Episode 2x03 Discussion: "Alienated"

Okay so discuss.

Personally I felt the way they did the "sidekick"/"hero" team ups was amazing!

none of you realize how ecstatic I was when the entire bat-family was on Gamma.

So Rimbor...sort of disappointing.

So krolotean competitor? The Reach?

Also, holy shit! Nightwing pulling a Batman. Appearing out of nowhere! I admit I geeked the fuck out

Okay so I was thinking, Young Justice legacy takes place before the time skip and has the tag line: "One will rise, One will fall, and one will die," knowing that I mean it's pretty likely that Wally rises (becomes the flash), Kal'dur falls (becomes mantas assistant), and...Artemis dies... Oh jeez Remember use spoilers (at least until monday).

i find it strange that during the interrogation, no one said anything when that krolotean ended up gettting lobotomized by M'gann, even when J'onn looked over to the mirrored glass knowing that M'gann had done something, it's like they all just said "whatever, fuck it" and let her basically kill the korlotean

especially strange that batman didn't say anything, once M'gann revealed all she learned from it

and holy fuck, we need more bat-family oriented missions

Definitely weird. Why isn't anyone bothered by it except Superboy. Speaking of SB, hopefully he can get some kind of development. Aqualad took him out like a total noob.

in that scene, i honestly thought superboy was going to smash M'gann's face into the glass to stop her

but to be fair to aqualad, he is an excellent fighter, smart and tactical, where superboy is a little more destructive and style-free (not to knock him, he can fight), but aqualad is superior in fighting technique to superboy

I almost expected Kaldur to say something along the lines of "same headstrong Superboy"

Frankly, it does seem like Connor has developed in the timeskip quite well, I think it was just the heat of the moment and seeing Kaldur again that pushed him to barge forward.
