This might not matter to many here but man, am I excited. The Ruby Spears produced Superman animated series from the 80s is finally coming to DVD this year!!!!!!

Here's the link:

I really hope that this holds up.

Interesting. I remember when that used to be on TV at some ungodly early hour for an elementary school child, like around 7 a.m. or so in the 80's. That was usually too early for me to wake up on a Saturday considering I was usually up at 6-6:30 a.m. weekday mornings anyway. Bootleggers have been selling that series at Cons for years now, so it would be a good idea to give it a proper release.

The way I remember it, it aired at 7 a.m. on CBS? Terribly early for a series like this. I used to work Friday nights in the city helping out my uncle back in '88 and by the time I drove home across the bridge to actually catch it on, I was too tired to watch it most times. That's when I started setting the timer on my VCR to watch the eps after a nice long sleep.

My younger sister, who's not fond of comics in the least, used to get up to watch this; she really loved this show.

Looks like Boomerang isn't gonna be airing JLU anymore.

 

[BlackLantern]

well I own all 4 seasons of the JL/JLU run so that doesn't matter to me

 

[Anubis]

I don't have boomerang anyway.

 

[Kane52630]

I do, Dexter's Lab is going to be on
too bad for JL/JLU that was a great show

 

[Swordmaster]

At least they replaced it with Samurai Jack, a show of comparable quality, as opposed to something like Captain Planet.

 

[Kane52630]

Hey Captain Planet was the s***! dont diss the Cap

lol

 

[RockSP]

well I own all 4 seasons of the JL/JLU run so that doesn't matter to me

Isn't it 5 seasons total?

 

[BlackLantern]

Justice League seasons 1 and 2 and JLU seasons 1 and 2...that's all of them

 

[Spider-Gamer]

Justice League seasons 1 and 2 and JLU seasons 1 and 2...that's all of them

JLU was three seasons. The box sets put the first two seasons in one box. That's why there is no special features about the episodes on third and fourth disc (like commentaries) on the first box set because they didn't know WB was going to do that hence why the project cadmus special feature is on the second box set even though none of those episodes are realted to it.

So there is 2 seasons of JL and 3 of JLU.

As I recall JLU has been on Boomerang since 2006. For a while now they've been airing just the Justice League Unlimited episodes.

I did like the way they showed a mini marathon of JL episodes last Christmas ending it with "Comfort and Joy". Hopefully they do the same this year.

yeah, they replaced it with Samurai Jack

 

[Anubis]

Which I also own on DVD.

 

[Prison Mike]

I haven't seen that show since it went off the air. It was nice to revisit it.

 

[RockSP]

I still need to pick up season 3 of SJ.

 

[Etienne]

It would be nice if Boomerang aired Megas XLR.

Yeah, I just found out last night as I went through the schedule bar on my tv last night. JLU was nowhere to be found. That kind of stung me seeing that I was so used to it being on every night for the last 4-5 years or so.

Well, there's always the DVDs from the show to get my fix. Nothing lasts forever.

Looting and polluting is not the way.

I guess I have to get the DVDs now. I guess I took it for granted watching it for free every night.

 

[Anubis]

Finally saw First Flight. Not bad.

 

[RogueDK]

Yeah...I liked it too. However Wonder Woman was more engaging for me which I found surprising.

 

[BlackLantern]

I'm a GL fan and I liked the movie, but to date Wonder Woman is the best movie (front to back) that they have put out so far
