I was pretty disappointed when the first episode of Justice League aired -- seemed a lot of punching, zapping, throwing and flying without the bits that made me like the Grant Morrison-era league. Oh, well, there was J'onn, but there needed to be more before I went completely mad over it.

The Justice League Unlimited approach is apparently just that -- so much background continuity to make the hardcore geek squeal and yet not overwhelm the newcomer. The new Mr. Terrific? Skeets? Amanda Waller? And...Deadshot next week? Not to mention giving Morena Baccarin and Amy Acker air time...yes, this is a good, good thing. Aw, Floyd Lawton, how I've missed you. Now, if only they'd shown the cosmic hand being grappled by one cloaked in green, I'd have been the happiest man on the planet.

The last two weeks of JLU have been great. I loved all the references to the past. The Jonah Hex bit was great. Jonah was one of the few western comics that I really liked. They should really bring him back as a Weird West type of character. Maybe a Vertigo title.
