"Young Justice" News & Discussion Thread, Part 33 (Spoilers)

[SweetShop209]

It's interesting how he hasn't worked on a Young Justice episode since the episode Independence Day (though he may have done storyboards for other episodes). It'll be interesting to see what he does in season 4.

I just hope we avoid another sequence like that final fight with the Furies and Mantis .

Why is it interesting though? Because he only did the one? For YJ season 1, Jay Oliva and Michael Chang were the main directors while Liu, Chris Berkeley, Matt Youngberg, and Victor Cook were likely brought in as guest directors to help with the work load. He only directed the one episode "Fireworks." Nothing else credited. It's well established he went on to direct Avengers: EMH the same time I think as his YJ episode, Green Lantern: The Animated Series and Beware The Batman, then the DCU movies.

So in essence he has a pretty great Superhero animation pedigree .

Liu added he "helped storyboard on a few episodes."

Liu added he "helped storyboard on a few episodes."

That's almost just as promising. Man if J. Dos Santos would return to DC fare too.

It feels like it's been a long time since we have been given any info on the show.

Khary Payton commented he has "been a little more involved" in Phantoms.

What that means is up to interpretation: more Kaldur, characters he voices will appear more, he voices more new characters, etc.

My immediate takeaway is maybe he helped write an episode? It's not unheard of .

Although doesn't Payton already voice enough characters ?

 

[the greenman]

Kaldur may appear more, but with all the multiverse stuff going on nowadays, maybe we meet Teen Titans Victor.

According to this site, Young Justice Season 4: Release Date and Preview - OtakuKart, the release date for season 4 is August 24, 2021.

 

[RoyalRubble]

Haven't seen other sites reporting the August premiere date, so I'm not sure how accurate it is. Maybe a there will be a formal announcement or something at Wonder Con, but we'll see.

I don't recall HBO Max revealing that date last week as this site claims. It could be a fake date cobbled from the Outsiders season finale streaming on August 27, 2019.

I agree this is possible as I cannot find the original source. Still, an August start date is plausible.

 

[the greenman]

At this point that date is definitely feasible. However, I imagined a possible July date myself.

Okay, I think I see where this came from. This site, Young Justice Season 4 Release Date, News, talks about August 24 as a POTENTIAL release date. The author justifies this date by having compared to the release schedule of previous seasons. This is not a fact; it is a SURMISE. There is still no official release date. I am sorry about any confusion I may have caused. I just saw the date and got excited. I should have known better.

Part 2 of Whelmed podcast's interview with W&V.
-9:57: Greg clarifies the layout of Lucas Carr's property and confirms the interior of Lucas's house has not been seen yet.

-12:38: Greg confirms generally Outsiders was the season 3 they envisioned from early years. Some details that changed were the refugee crisis, the plan for Beast Boy, and use of social media.

-17:15: The audio play came from a desire to get some new material out there, were initially asked to set it during season 4 to which they declined but felt a prequel to was fair game so they could throw in hints and easter eggs. Contrary to how it's normally done, they had to figure out which actors were available on FanDome then write the lay, started from a list of 14 actors, then broke basics of story with Brandon Vietti, had little time to write it so he stayed up even later than he already does

-25:47: Commends what Jason has done with Forager

-27:38: Tigress becoming the new leader of the Team felt organic after Batgirl was for a time and after Miss Martian and everyone in the Anti-Light stepping back from being leaders and going back to being soldiers. At this point, Tigress is imminently qualified to be the leader. Artemis is 25 years old in season 4.

 

[ShadowStar]

It's nice that they clarified that Batgirl had a stint as leader of the Team in between seasons 2 and 3. The companion comic issue(s) that was/were released online right before the launch of season 3 did suggest that she was the leader in August of Team Year Six, but it's great to have confirmation!

Well...yeah. We basically got a better executed season 2 given they had to take down the enemy whilst the enemy was hiding in plain sight as a force for good + the whole experimented on meta kids subplot that introduced all these new characters including Virgil Hawkins but could barely develop them unlike the Outsiders.

And Virgil still got barely developed outside wanting a girlfriend and wordlessly being there for Black Lightning .
