Young Justice: The Complete First Season [Blu-ray]

I am very new to the animated DC universe, I had heard that it was far better than the movies so this was among the first shows I got. I really enjoyed this series, it has a lot of the main Justice League characters, (Batman, Superman, Flash, Wonder Woman, Martian Man Hunter, ect.) but it tells the story of their sidekicks, at the start it's Robin, Kid Flash, and Aqua Lad, after discovering Super Boy they decide they deserve to be treated like real member of the League and not just sidekicks. They are given a secret base and are handed missions by Batman, trained by Black Canary, and Red Tornado is like their Mentor/Supervision. Most if not all of their missions are revolving an organization called The Light. Overall the series was really good, I enjoyed watching the young heroes learn more about themselves and each other. They start out not really knowing how to operate as a team and struggling to find their own individuality after being in the shadow of their respective mentors. the addition of Miss Martian and Artemis is a welcome treat to break up the boys club and it adds some humor as the guys try and (sometimes) fail to impress the girls. Overall, it is a fun and interesting series, full of action, humor, and suspense. The characters are all very likable (except the villains) and I find them potentially more relatable than the major Justice League members.

I grew up on DC super-heroes. I found this title because of the quality of DC animated movies and their current crop of live-action series. Articles on the upcoming TNT series "Titans" kept referring to this show. What I found to be really nice about Young Justice for someone with my DC background, I had a some knowledge of characters (like Dick Grayson and Wally West. The characters who I wasn't familiar with (Conner, Kaldur'ahm, Megan, and Artemis) were developed and pretty well done. I got invested in them. Greg Weisman, and Brandon Vietti really created a show that explored the psychology and relationships between the team and then juxtaposed that to their psychology and relationships with the Justice League. And it had a very nuanced touch. Something I hadn't expected and have never seen in other DC animated series. This really feels like one of DC's animated movies. In a lot of ways it's significantly better than many of the DC animated movies. My only criticism of Young Justice is of season two (which was still very well done btw). I don't know that I can accurately diagnose what was unfulfilling about the second season. Except to say that it didn't seem like they had me as emotionally invested in the characters. And it also seemed like they were trying jam-pack every ounce of the storyline into that 20 episode arc. Also the relationship to the JL seemed contrary to what was setup in season one. In a lot of ways, the Young Justice "team" seemed to be running the JL which didn't seem realistic given the world that had been setup in season one. But both seasons were very well done. I hope the show-runners for TNT's Titans pay attention to the numerous fans of Young Justice and what they liked about this series.

Great Release. Fantastic to finally have one of the best DC series complete first season on BLU RAY! A must buy for any fan of the show. Young Justice had a great plot with terrific well executed story lines. This is an excellent product that has finally been released. Every episode of the show is exciting and it only gets more compelling as it continues. This is worth your money. For $25 you receive 26 full episodes in 1080p. There are no bonus features although this shouldn't stop you from buying this spectacular t.v series on BLURAY! Super boy, Robin, Artemis, Kid Flash, Miss Martian and Aqualad are all interesting well written characters. Throughout each episode relationship and plot lines develop. The climatic finale will leave you wanting more. Young Justice lasted for 46 episodes which are separated into 2 different seasons. Unfortunately Young Justice was cancelled before its time. If there was a season 3 every fan would have been bursting with joy. Overall, a great release. Enjoy watching every jaw dropping moment of Young justice season 1.

An amazing show that never should have been cancelled. This show tackled serious issues, had great characters and an amazing story. Highly recommend.

I'm generally not a fan of animated shows preferring live action because of the realism and generally more older audience targeted. This series is really well-done and sad that there are only 2 seasons. The storytelling is phenomenal that I forget I'm watching animation. It deals with themes of acceptance/fitting in, proving yourself and being patient with your own mistakes, identity, friendship/teamwork, and sacrifice. None of the Young Justice League's members are perfect and they learn to own that. Great show and want more!

Young Justice is an excellent show with stunning visuals, great writing, and good characters. Not all the jokes hit, but there's usually something else that overshadows it, whether it be the fight choreography or the music. The show itself is worth 5-stars. The package it comes in is not. Video: Now here is the reason why a Young Justice fan should buy the Blu-ray version over the DVDs. The visual quality is stunning. The lines are crisp and the colors are vibrant where they are needed to be and still easily defined where they are not. I've already mentioned above that the show's visual quality and attention to detail in action scenes makes the show worthwhile and the higher quality that the Blu-ray offers over the DVDs is easily seen on a television screen. Audio: English 2.0 only. Personally I wasn't expecting anything else, so this was fine. Some fans who prefer 5.1 however are out of luck. Design: Getting a bit mean here. The case itself feels cheap due to it's light weight. There's no inside cover art and the discs art is just a blue-filtered Kid Flash and Robin on Disc 1 and 2, respectively. That's just a minor thing though and can be easily overlooked. Extras: Here's the main flaw which brings down the rating to a four star. Simply put, there are none. No commentary, no behind-the-scenes, nothing dealing with anything to do with the making of the show, not even random screenshots that some shows or movies have in the menu section. As someone who enjoys watching these things, whether it's good or bad, this is a major disappointment. Even the DVDs had extras (A few pages from several different comics shown in a slideshow... meh). Any fan planning to buy this should know beforehand that the Blu-ray edition comes with all of Season 1's episodes... and should not expect anything else. Menu: Why am I putting this up? Because the menu to a DVD or Blu-ray is one of the first things a person sees of the show. It's a chance to introduce them to the music or some of the clips to set a mood for the action, comedy, romance, .etc. It's something that most people don't really take notice of unless something is off about it. Young Justice Season 1's menu falls into the latter category. There is no music to play in the background while you make your choices. The characters stand in static poses similar to the end of the first intro for both discs, and yet they are standing in front of a bright blindingly white background with the Young Justice logo in the top right-hand corner along with the disc number. There are only three options arranged at the bottom: Play All, Subtitles: On (Off), and Episode Selection. No settings for audio, and no scene selection for individual episodes. Again, this is disappointing and just screams of the lack of effort put forward into making an appealing Blu-ray version of a show that deserves more. Should you buy it? If you haven't bought the first season on DVD yet, I would suggest buying the Blu-ray for both it's visual quality and the fact that you would have to purchase more DVDs (Either three Volumes plus Dangerous Secrets or the 3-Pack fun version and Dangerous Secrets). It's nice to have a season all in one case. If you already own the show on DVD, then weigh the pros and cons before buying. After all, if sales do well on the first season, then there may be a chance for a season 2 Blu-ray edition to complete the Blu-ray collection for another show well-worth watching.

One of the all time best DC animated shows, which was cancelled far before its time. Young Justice follows a team of superhero sidekicks as they attempt to discover their own identities away from their adult mentors. Initially following Robin, Kid Flash, and Aqualad, the team grows to include Superboy, Miss Martian, Artemis, and occasionally Speedy (later Red Arrow). Throughout season one, the team clashes with a mysterious organization known as "the Light" that seems to connect to dozens of classic DC super villains. When it is revealed that a mole has infiltrated the team, the young heroes also must struggle with trust issues and they grow closer together. Featuring great cameos from the DC mainstays, but while also doing a tremendous job of establishing these oft-overlooked young heroes (Artemis, Miss Martian, and Aqualad are especially aided by their appearance here), Young Justice is a straight-up modern classic for DC fans.

Oh my god, this show is so good! I would rate it #1 animated superhero show of all time. The animation is stunning, the choreography is pure genius, and the dialogue is a collection of script mosaics! The plots are so suspenseful, the characters are so lifelike and easy to relate to and feel for and the story is so gripping. I bet the network who decided to cancel this awesome show thinks that was the biggest mistake of their lives! Can't wait for season three this year, I hope it's as good as the first two.

Love the DVD, love the show, characters are awesome.

Das DCAU ist einfach so viel besser als das DCU. Ich mochte die erste Staffel wirklich sehr und kann sie nur empfehlen.

FAST DISPATCH , ARRIVED BEFORE TIME AND IN GOOD CONDITION , COULD HAVE PUT SOME BUBBLE RAP AROUND BLU RAY . ITEM LIKE NEW AS DESCRIBED BY SELLER . PLAYS PERFECTLY . RECOMMEND SELLER .

Excelente serie de DC, los personajes tienen una gran caracterización y la animación es impecable. Una de las series de DC que entretiene tanto a los niños como a los adultos.

Eine der Besten DC Animations Serien! Ich habe die Serie in englischer Original Sprache bestellt. In deutscher Sprache gibt es die Serie bisher leider nicht, was wir DC Anhänger alle ziemlich schade finden. Es ist so eine gute hochwertige Serie. Die Zeichnungen und Animationen sind überragend. Wir vermuten halt, da Batman keine Hauptrolle spielt, "traut" sich das sichere Deutschland mal wieder nicht Gelder in eine deutsche Synchronisation zu investieren. Vielleicht können wir ja in den nächsten Jahren, nach dem der Comic Trend endlich Deutschland erreicht hat, mit einer deutschen Synchronisation rechnen.
