    Default Superman characters in Young Justice (TV) spoiler thread

    The show's out, it has Superman related characters, so I figured we should have a thread to talk about it all as it relates to them.
    "Mark my words! This drill will open a hole in the universe. And that hole will become a path for those that follow after us. The dreams of those who have fallen. The hopes of those who will follow. Those two sets of dreams weave together into a double helix, drilling a path towards tomorrow. THAT's Tengen Toppa! THAT'S Gurren Lagann! MY DRILL IS THE DRILL THAT CREATES THE HEAVENS!" - The Digger

    We walk on the path to Secher Nbiw. Though hard fought, we walk the Golden Path.

    Should be noted that Steel is on the show now, and he looks pretty good, but has no lines. Conner takes a really big step as a person, shows how good of a metahuman fighter he is, expresses some real concern and understanding of New God tech (I'd be shocked if he didn't end up with a Mother Box this season), and takes part in Dick's secret mission.

    Clark is off in space, and given Conner's feelings of increased responsibility, and the inclusion of Steel, I'm guessing that this is the show's version of Death of Superman. Superboy and Steel acting as replacement Supermen in the city and on the League while Clark is away. Subtle, but cool.

    Outside of seeing his big personal moment through or not, it's hard to detect much upcoming story for Conner. But they'll get a fair bit of mileage out of that personal moment, and it can grow into a number of things.

    That's a really good catch actually, I love how the subtlety do these things, same way they made note of jason todd in season 2.

    If nothing else, this creative crew make their bread and butter off this sort of clever world building.

    Nope. 3 episodes a week. Not a bad deal given there's 26 in this season.

    Same here, I'm so happy the writers didn't decide to go in a different direction with these characters.
