Young Justice: Invasion- Ep. 2 "Earthlings" Review

Well, in Weisman (and Vietti) I trust.

This was a huge step up from Invasion's incredibly lackluster season Priemere. I liked this episode a lot.

This episode was very character focused, we had some nice reveals about Superboy, M'Gann, and Beast Boy.

I really enjoyed Adam Strange here, he was a fun character. Rann was a neat setting, it had a nice jungle type to it.

The real meat of this episode was Superboy/M'Gann. In a nice plot twist, we find out that Conner is actually the one that broke up with M'Gann, with reasons left unknown. But the ending makes it makes it fairly clear why the broke up...more on that in a bit.

I enjoyed Beast Boy, he was a fun comedy relief character, he reminded me a lot of Wally. But we also had a tragic revelation about Gar, his mom was killed by Queen Bee. Heh, more like Queen Bi***. Poor Gar :(

But oh man that ending, was just phenomenal. M'Gann just pretty much mind wipes a defenseless Krolotean, exposing her murderous side. M'Gann has became one of the more interesting characters of this show, and Superboy obviously broke up her because of the mind wiping. M'Gann also knows what happened during those missing 16 hours. Can't wait to see where this goes.

Anyways, great episode. 4/5
