While I really enjoyed "The Demon Reborn", even I could admit that the magic-staff bit was silly. So, I gave my vote to Knight Time, a really nicely done episode that features cameos from everyone: Roxy Rocket, Comissioner Gordon, Batman, Riddler, Penguin, Bane, Mad Hatter and Brainiac! It was really nicely done - tight scrip, fine animation and great pacing.

I voted for Knight Time. I just love those scenes with Superman trying to be all tough like Batman, and then when he beats the crap out of Bane! Plus, this seems more like a Bats episode to me, so I liked it even more! :)

I was never a fan of Dr. fate more of a Dr. Strange guy previously. But i voted for The Hand of Fate, which was definately one of my favorite Superman TAS eps and made me love the Fate character.

I liked all of em but my fav is probably "In Brightest Day" "Knight Time" and "Heavy Metal" are close though.
And and i loved "The Worlds Finest"?

I'm really fond of "Heavy Metal" cause Steel is one of my favorite characters I hope he shows up in a JL episode focus on Metropolis with Supergirl :D

My vote was a three-episode race between "Knight Time", "Speed Demons", and "In Brightest Day.", but hey, look at my avatar.

In Brightest Day.

Hands Down.

What about "A Fish Story" with Aquaman, or "New Kids in Town" with the Legion of Super Heroes?

"In Brightest Day" I think is probably the best team-up, though "Apokolips...Now!" is higher on my list of favorite episodes. I'm also very partial to "The World's Finest" and "Knight Time." "Speed Demons" was also cool, but Flash was just too annying from my tastes.

And don't you mean Robin (TD) -- not TR?

Speed Demon's was cool, but Flash seemed a bit overdone. Brightest Day get's my vote. I think it was among the best team up choices ever, and pulled off quite well.

Even though I love the team-up in KNIGHT TIME, I think that the team-up with the Flash worked the best out of the given choices.

Ultimately though, you can't do much better than the team-up of Bats and Supes in World's Finest. :)

I liked "The Main Man" Lobo team up. Why? Well, it's Lobo. :D

I really liked "The Demon Reborn" and "Knight Time" cause they both had my favorite character! "Knight Time" was funny because Superman tried to be Batman. He even fooled Brainiac!

Knight time.

The part where Supes mimicks Robin's voice cracks me up every time.

I liked Brightest Day, but my favorite out of all those listed was Knight Time. I loved when he first appeared in the Batman outfit, and the cop next to Gordon asks. "Does he look bigger than usual?"

I might have voted for Knight Time except for one major gripe: The character defining/destroying 'evidence' of Bruce smiling. Otherwise, I absolutely loved everything else about it.

But, In Brightest Day pulled off everything that, not only a team-up episode should do, but a Green Lantern pilot should have done. Kyle was a great character, and the artist angle really made the ring look like both the universe's most powerful weapon, and the most fun one. Sinestro kicked major booty as well, and the backstory of the him and the Corps by the Guardians is a classic scene.


On Second Thought: Altho In Brightest Day was a great ep, Supes and Kyle didn't really 'team up' so to speak. And Supes wasn't really all that needed except for exposition. I think I'd rather say The Main Man was the better true Team-Up episode

Did anyone actually like the Legion of Superheros?
I thought they and the episode sucked. And Chamelion boy(?) was really annoying. Liked the way they used Lana and the young Clark who also plays Snapper Carl in JL.

Well, I didn't make the poll, but Aquaman was pretty much an antagonist in A Fish Story, not a team-up, and in New Kids, "Superman" wasn't really in the episode. Oh, and World's Finest just wouldn't be a fair comparison, hehe.

Anyway, I'm for Knight Time. I don't think it's the best episode, but it's the best team-up. Robin holding his own with Superman was very cool to watch.

I was initially thinking of "Knight Time", but the Lobo episode was very cool, and I ended up going for that. Knight Time was more of an examination of the differences of character between Batman and Superman, whereas the Lobo episode was more of a showcase for Superman...plus Lobo was so darn cool.

In Brightest Day gets my vote. Truly one of the best STAS episodes made. It makes me yearn for a GL:TAS or even a "Brave and the Bold" series, with Kyle and Wally. Even though I like John Stewart as GL on Justice League, I'd like to see Kyle somewhere back in the animated universe.

In Brightest Day. Kyle's one of my favorite characters and they just portrayed him so well. His rejection letter from DC . . . and then when he finds the ring . . . "Someone's been eating CrackerJacks!" :D
