JLA had the worst intro of any of the DCAU shows.
Superman and Wonder Woman's sections are dumb. But the rest are either fine or Dope. I really like Batman, Flash, and Martian Manhunter in particular. Also, when they get to the Green Lantern part you can totally sing along "And Green Lantern's Mighty Ring!" with the music.

The redesign from BTAS to STAS/the later Batman stuff really, really amped up the cheesecake and it never went away.

The closest would be Superman always charging ahead and immediately getting blasted back.

There's also Flash always tripping over dumb poo poo.

I remember when Toonami was a separate channel, it had this series of "hero fact files" which it ran during advertisements, basically ran down the stats for the characters on the cartoons they had (mainly DCAU and a couple of anime series). Martian Manhunter's psychic powers were actually listed as one of his weaknesses because they got him in trouble so much in early Justice League.

Flash's weakness was listed as "the ladies".

It's the later line, "I had to get my power suit" that really cemented Clancy Brown's legacy as the best Luthor in all media

I think he also voices a Bill O'Reilly type


Man I forgot this show described Flash's skills as a sexual lover, and by inaction, Lex's as well.
