Professor Wayne posted:I'm nearly done with season 2, and there is a definite pattern of plots. Almost every episode is imposter Avengers, teaming up with villains, or a new character seems bad but then is good. What about the one character who seems good but then is bad?

Well finished EMH Season 2, overall it was pretty good and reminded me why I like Hank Pym so much (except when Dan Slott is writing him).

I'm working my way through season 2 on Netflix and I just watched the one where Wasp punches out the skrull Pym and was all, "That felt great!"

No, the funniest part of season two happens in the episode where the guy steals Ant Man's costume. At one point, Pym is describing what happens when you activate the suit. At the exact moment he explains that you keep the strength and speed of your full-sized self, the guy wearing Ant Man's suit throws an ant with a grunt of effort. He might possibly be the weakest person in the Marvel universe.

I think the first viewing some of us are just kind of off put at hearing a different animated Joker voice or something. After you shake it, you realize he does an amazing job.

Season 1 is out, and the first half of Season 2 is coming in January. The individual 3 discs that cover the first part of season 1. Now they're sold in one box containing all 3 discs, which is 12 episodes. From then on, it's half-season sets. Season 1 Part 2 ("Dangerous Secrets" 14 eps) Season 2 Part 1 ("Destiny Calling" 10 eps)

Like, I watched All Star Superman the other day and while it was mostly good the inclusion of Bar-El and Lilo seemed completely pointless.

E the Shaggy posted:Watching Under the Red Hood again. Yeah, once you adjust to something other than Hamill coming out of The Joker's mouth, you realize he does a really great job. His laugh ranged from dark and husky to manic abandon. I loved his take on it. It'll be interesting to see how Michael Emerson handles Frank Miller's quasi-effeminate Joker in The Dark Knight Returns, Part 2. I still maintain that the best direct-to-DVD DC release is Year One, but I really hope they keep the gravy train rolling and eventually give us The Killing Joke or The Long Halloween.

Amethyst seems a bit anime to me, but it still looks really good. Just about all the shorts they do with DC Nation have been REALLY fun.

It's nice to see that Anissa and Jenn exist somewhere. Also, she's texting Grace Choi! DC Nation is like the best, most adorable antidote to the stupid changes of the New 52.

404GoonNotFound posted:Wait what? Someone mind explaining this? Stephanie Brown (the blond girl in the purple shirt in today's episode) was Robin Mk.4 and Batgirl Mk.3 Her series (Batgirl Volume 3) was cancelled with the New 52 Relaunch a couple Augusts ago, and Batgirl Mk.1 (Barbara Gordon) returned to the role of Batgirl, and Stephanie has yet to appear in the relaunched continuity. Since then, two separate out-of-continuity digital-first comic books have had written Stephanie into their pages: first, as Nightwing in Smallville, which was inexplicably changed to Barbara Gordon, and second as a single-panel cameo in the Halloween issue of Li'l Gotham, which was altered so that her blond hair became black. The latter happened right around the same time as Cartoon Network put Young Justice on hiatus, so there was a lot of implausible-yet-infectious speculating that she'd be edited out via hair-color change again.

Chaltab posted:To be a bit less vague than TheHan Yeah, I know who Stephanie is (reason #8 I hate New 52), I guess I just missed the cameo due to being the first Saturday where I've gotten up before noon in over 3 months  Thanks for the extra info though, I heard something about a fuckup in Smallville but that Li'l Gotham bit is news to me. Anyway, back to the show itself, is it just me or was the Amethyst short like HALF the length of Thunder & Lightning? Goddammit DC, let me see more of Game Modder Gets Trapped In The Neverending Story: THE SERIES!

Finally got around to Superman vs. the Elite; easily the best DC animated feature I've watched so far. Lois was awesome and a half, the animation wasn't bargain-basement, and the opening titles were pretty boss. I also wasn't expecting that many on-screen civilian deaths! Up next: Superman/Shazam!
