Legion of Superheroes-Volume 1

"...nicely fills in the hole that was left when "Teen Titans" went off the air...a fantastic series and a worthy addition to the Warner/DC animated line.  David Cornelius, DVD Talk
"...looks downright amazing. Colors really pop and the overall image is clean and crisp...I love the theme for this show! Simply put, it rocks!  Kent Dixon, DVD Verdict

Editor's Note Four animated episodes comprise this kid-friendly release, which features a young Clark Kent--not yet in possession of his full powers as Superman--who is whisked away into the future to help a group of youthful superheroes save the universe from impending doom. Together the team--Brainiac 5, Bouncing Boy, and Saturn Girl--try to help the timid Kent realize his true destiny.

The Legion of Superheroes was never as big a superhero team-up comic book title such as JLA or The Avengers. The title however had a dedicated following since its creation in 1958 that kept it going throughout the years, but it's still surprising that they managed to get their own Saturday morning TV cartoon show...In a Jetsons version of the 31st century, a group of teenaged superheroes travel back in time to enlist the legendary Superman to help them battle a team of powerful supervillains...Long-time fans of the comic will recognise the characters as an amalgamation of their comic book counterparts throughout the years...Unfortunately some of the original costume designs weren't kept, but then again this is an all-ages cartoon series...The animation is highly stylized (it took us one whole episode to get used to those elongated necks to be honest) in the same way that other WB Kids shows such as Teen Titans, Batman Beyond and JLA are. But the tone is quite light, the pacing fast and the writing okay. Plus the futuristic cityscapes and designs are always fun. If you're into superhero comics then you can safely watch Legion of Superheroes with your little 'uns...Let's face up to it: kids' cartoons have come a long way since the days of Superfriends.
