Young Justice Appreciation 2019 (TV show and comic)

[Personamanx]

Just finished reading issue two, a fairly solid continuation of last issue. Things feel like they're coming together, but I think I may wait for the digital trade for the rest of the series. Just feels like it will read better in a single chunk.

Somewhat disappointed to discover that there wasn't a digital code in the issue. I don't buy DC single issues regularly enough to know how consistent they are with digital copies. Do they only have them for first issues? If so I don't think I'll bother with physical copies of the Wonder Comics titles at all.

Really liked issue #2, loved Cassie and her interactions. I think its the time ive liked it the best.

Some bendistalk still seeps in and its really annoying when it happens, but i can put up with that, its a quality book overall.

[AJpyro]

Overall Liked issue 2.

The Cassie story gave me enough to chew on and this was the neatest Zeus I've ever read.

Cons: Bendis speak and the Endless "Who are you?Where are you? You know each other? I have no idea" is just Ugh inducing.

Poor poor Despero reduced to this level of jobbing.

[Frontier]

Poor poor Despero reduced to this level of jobbing.

Bendis' issue with power levels reminds intact .

[Aahz]

The dialogue was imo really annoying. Especially during the Wonder Girl part.

And Despero should really a little bit more powerfull than this.

[Mataza]

Rather think WG is just that strong now. And I'm fine with that.

I have no problem with Cassie beating despro, can anyone enlighten me as to how he is being jobbed in this instance.

Despero is a character who on numerous occasions has fought the Justice League to a standstill...Superman, Wonder Woman, Martian Manhunter...all characters who should be more powerful than Cassie individually but it took them together to take him down. Here Cassie doesn't even seem to have to break a sweat to beat him down. There's several potential reasons for such a feat...she got the drop on him, he was disoriented for some reason, he was being mind controlled...but none of those were presented. It could have been that Grandpappy Z was responsible and used him as a way to get Cassie to feeling pretty good about herself and thought it would be easy to sway her to take up her place. None of that was presented though.

I am really enjoying what Bendis is doing here. I wasn't as much of a follower of him at Marvel and dont have a lot of the problems some people seem to have with him, but I did think this was a shortsighted effort for both the writer and character.

[Aahz]

Also Despero is usually someone who is the main villain of a story, and not some one who gets easily taken out in a few panels of a side plot.

[Armor of God]

Pfft, Rogol Zarr is the new Despero.

[SixSpeedSamurai]

I thought her dropping Despero seemed kind of odd to, but I still enjoyed the issue. Interested to see what Cassies story is in Rebirth.

Thanks I haven’t really heard much about the character but if this is the case it would seem that he was misrepresented, it could be that this wasn’t even the real Despero just something Zeus created as a test.

I don’t think legacies necessarily need to be weaker than their mentors, in fact it’s counterproductive but in this case I think we will discover more about this scene later on.

But they shouldn't have surpassed them when they are still teenagers.

[lucius121]

But they shouldn't have surpassed them when they are still teenagers.

They shouldn’t surpass them in skill or experience as teens, otherwise it makes the whole mentor/ student relationship moot. But in terms of strength I don’t see the issue.
