I enjoyed the art for this series of issues and therefore in this book a great deal. It is more realistic than any other art has been (collector comic books) for the Superman/Batman series of books and comics to date.

The Comic Book is one of America’s unsung contribution to culture.

Justice League Unlimited - Season Two (DC Comics Classic Collection)

In the final 13 episodes of Justice League Unlimited, Grodd recruits Lex Luthor, Sinestro, Bizarro, Giganta, and hordes of other villains to form the Legion of Doom, leading to numerous action-packed episodes of villains fighting the superheroes of the expanded JLU. The core members of the original series–Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, Martian Manhunter, Hawkgirl, Flash, and Green Lantern–are supplemented by such heroes as Green Arrow, Black Canary, Supergirl, Red Tornado, and Mister Terrific. But even waves of super-beings would be a bore if the stories weren’t compelling and well-thought-out, and dashed with humor. It’s the respect for the viewer’s intelligence that elevates JLU beyond a kids’ series to arguably the best animated-superhero show ever.

During the season, Hawkgirl meets Katar Hol, Hawkman, who claims that he and Hawkgirl are the resurrection of centuries-ago lovers, which throws a wrench into her developing relationship with Green Lantern (”Shadow of the Hawk,” “Ancient History”). Flash fights a rogue’s gallery of his arch enemies alongside Batman and Orion (”Flash and Substance”), Luthor switches brains with the Flash in “The Great Brain Robbery” (inside joke: Michael Rosenbaum is the voice of Flash, but plays Lex Luthor in the series Smallville) , and Luthor’s and Grodd’s struggle for dominance of the Legion of Doom comes to a head in the final two-parter, which leads to an unlikely partnership against the ultimate supervillain. The series also dips into other characters and realms of DC comic-book lore, such as the Legion of Super-Heroes (”Far from Home”), Deadman (”Dead Reckoning”), the Seven Soldiers of Victory (”Patriot Act”), Birds of Prey (”Grudge Match”), and Mike Grell’s Warlord (”Chaos at the Earth’s Core”). In the bonus features, the series creators discuss JLU’s ongoing Cadmus story line, there’s a music-only track of the series’ final episode, and the creators do a 30-minute on-screen commentary talking about three late-season episodes. –David Horiuchi

Batman Beyond - Return of the Joker (The Original Uncut Version)

Some diehard Batfans have been slow to warm to the animated series Batman Beyond even though it was created by the same team responsible for the excellent Batman cartoon of the early ’90s. The Dark Knight should be a brooding avenger in a noir-nightmare Gotham City, the purists argue, not some smart-aleck teen four decades in the future, with jet packs, invisibility shields, and other sci-fi gizmos loaned him by an elderly Bruce Wayne (voiced, excellently as always, by Kevin Conroy, his stony bass given a raspy hint of old age), now confined to hobbling about on a cane and monitoring his protg’s activities from the Batcave. Between its respectful reexamination of the “tortured hero” mythos and its sleek, anime-inspired look, this feature-length movie should go a long way toward quieting their complaints. Of course, it doesn’t hurt that they’ve brought back the most legendary figure in the Rogues Gallery (voiced by Mark Hamill, deliciously deranged), but exactly how and why the Joker has managed to turn up 40 years after his last meeting with Batman still as youthful and diabolical as ever is explained not only logically but terrifyingly as well. The secret behind his arrival is perhaps the saddest, grimmest twist any purported “kids’ show” has dared to attempt. (Parents may well want to preview this tape before screening it for the very young.) Once again, Warner Brothers’ cartoon Batman has outshone all the live-action films, never allowing the thrilling action set pieces or flashes of wry humor to drown out the drama, even tragedy, of the all-too-human superheroes. –Bruce Reid
