Just thought I'd pass this along to all of you. I wanted to help put this whole Injustice Gang/Secret Society thing together because there's been so much darn confusion about the two teams! Hopefully this will go up on the Justice League website that I'm designing.

So, what do you all think? I was surprised to see that, out of all the teams listed, the Legion of Doom has had/will have the most members appear on The Batman/Superman Adventures and on Justice League. Okay, the Secret Society of Super-Villains has one more than the Legion, but they also have thirty-six members!

I also can't help but wonder how flexible the lineups are. I mean, that's a lot of characters. Sure, some of them are padding and probably won't appear (come on, Funky Flashman? The Monocle?) but there are some interesting characters listed that might appear. Not to mention, by the way, the characters that have appeared and might appear again: Scarecrow, Bizarro, Brainiac, Riddler, Toyman, Vandal Savage, and Ocean Master [Orm] are all potential future members. Heck, even Harley Quinn might be a possibility (instead of the Golden Age Harlequin)!

As long as the Joker and Lex Luthor are in, I'm cool.

I wonder how all the Injustice Gang members and JL members will get air time? Thats alot of major characters for two episodes.

Well, assuming all the Leaguers appear, that's 15 characters Timm and Co. have to deal with. I can't wait :)

See, that's what was always so great about the old Superfriends vs. the Legion of Doom episodes. They were inSANE! There were like two billion characters, they all had screentime, and the episodes were pretty cool. I can't wait.

I'm noticing that Lex Luthor, Star Sapphire, and the Ultra-Humanite are the only members that show up in both versions of the team. Why do you think that those two impressed Luthor so much while the Shade, Cheetah, Copperhead, Solomon Grundy, and the Joker didn't?

:o

Okay, I can imagine why the Joker didn't.

:D
