I liked the new episode (especially that Blue Beetle thought about talking to the golem, instead of just continue to fight it) and was pleasantly surprised how much they managed to fit into it. The only thing I found strange was that the Hall of Justice doesn't seem to have any kind of security system. If someone breaks in (or in this case out), shouldn't all available leaguers be notified?
Wasn't Wally's powers killing him? I think he had to stop running or else he would die. Being exposed to anti-matter during Crisis helped cure Wally, but he was left only able to run at roughly the speed of sound.
The reasoning I've seen is that since Wally received his powers as a kid, when he underwent puberty, his body couldn't handle the powers, and using them was slowly killing him. You can read more about Wally here.
And as far as comparing his speed to the others in the DCU, this was right after the Crisis, which depowered most of the heroes.

I wonder if this was the "dead cats" reference
Oh, right. I must've just been thinking "Reach" and went with the "r" word.
Yeah, the Black Beetle sounds like there's at least a person under there, right? The shadowy figure in this episode seemed completely cold and referred to people as "meat."
the Competitor's
Considering Intergang (who work for Apokolips) wasn't on the Light's pay role I doubt it.
About the only thing I enjoyed was the introduction of Apache Chief and the idea of an all girls team as the centerpiece of the episode--the rest was kinda "meh"--the steroetypical one note mean boyfriend, the pointless subplot with Jamie that spun its wheels, nothing much happened on Bialya.
Overall this season is off to a disappointing and slow start.

I don't think Jaime's subplot was pointless. It was a rather chilling depiction of just how violent the Scarab is and how difficult it is for Jaime to keep it under control.
Okay what the hell is Roy doing in this picture because whatever it is, his face is screaming that its not right.
Sniffing a cat.
I'm more concerned with the red aura around his head.
Is that his speedy sense?
A 6th sense that helps him locate speed?

Another definite winner. It was nice to have a closeup look at Jaime's home life, there's a reason I think he's become such a well-established character for being so new to DC.
The stuff in Bialya was fun, Wonder Girl continues to be great and Nightwing's "There's... no right way to answer that" when Batgirl asks him about justifying an all-girls team was funny. I wonder what the Bilayans were digging up down below? The Boom Tubes make me think the kidnapees' destination is Apokalips, but the fact that Tye was one of them also suggests the Competitor (if it's the Reach) because of the connection to Beetle.
Nothing much?
That's one psychopathic little suit of armor he's got. Should I hold out hope for "Potential theological implications"?

Why does/would Jamie think that Ted "invented/built" the Scarab?
