Comments (28)
A few of the new Young Justice members were in season one. Actually, all except Blue Beetle, Wonder Girl, and the Tim Drake Robin.
again, these are all things they can infer on their own by watching the show, and even if they want to discover plot points from the companion comic with their own research. What fun is there to be hand fed all of this stuff?? Like people have mentioned, the episodes allude to alot of this stuff, they can be considered spoilers, because seeing these allusions and trying to make sense of them on their own (even if they get it wrong at first) is part of the fun of watching the story unfold...
Ok time to inform them. If any mods would be willing to relay this info to the crew, that would be appreciated. None of this is a spoiler for the plot or development of our characters, I've watched this show more times than I can count so I know what is and isn't a spoiler. Ok so, lets get started. The first thing is that, just in case this is ever brought up, Nightwing is not in a relationship with Zatanna. There was a short lived comic that ran alongside the show that revealed that the Dick Grayson from YJ shared a trait with his mainstream counterpart, being that he is a huge playboy like Bruce. It's revealed that he has dated/slept with Zatanna, Rocket, and Batgirl, but is currently single. Next, the only new member of the League besides Zatanna & Rocket is Jefferson Pierce, aka Black Lightning. Moving on, the little aliens are called Kroloteans, which is pronounced like Crow-low-tay-uns. Next, G. Gordon Godfrey is the DC equivalent of J. Jonah Jameson, hence why their names are similar. Next, it was revealed in this episode that M'gann learned how to phase like J'onn, just in case you guys missed it. Lastly, the new members of the team. Jaime Reyes, aka Blue Beetle, Garfield Logan, aka Beast Boy (we've already met Garfield in season one, can't believe you guys didn't recognize his voice), La'gann, aka Lagoon Boy (he had a small cameo in season one during the episode that took place in Atlantis), Karen Beecher, aka Bumblebee (she was featured in season one multiple times, as she was a student at the high school that M'gann and Connor attended and she was on the cheerleading squad), Mal Duncan (he is the guy that was communicating with Gamma Squad over the radio, and he is Karen's boyfriend. He also went to the same high school and was featured numerous times in season one), Cassie Sandsamark, aka Wonder Girl, Barbara Gordon, aka Batgirl (we saw Barbara in a few episodes in season one, mainly during when Artemis arrived at Gotham Academy for the first time and the episodes Failsafe and when the adults and children were separated), & and finally, Tim Drake, aka Robin. Yes the new Robin is Tim Drake, who in the comics is the third Robin. As this is never explicitly said in season 2, yes, Jason Todd existed in this universe and was on the team, and is presumed dead. He does not appear in season 2 alive at any point, but my fingers are crossed that he will reappear in season 3 as Red Hood.
While it's true these may not be spoilers, the crew has said that they like to find out and figure out these things on their own.
Dick got bigger!
Friendly reminder that YJ is being taken off Netflix on Aug 1 so if anyone wants to rewatch/binge, nows the time
What why?!
My same reaction during the beginning. <3
Knocking over Aqualad huh? Foreshadowing + 100
Some of the "new" young justice heroes actually showed up in last season if you can find them like Beast Boy and Batgirl
Stealth Mode!!! LMAO
Atomic Man!! ...... Captain Atom T.T He's cool guys.
I love and hate Season 2. I love it because it's the perfect show to throw newbies to the DCU into the deep end with characters and mythology, and as a comic reader I'm geeking out hard on each episode. Plus, you get all the great story telling and character development you got from season 1, but on the other hand there are so many big story lines and everything matters to the point where it can be overwhelming, and a bit much at times, but by the end of the season you know it was well worth it.
When the show was on the air one of the show runners posted information on the universe that didn't make it into the show itself. This isn't a spoiler. Justice League in this show have a chairman that they elect every year rather than one permanent leader who makes all the decisions. In season 1 Batman was the chairman of the Justice League and season 2 Captain Atom (silver guy with an atom on his chest) is the chairman. The chairman itself doesn't seem to have full authority on everything, just when they run missions. For the most part the League runs by democracy.
OMG I was soooooooo taken back by Megan and Connor when I first saw this!!!
Lagoon boy is from Atlantis, he is actually in season one ep 8 as kind of an easteregg. So you have seen him before. :)
The Tim Curry guy is G. Gordon Godfrey, he is a real treat this season. In comics he is known as Glorious Godfrey.
Lagoon boy was in the episode when Aqualad went back to Alantis in season 1. He was one of the background characters. When he was revealed to be Miss Martians boyfriend he got a lot of hate, and I admit that I did too, if only because it got in the way of the Supermartian ship and because everyone else was doing it. Hopefully blindwave grow to like him.
Its neptunes beard guys cause neptune underwater God I think
Neptunes beard is probably like saying Jesus Tap-Dancing Christ
Glad to see the Blind Wave crew digging into Invasion. Some things to clarify and make note of. The silvery guy with the red symbol on his chest is "Captain Atom" not "Atomic Man". I get that it's confusing having Captain Atom (atomic powers) and The Atom (shrinking powers) on the same team XD The guy who got torn apart by Lobo is Tseng, the Secretary General of the United Nations, and also the former leader of South Rhelasia. South and North Rhelasia were the countries meant to be a parody of North and South Korea, in that episode with Red Arrow and Aqualad trying to stop Cheshire and Lex Luthor. Nice bit of continuity there.
I hope you guys are watching this on Disk, or some other service, because Netflix says they will only have the series until Aug 1st
