Justice League: Season 2 (DC Comics Classic Collection) [Blu-ray]

You know, to this day I enjoy Justice League series more and more. It is hands down, my favorite piece of non-written fiction ever!! I grew with the Batman: TAS and a bit of Superman. I was very young when these shows first came out and I was more into epic action scenes. As I grew older and got these shows on DVD, I really started to appreciate them. They just don't make fiction like this anymore. Honestly, has Bruce Timm made ANYTHING bad? I've yet to see anyone with such a success streak in the entertainment industry. Or maybe I just don't get out enough, :-P To me, Bruce Timm and his cast of writers, directors and voice actors have outdone themselves in the Justice League series. It stays loyal to fans of all their shows, has a lot of wonderful continuity with the villains from the Batman & Superman series. These guys really get the 80/20 rule. Even if you haven't been a fan, it's hard not to love this show. Most of the episodes in season 2 are in two parts, and almost all of them have more of a story than most of the Hollywood movies that come out. Some of my personal favorites are Starcrossed (Obviously!), Hereafter (Lobo.. man, who is the guy that is the voice actor for Lobo? BRILLIANT!! Awesome ending, touching ending, fantastic!!), A Better World & Maid of Honor. I could write an essay on how great this show ended up being. Season 2 was AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!! I'm writing this review because I don't think these creators gets enough credit for their work. Apparently, a lot of disgruntled fans didn't like their twist to some things (GL's ring being cut off, Hawk Girl, etc.) whatever.. your loss. I didn't read a single comic book growing up so hey, what do I know? But I know good entertainment. Bruce Timm, you and your team have made something very special and this series will live on for a long time. Thanks so much for all the years of amazing entertainment! I'm a proud owner of ALL your work!

I bought all four seasons of The Justice League program because I had never watched it when it first aired back in 2001-2004. I was intrigued when I bought a couple of DC Comics straight-to-video DVDs with Bruce Timm's top picks as bonus features last summer, 2010. I have to say I much prefer Season 1 to Season 2 as Season 2 is much darker. However, having said that, I really enjoyed watching Disc 4 of this DVD with the 4 storylines of "Hereafter" (2 parter), "Comfort and Joy" (single episode, the only one in the first two seasons of the show), "Wild Card" (2 parter), and the season finale "Starcrossed" (a 3 parter with Hawkgirl initially betraying the Justice League and then her own people and planet in the end. She resigns from the Justice League and flys off into the sunset). I've watched this Disc at least 4 times because the storylines of "Hereafter" and "Comfort and Joy" kept resonating with me and I needed to see them over and over again. The final storyline, "Starcrossed", was very well done with Hawkgirl revealed as a military spy for her planet to spy on Earth's defence system the previous 5 years. Thanagar sends military envoys to Earth with a story line of wanting to help them defend themselves against their enemy when in fact they wanted to use Earth to destroy their enemy (which would have wiped out Earth at the same time). The storyline is well done, very well portray animatically with bright colours and Hawkgirl donning a new costume. Even good dialogue banter between the superheroes as they have to reveal themselves and don civilian clothing to hide against Thanagar's military as martial law is imposed on Earth. I would certainly recommend buying this DVD for the storeylines on the 4th disc (it has 4 discs along with commentary on certain episodes).

This is honestly one of the finest seasons of television ever made. It means a lot to me, and everybody should buy it. Maybe then they'll release JLU on Blu-ray too! I remember at the time this season was airing, Superman Returns came out and disappointed everybody. I kept urging people - "there are amazing and emotional and original Superman stories happening right now! Watch Justice League!" but nobody cared, not even a self professed "Superman fan" I met at a party who had no interest in the cartoon. With episodes like "Hereafter", I really think Bruce Timm and co. achieved new artistic heights. That isn't an action/adventure superhero show, it's poetic and meaningful. Everything about season 2 is improved over season 1 (and including past Timm shows), the humor, the dialogue, the plots and plot twists, the animation and fight sequences, the voice acting, ven the color palette is more subtle and richer. This is a perfectly executed season of television. Possibly only topped by the next 2 seasons of Justice League Unlimited. Buy it!

Looks fine, great collection of episodes

The DCAU is amazing. BTAS, STAS, BatmanBeyond, JusticeLeague, and JLU. In summer 2008, we got JL1 Justice League, season 1, on 3 blu ray discs. 26 episodes. It was 4:3, but it was HD and awesome! July 2011, we get JL2 Justice League, season 2, on 2 blu ray discs! 26 episodes. This time, in FULL HD 16x9 glory! (JL2 dvd was a 4:3 video with the episodes in 16x9 within the 4:3) It is amazing to see JL2 in full 16x9 and 1080p HD! As many know, JL2 episodes, story, action, were a huge improvement to JL1. JL2 is totally awesome, beautiful, must own for DCAU fans. Now, is it going to take another 3 years for JLU1-3 to come home on blu-ray? I hope not! But I think JLU1-3 should come in one package with 3 discs, and the entire JusticeLeague series on bluray is a beautiful thing!! Amazon digital video has JLU1-3 in HD streaming, not sure if you want to go that route. The bluray gives you the full bitrate of HD video. The fact that the episodes of JL2 are 2 discs where JL1 was 3 discs might suggest a lower bitrate, but in watching JL2 episodes, it looks super! I can't tell a difference, though there might be a small one, technically speaking. The menus, as mentioned by others, are not impressive. It would be nice to have that better, but the main thing is having JL2 episodes in 1080p and that's golden!!

The storylines are a bit awkward if you're familiar with the comics, the creators have tweeked and twisted details around to fit, but they didn't have to. I would definitely have preferred straight from comic page to screen adaptations but this is okay considering the length of episodes they worked with. Even though many of these episodes are 2 and 3-part episodes. If you have watched Batman the Animated Series, Superman TAS, and the Season 1 of Justice League, you will surely enjoy this season as well. The box is illustrated as well as the rest.

As an adult, my favorite memories of growing up were Sat morning cartoons. My favorite one was the first one to come on so I had to get up earlier than I did when I went to school just to make sure I saw it. (Before VCR's) and it was the Super Friends. Childhood memories of a great cartoon that is cheesy in today's standards. This series blows them away. I got my favorite heroes and arch-enemies going toe to toe and beating the crap out of each other and telling redeeming stories between characters for the most part. Great stories and hours of entertainment. It has been seven years since this series first aired and it is still good. The only close comparison is Young Justice on Cartoon Network (but not for much longer...(sad now)).

One of the best comic cartoons of all time. Very hard to find these on Blu-Ray. I would suggest watching the first season as well, but this is a must have for any comic book or DC fans. All the iconic voices and characters are there with the DC animated style with fantastic stories. This was before DC went crazy and started making awful decisions regarding Justice League. #RestoreTheSnyderverse

This is an amazing season. Friendships/alliances are tested, in the face of hardship and betrayal. Love the theme that is not the powers that make these characters superheroes, it is their character and choice to do good. Lots of rogue villains, especially Darkseid and Joker make an appearance in this season.

Very interesting

Must have for every collector
