Tonight's ep focused on Green Arrow and his doubts about joining the League.
Through circumstance, he ends up along for the ride when Green Lantern, Capt. Atom and Supergirl are dispatched to deal with a crisis.
By the end, he has saved the day, but is still unsure about joining the League-- until he spots Black Canary (in original fishnets outfit, YES!!!) in the locker room.
TONS of 2nd and 3rd tier characters around-- this is going to RULE!
I was especially impressed with Supergirl this episode.
This may very well end up being THE DC 'TOON of fall time and is at least a decade overdue.

I was sorry they didn't start off with a multi-parter. After all the anticipation it's too bad we didn't get to see more of the new recruits.
I thought Green Arrow and Capt Atom sounded a bit young, but they looked pretty good (though I would've preferred if they gave Capt Atom blue boots). Interesting to see them give Capt Atom the "Wildfire" treatment, making him energy in a containment suit rather than a metallic "shell". But of course the good capt does what he does best (get himself blown to a million bits ).

Nice to see a few other cameos that hadn't been released (yes, KP - Zatanna's there too in the fishnet outfit) like Steel,Orion, Crimson Avenger, Vibe and the other Steel (JLA Detroit).
One guy I didn't recognize was blonde guy with the shoulder holster talking to Supergirl. Who's he??

I was pretty disappointed by Capt Atom's portrayal here, actually, but I realize for the storyline's sake it had to be Ollie that got the rods inserted...

E-gads! And they said a Legion cartoon would be confusing with "so many characters."
I plan on checking a few episodes out for some personal favorite characters (Zatanna! Black Canary! Huntress!), though for the most part I'll probably be a parital watcher as not everyone on the roster grabs me yet.
Makes you wonder what the kids or solely fans of the JL cartoon are thinking about this new show/season if they've never read the comic books before. It has to be somewhat of a shock, going from seven to seventy. One's confusion though is another's reward for years and years of reading though!

It was HEAVEN, I tells ya!
I, for one, am looking forward to the action figure line that will result from this.

What network is this on? Sounds like it could be fun to watch (if I remember )

Cartoon Network. It was on at 8:30 PM on the east coast. Don't know if it'll stick to that time, but it's a safe bet. It'll probably be rerun at other times as well.
