Happy Comic Geek

Good gods do I love Justice League Unlimited! The show started out good and got progressively better, and this new season has been just great! It's fast-paced, good-humored, clever, and just filled with geeky homages that make it clear the show's creators are major comic book geeks themselves. I mean, they've got the Legion of Doom this season!

For an additional bit of fun, one of the new villains in one of tonight's episodes was "Devil Ray," an analog of DC's character Black Manta (the name change is probably because Black Manta was one of those '70s characters who had "black" in their name because they were African). Interestingly enough, the name of the aquatic, battlesuit wearing villain I created for Freedom City? ... Devil-Ray...

Damn, but I love this show.

... and I so wish Warner Bros. would do season boxed sets of the show on DVD. I would buy them in a heartbeat! But, if the glacial time it has taken for boxed sets of the Batman and Superman animated series is any indication, I'm not going to hold my breath.
