Young Justice #1
Feb. 18th, 2011 12:45 pm
This is actually the second issue of the series, as a #0 came out last month. Interestingly, this issue's written by Art Baltazar and Franco, the team on TINY TITANS and BILLY BATSON. I guess they're DC's go-to guys for all-ages stuff these days?
Superboy's alone in Mount Justice, on his first day living there, when he hears the footsteps of another.


From off-panel, someone fires poisoned darts at the two of them, and Snapper goes down.

Date: 2011-02-18 09:41 pm (UTC)But I feel like they should have saved Joker for the cartoon, like at the season finale. Way to blow your load on the first issue. I suppose he could be a ghost too.

Date: 2011-02-18 09:41 pm (UTC)The overall concept and core cast of characters is intriguing, especially since it feels a bit like Young Justice Elite, but I quickly got sick with how they kept recycling the same motif where the team can't get along with each other, which jeopardizes their mission, but then they eventually pull together and act like they've learned the value of teamwork, only to forget it next episode.
Last weeks episode, Infiltrator felt like a step in the right direction though. And since we have a full house now, I'm hoping there will be less in-fighting and more focus on adventuring and relationship developments.
On another note, I was pretty surprised that Artemis is Green Arrow's protege. Considering her name, I was expecting her to be a younger version of the Amazonian Artemis when she was announced way back in production. Does this mean she's really Mia then?
