Justice League Unlimited from Batman Beyond

Dork Note: Justice League Unlimited appearing in the Batman Beyond-verse was a great addition to the series.

Superman: Paul Dini said, "He’s the senior member…Superman’s got elements of the Kingdom Come Superman to him—a little gray in the temple—but he’s still the same guy. His suit’s a little more Kryptonian, oddly enough.”

Dork Note: I liked the combinations of elements for his costume.

Big Barda: Paul Dini said, “There was kind of a licensing problem with using Wonder Woman, so with Barda being a full-time member of the League. In the comics and since she’s from Apokolips and nearly immortal too. We figured ‘let’s put her in there and have a link to the contemporary book.”

Dork Note: She seemed weird and out of place, but I get why they used her. I would have preferred more of her original costume in the new design.

Green Lantern: Paul Dini said, “He is an Asian child, who’s about eight and is sort of like the Dali Lama. He just sort of hovers and is mystical all the time.”

Dork Note: I gig this version of Green Lantern it's a nice spin on an old idea.

Warhawk: Paul Dini said,“He is sort of like Hawkman, but is also the bad-ass of the group.”

Dork Note: Having him be the son John Stewart and Hawkgirl (Shayera Hol) was a great twist. Also his costume was very cool.

Aquagirl: Paul Dini said,“She is the daughter of Aquaman and Mera.”

Dork Note: I wish her costume was a bit more icon and more inline with Aquaman's.

Micron: Paul Dini said,“He is sort of like the original version of the Atom, mixed with a little bit of Giant-Man.”

Dork Note: He is the least interesting due in large part to the fact that little is revealed about him. Also I feel his costume is by far the weakest of them all.
