Ugh, the friggin' ugly guy has an even uglier kid. Huntress should have killed them both out of mercy.

What is the origin of the Question? Does he really have no face or is that a mask of some kind. Also is he voiced by blue skinned guy on Enterprise?

Yes, Jeffrey Combs plays the Question.

In the comics, the Question's mask could come off. He was the basis for Rorschach, if you ever read Watchmen.

Wow... I had no idea Amy Acker (Fred, from Angel) was the Huntress. Awesome.

Yeah, it's a mask. As an angry orphan Victor Szasz always wondered why people did the things they did. Later on, he grew up to be a tv reporter who took on political corruption in Hub City. Anyone he couldn't expose through television, he pursued as The Question. No super powers, but he was trained by one of the best martial artists in the world.

As for the voice, Jeffrey Combs.

The Question was great in this episode - they need to feature him again in a future episode.

And that spin-move Huntress did against Black Canary - wow! Pretty damn hot for a cartoon!

Flashpoint was awesome. Ever since Task Force X, the storyline has been great. Wish the series was longer, its gonna be over after 3 more episodes. Where is it headed? Seems like Xmen being distrusted by humans/non-mutants.

Spoiler:
Was this storyline ever coved in the JLA comic books? Cadmus, humans (Amanda Waller, military, even Captain Atom) vs the league. Even Green Arrow and Flash are having misgivings. Where's Batman all this time? I hope the league doesn't just disband again.

You might want to use spoilers tags or not to divulge too much plot points about the episodes since our American friends are behind in their JLU episodes.

Double Date was a mediocre episode. Not much going on.

for "Panic in the Sky".

Spoiler:
I loved the big reveal with Brainiac. Can anybody tell me why he looks so different than in the comics? I gotta give a big for the big fight in the JL satellite with all of the minor DC superheroes showing up including some of my favorites like Red Tornado and the Creeper.

I got a big laugh out of Flash line about why Batman was absent:
"Batman is running late. The Batmobile lost a wheel and the Joker got away."


Two more episodes to go.

Nice. Thanks for the heads up.

I'm just glad a 5th season is on the way,
Spoiler:
even though the synapsis for the 78th episode, Epilogue kinda sounds like a series finale episode.

Spoiler:
For anyone that's a comic fan, the major plot point of Panic in the Sky isn't a surprise; it more or less mirrors the comic story. I still enjoyed it for what it was though
.

Regarding someone else's question:

Spoiler:
Brainiac is a much, much differnet character from his comic incarnation. In the cartoon, he was a supercomputer built to run Krypton. He knew about it's impending destruction but escaped and became a collector of knowledge, destroying worlds in the process. In the comic, he's an evil scientist from the planet Colu (if you're wondering, that's also where Brainiac 5 from The Legion of Superheroes comes from, which is why they share the same name and look similar).


My favorite episode so far has been Question Authority. That cliffhanger really kept me on the edge of my seat...

For anyone that's living in the states, you can see the episodes...but it requires a bit in ingenuity...and high-speed internet...

Yep. Awesome episode.

Spoiler:
Just having the majority of the team kicking ass, even the Watchtower's tech crew throwing it down was pretty cool. Brainiac making an appearence at the end was also great.

What episode is everyone watching? The one that aired tonight had Shazam in it. As far as I know this Brainiac episode hasn't aired yet. How are people seeing it?

As for resinrats, the answer to your question would be the last line in Superboy's post

Justice League Unlimited Episodes started back up again earlier in Canada then in the US... so they're out there.

A young orphaned newsboy named Billy Batson was cast out onto the streets by his cruel uncle. Alone and homeless, he soon met a mysterious stranger who led him into an abandoned subway track and an ancient hallway. Then Billy met the wizard Shazam, who told Billy that he was growing old and weak and that he needed a new champion to battle The Seven Deadly Enemies of Man: Pride, Envy, Greed, Hatred, Selfishness, Laziness, and Injustice. The old man has chosen Billy as the new champion, and by shouting "Shazam!", Billy became Captain Marvel, an adult superhero who draws his power from six gods (the first letter of each name together spells Shazam): the Wisdom of Solomon, the Strength of Hercules, the Stamina of Atlas, the Power of Zeus, the Courage of Achilles, and the Speed of Mercury.
As for your second question yes, there was a non lightning bolt version of Captain Marvel at Marvel comics. I guess you can check this out for how that was possible: http://briefs.toddverbeek.com/archiv...in_Marvel.html

By the use of Magic, if anyone isn't aware of it. Superman sucks against magic and I would like to also point out how similiar this was to Kingdom Come. You have Luther using Marvel against Superman.
