Superman vs Captain Marvel in JLU.uhuh
In fact any of Superman's fights from JLU season 2 forward is just awesome.
The sound, the effects, the animation. Every punch sounded like broken bones even if the fight wasn't that great.
That being said, The Billy vs Superman fight was kind of a letdown. Billy was portrayed as way too ineffective and the fight was way too one sided for it to be great, though the smashing was top notch. Shit like Mongul, Darkseid, and the kin were way better. They should have had Billy on Mongul's level so you could have had a nice drawn out "Superman" fight in there and then had Superman win.

After season 1 of jobber Superman? I'll take whatever I can. That shit was ridiculous. Seriously, superman needing to hide from bullets? Unable to break plexiglass? John Stewart looked STRONGER than him.

Yeah, the sound quality was great.After season 1 of jobber Superman? I'll take whatever I can. That shit was ridiculous. Seriously, superman needing to hide from bullets? Unable to break plexiglass? John Stewart looked STRONGER than him.
Also I just realized I don't even remember the original Justice League cartoon. Wait was War World and Apokalips part of the original JL one? If so I got a lot of shit mixed up and am going to have to go through both.

War world and Twilight of gods were part of Justice League season 2. It became JLU at season 3.

Yeah, I wanted that too. But man, those were some horrible portrayals for Superman both character vise and power vise.War world and Twilight of gods were part of Justice League season 2. It became JLU at season 3.
While I'm remembering, I think I only remember Killer Frost and maybe Steel from the Superman cartoon. I need to go through all this shit again.

Never even watched the Avengers one. But yeah cartoons are shit. But then again it seems games are suffering too. There needs to be some actual games for both based on comic characters not scribblenauts bullshit.
It seems they're only focusing on movies and comics now, even though they're completely seperated and wide open for something.
Also SS was awesome. Pretty much any Marvel cartoon was back then.

It was good for its time, but something about it felt kind of bland, compared to shows like Batman Beyond or Batman: TAS.
Now Brave and the Bold, that show was great. A mix of silver age, modern, Adam West era. Not to mention making Aquaman interesting for the first time ever. (Sort of channeled Marvel Herc there.)
