Favorite Justice League/JLU "guest stars"?

What are some of our favorite "also appearing" characters in the JL/JLU run? That is, minor/alternate Leaguers or non-League characters the stars encounter during the story...

My favorite "guestings" are the DC Western heroes ("Bat" Lash, El Diablo, Jonah Hex, and "Pow Wow" Smith) in "Once and Future Thing Pt 1" and the Blackhawks and Easy Company from "The Savage Time".
 
^Too bad we didn't have Beetle to complete the UnDynamic Duo... :)

One I forgot, in this case a "minor" league member: Bwanna Beast in "This Little Piggy".
 
Green Lanterns are always good. The New Gods...eh...I could do without them. The League usually handled Darkseid on their own anyways.
 
Booster Gold and Skeets. One of the only times I've bought an action figure based on just one episode. I wish we'd seen more of them, but their one starring appearance was genius. Bwanna Beast talking like Rocky Balboa was funny.
 
^Yeah...did you ever listen to the commentary track for that ep? It's a riot all on it's own.

The Booster ep even got a friend of mine who thinks Booster is a first-class moron to feel a little sorry for him.
 
Yup, really fun commentary indeed. I like how they pointed out that Batman was showing Wonder Woman more affection as a pig than he did when she was her normal self. :lol: I didn't realize Bwanna Beast was supposed to sound like Stallone until they mentioned it too, and that made the episode even more entertaining.

I don't know if villains count for the question of this thread, but if they do, I loved Deadshot in "Task Force X". It's always great to hear Michael Rosenbaum's Kevin Spacey impression and Deadshot was supercool in that episode, with his one-liners and flirting with Plastique.

A lot of people overlook the episode or dismiss it, but it's really fun, and the commentary track pointed out a lot of things I never would have realized (like the whole Bewitched homage bit).

I liked Timm's comment (paraphrasing) that they realized going in that if they were going to do a farce, they had to go "all in" and do it. Trying to do anything else and it wouldn't've worked.

I would have loved to see that Joker scene too...

That was technically his 2nd appearance. His first was in the S1 two-parter w/Aquaman (he was the assassin).
