  • If JLU had one more season, what would you want the season to be like?

    Earth's seven greatest heroes have joined forces to tackle the onslaught of a new age of villains.As a team they have to overcome the clashes of personalities and their own at times oversized egos which was at times a easier said than done. hide show

    When i heard of this show i tried to fight my urge to groan and say oh no another super nice super friends team but its far from.Continuing from BTAS and STAS this show adds to the story of the icons superman and batman and tells of their adventures with the flash ,wonderwoman,green laturn and the others and incorperates them quite well.At times it feels so one diminsional with superman and the green lanturn who are imo the most flat characters on the show.However overall the show is pretty good ,its fast and has alot of action to keep the newbs intrested while satisfying the die hard fans.

    Best art and design of any super-heroes i've ever seen in an animation is found in this show. Great Storyline and awesome soundtracks and voices. Cheers! hide show

    Found out about this show quite a few years ago while i was watching Cartoon Network. Soon after i had all Seasons on DVD and started devouring those seasons like there was no tomorrow. And i was so soo impressed with everything in this show, how easily everything connects perfectly. This show should be awarded or something, it's just bloody brilliant. Congratulations to the producers and writers and of course the ones that have lent their voices and bring to life the awesome heroes, super-heroes and meta-humans present throughout this whole show. This show keeps you seated, and i speak for myself when i say this, i always waited for the nest episode, never dull a moment. Can't see a reason why anybody wouldn't watch this, unless truly doesn't like this world, but someone somewhere likes at least one hero or villain, and trust me when i say this this show's got them all (well 95% of them for sure). A great show i recommend, and hoping there will be another as good as this one. Cheers!

    9.5 Superb

    Spectacular! hide show

    Justice League is fantastic! so many heroes and villains all rolled into one show. and there is so much characterization. i especially love when an episode is devoted to one character or to a pair of characters. you get the feel that you really know every character that you see on the show. the episodes are unique with a kind of plot that you rarely see anywhere else. the only real complaint i have for this show is that you dont get to see enough of alot of the characters. almost everybody in the league has had about one or two episodes devoted entirely to them and that is a great aproach most of the time but it also leaves you wanting more. its often frustrating...

    I really liked this show for many reasons. One of the reasons was because of the great variety of characters in it. hide show

    There were alot of superheros in this show. There are alot of characters that I saw in this show that I never heard of before. It was interesting to see who these characters were and what type of powers they had. And of corse it had the major characters like Superman, Wonder Woman, Batman, and The Flash. But it was fun to see characters like Green Arrow, Black Canary, Zatana, and other lesser known characters get a chance to shine in this series. I really enjoyed it. And the best part of all was that there were no annoying characters like in the old superfriends cartoons. Characters like Wendy and Marvin or Zan and Jayna. I couldn't stand those characters. The stories were much better in this version also. The old superfriends series was silly sometimes. Justice League Unlimited was more serious and the characters were alot better.

    Aargh! I still need to get the DVDs for this. hide show

    I have fond memories of the SuperFriends but JLU makes me go "Super who" sometimes. Well worth the wait just because they got it right. This series is EPIC to the extreme! I am not sure if they used all the characters from the JLA comics but it sure as spit seems like it. I love how they use so many characters in so many episodes and not just the core cast. Watching this show with friends is a lots of fun just to see who can ID which characters first. I would go a little further and say what team they are from like "He's from the JSA! He's from the Seven Soldiers of Victory! He's from the Freedom Fighters!" Ah good times, good times.
