We're already past that arc. It's easily in JLU territory now. In fact, the Atlantis and Dr Fate eps are better than most of the JLU run.
I mean the cadmus arc in JLU. Nothing in YJ has reached that level of complexity that was in that plot, nor have the characters, main or side been used as well as say The Question was. The Atlantis episode was great, the fate episode was boring, and overall the show so far has just been solid. Not great.krypt0nian said:

GREEN LANTERN: THE ANIMATED SERIES
Based upon the DC Comics super hero, Green Lantern: The Animated Series is an all-new CG animated action series from Warner Bros Animation and overseen by world-renowned producer, artist and animator Bruce Timm (Batman: The Animated Series, Justice League, Teen Titans, Batman Beyond, DC Universe original animated movies).
As Earth's Green Lantern, Hal Jordan is used to being in dangerous situations -- but he's never faced anything like this! Set at the farthest reaches of deep space, Green Lantern: The Animated Series finds Hal on the Guardian Frontier, where he must face down an invasion from by the Red Lantern Corps. Powered by pure rage, the evil Red Lanterns have sworn to destroy the Green Lantern Corps and everything they stand for. Dispatched with his friend and former drill sergeant -- the gruff, hulking alien Kilowog -- on the experimental spacecraft The Interceptor, Hal is soon joined by an all-new group of heroes on a mission to protect Guardian Space -- and the Green Lantern Corps itself!

In the last episode they aired, Beast Boy found a girl who was just like Terra but she didn't have any of Terra's memories. The show ended before we ever found out if it was her or what the hell was going on with that. Idk, it's been a while since I saw it, but I seem to remember the show just ending without any explanation and I assumed it was cancelled.

Totally disagree. The Cadmus arc was great. I've watched it more times than I can tell you, but there were so many filler eps in JLU. Good filler eps, but pretty much just let's see what charas we can stick together for one ep.
Nothing about the Fate episode was boring. It showed that they understand the DCU better than any animated show including the JLU, which was the pinnacle.
Let's just agree that JLU was fuckawesome.

I posted this in the questions thread, but no responses so hopefully you Cartoon Network viewers can help me.
So, I came across these unreleased Cartoon Network promo toys in a thrift store. I was able to identify most of the characters after some research but these 5 have alluded me. Any help into their names and shows they are on would be great. Thanks in advance.

It was a show that basically said, "There will be others that look just like this, but have nothing to do with it. Learn to let the past go."KingK said:

It's a short. A very funny and cute one. My son enjoyed it. When DC nation starts we should have a full on big OT about it.

Besides Young Justice >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Teen Titans.

I'm really not. I like what YJ brings to the table more. If Teen Titans aired alongside YJ I think TT's ratings would take a hit. I don't dislike the show, it's just when you stack it up against Young Justice... eh.

One is a team of annoying whiny angst teen version of adult supre heros who spend most of there time whinying and being emo and no matter what they do, even if the good guys beat the bad guys the evil light team wins
young justice.
The other has a great cast of characters who are really fun to watch interact with each other and has beast boy & cyborg which the other does not.
Parallax
best seen in the classic "Shadow of the Beast"
the titans were whiny as shit balls of angst as well. the writing and art styles are the major difference between the two, and at the moment, young justice is a quite a bit stronger in both regards. if you want a lighter series, then you pick the titans. if you want a bit more depth, then yj is your goal.
and legion is better than the titans is.
once again, the joker shouldnt be allowed to be that cute. ever.

Where we watching the same show? Teen Titans is leagues better than Young Justice and Connor has more than enough angst then the entire cast of TT.
Parallax
best seen in the classic "Shadow of the Beast"
beast boy, robin, and cyborg are all angsty too. and dont even get me started on raven.
