Ahbababababa. I'm going to have to think about this one. I mean I have no reason to counter. But I must say I'm just overwhelmed, anything I say from here on in will pale in comparison to this incredible post here.

You've made compelling arguments and actually have given me new respect for many of the characters. Though, still not the Penguin. I like this Penguin, but I'm still not one for the over the top deformity. Though they could evolve out of it. Even the B:TAS had a deformed Penguin for a couple of seasons. I still prefer the high society man who has no business being part of high society. I'm actually quite sad that Phillip Seymour Hoffman declined the role in the upcoming movie, because he is perfect.

I'm also not a fan of Riddler's new look. I think it's just awful. I just don't really see the Riddler as a scene kid basically. The creepiness and the smarts he has in spades, but that design just seemed like overkill to me. As I had said before I can actually sympathesize with all characters in Riddler's Revenge, because they all seemed like things actual people would do in the context of the events that occured. Of course they're exaggerated because no one actually goes all the way like the Riddler, but it seemed like the most believable of the origin stories for some of the more ludicrous villains.

Killer Moth isn't any more comedic than his actual comic counterpart who was a rather lame villain anyway. Well that was until the whole Neron deal. But I do like how they overlapped the comedic personality with his Charaxes form. That was a great break from the first Killer Moth exposure on Teen Titans who was closer to the Charaxes of the comic, minus the eating.

I'm glad you mentioned the new Clock King, Francis Grey. I''m actually mixed on how his story ended. On the one hand he's a great villain, on the other hand he deserved a second chance.

Wow, I never meant to write this much. And still I didn't hit all your points. I don't think I can. You really did a great job. Glad there's other people who are actually able to look past the differences from previous incarnations and enjoy this show.

By the way, I look forward to the other Justice League characters. As long as they don't try to make another Justice League show, because they had a perfectly good one that could've gone on for a few more years.
