    What I really love about the Robin/Zatanna romance is that Paul Dini was always trying to ship Bruce and Zatanna.

    that's why it's weird to see it now....but then I remember that Dick turned into a total manslut when he became Nightwing...so Zatanna aint the first and she sure as hell aint the last

    It was just J'onn and yes it was because of Superman. M'gann "guessed" it was about Kent Nelson and J'onn let her think that because Supes' identity is secret.

    There will always be a hiatus for summer scheduling purposes and to get caught up. That's standard in animation. Right now the production of "The Simpsons" is working on the episodes that will air in September and October, with November and December being written. Same with the other Fox shows that have been renewed. "Transformers Prime" had several hiatus gaps to get caught up for season one. The season ended in October and since late February, they've been airing new episodes every Saturday night, for season two. Two weeks ago there was a clip show, with only a few new scenes and only three characters being used, with one new locale created and one new character model. This, in turn, has allowed the animators to get ahead on the next episode, while keeping up with the pace of the season. Not to mention that it was designed to build off of the episode that had aired prior to the clip show.

    The episodes of season two that are in the can and those close to being done, will wind up airing between now and the middle of or the end of June. This will be important as we have a Batman film coming out and with the Avengers film due out in nine days, it doesn't hurt for WB and CN to have their own product going through till then. But after that, it's possible that there will be a delay until the fall. By that point, both the studio and the network will decide if it's worth giving a third season or not. Next year when "Beware The Batman" debuts, it will be part of the DC Nation block, if one or both shows make it to then.

    I got a kick out of Superboy and Robin taking out Batman with a Marvel-patented Fastball Special. :)

    Red Arrow getting away, and thus undoing the Light's whole plan, solely because Vandal was literally too busy gloating was weak writing A quick fight and clever-escape, or him surprising Vandal by being able to resist some programming, would have been better. Instead, Vandal literally stands around doing nothing and Roy just goes out the door. To see all the careful planning of the Light boil down to a moment of stupidity that would make Bond Villains double-take was a bit sad.

    Eh, I don't deny that Batman and the League got bush wacked, just that it's not as simple as 'Luthor and Batman have the same resources/everything is equal'.

    Luthor can pick his battles and their circumstances, whereas Batman will rush into any dangerous situation where an innocent person is threatened. In addition, The Light has massive resources, to the point where only one of them is a threat to the League.

    Personally I wonder if The Light is gonna fall apart on it's own, with all the masterminds having to work together

    Eh, it's been a marvel trick of late but it was a move used by Batman and Superman in the team ups going as far back as at least the 70's, so it seemed more like a World's Finest moment than a Marvel nod.

    Which might be relevant if I'd actually said that.

    But beyond using it a source to create the clone, there's no reason why Roy's DNA would be of any interest to them.

    Except I didn't. I never said anything about "Luthor and Batman have the same resources/everything is equal." That was your version of what I said, not what I actually said. (People in the know call that a straw man.) What I actually said (as nicely demonstrated by the quote in your post) is not that. I never made any specific comparison to the size of their relative resources; I simply pointed out that Batman's own resources were considerable, and would be more than enough to do the job if he were focusing them properly.

    Nice try, though.

    I can see that more than Bruce and Diana. Eventhough I thought how Bruce Timm built it was decent

    Hmm, wonder where I got that idea

    Not exact words, but close enough given that was the discussion you were replying to.

    Which, like I said, isn't a fair statement per say, because 1) Batman's workload is vastly greater and 2) He might be as rich/resourceful as Savage/Ras/Luthor/Queen Bee on a one on one basis, but combined they blow Batman out of the water
