Oh cool. I've been looking forward to seeing the Question. He's in the ads so I've been wonderingabout him.

I wonder if we should do a JLU watch-thread with lots of spoiler warnings?

Gotta say The Question was definitely the best part of this episode. Ollie had a few smirk moments, but the plot just kinda left me flat. Although I think it has long term potential if they run with the set up through the rest of the season.

Ha ha
The Question is great! Boy bands are part of a global conspiracy. (heh) This guy's more paranoid than Batman.

Pretty good ep but I wish General Hardcastle fired that bullet into Ollie. That would have made it much better. JLU Power Girl aka Galatea (Tea) was interesting. If your a Supergirl fan you should definately watch this ep.

No kidding.
I jumped up and shouted "Power Girl! Yes!"
I was wrong...or was I?...but it was cool anyway.
Nice rack too but not up to Wally Wood's proportions.

- a guy can hope can't he? -

I just remembered what I thought was kind of odd in this ep.

They let Evil PowerGirl Gala(Tea) date?

**GGGAAAHHH!!!!**** I missed it!! The Question's one of my all-time favs and I missed it -- both times!! (it runs twice over the weekend right?) It doesn't run again during the week does it??

It runs 3 times a week, so you'll have once more chance to see it. It goes brand new ep Saturday night, a repeat late afternoon Sunday, & a repeat of the same ep early the next Saturday.

Cool beans! I"m settin up the VCR right now!

I get that last repeat on Saturday at noon after the Teen Titans. Check your Tv Guide and adjust for your time zone and you're set.

- if you start seeing swirling rainbow patterned colored lights and some guy in a tattered purple robe shows up then you've done something wrong with your timer, set your clock to the wrong hour (remember Twin Peaks?), or your meta-gene kicked in -
Push reset immediately!

Well, they let her date so she could give info to the reporter (who wasn't much of a reporter since he didn't confirm that information with another source, apparently).

Of course, there's also the implication that their dating was more than casual, since the reporter knew about her waking up with nightmares.

Great ep tonight, Green Lantern! Squeaky wheels space-rawk!

I finally saw last weeks' ep earlier today and it was great! Interesting spin on "Power Girl" (hey, her origin's pretty foggy in current continuity anyway), and I loved the Question! It's a new and interesting interpretation of the character, much more Rorshach than before, but quite enjoyable - he had the best lines. The CGI robot and helicopters bothered me though - they can create a CGI that looks like cell animation, so why make it look modeled and completely discongruous with the characters?

It was surprising this was so closely tied to the previous series - I hope the followup to this will be shown this season.

Regarding tonight's Booster Gold episode, it was enjoyable, but mostly for the Mordru battle - I was pleasantly surprised they went with the old school version and the Batman/Superman/Wonder Woman "Combined JLAer" was a fun bit, as were all the cameos.

Yeah, I spotted Booster and started looking for his Legion flight ring.
Then moments later I'm shouting "Mordru!" In the old flat topped hat even. Sweet.

Yeah, can't find too many villains with winged fez's anymore can ya?

I hear that. It seems the fez went out of fashion for bad guys with the end of WWII.

So in one episode we get two half baked Legion tie-ins to the JLU (even though Booster wasn't wearing a flight ring) I'm definitely down for more of that.

This one was working my pause button, that's for sure.

Not being a huge fan of Booster Gold, I kept wanting to see and hear more of the larger battle.

I liked Booster here more than I have in his last couple of appearances in comics. I really wish they'd drawn in the Legion flight ring, though... or mentioned the 31st century in connection with Mordru, somehow (esp. since he's wearing *that* look... though I guess he isn't really connected *to* the Legion yet...).

I thought the last scene, with Booster kissing the lady scientist, while a lone Elongated Man looked on... or walked by? somewhat off-putting, in light of IDENTITY CRISIS.

I enjoyed the walking black hole guy (Chunk?)... esp. the encounter with the magically-animated building. That was fun. So was Skeets... at least in this small dose.

CAMEO ROLL CALL: Star and S.T.R.I.P.E., Captain Atom, Hawk, Dove, Fire, Ice, Vigilante... I know there were others in addition to the 'speaking parts' for Booster Gold and Elongated Man.

this episode totaly ROCKED!!!! cameos gallor and Booster Gold getting treated like the Roodney Dangerfield of the JLA. hey it was even cool to see Skeets. the "dissing" of Elongated Man was kind of cold but funny and it proved that even in the 21 century that Mordru is a threat not to be taken lightly. <font size="2">although i still have a problem taking anyone wearing a winged fez very seriously!!!</font s>
i gotta say that so far this new series has not dissapointed me, wayto go JLU!!!!

Once I got past my Legion fan boy-ness (seeing Modru, looking for the flight ring, trying to find any other legion "easter eggs") and into the meat of the episode, I was pretty pleased.

How can you not root for the "Green Lantern" in this episode? Probably my second favorite episode of the season after the turned-into-kids one.

The only drawback is that since Mordru is obviously a very serious enemy (since so many Leaguers were needed to fight him), I wish we could have seen more of the battle.

Oh well.

I loved they way they handled Booster, and seeing the return of Skeets was great..

And i don't know about you guys, but seeing a 7 foot tall, all-powerful wizard with a winged fez is pretty scary!! I'm not gonna tell 'im he can't wear it...

Did ya see the 'Composite Man'?? Nice Legion nod... sure wish we got to see the flight ring though...

Are you talking about the half Superman-half Batman with the Wonder Woman voice? I'm not so sure that is a nod to Legiondom. I think (and I'm no comics historian here) that the Composite Man is actually a Legion take/update on a World's Finest story that features the Composite Superman. It happened way before the Legion's Composite Durlan.

The Silver Age Composite Man was also tied into the Legion. He got his powers through some incident involving Superman's collection of Legionnaire statues. I think he was the janitor in the Superman museum and some alien hit the statue with rays that gave him all the Legionnaire's powers.

I thought it was a really fun episode. "We've already got one stretchy guy."

Booster & Skeets made a great comedy duo in this ep. Is it just me or did Elongated Man come off as kind of a jerk?
