Young Justice

Young Justice

Young Justice is an animated series based on DC comics’ various “sidekick” heroes. The series follows the adventures of Robin, Aqualad, Kid Flash, Superboy, Miss Martian and Artemis, all of whom have been recruited by Batman to act as the Justice League’s covert-ops team. The series was developed and is co-produced by Greg Weisman in conjunction with Brandon Vietti.

The series is not an exclusive adaptation of the DC comic title of the same name but rather draws from all across over 70 years of DC canon, particularly the original Teen Titans, the Justice League of America as well as the original Young Justice comic series.

The series premiered on the 26th of November 2010 with a one hour movie but won’t commence regular airing until January 2011.

References to Gargoyles in Young Justice

• The pilot episode of Young Justice introduces us to what seem to be the main antagonists of the series, a group of shadowy conspirators calling themselves “The Light”. Some fans have already drawn comparisons between the Light and Gargoyles’s own Illuminati society. Both organisations are sinister secret societies that manipulate events from behind the scenes and whose names. It’s also worth noting that the latin word “illuminati” roughly translates as “the enlightened ones”.
