[QUOTE="Villano, post: 400591, member: 505"] Yeah. I mean, if they're doing a show that's basically Legion of Superheroes, why not just do Legion of Superheroes? I mean, it's not like the Teen Titans have some kind of name value to the general public. And it can't be the heroes because, aside from Robin, most people will never have heard of them. And a future Robin? If they wanted a tie in to Batman, why not do a cartoon of that future Justice League from Batman Beyond? I liked that group (although I've still never seen the first part of the Starro story). If they wanted to stick to teenage protaganists, they could have added some big names to Legion. I mean, there's alot of history there, like Laurel Kent, Superman's decendant. There you go, a new Supergirl. I don't know. I'm not too excited about this series. I haven't been all that impressed by Justice League. There seems to be something missing from it. To me, it doesn't measure up to the series which came before (Batman, Superman, and even Batman Beyond). I know that part of the reason I don't really care for it is J'onn J'onzz (Martian Manhunter). I like the character, don't get me wrong, but the writers have no idea what to do with him. Every episode includes a scene where J'onn (for God's sake, someone give him a superhero name!) grasps his head and collapses. He's superstrong, invulnerable, can fly, turn invisible, turn intangible, has heat vision, shapeshifting, and has telepathy. Let's face it, he's "Superman Plus". The writers have to include some dues ex machina to take him out in the middle of battles because there's no reason he wouldn't be able to take out all the bad guys himself. I'm sure that you could come up with some good ways to keep him from overwhelming everyone else on the screen, but it's easier to type "J'onn collapses to the ground". [/QUOTE]
