I really hope the end of the third episode means things really start to take off, and the pacing can improve.
I'm really liking the dynamic between Pat and Courtney though. The whole "mentor trying to explain that being a superhero is actually dangerous" thing is being done better in this show than it has in other superhero shows, imo.
I'm surprised you thinknthe pacing is slow. RL friends who watch the show have concerns that the pacing is way to fast compared to other shows made for streaming services (Daredevil, Jessica Jones, Luke Cage, Titans, Doom Patrol, Defenders). I mean the show was made for DCU and only soldnto CE as a deal when almost fully produced. When you compare it to all other shows specifically made for a streaming service it has break net pacing speeds in the plot.
Thus far, I'm really enjoying it. I do hope Courtney gets herself into a bit more trouble due to her reckless go at it attitude and needs Pat to save her again as a means of reigning in the exuberant spirit just a little. Though honestly its true to character as she was written in the 90s JSA.
My main issue is with the [SPOILER - highlight to read]: time it's taking to start building the new JSA. I was initially worried that it was going to take longer, but episode 3's end make me feel like I might have been prematurely concerned.
According to him Alan Scot and Dr Fate are alive in the current day. If so why are their talismans in JSA HQ.
Also how the hell does he know that said HQ was Starman's mansion?
I watched the latest ep earlier today and liked it though, bittersweet parts and all.
Some nice future conflicts got set up, and, Courtney at the end was perfectly in character.
Y’know, thinking deep thoughts as I was pooping a while ago, there’s no reason it couldn’t be Starman’s mansion.
He was old money to begin w., hence the Chauffer and what not. This is a Star-centric show, so Courtney getting her own Batcave is in line w. things.
It had some good character development for Yolanda but the convenience of how easily she becomes wildcat and the predictability that is flowing from that were a bit of a let down.
@Pr I'm not so sure the suit is tech and not magic (or maybe the mask is magic)
This reminds me of the Spongebob ep where the gang takes on the identities of Mermaid Man’s old team, The International Justice League of Super Acquaintances, because the powers were in the costumes...
You know, as a parent myself, I gotta say, Yolanda’s mom, dad, and even her grandma, can all suck a bagful of Dicks for that huge guilt trip they’re laying on her.
