How Artemis got started

[arbre_rieur]

Due to the monthly nature of comics, and possibly also due to the fact that the schedule for new episodes is a thing in flux, the Young Justice tie-in comic is really taking its time in catching up with the show. In the latest issue, #7, we finally reach the point where Artemis joins the cast, as we see the events that led up to her secretly helping the team against Amazo.












...which leads to her finding Robin, Kid Flash, and Superboy up against Amazo.

I'm not sure that's how child custody works . . .

So does this mean that Cheshire is Artemis' sister in this continuity?

So one of the two female characters' origin story isn't worth telling within the context of the actual show so it's just tossed away into a comic book for extra credit. It's like the makers of the show are trying to find reasons to exclude as many opportunities to let the female characters have a spotlight and put it into other mediums that everybody knows doesn't matter since it's the only thing that should matter is the series itself.

I can't wait for the series final where both Artemis and Miss Martian are seen only as mere filler support characters. After all, the series started out with two whole episodes with just the guys, so why wouldn't the series eventually be all about them in the end? This is almost as bad as waiting for the moment when Ahsoka dies in that overly drawn out Clone Wars series.

Words can not describe how happy I am to see that not only Artemis is the Artemis I thought she was but to see that Paula and Crusher still (kind of) love each other, no matter what has happened between them.
I have an irrational fondness for supervillain couples, especially those two.
They're just two normal people who fell in love with each other unconditionally, but "the life" (Hey, being a super-villain is a valid career choice in the DCU) got in their way.
They're trying to raise their daughter right but it's har with all the talents she has all the obligations she's inherited with them.

Basically what I'm saying is that I ship Tigress I and Sportsmaster for life and damn the haters.

So it's like Mia with Spoiler?

I thought she was a spy or something.

Anyone know what's up with the show, anyway? Greg Weisman said that several episodes are already in the can (done). But I mean...why aren't they being aired?

[wonderwomanhero]

I believe it's confirmed that one of them is going to die. Not quite sure who though. Hoping it's not Artemis. Perhaps they will pull the 'Black Guy Dies First' Trope and kill Aqualad?...hopefully not.

Pretty nice to see from this POV! :D

[shadowpsykie]

does this explain how Green Arrow met her?
