Obviously anyone that's wanted to see the last episode, has seen it already, but tonight is officially the end of the series.
It's a shame that Cartoon Network never realized what they had, and kind of overlooked it.

GOd dammit!
It was such an amazing show. By far, the best animated comic show of all-time, by a landslide. Phenomenal writing, the way these shows should be. I wish they would learn from their own example, and give us more quality comic shows like JLU.

Batman TAS still holds the reigns as best animated comic-based show of all time for me, but without a doubt, JLU was a fantastic show. Clearly the best american made animated series since...well Batman TAS.

Clearly the best american made animated series since...well Batman TAS. I love TAS, and it used to be my #1, before JL. I recent;y watched all of the episodes of TAS, and it just doesn't quite compare to JL, to me. Either way, more of the same please!

Yeah, JLU, and Batman TAS are an easy 1 & 2. Justice League is one of those shows, that I would've appreciated even when I was a kid.

It's time for Marvel to make a decent animated series, X-Men was good fun, as was Spider-Man, but we need something a little less kid centric, something similar to Ultimate Avengers, but in weekly format and, well, better.

I actually got into X-Men Evolution. It wasn't great, but it got pretty good after the first few episodes, and it ended way too early. But it's the best Marvel has given us in a while.
I want a new Captain America cartoon.
"When Captain America throws his mighty shiiieeeeellldddd...."

No dice. We're getting a Fantastic Four cartoon, but it's going to be anime styled, and geared toward younger kids.

Let us just hope that Ultimate Avengers 2 delivers then As much as I may enjoy anime, this bullcraphas to go from the states. They stole the worst styled Pokemon type art and ruin perfectly good superhero shows. Let the Japanense do their thing, you guys do yours.

I would actually dig a JSA show in the style of JLA. Of course, a lot of folks aren't familar with the JSA, but who doesn't want to get a happy from the Star Spangled girls braces?
And Power Girl's tits are fantastic.

Well, Teen Titans had the anime styled, and I got a kick out of that show. But yeah, we need one for the 18-34 demographic.

I just know that when an American cartoon gets a Japanese artstyle, it's because it's going to be goofy, which is ridiculous.

Looking back, X-Men and Spiderman were a little corny, but in the fun way.

Oh totally, especially Spider-Man. At least in X-Men characters "died" and/or went through emotional turmoil.

Just reading this thread, I noticed it's impossible to keep who's talking separate because you all use the same sig!

I'm sure they'll all move on to other highly creative, fan loved series that are cancelled far too early.
I think Batman Beyond should also get notice for being a good show. I didnt like some of the villains, but the writing was quality.

No love for Supes eh? I thought it was pretty good as well with episodes like Myxlyxspltk, Bizarro, and the Late Clark Kent. It was a fun show; BTAS or JLU were definately my top two though.
I've seen Teen Titans and it sucks I can't look past the animation and crappy kiddyness but the show seems suprisingly accurate with Slade, Trigon, and Doom Patrol; too bad they didn't have it in the DCAU cause it could've been great.
I agree about the american animation sucking; the only good cartoons right now are really only cartoon network shows like Dexters Lab and Grim adventures, as well as the Adult Swim shows. Everything else is some crap rehash of some Japanese garbage. Then again I despise Japanese anime and American anime.

Actually, I thought the Spiderman on MTV was surprisingly decent.
