Young Justice "Agendas" Review

This episode knocked it out of the park. It was just that good. First and foremost, Superboy is my favorite member of the Team. His complicated relationship with Superman and his desire to live up to him, just made me love the character. This episode was about Superboy's return to Cadmus, and trust me, it did not dissapoint.

There was also a major subplot. the League voting on new members. Among the candidates were the Team (except Artemis, I believe) Icon and Rocket, Plastic Man, Red Arrow, Atom, Blue Devil, and Guy Gardner. We also see the League questioning their trust with Batman, Dr. Fate, and Captain Marvel. Batman saving Robin in order for Dick not to become like him, just gave A LOT more depth to Batman, and one of my of my favorite parts of the episode. Hal and John's reaction to Guy was just icing on the cake :)

This episode major plot was about Superboy, we find out about his programming, origin, and his half human donor. We also see the return of Cadmus, which is definitely a dream come true. We also have confirmation that Guardian is Red Arrow's uncle.....which is interesting.....

We also have Lex Luthor return. And think I like YJ Luthor more than DCAU Luthor. It's probably that his voice actor does an amazing job, and Luthor just seems more sinister here. We also have the revelation that there was a super clone before Superboy, named Match. I have to say, I definitely got a Superboy Prime vibe...

The episode ended with Superboy's second father is Lex Luthor and he has secret programming. Superboy's chance of being the mole has upped immensely.

I really, really, liked this episode. God, this show gets better with every episode.

GREAT episode,

4 and a half/5
