Fun episode, although I have a bit of a hard time not thinking of Dick Grayson/Robin/Nightwing when I hear Hal speak. Loren Lester's voice is very distinctive.
The Wonder Woman opener was the highlight of course. James Tucker and company GET the DCU, unlike the folks actually running the comics.
Young Justice...I like it, but I think I figured out why it's not quite clicking with me. It's trying way too hard to be sophisticated, adult and edgy. Shadowy conspiracy groups, real-world analogs to warring nations, political intrigue, etc. But unfortunately it's just kind of dull. JLU did all of this and still managed to excite kids and adults alike. The twist at the end was telegraphed a mile away (I mean, who DIDN'T see that coming). This as opposed the famous JLU reveal where Luthor had merged with Brainiac. I don't think ANYONE saw that coming.
The only character I really like is M'gann. The rest are kind of "meh". The inclusion of old JLA and Titan sideckick characters was nice though. I'd like to see more of this.
I wonder if the creators are kind of hamstrung by the previous JLU and Teen Titans series. In concept, YJ is basically an amalgam of the two series. I think they are trying really hard to NOT duplicate those shows, and in doing so, are maybe taking the characters and material in directions that just don't suit them as well.
I think another part of the problem is B&B is so fun, and YJ is so dour. It's like reading a Bob Haney B&B and then washing it down with Identity Crisis or something.
