This episode had a huge revelation about one of the missing members, Aqualad. Many saw this coming, but Aqualad has turned evil! (Or so we think) Aqualad probably had the short end of the stick last season when it comes to character development. But Weisman and co seem to be setting up a important character arc for him this season. Hopefully he's a double agent or he will reform sometime this season. But Kaldur's character just got a billion times more interesting. Also Nightwing, Superboy, and Lagoon Boy confronting Aqualad is probably my favorite scene this season so far.
But you could also understand why he turned evil, the girl he loved ditched for his best friend, The Team blew him away back in "Alpha Male". And Tula is dead now. Life must suck for poor Kaldur. Also now, because of this episode, we now know who falls and dies on the YJ Videogame.
This episode answered questions bit also raised new ones. Sometime in the episode, a shadowy figure planted an alien bomb. But who was it? The Light and Black Manta seem to be talking about a new partner. They're a new partner, so they can't be Apokiliptan. I'm betting my money on the Reach (Where Blue Beetle's scarab originated from) or the White Martians. But time will tell.
Also we had the anwser to what happened during the 16 hours. Now 8 of some of the League's heavy hitters are going on trial on Rimbor. This not will not end well. But I liked the Team's goodbyes to the League.
Superman also gave Conner a Kryptonian name, Kon-El, and he also called him "little brother". I guess Superman technically still dosen't want to be Conner's dad, interesting.
Great episode! "Invasion" has finally hit it's stride!
5/5
But god I cannot wait next for week, spoilers had revealed what will happen next week. So pumped.
