Redmenace Posted June 26, 2003 Report Share Posted June 26, 2003 Thank you soooo much for the heads up. Sorry to hear about the further wait till October but any JL is very welcome. Can I infer Darkseid is involved in Twilight of the gods? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes and I've seen elsewhere that Bruce Timm who produced both shows hints that "Superman's brooding doubts" that served as a catalyst for the formation of JL comes to head as he returns full circle to confront Darkseid. It should be quite an evening for Supe and Darkseid fans alike. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GestaltBennie Posted June 26, 2003 Report Share Posted June 26, 2003 "Legacy" and "Apokcolips Now" are two of the best Superman stories ever and worth seeing on their own. Word from Hong Kong (where JL Season 2 is currently airing) has been very favorable to "Twilight", so I'm looking forward to it.

Redmenace Posted June 26, 2003 Report Share Posted June 26, 2003 I love Darkseid, unconditionally, and Superman but a confrontation involving Darkseid's behind the scenes intrigue matched against Batman's detective skills has me chomping at the bit. What's the story with Apocalypse and New genesis, do they exist in the DC Universe or in some tangential space all their own? I wonder if the Green Lantern Corp is aware of Darkseid. You'd think they'd must be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackSword Posted June 26, 2003 Report Share Posted June 26, 2003 In the comics Martian Manhunter and Darkseid had a history as well. I doubt they will bring that into the cartoon as Darkseid is more of a Superman adversary. The entire fight between Superman and Darkseid in Legacy was great. Apokalypse Now was also one of my favorite Superman episodes, especially Dan Turpin throwing a rock at Darkseid. Definitaly looking forward to a new Justice League cartoon. Too bad the wait for anymore episodes will be until October. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Sarcastic Posted June 26, 2003 Report Share Posted June 26, 2003 I'm waiting for an episode with Captain Marvel. The creators of the JL keep promissing. I think I'm in for a really long wait. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's a list of second season episodes from Pazsaz Entertainment Network : Twilight Of The Gods, Part 1 (Originally Aired 7/5/2003) Twilight Of The Gods, Part 2 (Originally Aired 7/12/2003) Only A Dream, Part 1 Only A Dream, Part 2 Tabula Rasa, Part 1 Tabula Rasa, Part 2 Maid Of Honor, Part 1 Maid Of Honor, Part 2 Hearts And Minds, Part 1 Hearts And Minds, Part 2 A Better World, Part 1 A Better World, Part 2 The Terror Beyond, Part 1 The Terror Beyond, Part 2 Eclipsed, Part 1 Eclipsed, Part 2 Hereafter, Part 1 Hereafter, Part 2 The Secret Society, Part 1 The Secret Society, Part 2 Comfort And Joy Wild Card, Part 1 Wild Card, Part 2 Not being the Big Red Cheese's No. 1 fan, I can't tell if any of these will feature him just from the title alone.

GestaltBennie Posted June 26, 2003 Report Share Posted June 26, 2003 I hadn't heard of the Big Red Cheese scheduled for any eps this season. From what I've heard, "Tabula Rasa" is an Amazo episode, "Only A Dream" is a Dr. Destiny episode. And it's probably safe to bet that "Eclipsed" is their Eclipso episode.

I wonder if the Green Lantern Corp is aware of Darkseid. You'd think they'd must be. I am far from being a DC continuity nut, but as far as I know Apocalypse and New Genesis are in fact part of the DC universe. Darkseid and the GL corp were known to each other, but he is the legitimate ruler of his world and knew about their yellow vulnerability. I think there is an out of continuity story where they tried to unseat him, but he had his minions painted yellow and had their weapons adjusted to fire yellow beams. It was not pretty.

JmOz Posted June 26, 2003 Report Share Posted June 26, 2003 Appolilips and New Genesis, are part of the "Forth world" a alternate dimmension type of thing. However both worlds have access to Boom Tubes a device that lets them travel to earth... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hermit Posted June 26, 2003 Report Share Posted June 26, 2003 Argh, the waiting. They've put things off so long I don't even watch the reruns anymore. I'll give it another chance, but these 4 plus month pauses drive me nuts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbcowboy Posted June 26, 2003 Report Share Posted June 26, 2003 I read an interview with one of the writers and it either said or strongly implied that the new season was starting in July. Made this announcment that it'll only be a 1 hr special very, very disappointing. They mentioned that it's been something like a year and a half since the old episodes and talked about how much better the stories would be because of the extra time spent on them. Frankly I felt the first season was excellent. I thought they also mentioned that they would have fewer guest heroes this season since the JLA has enough members with plenty of story opportunity. But, I see that the Teen Titans will start next month on Cartoon Network. Not sure how good that show will be based on the little clips and commercials they've shown.

Scott Bennie A few more guesses (based on other info I've heard about the upcoming season). Comfort and Joy - Christmas special Wild Card - Joker and Harley Hearts and Minds - Despero? John D.

Not sure how good that show will be based on the little clips and commercials they've shown. Teen Titans, while also a Bruce Timm show, is marketed at (and thus written for) younger audiences. As such, I plan to watch it but my expectations are tempered. At the very least, it'll give me that "superhero cartoon" fix I seem to so desperately need until October when JL season 2 starts.

I'd assumed it was one of those shows that went for a season or two and went away. Aren't the episodes like 2 years old now? I have no knowledge that it's being made or not being made.

BarryB Posted July 2, 2003 Report Share Posted July 2, 2003 I'm recording the episodes. My 5-year-old daughter is so into the Justice League. It's great. She plays Wonder Woman frequently. I just wish there was JL t-shirts or hats with *female* members on them. I only find kids ones with the male members of the League. I guess they assume only boys like superheroes.

I have no knowledge that it's being made or not being made] Apparently there were 4 episodes remaining in the current season and they were going to be shown about the time the X2 movie came out. They also were supposed to be renewed for another season. The last 4 have never shown up. The WB web site sucks and ther is no info there. Does anyone know more?
