About time, dammit.

Nowhere Man 12-24-2012 01:41 AM

Awesome.

Shadow 12-24-2012 02:10 AM

....HOLY SHIT MONGOL!

Kalyx triaD 12-24-2012 02:24 AM

Static Shock! Hell yeah.

Kalyx triaD 12-25-2012 10:56 AM

Found this nugget YouTube mining. The ending is totally worth it.

I don't know why, but it always strikes me as incredibly weird to hear Hamill's Joker swearing. I guess it's just because he never did in the show.

Anybody listen to Fatman on Batman? Really enjoy the podcast. The Scott Snyder interview was pretty interesting.

Kalyx triaD 12-31-2012 09:11 AM

Been gorging on Justice League Unlimited episodes. Anybody have favorite episodes and moments from the entire DC Animated Universe line?

Batman: TAS/Batman: TNA
Superman: TAS
Batman Beyond
Static Shock
Project ZETA
Justice League/Justice League Unlimited

McLegend 12-31-2012 12:39 PM

Batman TAS: Heart of Ice

The New Batman adventures: Over the edge

Superman TAS: Legacy... World's Finest also gets a mention

Batman Beyond: Out of the Past

Justice League: The entire Cadmus arc... That's the highest point of the entire DCAU.

Nowhere Man 12-31-2012 12:39 PM

God, I loved the DCAU. So many kickass moments out of those shows.

Some of my favorites:

Batman the Animated Series:

Batman's dream-sequence after being poisoned by Scarecrow:
http://youtu.be/BW1jU_rex8Y

The Joker's eulogy when he thinks Batman's dead:
http://youtu.be/Ld0uIhst3TA

Killer Croc's "Almost Got Him" story:
http://youtu.be/HEdg4glpCkg

The final confrontation with the Joker (okay, this is technically from the Batman Beyond movie, but it uses characters from BTAS):
http://youtu.be/_JEa71aS3oU

Superman The Animated Series:

Clark spills the beans to Lois, kinda sorta:
http://youtu.be/gbQBI1ZMugo

Basically the entire episode of "Brave New Metropolis:"
http://youtu.be/-SMMK8wtwiQ

Superman's final battle with Darkseid:
http://youtu.be/ZVzGyqSbGew

Justice League/Unlimited:

The Question confronts Lex Luthor, only to find out why you never piss off Lex Luthor:
http://youtu.be/9iizKYUNY3I

Shining Knight gets his ass handed to him, keeps fighting anyway:
http://youtu.be/YRiOxDy-HcI

Superman and Captain Marvel slug it out and destroy an entire city:
http://youtu.be/6BJ1-trrgqc

Justice League is the pinnacle of comic book cartoons. I could say the usual Batman TAS nod but there's just too many moments in that era of the DCAU that made me happy to be born in this era of human history to see them. Not even joking.

Lock Jaw 12-31-2012 02:15 PM

Yeah. Was recently surprised when I saw that CW still plays Justice League as part of its Saturday Morning Lineup.... but then I was like "Well, actually... that is pretty much the height of superhero cartoons, so I guess it makes sense"

This is pretty much the sweetest, most honest and relatable thing I've seen in a while.

Krimzon7 12-31-2012 08:36 PM

Every time I see clark now, I think of this picture:

I DON'T SHIP THEM


That's still really sweet though. But no. That ship will not sail.

McLegend 12-31-2012 10:22 PM

I just read

Batman Year One
Dark Victory
Hush

I was slighty disappointed with Batman Year one. I thought it was going to be different and delve more into his trainning, and pre-Batman things. Still good.

Dark Victory I really liked. I enjoyed the Robin orgin, and it was good mystery. Not as good as Long Halloween.

Hush was really good. I really liked the interaction between Batman and Catwoman. Also a good mystery, and the ultimate revel was a little confusing, but it still worked it terms of the story.

I think Hush was my favorite.

The Diana's B-Day/Love Triangle arc is likely going to blow up by the 100th episode.

Nah I mean in general. Even in mainline DCNU comics. Just not a fan of Diana and Clark together.

I am a Bruce/Diana shipper, though.

DCAU handled that in a cute way.

Nowhere Man 01-01-2013 01:14 AM

Which reminds me of another one of the best moments in the DCAU:

Kalyx triaD 01-01-2013 01:19 AM

Oh yeah that was awesome. And Animal Man!

Yeah, I loved their exchanges and general relationship in the DCAU. This Little Piggy is easily one of JLU's sweetest episodes. I dunno. Something about them together, or even not together but still obviously into each other, gels better with me than the alternative. But eh. It's not something that makes or breaks comics for me really.

Dunno. Looks like one of those terrible "meme face"s.

Fignuts 01-01-2013 03:08 AM

Calvin and Hobbes will always be the most awesome, heartwarming comic ever to me, but I gotta say, this "lil' justice league" is some pretty classy stuff.

Kalyx triaD 01-01-2013 04:38 AM

I have more interest reading that than the actual DCnU Justice League comic.

Triple Naitch 01-01-2013 11:22 AM

I don't get it.

Kalyx triaD 01-01-2013 01:36 PM

DC characters as kids.

Triple Naitch 01-01-2013 02:32 PM

Oh ok

Damian Rey 01-01-2013 05:05 PM

Hush wasn't as good the second time I read it. Year One was awesome, but it's a Gordon story first and foremost.

Dark Victory was a solid follow up to the Long Halloween.

Lock Jaw 01-01-2013 05:52 PM

Dang. Hate it when a series gets canceled and is left with dangling plotlines.

slik 01-01-2013 07:39 PM

Wonder when they will introduce Mongul into the new 52. Probably not anytime soon since Darkseid is still fairly recent and Mongul is a bit of a rip-off.

Lock Jaw 01-01-2013 08:12 PM

Well... he was last seen being trapped into the Yellow Power Battery or something by Sinestro... and since Green Lantern got pretty much no reboot... that could very well still be in continuity.

mitchables 01-01-2013 08:23 PM

What got cancelled?

Also, Scott Lobdell's off Red Hood and the Outlaws. About time.

Swamp Thing volume 3 back in 2001. :shifty:


Also, too bad Red Hood and the Outlaws ISN'T canceled.

Oh :D

Well the dude that's taking over is apparently a Snyder protege, so it might actually turn around. Here's hoping, anyway.

Either way, Lobdell just needs to go, period. He does terrible work. His Lois Lane is truly fucking awful.
