i taped the epsisode and plan to for the rest of the season. I liked it. after i rewined and watched it a few more times I have to say that i liked the way they "cheesy-ly" let us know that it wasnt gonna be a superhero free- for- all when they said that J'onn was gonna be the one to send PPL on missions. I dont like how batman played the wall and only had a few lines, but since he's the brains of the OP anyway they probably will just ease him inside slowly like angst virgins.
wow! was episode 2 cool or what. ive never seen superman cut loose like that man, geez! had mongol's face cracked and swollen and evry thing. what about that beating wonder woman took? dont you think she kind of derserves it? her being so eager to fight and has that stupid warrior code to never back down from a fight thing going. she took those choke slams like a real soldier though
WOW!
'The man who has everthing' was super awesome!Hands down THE BEST episode relating to the JL yet.Better than starcrossed!!!
I LOVED THE dream sequence with Batman and his father beating the crap outta the thug with the gun...and that dreamy smile on his face...aaawww...Superman's fantasy world was also hearbreaking...
Is it set in the fortress of solitude????
Do they do the whole thing with Supes going balls-out balistic when he realises what mongol did to him? Is he married to LANA or LOIS? Does he have kids?
Do they have the plant land on Bats and have his parents live?
is JASON TODD in it??????????????
**** me backwards - this series might just be worth watching.

Yes it IS set in the fortress of solitude.
Yes,Superman get's furious and kicks his ass bad. at one point he also says,through gritted teeth, "DO U REALISE WHAT U DID TO ME?"And smashes Mongul's face!
Yes, he has a son.He got a pretty redhead for a wife who apparently has Dana Delany providing her voice and is a combination of Lana and Loius.
And YES!BATMAN'S FATHER BEATS TEH CRAP OUTTA THE THUG!!!And lil Brucey's cheering his dad on,his mother beside him. that when WW,in an attempt to shake batman off the trance, calls out his name.Bruce hears it in his dream sequence, immeadiately realizes that this is not reality and in shadows on the wall we get a brief glimpse the man throwing Thomas Wayne off him and aiming the rifle at him.Batman shakes back to reality.
It was an extremely well doen episode.ESPECIALLY the Bruce's parent's death part.VERY heartbreaking.
oh and u can catch it again next SATURDAY in the morning,at ...I'm guessing 11:30 or 11:00.Check it out at CN.com! 🙂
CRAP! CRAP! Yall know I live in the Uk and we wont get this for like 100 years or so. I saw the first JLU episode had been posted to the newsgroups and was all "ah...whats the point of getting it, its all going to be the same old..."
But... this is one of my all time fave bat/sups stories...
The thing that struck me about it most when reading it was that Supes had this elaborate hearts desire involving Krypton and family and the love of a woman... and all Bats had was his father taking the gun from Joe Chill. That simplicity made it all the more effective.
Boondocks. Shame about Jason Todd, it was his only fine moment... (plus it was nice to see him perving at WW.)
Lets hope JLU maintains this level of commitment... whats next on ther list...? "Whatever happened to the man of tomorrow" ?

OMFG!!!!!!!
I WAS THINKING OF THE EXACT SAME THING YESTERDAY!!!!!!IT LEFT ME ABSOLUTELY ASTOUNDED that the Batman's greatest desire in the whole wide world was for that ONE SINGLE event to not occur.And the fact that Superman's super fantasy world starkly contrasted Bruce's one,rather small, moment in history, just had this effect of great heartbreaking sympathy for Batman.I had always known that Bruce would always give anything for the events of that night to turn around...but this episode made his desire beautifully heartbreaking and sympathetic...
