some of the more obscure DC characters. The Question (Voiced by Jeffrey Combs) is a particularly interesting character that they have used in a good few episodes.

There is also a very interesting arc plot running in the background about a government conspiracy to destroy the Justice League. You can really tell it's all building up to something really big.

It even takes continuity from the older Justice League cartoon... mostly the episode where Hawk Girl's people invaded the Earth, alot of people are still suspicious of Hawk Girl as a result.

Anyway... it's a great cartoon series and well worth a look... it does have one or two fairly weak episodes though.

I've only seen a couple of episodes. To be honest I didn't find it all too different from the original Justice League cartoon, which I wasn't big into. Although it was certainly interesting to see Batman and Batman of the Future in the same cartoon.

Ha.. yes.. there was an episode where they traveled forward into the future to the Gotham from Batman Beyond (Batman of the Future).

Actually.. it was a bit disappointing as Terry McGuinness wasn't given an awful lot to do... There was a good scene with Old Bruce Wayne and Batman though.

the final episode gets a huge thumbs up for me...

it has NOTHING to do with justice league...it ties up the batman of the future cartoon which i thought was ace...the only link (in story) to justice league is the government conspiracy that led up to the previous episodes finale is in it.

also i'm happy that

they gave Flash the last big fight of the series..it was actually really cool

never liked superman. IF you dont like superman watch this, it rightly makes him into an asshole. If your a batman fan...watch it cause he's great it.

monkeyfudge

Yeah. It was great to see them actually put The Flash to some use for a change.

And yes.. Superman is an asshole...

Have you ever seen this website?

BlitzKrieg

How many seasons were there of the original series?
Looking at www.tv.com they only have Justice League Unlimited listed and that it's 5 seasons long. I'm going to assume they have lumped the original in under this name too.
Looking at the episode titles season 1 and 2 on tv.com are the original series.
What season is JLU? 3 or 4?

BlitzKrieg

justice league unlimited went for 2 seasons i think...

Makaveli

Yeah after a bit of poking around there are four seasons in total.
Justice League Season 1 & 2
Justice League Unlimited Season 1 & 2

Also, looks like there will be a JLU Season 3.
