Justice... At Last

Don't you just hate it when you really like something, and just wish that the creators had made a sequel, and then you find out that they had - and you weren't aware of it for more than six months! That was my situation a short time ago. Fortunately, though, my anger was short-lived and I got on to enjoying the redemption of my T.V. series drought. Just what am I rambling on about? "Young Justice" of course! It's not really a sequel to the "Justice League" and "Justice League Unlimited" series, but it is for me.

According to the producers of the show, "Young Justice" takes place on Earth-16. This is an Earth from one of the many alternate universes. That's why it's not really a sequel. But I feel like it is because of the spirit of the show. True, the story focuses on different characters and that obviously means that the group dynamics are different, but the atmosphere of the series remains intact. Batman is still slightly brooding - yet intuitive; Superman is still stubborn and headstrong; and the new stars bring their own quirks and trademark characteristics to the table. The writing and action sequences are so compelling (reminiscent of the older shows) that the person who told me about the show actually thought that it was a continuation of the older shows (in the same universe). If you haven't watched any episodes yet... Then I don't know why you're still reading this.
