Young Justice, Green Lantern return January 5th - Page 3

I know I said this back in October, but this was a kickass episode. So glad to have Young Justice (and Green Lantern, though I don't watch myself) on the air!

Argh........! DirecTV did not have these episodes listed as new so they weren't recorded on my DVR this morning. Good thing Cartoon Network repeats them Sunday morning.

davejames · January 6 2013, 07:50 PM

Yeah I had to manually set mine to record too.

Christopher · January 6 2013, 07:55 PM

Hm, interesting. My DVR did record them automatically. (Plus I actually watched them live. Radical, I know, but...)

So on Green Lantern....

^I hope not. I get the impression that nothing much is left of that universe.

Yeah, I was thinking of Alan Scott too, but the implication from Hal dialogue was that the GL was from our universe, but traveled to the steam world and then came back.
As for the episodes, I thought they were both great. Lots of very interesting developments in YL.
A fun and interesting fact for Underworld fans, Black Beetle was voiced by Kevin Grevioux, who co-created the UW franchise and played the Lycan Raze in the 1st and 3rd movies.

I did love both episodes. I liked the subtle reference to Alan Scott in "Steam Lantern" and I'm glad they at least used a different Earth in their arc with the Anti-Monitor. I doubt we'll see a full-fledged "Crisis" storyline, which is fine, but it was a nice nod, nonetheless.

YJ was good, it just suffered, moreso than GL from the break between episodes.

sojourner · January 7 2013, 02:08 AM

I wish they were using the Dominion from the original Invasion storyline instead of The Reach.

I don't think they ever said it was a version of Earth. I was figuring it was more like one of those cartoon/comics/'60s-SFTV alien worlds that just coincidentally happen to duplicate a historical Earth culture or a variation thereon.

See, Hal thinks that Alan Scott was a normal Green Lantern that started in Oa and went to the Anti-Matter universe. GLTAS

But Alan Scott is FROM the Anti-Matter universe. Hal is actually operating off of false hope. Saint Walker would have been proud. GLTAS

Mr. Adventure · January 7 2013, 08:01 AM

Amethyst and Black Lightning were fun on DC Nation.

I don't usually watch GL but gave Steam Lantern a spin. Not bad, a bit standard with the whole bad guy didn't realize he'd gone too far but a little twist with Steam Lantern's lie. The whole steampunk thing was fun though.

Oh, ok.

So did anyone think for a single second that Aqualad was actually evil?

davejames · January 8 2013, 05:32 AM

Absolutely loved the GL ep. Opening up the rupture to envelope the planet and bring it into our universe was such an inspired solution, and pretty cool to watch too.

Gotham Central Vice Admiral Location: Under the Globe with Clark	Re: Young Justice, Green Lantern return January 5th So on Green Lantern.... that the Steam Lantern world is in the same dimension as Earth 2? Given that Hal has never heard of a lantern with a cape, Alan would have to be from a parallel Earth. __________________ Well maybe I'm the faggot America. I'm not a part of a redneck agenda.
