Mutant Enemy Unlimited

[sigma7]

The more I poke around the cast listing for Justice League Unlimited the more gratified I am by the Whedonverse alumni infiltrating its ranks.

Gina Torres as Vixen
Adam Baldwin as Jonah Hex, Bonk and Rick Flagg
Morena Baccarin as Black Canary
Juliet Landau as Tala and Plastique
Amy Acker as the Huntress (don't visualize it; it doesn't work)
Nathan Fillion as Vigilante
Armin Shimerman as Dr. Milo

...did I miss any?

And there are a number of non-Jossy people involved I'm surprised to see and somewhat ashamed to have not recognized (including but not limited to): Lisa Edelstein, Melissa Joan Hart (well, less ashamed), Ben Browder, Jerry O'Connell, Dennis Farina, Dakota Fanning, Rob Zombie and Jason Bateman.

That said, I still maintain casting CCH Pounder as Amanda Waller is perfection. And Michael Ironside as Darkseid. And Ed Asner as Granny Goodness.

I believe Ironside, and I'm sure Asner, date back to the Superman Animated Series, which of course was by much of the JLU production team and also with Andrea Romano doing voice casting.

When is this show on? I really need to try watching it some day. Though what I'm really excited about is the Legion series.

Yup, and a pretty spiffy lineup they had, too.

And while I'm glad the JLU time travel bit was as continuity-rich as it was, I do want to see the Legion revisited. I'd like to see Sneckie, but I'll even settle for the (new-)Waid-era LSH.

Saturday at 9:30 on the Cartoon Network, according to the website formerly known as TVTome (sniffle).

Perfect.

HUBBA.

There's apparently a fairly strong Star Trek contingent in there as well. Weird. Now I want to see the show just to see if I can get the voices without reading the list again.

Jeffery Combs does Question, I think, (guy with no face). I didn't look it up. I just recognized his distinctive voice.

Just watched through episode eight ("Clash," Jerry O'Connell as Cap Marvel) and noticed him, too -- I really like what Gail does with Question and Huntress. And Nathan Fillion and Gina Torres did their own "space cowboy"/"Firefly revisited" thing, too, and that was nifty.
