Young Justice, which ran 2 seasons from 2011 – 2013 chronicled the adventures of DC’s sidekicks such as Robin, Superboy, Artemis, and Aqualad as they battled covert threats. Despite the shows fanbase, it was cancelled prematurely due to poor merchandise sales. Since then, fans have been vocal about wanting to see the series return, and with the series being shown on Netflix, more and more DC fans can see what the fuss is about.
With Young Justice returning, this could open the door for more fan-favorite shows to make a return, such as Firefly, Constantine, and Agent Carter.
We’re on the verge of counting down to revealing the next phase of this podcast. It was a natural evolution that we put even less work into the show than we did prior!
One of the goals behind the revamp was to perform shorter shows with a quicker turn around time. So this one is an hour still and two days late. Trust me, it gets better.
Cap, Zac, and Adam talk Lollipop Chainsaw, Young Justice, and Wreck it Ralph and then let the conversation turn to the debate about if Zangief or any of the original 8 Street Fighter II characters are “bad” guys.
The Young Justice toy line has come to an end, but with the second season currently on tv, I decided I need to buy these figures before they’re gone for good.
Here is a review of the deluxe Superboy and Artemis figures. Kinda disappointed that Superboy didn’t come in his more common jeans/shirt outfit. Artemis is spot on, though the hands could use some work.
Enjoy the video! Buy these toys before they’re gone! They look great with DCUC figures!
MattyCollector.com has posted their Cyber Monday ordering page here. There are a few whopper deals on there including as much as %50 off most available MOTU Classics figures. The Ghostbusters Ghost Trap has also come back in stock.

This post includes a press release as that will take you the rest of the day to read, but here are the basics…
Cartoon Network historically has had huge success with shows based on DC Comics characters (JLU, Batman Brave And The Bold) as well as Warners Bros Animation (Looney Toons, Ben 10), and so they’re ordering several new series as well as renewing some successes.
The hotly anticipated Green Lantern The Animated will follow in the footsteps that Batman The Animated series did in 1992 by bringing a character to the small screen following a big movie opening. Differing from previous DC animated presentations is that this GL series will be entirely computer animated, unlike the past 19 years of Batman, Superman, and other series.
Hal Jordan and the Green Lantern Corp will join the renewed Young Justice and Batman Brave and The Bold as part of the “DC Nation” block, which the press release implies may see other DC properties down the line. Safe bet on some of the DC direct to video movies over the last 3 years such as New Frontier and Under The Red Hood airing in these slots as well.
Thundercats is also now officially being announced as part of Cartoon Networks falls schedule from Warner Bros Animation. WB will also relaunch Looney Toons in a “contemporary” animated style. CN is renewing Ben 10 and Scooby Doo as well.
In related news, Cartoon Network has ordered a series based on the How To Train Your Dragon series of books and CG movie.
Rounding out the announcements: “LEGO Ninjago” which is a cartoon series based on ninjas made out of LEGO.
Telltale Games goes Back to the Future with it’s new five-part episodic game (and Michael J. Fox sound-alike), while Hasbro goes Back in Time with the Hub and new takes on its classic properties and cartoons.
