Other than Luthor and the already planned Darkseid of course.

My vote goes to Brainiac indefinitely. He would kick all of their butts. Except for Batman's though. Batman would throw some kinda dohickey from his belt and cause Brainiac to get a computer virus or something.

Well since we've already gotten Luthor, Darkseid is confirmed for season two, and Brainiac is the next logical choice. I'll vote for Jax-Ur & Mala. Quite simply I want to see the League go up against two fully charged from a yellow sun Kryptonians, who play by their own rules, don't hold back, and are out for world domination and revenge. That and a story featuring Jax-Ur & Mala would all but force the writers to make Superman super.

Of course I only want it to happen if they can do the story without ignoring "Absolute Power".

Brainiac definitly.

Because of his name recognition and appearances on Superfriends, I think that Brainiac would be the next logical character to appear (in fact, I've speculated that he will show up, as you can see here (http://www.toonzone.net/shows/justiceleague/brainiac/brainiac.htm)).

I'd like to see Metallo again, but only if they got Malcolm McDowell to do his voice again (and he got rid of that ripped up skin and went Terminator style like in Action Figures). Mr. Mxyzptlk could be fun - maybe he'd wear Bat-Mite's costume in one scene! And Jax-Ur and Mala are pretty much dead, so I don't see them returning.

However, put me down for an appearance by the Parasite. Imagine him draining the abilities of Batman! Finally, they could tie him into Amazo's origin, since they have similar powers (Dr. Ivo breaks him out of prison in order to duplicate his powers onto his android).

Hey, that's right I keep forgetting about Amazo. Classic JLA villian. I like your idea Karkull. Is that from the comics or did you make this up?

I voted for Mxy. All the others are great choices, I'd just love to see how the JL would handle him.

I think it would be cool if Brainiac got into the watchtower's computers. The watchtower is then losing it's orbit and is going to crash into a city. It would be cool if the Justice League were trapped in the watchtower to fight Brainiac within the watchtower. The whole episode should take place in the watchtower so they can fully explore the watchtower.

So many good choices! But if I had to pick, I'd go with The Parasite. He's one of my favorite villains, and it'd be interesting to see him surrounded by seven heroes whose powers he could acquire just by a single touch (although GL probably would be able to protect himself with his ring).

I surprised myself by voting Parasite, given that my first instinct would be a "major threat" type like Mxy or Brainiac. Given the right set of circumstances, Parasite could be an increadible opponent, given seven major resources. It would give the writers the opportunity to distinguish between the characteristics of knowledge, ability, personality, and external aids. Apparently, only the first two of these characteristics can be drained by Parasite. In my mind, this leaves Superman, J'onn and the Flash as the most vulnerable and dangerous to be drained, and Green Lantern as the least, but it would be very interesting to see the writers' take. It could shed more light on what makes each hero tick.

I made it up, actually. Thanks.

I think it'd be great to see a Brainiac episode on JL--perhaps an adaptation of the comic story "Panic in the Sky"....? Also, the Parasite would make a great addition to the JL rogue's gallery. It could be a GL focused episode, seeing that he's the only one who could conceivably hold him off...the only one I'm not partial to is Mxy...he's just not (IMHO) portrayed that well in STAS...and Metallo would be cool....matter of fact, I'd go for all of them (except Mxy)!

I am partial to a Brainiac episode especially a "Diehard" style battle against a Brainiac controlled Watchtower. Although I think they should have only a few heroes in this episode.

Batman being the computer genius would be in it. Martian Manhunter as it is technically his home and he'd be the one who knows where absolutely everything is. And maybe Flash and Hawkgirl inside with them too. Superman could be on the outside actually fighting the robot version of Brainiac and maybe throw in the rest of the team with WW and GL.

Also, I like Parasite too. And him taking on JL is a good idea. I'd like to see this happen in some form. A shame the voice of Parasite passed away. He was the guy from Blade Runner and 5th Element.

I voted for Mr. Myxlptlk. I do think that a better adversary, someone far superior in intelligence and yet just as powerful, would be available from the Superman series. The redhead from the Fifth Dimension- Gsptlsnz. I have to admit, for a cartoon gal, she gave a rather sexy fashion show. So, not only would she be a considerable threat, she provides wonderful aesthetic qualities as well.

Was Bizarro just added? I'd like to see him appear too - imagine a Bizarro/Solomon Grundy team up!

I'm pretty sure that he's been there since the start of the poll. When I voted it was one of the choices. I found it odd that nobody had picked him...

Why not just have a Superman Revenge Squad with most or all of the above? I bet it would make for great television, sorta like an "Almost Got 'im" for Kal-El.

that would be awesome. id love to see a superman version of 'almost got im' .

But i voted for Brainiac. He was a very formatable opponent in stas, so he could give the JL a good fight. Maybe wed even get some good superman scenes and character development, but im sure well see that in the DARKSEID ep!!!!!

but, i never really liked metallo's character too much so i didnt vote for him.

what about toyman?? i think hed be a good villian in JL. hes alot like a bat villian if you think about it. maybe he could team up w/ a bat villian to take on the JL. i can see him teaming with mad hatter or, hehe, how about baby doll!! so many possibilities.... :D

Hmm this is a difficult question to answer, so lets take a look at them individually.

Bizarro: Was never a true villian on Superman: The Animated Series. Much more of a sympathetic character than was portrayed in, oh say, the Superboy series from the early 90's.

Brainiac: While his character became progressively weaker as the series wore on, Brainiac, if suitibly powered, could rival the League. However, it would take a "gimmick" like being trapped in the Watchtower under his control for the story to work I think (or perhaps a direct rip-off of the comics-- Panic in the Sky perhaps?)

Mr. Myxlptlk: A fun once-in-a-while villian, he could hardly take on the league alone. Pair him with Bat-mite and you might have a fun "goof" story

Parasite: What if the Parasite managed to steal Supermans powers and then used those powers to capture Batman? That could make for an epic adventure for Green Lantern and The Flash-- the big guns won't be availible to bail them out.

Metallo: Another villian who became progressively weaker as the series went on, he probably shouldnt show up unless he is part of a team...

Jax-Ur & Mala: At full power they would be a match for the League. Pair them with Parasite and Metallo as part of a Superman Revenge Squad.....

Looks like Jax-Ur and Mala are my pic, but all of them could easily appear as part of a team. (Secret Society of Supervillians perhaps?)

I think Metallo would be a challenge for the whole JL
