One thing about superboy I wish you pointed out was that he's the only one who's predecessor really isn't invested in him. Superman is such a stoic figure in all his iterations but you can see his clear discomfort when he first meets superboy that even batman kinda makes fun of him for it. It's almost like a co-parenting relationship and that's why superboy ends up being so drawn to Lex, who actively checks in with him, gives him support etc while Superman is barely around

@@jacobw5914 The only thing I'm hoping for is that sometime in the near future they can bring this show back after another cancellation 😕. To close back into this comment though. I think the handling they did of superman meeting super boy was great. I mean it makes you wonder how you would feel if you had someone make a clone of you with your DNA. Of course, I love that they also incorporate the Genos or whatever they were called into the last couple seasons. Showing how even super boy, someone who didn't have much support from his role model for a while. Had to help a whole species that was trapped under the control of a whole organization.

This was probably my favorite depiction of Dick as Robin of any show. The episode with him and Artemis trying to save the rest of the team from the Reds in the cave was great. It showed how, despite his age, Dick was uniquely competent and cool under pressure. "I've been doing this since I was 9." It also showed a glimpse of his leadership abilities. Artemis was leaning on him, and when he noticed she wasn't responding to his laid back nature, he barked "get taught or get dead" at her because that's what she needed to hear to get her head back in the game. Sucks that they time skipped past so much of his development into Nightwing.

I never heard of this show until HBOMax told me it had new episodes. Season 1 was an absolute blast and it did the most incredible feat of all- it validated Robin. BTAS put up with him, Teen Titans had him as the normal... the DCEU killed him off outright so they didn't have to deal with him... but Young Justice asked the real question: "If he's Batman's sidekick, what does that actually mean seeing how the guy doesn't seem to need a sidekick?" Dick Gordon isn't mini Batman, he's Batman + Social Awareness. "So he doesn't become me." And it's very hard not to point out Batman movies that could have used a little Robin in them. "WHERE ARE THEY!???" To clarify, it's not about making Batman lighter or softer, it's more about Batman giving up on himself, "This is who I am, I'll cope", but helping mentor someone like him into becoming better than Batman is.

I always looked at Bruce and Dick being 2 different people in personality. I see Dick being someone Bruce wishes to be. Dick sees Bruce the same as in crime fighting. The thing they share in common is wanting to help others and both their parents dying in front of them. In a way they are each others mentors even tho Dick is younger.

My issue is that season 3 could've been great, but I feel like there had to be some kind of manipulation behind the scenes that the writing room had to deal with. It felt so tonally confused, with the way that halo would violently die every other episode where at the same time they'd do super dumbed down versions of the same themes from previous seasons. I think that the writers wanted to tell a more mature story but were stopped from doing so. I think that they honestly wanted to move on from young justice and write another story in the same universe but were forced to deal with the restrictions of a kid/young adult friendly show Season 4 is a bit better but I still think it suffers from the same problems. It's just hard to stay invested in the characters when it feels like the show doesn't have the ability to give them the proper time needed

An excellent take on young Justice season 1. This season got the drama of the characters and why they pulled together as a team. I am sure that the show will continue that strong writing. Season 2--4: our heroes lie to each other with no consequences , get lost in numerous side plots with new characters that don’t have the same impact, Me:Crap.

After a whole season of "M'gann needs to stop messing with her friends' brains even if she thinks she has a good reason to do so", we get an episode where she uses her and Artemis' memories of Wally to make Artemis think Wally's spirit told her to move on.

@@ethanlivemere1162 Sure! 1)When season 2 ended, and the secret that artemis was not dead and Aqualad was undercover, Superboy was the only member of the original team who showed Anger towards Nightwing and the other conspirators. This admittedly was excusable IF IT WAS the only time the team had done something like this. But the lack of emotions from the other members does the drama less...impactful and this will ultimately get worse from a writing standpoint. 2)The Batman Inc conspiracy. Not only does none of the outsiders or the Young Justice team members who weren't in on the collusion not shown long-term distrust of the guilty parties, Batman Inc isn't even punished. Batman is let back into the league by Black Lightening for no real good reason. superboy gets engaged to Meghan despite the fact that she LIED to him and the team. Recall that even amongst Batman Inc, there WERE heroes who had no idea that Batman Inc, was playing both sides. We get no scenes where Green Arrow and other Batman Inc members who were kept in the dark angrily react to what was manipulation. At least in the comic JLA Babel when Batman's contingency plans were revealed, the JLA members DISTRUSTED Batman and voted him out. Even Superman cast a vote against him. What is even worse is that many of the inside scope of Batman Inc were those from season 2 who ALREADY LIED to their fellow team members, but none of them own up to their mistakes. As Black Lightening said to Batman: "You aren't sorry." 3)Wally West. In what was honestly a sickening decision, Zatanna, Rocket, and Meghan (who has already deceived her peers with batman Inc), trick Artemis into thinking she was seeing wally's spirit. This would be justified if Artemis was suicidal, except this isnt the right way. You dont make some play quiji board to see a loved one. none of the parties feel guilt over their act and why should they? The show makes it clear that what they did was right-except not really. 4)Tara. The same applies here. The team kept crucial information away from the team again and hoped for the best outcome-when there was great chances for it to go wrong. Esepcially when it means the outsiders will resent the older heroes for doing so. Why didnt they use brion as a way to reform tara? They could him that : "Hey your sis is taking orders from the bad guys. But we think there is a chance. We know you are close with her and she cares for you. Talk to her, spend time with her, and ease her through. We think this is where your training is most helpful." Nope, they keep him and the others in the dark. And since this number 3 manipualtion/lying by the heroes agaisnt the outsiders, why arent the outsiders even more angry?

@@bradhorowitz2765 The first one I think is a bad example. Just because we don't see people be angry at him doesn't mean there are no consequences (even then, Superboy isn't the only one, La'gaan is also angry and though Wally isn't angry at the secrets per se, he does get angry at Nightwing). The consequences of it being kept a secret are some of the main plot points. Meghan frying Kaldur's brain, everyone wanting revenge on Kaldur for killing Artemis, leading to interference from Sportsmaster and Cheshire, recklessly dangerous behavior towards Kaldur by La'gaan even before he killed Artemis, and by Blue Beetle when the scarab takes control.

@@ethanlivemere1162 what i mean by consequences is the relationship changes. Notice that lagoon boy and superboy are the only ones who question the lie and angrily respond to it. Meghan doesn't, beast boy dosnt, etc. Now I see this a minor compared to what happens in season 3 and 4; the heroes (off screen in my mind) did understand it and realized the heroes weren't going too far. Season 2 i think did the whole "betrayal/conspiracy" story much better than what was too come. In contrast season3/4 is where consequences dont actully matter. .

Growing up as a kid, when I watched superhero shows, the only thing that struck out to me was their power and their abilities. But after going some life shit in the last 2 years, you realize the power they have breeds more insecurities about who they are and how to best utilize their powers and how they fit in with the people around them.

I’ve enjoyed Phantoms 4-episode character chunk approach to its sub stories for the Greater Legion and Zod storyline. It’s def clunky but Orphan/Oracle, that damn yellow bus, Cheshire, Beast Boy and Dr Fate have been highlights to see expanded on. Forager has always been a little irksome but I can appreciate them reciting Shakespeare.
