Didn't they say the second time skip would be like 30 years? I'm glad it stopped here if that's the case.

I remember 40 years but cant find a link. Greg could have edited his answer because in one post he said how far ahead was unspecified. Knowing how long doesn't give context. The story might have called for it.

 

[Rafa=FedKilla]

Time skip would mean new characters and new toys to sell. Fuck Mattel for destroying my chances of a Lagoon Boy figure.

 

[Silkworm]

Man this episode was so good. Sad to see that they made Black Manta look like a chump. Sportmaster kick his ass. He really loves his son though, which is a bummer.

Yeah, I thought Black Manta would have put up more of a fight. Nightwing obviously thinks Blue Beetle is not on the "trustworthy" list anymore so will be interesting to see how he'll deal with that.

 

[Khezu]

I'm rooting for Aqualad to betray the team and make his dad proud.

It's really hard to root for the good guys.

Yeah this Black Manta doesn't seem like that bad of a guy.

 

[Winterfang]

Yeah I actually felt bad for Manta when he was getting his ass kick by sportmaster and Tigress help him. He immediately ran away to save his son, he wasn't feeling like his ego got hurt or anger at Sportmaster or anything. You can tell that he only had one thing in mind, possibly the reason why he wasn't find that well, he wanted a way out of the fight.

Then his happiness when his son came back. I was like damn, Aqualad don't betray your father man, he loves you.

Runaways rating spike

No toy sales.

So Blue aligns himself with the Reach to gain the trust of humanity... Then what? Renounce the team?

 

[abundant]

The Reach are controlling Blue. They (Reach) are making Blue into a big Hero, to gain everyone's trust. Thus making it easier to takeover earth.

 

[ReiGun]

Dick Grayson about go the fuck off. Hit the music.

 

[Parallax]

Dick Grayson about go the fuck off. Hit the music.

Its like you can hear him yell "you motherfuckers"

 

[TheKaeptain]

its not always the ratings (unless it fucking terrible) its the merchandise.

The toys were absolutely shit.

 

[Rafa=FedKilla]

It's Mattel. They make overpriced, piece of shit toys. They are still using builds from the 80s with this line. Thirty dollars for two three inch figures.

 

[Infinite Justice]

The toys were absolutely shit.

if those toys from mcdonalds are any indication then i agree lol


i would assume that meant more than just toys though (or politics of a someone to shutdown a rival by saying the shit that rival is in charge of is failing )

 

[jobber]

So you're telling me Nightwing didn't see Beetle's interviews 2 episodes ago when he turned heel?

 

[Penguin]

So you're telling me Nightwing didn't see Beetle's interviews 2 episodes ago when he turned heel?

I believe they are playing with time.. A lot of this events happen concurrently.

 

[Router]

Did they even explain the first time skip? I remember being confused as fuck.

 

[ThatObviousUser]

Man Toonami would kill for those ratings. Bleach is the only one to regularly get above a mil...

Toonami should snap up YJ. Make up for having Thundercats and damned GXP.

 

[MartyStu]

Aqualad is the only member of the team that isn't a failure.

Without a doubt. He just gets more awesome!

GXP is so unbearably bad...

Sports family :bow:

 

[Khezu]

Sports family :bow:

The entire show should just be the Mantas vs the Sportsfamily.

Everyone else is terrible and boring.

 

[Silkworm]

What about the Batman "family"? They've been featured before so why not add them in the mix

 

[ReiGun]

Nightwing is the only Bat family member kinda on top of things in this.

You could just have him fighting Deathstroke every episode.

They've never really written Sportsmaster as badass as that, Jade is used to getting her share of it and to have them both utterly humiliate the Mantas was amazing

 

[Jorok Goldblade]

Sports family :bow:

After this series wraps, somebody needs to cut a "The Crocks" trailer in the style of one of those premium cable historical power family shows like the Tudors or the Borgias.

 

[Avixph]

Wouldn't this be the Teen Titans show all over again?

 

[ReiGun]

Wouldn't this be the Teen Titans show all over again?

That was Robin vs Deathstroke. This would be Nightwing vs Deathstroke.

Totally different.

 

[Avixph]

That was Robin vs Deathstroke. This would be Nightwing vs Deathstroke.

Totally different.

It will still be Dick Grayson vs. Slade Wilson.

 

[PaulExcellent]

I really wish this wasn't going to be cancelled...
Started the first season again, and I'm definitely a fan.

 

[ReiGun]

It will still be Dick Grayson vs. Slade Wilson.

Totally...Different.

Trust me on this.

 

[Avixph]

Totally...Different.

Trust me on this.

Okay sure.

 

[Infinite Justice]

Sports family :bow:

YESSSSSSS!!!!!


Wally and Red Arrow chose well

Dick Grayson about go the fuck off. Hit the music.

Its like you can hear him yell "you motherfuckers"

i really hope so because Nightwing really needs to get on this

 

[VeeP]

Man, Nightwing is about to FSU. I'm hoping we'll get to see Wally again.

GXP is so unbearably bad...

For a second I thought you were talking about IGPX.

 

[Ezalc]

For a second I thought you were talking about IGPX.

Me too. Was I the only one that thought it was interesting?

 

[MartyStu]

Yeah this Black Manta doesn't seem like that bad of a guy.

I hope Kaldur lets him down easy.

 

[Phoenician_Viking]

Why?

MLP hit 4 million viewers near the end of the first season. Cartoon network couldn't ask for more far as viewership is concerned. Ratings held strong in spite of the show being repeatedly ripped for the airwaves.

It was an inside job.

Because i honestly thought that super heroes are much more popular than that.

 

[Napoleonthechimp]

I didn't know this show was getting cancelled

We're only going to be left with shitty ultimate spider-man and a passable green lantern series.

If only they would leave us with even that

Dick Grayson about go the fuck off. Hit the music.

Bruce would be proud of that Batglare.

Dick ain't gonna have any of this bullshit anymore.

 

[MisterNegative]

Totally...Different.

Trust me on this.

Totally different fights but the results would be the same

nightwing getting bodied, hard.

 

[Boss Doggie]

Too bad Kaldur and Artemis' cover is blown the minute Psimon wakes up from his coma. They should have extracted when they had the chance.

Wasn't he put in a permanent coma?

Also wouldn't Queen Bee notice that by now or won't her telepathy work on comms?

 

[jobber]

Manta is really a cool dude. He provides his crew with coffee. He probably gives them paid vacation too.

I bet he has an awesome paid internship program.

Meh Dick would probably do a lot better than Bruce. Since he is not as predictable and moves different than Bruce.

 

[pants]

Apart from that nasty habit to eye-laser explode his staff, he's pretty okay

 

[jobber]

Manta being a super criminal and all, I wonder how he finances his submarine, pays his crew, and provides coffee.

Doesn't seem like a robbing banks kind of organization.

 

[Winterfang]

Manta is really a cool dude. He provides his crew with coffee. He probably gives them paid vacation too.

His crew is also pretty cool. They are fodder but they seem smart and also extremely loyal so the benefits must be excellent. Like a Villa or something after you retire.
