Young Justice - General Discussion

[Estro-gen X]

Why is Robin so short? He should at least be as built as connor.

Superbat, the Wonder woman characters are out of bounds because the contract with the Marstons mean Wonder Woman or Wonder Girl have to be the stars of the project. JLU got around it because Wonder Woman was a lead of 7. Donna Troy however never made it to Teen Titans.

The JL character models look similar to the ones from Crisis On Two Earths - especially Martian Manhunter and Wonder Woman.

The show looks pretty cool too. I'll definitely be tuning in to watch.

I am very very excited for this!!!!!!!!

[MartianRogue]

the reason why the JusticeLeague models look so much like the JusticeLeagueCrisisOnTwoEarths models is because they have the same person working on this series as that film. Very cool I think .

Also its been anounced that BruceGreenwood will be providing the voice of Batman.

I'm getting kind of excited about this now... I think it's really interesting that they've actually established this verse as one of the official universes in DC's multiverse. That's fantastic to me.

[j03superbat]

I find it a little odd, it being "officially" Earth-16 of the multiverse. So that means this show is going to take place in one of DC's fifty-two universes. So DC has essentially said, "We only have 52 universes. That's it. Just fifty-two." And one of the universes is one that's not that different from Earth-0. Granted, Connor and Dick are the same age, and the new Aqualad is the same age as them and whatnot, but each time they do a show they always have their own little tweaks to continuity. The Batman and Batman: The Animated Series, for example, hit a lot of the same beats as in the comics, but adjusted certain things to happen at different times - it's understandable.

Still, to declare this its own entire universe - of DC's multiverse - of which there ONLY consists 52 universes?

I don't know if this is making any sense, but if DC is going to limit themselves to 52 universes, they should make each one pretty distinct from one another. It's funny - back when they brought it back in '06, I remember being upset that they had. Now I just wish they had brought back the infinite multiverse instead of restricting themselves.

[MartianRogue]

i actually really dig the fact that this is part of one of the official continuitys

[Superboy2]

I think they should have more around 100 universes. Makes more sense.

[MartianRogue]

The leader of the team will be Aqualad.

[Superboy2]

Aqualad is the leader? Seems odd when you have Superboy and Robin there.

[MartianRogue]

i think they said that there is a reason for the choice in the pilot. i really dig the decision of making Aqualad the leader. from everything ive heard he has some really complex stuff going on with his character. looking forward to it.

Kelly Hu has also been cast on the show in an unkown role.

[MartianRogue]

Aqualad really is coming into focus in the comics; http://dcu.blog.dccomics.com/2010/08...ian-manhunter/
