Does anyone know how the tie-in comics are doing?

I would hate this as a season ender, but it feels doubly weird as the episode back from a hiatus. All depends on what comes after, I guess (it's still up on iTunes, if anyone's interested and hasn't grabbed it elsewhere).

What is CN's total demographic, and what's the YJ's specifically? This seemed really violent, in deed and in implication, for a show that draws Gar like it does, if that makes any sense. The art feels like they've lightened stuff up (not to the TT Go level), but the plotlines keep getting, well, darker and darker.

I was definitely wincing at some stuff, especially when Cassie was taking a beating. But, hey, I guess that's what superpowers are for, right? Right?

(last remaining thought for the nonce: Someone really needs to put a collar on Megan. Public menace, man. Impulse (no pun intended) of a 12 year old who missed a dose of Ritalin,)

Yeah, the beating of Cassie was really brutal. Heck, the Black Beetle fight in general was really rough.

Speaking of whom, the one thing I didn't get was why Shimmer was on his side. She was a prisoner like the rest of them.

As for Megan I have a feeling she's starting to see the error of her ways.

After everything went so bad last week and Dick seemed thoroughly over his head, I had a feeling that either Megan was going to end up lobotomizing Aqualad or Lagoon Boy was going to kill him in a fit of rage/betrayal at some point this season. Wasn't expecting it so soon, though.

I do find it odd that both Dick and Tim wear sunglasses while in civvies around the team to "protect their identity" but Barbara makes zero effort to hide her face. The only thing I can think of to explain it is that Dick and Tim are regularly seen around Bruce, whereas Barbara most-likely isn't.

Edited to fix whitefont.

Now that I have all 10 episodes of S2, am I going to have a problem jumping in at this point, without having seen S1? I saw the first episode of S2 (because Scola is awesome) and didn't have any problems understanding what was what, so I'm assuming I won't have any problems with the rest of the season.

Steph,

No, you should be fine if you are familiar with the comics versions of the characters. While some things are different and some characters' relative ages have been shifted a bit, none of them are drastically different than their counterparts. There's actually a 5-year time skip from the end of season 1 to beginning of season 2, which makes a lot of things "start from scratch" anyway.

You will miss out on some of the import of the story arcs related to Aqualad and Artemis, but you shouldn't be confused.

I would suggest watching Season 1 anyway, because it's awesome, even if it doesn't have any Blue Beetle.

Deadpool vs. NY Comic-con [link] Lots of cross-players in this one.

That one is really fun.

On re-watch I realized "Wow, the official cosplayer for the Deadpool game is one big dude."

Young Justice: Roy's a clone? The hell?

The Scarab is not Kord tech, damn it. I mean, the pre-new 52 explanation (alien tech from an alien race that wanted to enslave the Earth [like you do]) doesn't lend itself to a team show, but -- damn it, it's alien tech!

The bloodthirstiness is about right, though.

The Bat-family is awesome, although I don't know how I feel about having Barbara as Batgirl.

Roy's a CLONE?

t edit Also, Impulse FTW!

What episode are you up to, Steph?
