Legion World Forums LEGION COMPANION Dr. Gym'll's Cultural Rarities JL UNLIMITED KICKS TOTAL FREAKIN' ASS

Methinks JLU is getting a little top-heavy in the hero department - how about the producers a "let's put all the main players names in a hat and pick out a small group of Leaguers" to carry off the episode?

or maybe it's Tara, not Mara??

I believe there was a Mara in the Warlord universe, Supes

Nice to see Joe Kubert's art being showcased in JLU's 2nd episode. ( or is that Alex Toth's?)

Animation-wise?

*giggle* loved to see Wonder Woman's spinning! Devil Ray - is that Black Manta or what? Killer Frost looks like she's a grunge/dead. yeah I am watching JLU and doing computer work at the same time.

Isnt that a tad distracting, tho?

nah not really. TV is next to my computer so perfect for me to do two things at the same time.

That would be a good name for you if you ever decided to go drag - "Amber Dextrous"

can't wait to see the Flash's Rogue Gallery next week! Capt Boomering, new Trickster, the Top, Mirror Master, and one more I can't remember - with the spotlighting on Flash and Orion.

well I am ambidexterous.

In everything?

you can say that! Ha....oh about your asking me if it's an animation of viking Prince...I don't think so...it's more like cutting the picture out of comics books then superimposed on cartoon....hard for me to describe....like cut-and-paste - can anyone explain better than me on Jon Viking Prince's?

Like Ralph Bakshi did on the Lord of the Rings cartoon-movie years back?

not sure about that since it s the first time I have seen an actual picture coming from comics books being pasted into the cartoon show. so i don't have a right answer for that.

No, my answer wasnt right either...it suddenly dawned on me that Marvel had allowed several of their characters (Thor, Captain America, Sub-Mariner, etc) to be used in a cartoon format way back in 1966 (i think).

The unique animation in each feature reminded me of how the production staff must have "cut-and-paste" scenes/stories adapted from the actual comics themselves. I hope that's what you were thinking of, mate

maybe maybe could be like that one. when will you get to watch JLU episodes?

I get Cartoon Network on cable on Australian TV, the Unlimited spin-off is still running the first season (after Hawkgirl's expulsion, that is)

But i havent had much info about it except through surfing at the TV Tome website - thats a cool place to look up stuff on live-action super-heroics as well as the animated counterpart. Have you heard of it, dude?

Yeah, it was basically just cut and paste pics from the comic book over a bit of background animation. I'm pretty sure that was Joe Kubert artwork for the Viking Prince sequences.

Too bad they didn't animate it like they did for those old Marvel cartoons. That was really horrible animation (the old Marvel 'toons) but it was really Jack Kirby and Steve Ditko stuff they did it to. Wierd but cool at the same time.

Superboy and myself were just chatting about it, Yellow Kid...That Marvel Super-Heroes cartoon show was terrible in a way, but at least the stories were taken directly from the comics themselves (more or less)...

LAM - you have to wait for another year for JLU's 3rd season? But anyway, the 2nd season of JLU gets better and better! Vixen kicks a big time butt there.

Superboy, I dunno what Foxtel (the local cable network) are going to do with their cartoon programming, i expect we Aussies will catch up in (as you just said) another couple of years...

BTW does Vixen look the same as she did when she was a member of the Detroit branch of the JLA or has her look and costume been redesigned?

redesigned.....hmmm looks like Gina Torres and her hair is short and nice....her costume is the same with some little additions....like token, bracelets.

Gina Torres - didn't she play Cleopatra in an episode of "Xena, Warrior Princess" once?

My comments on the new eps:

The 1st one: The Gamara cameo was funny as was the Supergirl Convention. I liked that both Stargirl and STRIPE played big parts. I'm glad Countney seemed to get along better with Kara at the end. Good to see Silver Banshee.

The 2nd one: The whole plotline with the Viking Prince was keen. It was nice seeing Giganta, and Killer Frost again. I liked how Diana and Martian Manhunters interactions. I wish Mr Terrific had a bigger part then Ollie. I'm disappointed that it seems that MM seems to have left the Justice League at the moment. I hope that doesn't last to long. I'm guessing it might lead into a standalone ep with him in his dectective persona.
