This show has been a huge disappointment. Every character doesn’t seem much like themselves. All the members seem to be expressing super negative attitudes for the most part.

Superboy is brooding and seems almost resentful. Robin comes off as immature, disrespectful of the others, and a loose cannon (I actually like the laugh thing though, it’s a bit Shadow-like). Kid Flash is a bit like himself, but heavily immature and even a little creepy with Miss Martian. Miss Martian comes off as having very little confidence and perhaps unintelligent as well. Aqualad seems to be a bit decent, but totally alien and aloof at the same time. Speedy is just a jerk.

All these guys seem opposite their typical personalities and it seems the cartoon only wants to show off teen angst and selfishness.

Young Justice was a super fun comic book and the kids were great friends and even seemed to become a family (including Red Tornado) as the series progressed. This version has sucked the joy out of these characters and shows what should be exceptional young people as spoiled, thoughtless, bickering brats.

Very disappointed overall.

The stylized animation I guess I can live with. I just wish they’d stop making the technology and the interiors look so unreal. I’m sure it’s a good show, though.

Artemis’ origin and possible reason for joining the team makes sense now, given that Sportsmaster is her father.

@Sha: People living on the streets with cable and internet access? Also I didn’t know that the homeless were so into Bane.

THIS EPISODE OF YOUNG JUSTICE PROVE WHY DC SUPERHERO CARTOON WILL BE A HIT. I CAN’T WAIT TO SEE OTHER DC HEROES AND VILLAIN THAT WILL POP UP REAL SOON. SPEEDY IS GREAT AS THE ANGRY HEROES WHO IS ANGRY AT HIS PARTNER. I JUST WISH ROBIN DIDN’T SOUND LIKE A JUNIOR JOKER. I CAN’T WAIT WHEN ARTEMIS SHOW AND SEE HER ORIGIN. WILL SUPERGIRL OR KRYPTO THE SUPER DOG APPEAR IN FUTURE SHOW. I CAN’T WAIT TO THE EPISODE WHERE SUPERMAN AND SUPERBOY MUST TEAM-UP TOGETHER AND WILL THE KENT FINALLY MEET SUPERBOY. GOOD LUCK TO THE FUTURE. YOUR TRULY CHARLES DAVID HASKELL

Marvel’s been doing a great job with their animated fare (me likey Avengers!) but DC with YJ is still showing why they’re ahead in the game.

This episode with Bane, for me, hit just the right notes!!

What a great, great time for superhero cartoons!

This is the second article in a row from Newsarama telling us to watch this show without telling us what time it’s on. That’s kind of important if you’d like us to actually watch it. The previous article didn’t even mention it was on Cartoon Network. Basic journalism, guys, help us out.
