...And into the new stuff...

I caught the final episode of JLU earlier tonight and there were a few things I wanted to talk about. Since I haven't figured out how to use those nifty "Read More" links, you can safely assume that SPOILERS follow...

As far as final episodes go, that was pretty cool. So here were some of the things I liked, in no particular order:

• The sequence that showcased characters created by, or at least drawn by, Steve Ditko (Hawk & Dove, The Creeper, The Question, and Captain Atom).
• Giganta smoochin' on Flash. Funny as hell.
• I noticed, in the final "run out" that the heroes were organized like this, and again, I'm probably remembering this out of order:
  1. Solo heroes (folks like Metamorpho or B'Wana Beast who aren't commonly associated with a team in the DCU proper)
  2. JSA
  3. 7 Soldiers of Victory
  4. JL-Detroit
  5. JLI
  6. Black Canary/Green Arrow (although I have no idea why they were singled out like this)
  7. JLA/Big Seven
• Ice and Fire's transformation scene made me laugh.
• Superman's speech before he knocks the hell out of Darkseid.
• J'onn's return.
• Batman being the only person to avoid the Omega Beam.

I'll say this: Cartoon Network really doesn't seem like it knows what it's doing half the time. Between the way they gave this show the bum's rush and showing live-action films, along with a few other things that just make me shake my head, it doesn't seem like anyone's really driving the boat.

But what do I know? I'm just some goof with a keyboard...
