On a scale of 1-10, rate the chracters of JLU and how they're represented on the show. Rate them on:

Voice Acting: Does the person who voices the character sound right? would you say they sound like the character would in the comics?

Personality/Powers/Storyline: How would rate this person's personality on the show? Does he/she have depth, or do you feel that they're just there? Do you think their power levels or right, or are they too weak? How do you feel about their story role on the show?

Design: Do you think Timm/Tucker did a good job on this characters design? Is it like the comics? Maybe better?

Here are the characters that have had a speaking/story role on JLU:

Superman
Batman
Wonder Woman
Green Lantern
The Flash
Hawkgirl
Martian Manhunter
Aquaman
Demon
Dr.Fate
Green Arrow
Captain Atom
Supergirl
Hawk & dove
Zatanna
Booster Gold
Black Canary
Elongated Man
B'wana Beast
Mr.Miracle
Barda
The Question
Wildcat

Thats not how you're supposed to rate them....

1. Pick a member, or two, or more, and rate them on voice acting, personality, etc. its all explained in my first post. the list of heroes was only there becuase those were the members with speaking roles on JLU.

And no offense, but can everyone stop telling me who i missed just rate the members already? I want to see what peoples thoughts are on a certain character

Too many characters to do them all... so I'll just stick with my fave!

Wonder Woman

Voice Acting: Does the person who voices the character sound right? would you say they sound like the character would in the comics?8 -- Susan Eisenberg does a great job. In the beginning, she seemed a little too fresh, but you know, the character was supposed to be new. There are only a few rare moments where I think "that line could have been delivered better". And honestly the only thing I can think of off the top of my head was in FTMWHE where Diana is trying to free Batman. She screams "Bruce!". It just didn't sound like Susan to me. I originally thought it was supposed to be his mother screaming.


Personality/Powers/Storyline: How would rate this person's personality on the show? Does he/she have depth, or do you feel that they're just there? Do you think their power levels or right, or are they too weak? How do you feel about their story role on the show?3 - OK. This is where I have the biggest problem. I've complained elsewhere, so I'll keep this as short as possible, but....

Personality-wise, if all the writers would agree on one personality, I would be happy. If everyone wrote Diana like Dwayne McDuffie, I'd be extremely happy.

Power-wise (and at times personality-wise too), she is too similar to Superman. Sure, she's strong and can fly, but in the comics, there is much more to her. OK, the powersthatbe didn't like the truth thing. Well, that's half of Diana's mystique out the window. And what about her wisdom of Athena? Eye of the hunter? Weapons master? Even the animal-talking shtick?

Storyline, eh, it's been mediocre at best. I take that back... I loved "Maid of Honor". "Paradise Lost" and "Fury" were just ok, but not great. I absolutely loathe "Hawk and Dove". And although I have enjoyed the Bats/WW flirting, I do not like how it has seemingly taken over as the Wonder-theme.


Design: Do you think Timm/Tucker did a good job on this characters design? Is it like the comics? Maybe better?8 - I really like the design. She is tall and regal like an Amazon should be. Her costume is simple and clean. The hair seems a bit too big and "blobbish" at times, but in the original designs it worked. The only real issue I have is that she should be one of the most beautiful women in the world (you know, "as beautiful as Aphrodite" and all that). It doesn't always come across that way. But, I don't think I can fault Bruce Timm for that.

Overall, I give the JL/JLU Wondie a 6.

THE FLASH
Voice Acting: Michael Rosembaum has done a marvelous job with this character. He does bring the best of this character.
Personality/Powers/Storyline: He's brash, young and full of heart. His powers have come along way since the first season but have developed rather nicely these last seasons. The spotlight episodes have been ok but he had some really fun moments.
Design: I always liked red. He looks like a hood ornament but still cool.

Rating: 8.5/10

Batman

Voice acting: Kevin Conroy does a magnificent job, there is no other Batman in my mind. 10

Personality/Powers/Storyline: His tragic and gloomy past is mixed into to his personality to be just what Batman should be, Dark. I think him using fear as a weapon to strike terror into his enemies is really cool and yet a bit creepy and his mysterious nature and intellect make him stealthy as well as intelligent. Of course, he has know powers but he uses his skills and weapons so well that it seems he can take down anyone. I also like how he uses manipulation to psyche his opponents out. However, it seems sad to me that he's dedicated his life to vengeance and unhappiness 9

Design: I don't really like Batman's JLU design as much as his B:TAS sign. It's just very bland and doesn't really work for me 7

All in all, Batman gets and 8.5 out of 10

SUPERGIRL

actor voice: i'm comfortable with Nichole Tom, she's been there since Little Girl Lost.

personality/powers/storyline: i like her, she is my fav character, but i'm probably because i've been following her in comics. not only cara, also linda and matrix. The animated supergirl it's ok, although i would like to see her in a more mature role, i hope that with her spotlight in the conspiracy, she'll get what she need. her power are cool, she is a powerhouse, she is wearing the big "s".

Desing: I liked it at first, when SG was introduced, now i would like a new costume, more "woman", or like the costume she is wearing in her return to comics. At least make her taller and take away that alicia in wonderland hair

Booster Gold > All.

Okay, the Flash is good too, but Green La-erm, Booster Gold is simply the best, EVER.

Where's The Atom? He's a different hero from the nuclear-powered Captain Atom. And as long as I'm on the topic of The Atom... Katieee! :P
