        I like the Timm stuff just fine and it deserves a high ranking, but I agree with Hector--Fleischer set the bar..and set it pretty high. Even the Timmy stuff owes its looks and flavour to the old Superman toon.

        I'm also a big fan of the Filmation Superman series, which had the fifties/sixties Superman down pat, and their DC superheros/Aquaman and Batman toons...if for no other reason than nostalgia.

          Hmmmm....

          You mean EVER? If so then Thundarr has it beat. For superhero cartoons specificly I'd hafta say the 90's Batman: The Aninmated Series (notably the first season or so,) probably has it beat. Less superheros but a little more depth.

          All told the Justice League cartoons kinda make me a little sad. They're good, but I don't think they SHOULD be a pinnacle. They should be the average. The animation's effective but stripped down and the writing's good but not too complex. There's no reason EVERY action cartoon couldn't be at least this good.

              I'd go with Justice League, Batman:TAS, and the Fleischer Superman cartoons as the best. However, Spider-Man and His Amazing Friends will always hold a special place for me.

                  You know...they should really do an old school Supes live-action flick...more powerful than a locomotive...and able to leap tall buildings with a single bound-type Supes (not so powerful, not so fast)...that would absolutely rule.

                          I do believe it is one of the all time, hands down, bar none animated Super Hero cartoon in the world. But it's not alone. Also in with it for me are the other Bruce Timm animated heroes. Batman: The Animated Series is now a revolutionary classic and Superman: The Animated Series deserves some praise as does Batman Beyond.

                          I am a child of the 70's, so I have a strong love and sense of nostalgia for the Filmation DC cartoons as well as the long running SuperFriends series and Ruby Spears works on Plastic Man and Superman. You can't beat the Fleisher Superman shows, I'll go along with that one. On the Marvel side, I have a fondness for most of the 90's cartoons as well as the 1967 SpiderMan, and the 1967 and 1978 renditions of the Fantastic Four. Back to DC for a moment, I especially love both Batman shows by Filmation and all SuperFriends shows from 1973 to 1985, but especially the All New SF Hour 1977 and the Challenge of the SF in 1978.

                          I also loved the classic G.I.JOE series from the 1980's as well as other action cartoons by Filmation like the Space Sentinels, Tarzan, the Super 7, The Lone Ranger, Zorro, Blackstar, and HeMan, not to mention the live and animated Shazam shows by Filmation.

                          In terms of non Super Heroes, I love the Looney Tunes, the Scooby Doo shows from 1969 to 1979. When they brought in Scrappy Doo, that totally ruined everything. Along with Scooby Doo and Dynomutt, I loved the Scooby ripoffs like Speed Buggy, and Jabberjaw and the Clue Club as well as the Laff a Lympics.

                          And for adult humor, I've enjoyed Beavis and Butt Head, some South Park on occasion, and Robot Chicken.

                          Those are my faves, but the animated Justice League (JLU) is among my top faves.

                          Cheers.
