copperhead in the justice league

[Justice League 2000]

hello friends who going to voice copperhead in justice league?
let me know. :)

[DarkLantern]

What do you think, Nothing? Should I tell him/her, or should you?

They'll all find out in a few days anyway...

Actually, I'm new to some of the members of the Injustice Gang. Can anyone tell me who Copperhead is, his special powers and who is arch-rival is with the Justice League?

[Green Lantern]

I believe Copperhead was originally a Wonder Woman villain. (I could be dead wrong.)

Does the fact that the Injustice Gang is comprised entirely of arch-foe after arch-foe bother anybody else? It seems so cliché to me to just use the #1 villains of each Leaguer. Why couldn't we get a little mix?

Or do you guys prefer they use the age-old two-dimensional formula?

We did get a mix. Lex Luthor, Joker, and Cheetah have their respective arch-foes in the Justice League; but Star Sapphire, Copperhead, Shade, Solomon Grundy, and the Ultra-Humanite don't.

Star Sapphire was a Green Lantern enemy, but not of John Stewart. Her enemy was Hal Jordan. The same goes for Solomon Grundy, who was an enemy of Alan Scott.

Copperhead is a DC villain who doesn't really have anyone (he has faced Wonder Woman and Batman in the past, though).

The Shade is an enemy of the Golden Age Flash (Jay Garrick), not Wally West.

The Ultra-Humanite may have started out as a Superman villain, but he hasn't been an opponent of his for years.

Karkull,

While I can agree that we get at least SOME change, the villains to the heroes (while not necessarily their alter egoes) are the same. Star Sapphire to GL. Shade to Flash. Etc. Etc.

And yes, Copperhead may be the exception, but when you stop and think about it long enough, why include COPPERHEAD at all? ;)

Because he was in the Secret Society of Super-Villains?

James Tucker loves him. That's why the Ultra-Humanite's in the Gang as well.

I guess I don't see it as a problem. This will be the first time that many of these guys will be on a Timm cartoon. I'm pretty sure that they won't exclusively fight their heroic counterparts.

Besides, who would they put on to replace them? Their worst villains?

I don't think that's really the case either. Just the fact that there are eight bad guys and only seven good guys provides a little diversity. Plus J'onn and Hawkgirl don't have any traditional foes in the group.

Ditto. My knowledge of DC superheros begins and ends with the cartoon incarnations. Could some kind soul give a quick summary of the 'newcomers' to the animated format?

Check out Toon Zone's Justice League page, located here (http://www.toonzone.net/shows/justiceleague/). I know that it's an informative site...because I designed it to be one, :rolleyes:.

Copperhead isn't a big time villain.

Dose anyone know of Copperhead's origin? Judging from his designs, his face looks like it could be mutated.

That is a pretty nifty site...

Why, thank you. You deserve a lot of that credit, by the way, for giving me permission to use your quotes.

I'll update Copperhead's page some time this week (ditto for the Shade, Star Sapphire, Solomon Grundy, etc.). As for his origin, however, I don't think that it was ever really revealed.

[DarkLantern]

Jose Tenque? What happened to Efran Figueroa?

In the comics, Copperhead got his powers through a special "snake suit" (corny, I know). In JL, however, he seems to be a mutant or a splicer (years ahead of his time, of course).

And Copperhead's no wimp. Sure, the JL can take him down easy, but he has taken Batman down -- nearly killed him too.

I think your way off on this Green.


So way off your point makes little sense.

This Injustice Gang ...(atleast the one thats hit the airwaves in
Fury ) is not comprised of main #1 arch rivals.

Its an ecclectic mix of second stringers redesigned to be
a threat.

If this were truly just a arch rival by arch rival team...

wed have ended up with a team more reminiscent of the
Legion of Doom from Superfriends.

Atleast the didnt use Sinestro ... (a more recognizable villan
then Star Sapphire.)

The Shade is a pretty obscure villan whose chief rival was
Starman. He did originally appear as a villan for the 1st Jay Garric
Flash but that was ages ago ... when superman couldnt even fly but rather leaped tall buildings.

The lady swordsman whose name escapes me seems to be an
entirely new villaness created exclusively for the show.

I think your really stretching to issue that kind of a harsh
review.

And if your reffering to the team in the episode that hasnt even
aired yet ...well maybe you should reserve judgement till
youve actually seen what theyve done with the team.
