From Comics Continuum by way of mistervimes:

Originally targeted for late spring/early summer, new episodes of Justice League Unlimited will now air beginning in February on Cartoon Network.

The first new episode will air Saturday, Feb. 11 at 10:30 p.m. Nine new episodes, Nos. 31-39 of JLU, are expected.

Cartoon Network has yet to release specifics for the schedule.

The big list of things to remember.

Infinite Crisis #4 - Bad dog!

I like the Modern Age. I like the Silver Age, the Golden Age, the Bronze Age and the Iron Age. But I'll be the first to admit that mixing them successfully takes a delicate touch.

Infinite Crisis #4 spoilers behind cut
Having a Silver Age icon decapitate, dismember, flash-fry and punch holes in other heroes is not a light touch, nor is having said icon kick the crap out of a dog. Just for reference.

While I'm sure this will all be explained as either "Earth-1's influence on Superboy" or "Luthor's influence on Superboy" by the end of the story, it's still a bad call. To be honest, I've never followed any of the Superman/Superboy stuff, but I respected the characters and their status as the standard by which other heroes are judged. This is just kinda distasteful, and I think it could have been handled better.

That said, Superboy's a shoe-in for the gold in the '08 Olympics' Krypto Toss.

There will be stuff here later, mostly about comic books. Hey, it's comic book day, I'm sure I'll have something to say tomorrow.
