« Wonderfully nostalgic »

For a few years there was a significant effort to bring decent storytelling and characterization to the realm of animated superheroes; Justice League and its successor, along with the earlier Batman and Superman animated series, were high points of the period. Sadly, these days we're sliding deeper into the 'oh, the humanity' and endless angst aspects.

Instead of declining into the foppish triteness of earlier efforts (Superfriends, et al), the creators made an effort to inject some measure of 'real' personality into the Leaguers, and occasionally even into the "villains" (though happily they did not allow the latter to get out of hand in this season). These heroes generally would not be embarrassing to be around (maybe even kind of cool to hang with). Likeable, generally. So unlike the earlier Hanna-Barbera style buffoons.

If there was one down point for me, it was the excessive 'politeness' and 'correctness' of Superman. He sounded too much like a guidance counselor at a politically correct college at first, though things improved as the season progressed. .:. Rating: 5 / 5

 

« "Comic Geek's" Dream »

As a fan of the art, story and legends behind the major figures of the DC comic universe this animated series was a more than competent transition from page to screen. It was a very welcome series to enable one to see familiar characters that have already been seen in movies and tv (Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, Flash) as well as those which are just as popular on page but who may not occupy such ready familiarity outside the actual comic book medium (Green Lantern, Martian Manhunter, Hawkgirl). The art style is very modern and an upward evolution from the first Batman animated series circa 1990s. Themes tend to be a bit mature and not as "sugar coated" as in decades gone by, but this is also a positive modern enhancement for audiences who welcome a "thinking" storyline. .:.
