Wow really? I should re-watched that.
what the what?? Wow. Ok, well I haven't watched any of the old seasons since they aired.

yeah Penguin is right - for most of S2 she was undercover and was the GOAT yj hero

latest


Is there some Static Shock on this?

he is on the team, but right now (3 eps in) the main team is focused a lot more on his mentor, Black Lightning

I hope Nightwing becomes the Batman of the league this season. We've had several heroes using the same identity already(looking at you Green Lanterns), it's time. Jeff's line to Bruce about him making Batman Inc. makes me think it could happen

Damn things get real by the end of episode 3.

I also didn't notice any real drop in animation quality.

The opening and closing themes are very ominous. Guessing Apokolips will play a large role this season.

Great decision to drop 3 episodes. Episode 3 will have people talking.

So is there any indication that this series will drop on international Netflix's? I don't think Canada gets the DC Universe service

Watched the episodes, dropping three at once was a great idea, just one at a time would've been too cliffhangery and disappointing but this worked well.

The new team is good. Everyone is likable and Geoforce is going to have a hell of an arc with Terra's inevitably evil return. Good riddance to Miss Martian, she was really becoming a monster in S2.

Poor Black Lightning is apparently dealing with kids and pods wherever he goes. My only problem with him is he's got the same voice actor as Kaldur so it's a little confusing when he's off screen.

We haven't seen Oracle yet? I guess there's going to be some kind of twist there.

Fight scenes/animation are a little weaker but the storytelling is still strong and the show is dark as fuck now.

Probably cause she's been paralyzed in the 2 years since the last time we saw her in the beginning of episode 1?
oh whoops I deleted the next part of the line there. I was thinking that not actually seeing her meant there would be a twist beyond the normal paralysis storyline because why would they hide that? My guess is that she's an AI.

Khary doesn't seem to have a lot of range so when he doesn't have to raise his voice the best he can seem to do for BL is "old Cyborg". It's my only gripe thus far.

Her not having a speaking role so far is pretty suspicious.

Has Cassandra Cain shown up in the first three episodes?

Eh? We heard her VA, Alyson Stoner, speak as her in the first episode. Her not speaking in the other two is likely because of the union rules concerning how many voice actors you can have per episode more than anything.

Somewhere.
Damn, this season is not holding back. Episode 3 was especially nuts with

That girl getting "killed" and then later that brother getting shot.

Opening and ending are really interesting too. The opening is so eerie while the ending is so peaceful. Overall this is a great start.

So given the whole
UN oversight thing
and the appearance of
Kaizen Gamorrah
, might we end up seeing
Stormwatch and/or The Authority
this season?

You know what I love about this show? The world feels so connected and lived in. I hope the MCU can feel like this one day (I'd would have said the DCEU but *pff* that's never gonna happen).

This show is the perfected DC Universe.
This is my perfect DCU and aside from Superboy leaning towards his edgier iteration I'd say it's an objectively very good DCU.

Yeah I said it on here a thousand times but the DC films should have leaned on the relative household knowledge people had from the shows and movies and just made their setting a more lived in one where everyone had been established for years.

Show has been missed and boy did it deliver. DC really likes it dark and hell so do I. I'm loving it.

I know that this is the season 3 thread, but I went back to rewatch seasons 1 and 2 cause clearly I forgot a lot of things about the plot. On S1E10, and I am glad this show is back with a new season and it got me on a rewatch. I love the cycle back when it was a giant sentient metallic ball.

How many characters does Steven Blum voice in this show? I swear I must've heard him voice 2 characters:
Count Vertigo and a mook.

It feels like the production team never disbanded. These first 3 episodes were gut wrenching in so many different ways. Meta trafficking sucks and ruins families.

I like that halo in this series is middle eastern :3

Also that was totally themyscyrian tech with the purple healing ray on episode 1.

So the Terra in this is the same one from the other animated movie right?

The vibe of this show is so heavy now. I don't dislike it but it sure does feel different from the previous seasons.

Murdering and kidnapping children and all this guilt from Black lightning and all the info drops and references to character who've joined and left, it's a lot for 3 episodes lol.

Paternity leave is great - wife is at the gym, baby sleeping on my chest after her bottle & 1 episode down.

I'm loving the 3 at a time drops.

Chemistry between team members in this show is off the charts - They're Always On Point!
