March 5, 2012 6:17 am This episode works on so many levels. Great story for this episode and great development in context of the series. A strong showcase for Captain Marvel.(tons of shazaming in this episode). Lots of action and fighting near the end. The art is great.(Female doctor fate looks awesome). For 21 minutes this was just masterful story telling. I mean they could make a 90 minute animated feature using this story because there is so much going on and different things they could explore. But the best thing had to be captain marvel. Captain marvel is an incredibly sympathetic character and acts as conduit of wish fulfillment for the viewer. The sheer joy he gets from being part of this team is infectious. I know the idea of captain marvel has always been wish fulfillment for kids but i feel young justice taps into a part of the character that hasn't really been explored before. The idea that when you're a kid you'd kill to hang out with your older brother or cousin and there friends and do everything they do and be part of that club.
