It was credited, though it was credited as "Joker" and not "The Joker". The guy doing the voice was and will be Michael Emerson, from the TV show Lost. I have not heard enough of his voice as Joker to make a decision about whether it will be good or not.

I agree with you that Peter Weller was a terrific choice for the voice. I usually hear Kevin Conroy in my head when I think about the voice of Batman, but Weller is now a very close second. He did the same thing with his voice that Conroy did. He went to a more subtle and secret place with his voice. The man has voice acting chops, I'll give him that. Most screen actors can't do voice acting worth beans, but this guy clearly can.

I wonder if Weller had done any other voice work before this? He came off like a real pro.

The complaint: "Winter 2013".... you #(*@$%#()%)@*%#(&%ing bastards! Make it come out NOW!

I agree. I very much agree.

I just hate seeing a Part 1 and then having to wait for 2.

Just watched the next epi. of "Young Justice: Invasion", season 2, "Satisfaction", in which they have found the real Roy Harper (Red Arrow/Speedy) and he's pissed. Therefore, he goes after Lex Luthor. A pretty boring episode if you ask me, and hardly worth the months of waiting.

The animated "Teen Titans". It's so corny and cheesy you can't help but be entertained by it.

Seeing the evil dwarf Gizmo from the comics depicted as a little bald eight year old genius with a potty mouth is just hilarity!

My only gripe is them treating Beast Boy as their whipping boy.

The Legion of Superheroes

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Legion_of_ ... _series%29

A two-season Saturday morning cartoon show originally airing on the CW.

For those not familiar with comics or the Legion, who reside on 31st century Earth, you won't be interested.

The above Youtube channel has all of the episodes posted, for now.

The basic synopsis is that the Legion wonders "Where's Superman when you really need him?"

So, in his infinite (or so he thinks) wisdom, Brainiac-5 takes Bouncing Boy and Saturn Girl back in time to "abduct" young Clark Kent, to bring him to the 31st century to teach him how to be Superman. The whole idea is that it's a closed causality loop.

One nit that didn't go over too well with me is that Brainiac-5 is still a Coluan with a 12th level intellect, but he's also 100% robot. Well, android, since he's got a humanoid form and strives to be more human. Much like Mr. Data on Star Trek: TNG, or perhaps an allusion to Pinocchio. He's also comically depicted as being a huge fanboy of Superman, and during the second season, you have to wonder if they're not hinting that he's gay and in love with him as well.

Purists probably won't like it, as there's very little of Cosmic Boy in it, and Lightning Lad is portrayed as quite an ass.

Still, it's an entertaining show for those dark, cold days where you don't have anything better to do.
