Legion and The Batman

[roxy]

Okay, I confess I actually really liked the new version of Superman on the Legion of Superheroes. It's a very interesting take on the character--he feels like my kind of Superman. :). Poor little Brainiac...so in love and so heart-broken. *sigh*

The Batman continues to veer off from the original premise of the show, as far as I'm concerned. I would have liked to see this progression of a young Batman figuring out the ropes a little slower but I think I'm in the minority. And realistically, I guess he has been around long enough now to be in charge of his little Bat family. By the way--I hate that fucking little Robin. Maybe I'm spoiled by the Teen Titan Robin but this little wiseacre is just not--funny. I like Batgirl much better than I like Robin. I did like Luthor ("Luuu-tor") on the show--isn't it funny how each new version of Lex gets slimmer and slimmer?

The *good* Robin

I am in your camp when it comes to Robin. He's just...not damaged or intense enough to be my Robin. I loved the Legion and The Batman this morning, but I really hate the whole 'To Be Continued' routine with season premiers. That really boils my grits.

You are so right about Lex. I think the artists are getting on board and realizing MR is one badass, sex--kitten, protrayl of Luthor.

Right? And just because it's a kid's cartoon (suuuure) doesn't mean that you can't get that quality--look at Teen TitansRobin--oy, issues....
And I hear you on the continued bit--don't make me scream that early in the day, you know what I mean?
