Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

The real reason DC isn't acknowledging Steph as Robin in the reboot: Tiny clones of me, assemble!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

The new DC is crisis free. Or something.

Young Justice: An episode with Captain Marvel, and The Brain, and Monsieur Mallah, and Tawky Tawny, should have been much more fun that it that, right?

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

Hmm. Finally saw last week's Young Justice. Blonde kid Artemis surprised me. I would have expected bleach.

Interesting episode. Seemed too short, which I guess means it was fast-paced. So now I wonder if Red Tornado was actually the mole. Unless they just realized Artemis was way too obvious and are trying to psych us out some.

Young Justice:

So, Evil League of Evil (because "The Light" is lame), was that Blue Beetle? If so, WTF?

I'm assuming scarface is Vandall Savage. We also had Luthor, Ra's AlGhul, Clarion Bum, Bum, Bum, the Witchboy and The Brain. Who else am I missing?

I'm beginning to wonder if the writer's goal is to have Superboy say "I hate monkeys" every episode for the rest of the season.

Also, Brent Spiner as The Joker! It was definitely a different take. Not sure I cared for it. Though I think it was more the writing than the voice.
