In yesterday's news updates, Stan Berkowitz <a href="http://forums.toonzone.net/showthread.php?s=&threadid=14195">informed fans</a> that last nights episode of Justice League, entitled "The Enemy Below Part 2" was one of the most intense half hours ever produced by WB Animation. Below is reaction to last night's episodes, the last new episode until Febuary:

"I saw it. I loved it. And I gotta say I was extremely pleased with the way "it" was handled. They couldn't have presented it better. I love it when the audience is allowed to put two and two together by themselves." -- Figaro

"I'd definately have to say it was intense, emotionally. I was actually worried that Arthur's son was going to die. That is how mature the episode was; no one was sure if everything was going to turn out all right. The bloodied stump, the surgery, then when he let Orm plummet to his death - took me for a ride, I'll tell ya that." -- bloodone

"It was tense, and very dramatic. The scene where Aquaman cut off his hand had me on the edge of my seat, the hairs on the back of my neck standing up! This was only second to the death of Robin's parents in BTAS." -- calhoun07

"I would probably agree with Berkowitz. I dunno if I'd mind if I had kids (heaven forbid!) and they saw that ep., but I could definitely see how some parents would take it badly if their kid saw Aquaman let his brother die like that. The removal of the hand, while not actually shown, could've bothered some little kids too." -- Joe Tully

"Intense is right! I didn't notice one mistake in the animation! The camera angles added to the excitement-- MEGA! It was a non stop battle scene the whole episode!! .....I can see why Stan said it wasn't for kids. The Aquaman and son tied up scene wasn't for kids, at all. I actually thought his son might die (ya never know!) 5 bloody stars from me!" -- The Flash

"...when they say "too intense for children", I expect them to mean it. But in no way was I at all stunned, shocked, or even slightly wary of my little sister walking in. I mean, maybe if they actually showed him slicing his hand off, or showed blood dripping from the wound, I might reconsider." -- Matt Wilson
