Justice League Unlimited
Story
Justice League Unlimited is a 00’s Children’s TV cartoon.
Superman had seen that the Earth was in constant danger
from Aliens, Super Villains etc. so he proposed creating the
Justice League, a group of Superheroes to defend the
planet.
The Justice League consists of Batman, Superman,
Wonder Woman, The Flash, Supergirl, J'onn J'onzz
(coordinator), Captain Atom and many more.
Their base is a space station that orbits the planet Earth.
Here J’onn co-ordinates the Superheroes and arranges
them into teams for each mission.
The teams can be beamed down (a la Star Trek) or take
one of their many vehicles down to the surface.
Superman (voiced by George Newbern)
He comes from the doomed planet Krypton, which exploded when he
was a boy (where he was known as Kal-El). On Earth he has fantastic
powers and can fly. But when he isn't being Superman, then he lives his
life as his alter ego Clark Kent.
Once, he was found by Batman and Wonder Woman with a plant
growing out of his chest. He was totally disabled and in a dream like
state, where the plant gave him a vision of everything that his heart
could desire.
What Superman wanted more than anything was a family and he wasn't too pleased when he was
shown what he was missing in life. When he was freed, he went after the person who gave him
the plant...Mongol.
In the past he was brainwashed into attacking the people of Earth.
Justice League Unlimited Characters
Batman (voiced by Kevin Conroy)
Normally he works alone, so its a surprise that Batman has joined the
Justice League. His real name is Bruce Wayne and he’s in charge of
Wayne Industries.
He is quite a moody person and someone you don't want to get on the
wrong side of. Plus he’s not got a sense of humour, so don’t tell him a
joke.
Wonder Woman (voiced by Susan Eisenberg)
Her name is Diana and she is the Princess of a society of Immortal
Warriors. She has superhuman strength, can fly and is extremely agile,
which is very useful when engaged in battle.
She can use her wrist bands to deflect bullets and can use the Lasso of
Truth to force anyone caught in it to tell the truth. Diana also has at her
disposal the ‘Invisible Plane’, which she uses for long distances or
covert missions.
It is unknown whether she is the girlfriend of Batman, there is certainly some chemistry between
the two of them. She also has a fiery temper.
J'onn J'onzz (voiced by Carl Lumbly)
He is a Martian who co-ordinates the Justice League from the orbiting
space station.
He isn’t big on humour and doesn’t posses the ability to dream.
Lex Luthor (voiced Clancy Brown)
He is a supervillian who wasn't happy when Superman first appeared,
as he kept thwarting nearly all his schemes. So he made it his life's
ambition to kill Superman.
But after an accident he contracted cancer, which was brought on by
Kryptonite. So he began to wear a device that might prolong his life for
another 30 years or 30 minutes. Because of this he said that he wanted
his remaining time to have meaning and to make a positive impact on
the world.
The Question (voiced by Jeffrey Combs)
He is a man with no face (literally). He believes that there is a single
ongoing conspiracy going back through the ages, run by a cabal of
powerful individuals who direct the course of history. He says that the
common man likes to believe that these conspiracies don't exist.
Most of the things he comes across aren't conspiracies, but once in a
while he finds a real one. Such as the one where the government cloned
Supergirl to protect themselves against rogue superheroes.
To backup his theories he goes through the rubbish of people to find evidence and even the
rubbish of the Justice League!
Green Arrow (voiced by Kin Shriner)
He is an expert archer with a difference. The difference is that he has
special arrows, such as explosive ones, nets, gas, lines etc. He is super
fit, but resists joining the Justice League as he feels that it doesn't look
out for the common people. Obviously the other Justice League
members try to show him that isn't so, but he's not convinced.
His attitude changes slightly when the Justice League take a detour
while dropping him off. He finds that an enormous nuclear powered
robot has gone out of control and is destroying everything and is venting radiation. The robot was
built to repel foreigners from a certain country's boarders, but it went horribly wrong.
So he joins forces with the Green Lantern, Captain Atom and Supergirl to combat this menace.
Eventually, after the others have fallen in battle, he stops the robot by shooting a plutonium rod
into its chest panel. At this point he starts to understand that team work can bring down bigger enemies, but still feels he does not fit in.
He has more incentive to join when he spots a beautiful woman on the Justice League's space station.
Green Lantern (voiced by Phil LaMarr)
His real name is John Stuart and he is part of the Green Lantern Corps, which is a military organisation that is dedicated to
the protection of the galaxy.
He is a guy with attitude and gets very annoyed when Green Arrow turns down membership to the Justice League. He
cannot understand why anyone would do this!
He has some great abilities which draws power from the ring he wears. Such as flying, moving objects with energy from the
ring and conjuring up force fields. But these force fields can shatter when under extreme pressure, such as pressure from
the nuclear robot. When this happened he was in hospital for a while.
Captain Atom (voiced by George Eads / Chris Cox)
He has to wear a containment suit to keep himself together as he no longer has a physical body and is instead made up of
floating atoms, which is why he needs the suit to keep them together. He has the ability to drain/absorb atomic energy, but
there is a limit to how much he can take.
If his suit is damaged then you need to get as far away from him as possible, as he will explode sending his atoms flying.
Luckily for him, the Justice League are geared up for this eventuality as they have a team that suck up his atoms and pump
them back into a new suit (hopefully not losing many atoms in the process).
Supergirl (voiced by Nicholle Tom)
She is a teenager with attitude and is the cousin of Superman. She is strong and can also shoot laser bolts from her eyes.
She has been waiting for ages to be sent on a mission, but this seems to be down to some of the others being worried
about her lack of experience. When she did go on a mission some of their fears were realised, as she was headstrong,
unprofessional and reckless (so said the Green Lantern).
She seems to rush into situations without thinking, so potentially endangering other members of her team. But it sounds
worse than it really is, as she does lay her life on the line and does contribute to the team.
She was injured in the past when she defended the Earth from Superman (when he was brainwashed) and was rushed to Starr Labs to take care of
her injuries (she was in a coma). During this time, unknown to her, she was cloned.
Galatea (voiced by Nicholle Tom)
She is a clone of Super Girl who was made by the US Army as a defence against rogue Superheroes / Supervillians, after
the episode where Superman ran amok. She was accelerated into a woman and was trained to be smarter and faster than
the original Supergirl, who had no knowledge of this clone. Also she did many horrible things under the guidance of the
army.
This started to change when both the clone and the original Supergirl started to share their dreams. Galatea didn't like this,
as Supergirl was starting to give her a conscience for all the terrible things she had done. So she hatched a plan to kill the
original Supergirl, but her plans didn't go well.
For a start she was having second thoughts about killing Supergirl and when the original tried to find out who had created her then the army stepped
in and blasted Galatea into ashes. Or, that's what they wanted Supergirl to think (she was being put back together by the army).
Mongol (voiced by Eric Roberts)
He was humiliated by Superman in the past, so has been looking for a way to get back at him. He cleverly sent Superman a
gift for his birthday, which was a Black Mercy Plant, which incapacitated him and started to grow out of his costume/chest.
He thinks that all humans and Superheroes are inferior than him and lack intelligence. He felt that Superman was his only
person to stand in his way of being the ruler of Earth.
Ares (voiced by Michael York)
He is a god who likes to see chaos on Earth. To aid him in his quest, he asked his brother Efestus (who made Wonder
Woman's armour) to build him an indestructible suit of armour. He called it the Annihilator and made it heartless, which
would feed on the rage and misery of humans.
Ares also has the ability to take any form he desires which helps him progress his terrible plans.
Amazo (voiced by Robert Picardo)
He is an Android who was made by Professor Ivo. He evolved to a level where no one on Earth could offer anything to
himself, so he left. He can even use telepathy to communicate with others.
On his return to Earth he destroyed the Green Lantern Corps and the planet Oa, when they tried to defend themselves. He
then smashed through all of the Earth’s defences, including the Justice League. All this in order to get at Lex Luthor, the one
person who had previous taken advantage of him.
Instead of destroying Luthor, he wanted to ask him why he continued his quest for more power, when he had already got
more power than he could use. But the main thing he wanted was to get Luthor to tell him what his own purpose in life was. The advice to this
question was to observe evolution and make your own destiny.
It was then we found out that the Amazo hadn't destroyed the Green Lantern Corps, and the planet Oa had only temporarily been moved to an
alternate dimension. Dr Fate offered to help him on his journey to search for meaning. Amazo accepted his offer.
The Atom (voiced by John C. McGinley)
He is a an expert in nano technology and can shrink himself to the size of an atom, including others and items that touch
him.
Circe (voiced by Rachel York)
She is a goddess who was banished to the pits of Tarturus by Wonder Woman's mother (Hipolita), because she used to turn
innocent people into animals. When she was let out, she had to promise not to go after Hipolita, so instead she went after
her daughter, Wonder Woman, and turned her into a pig.
Circe had always wanted to headline at the Amp theatre, as she was jealous of her cousins the sirens who sang there.
Batman tracked her down to the theatre and had to make a bargain with her to release the spell from Wonder Woman if he
sang on stage with her. Surprisingly he agreed to these terms!
Mordred (voiced by Soren Fulton)
He is the son of Morgaine Le Fey, who is a great sorceress. She had been using her powers to keep her son forever young
and had great plans for him to become a powerful person. But he seized power sooner than she thought by taking the
Amulet of 1st Magic. It enabled him to banish anyone older than himself to an alternate dimension.
Mordred proclaimed himself ruler of Earth and all children. The only way the Justice League could fight back was to get
Morgaine Le Fey to transform Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman and Green Lantern into younger versions of
themselves. Once this happened then they were younger than Mordred and reappeared on Earth.
Mordred was beginning to get bored of his new status, but sprang to life when he saw that some members of the Justice League had returned. He
conjured up monsters to defeat them, but in a twist, they tricked him into turning himself into an adult which meant his spell was broken. This wasn't
the only spell that was broken, the one to keep him forever young was broken and he became an old man and his mother looked after him.
Booster Gold (voiced by Tom Everett Scott)
He is from the future (2462 AD) and his motto is ‘Protecting his past, to ensure your future’. He is accompanied by his
electronic pal, Skeets, who idolises him. But Skeets is the only one who does, as no one else believes in Booster Gold,
especially people from the Justice League. This is due to his obsession with fame and fortune. It’s this attitude that keeps
him on the sidelines in the Justice League, who even put in charge of crowd control. The public even mistake him for the
Green Lantern, which annoys him.
Its during crowd control that he reflects on his life and why he isn’t trusted, and gets despondent. It is then that he
accidentally finds himself in a real situation, when he rescues Dr Tracy Simmons from an explosion. She explains that an
alternate energy source has been let loose which could destroy all worlds. That an artificial black hole is being generated from her colleague, Dr
Brown, which is sucking everything into it.
Booster Gold is on is own and he decides to help. But while trying to put an inhibitor on Dr Brown, everything conspires to stop him, he even helps
deliver a baby on the way.. His friend Skeets is destroyed on the journey and he begins to doubt his Superhero talents. He confides that he was a
failure in the future and came to the past for a new beginning.
But Tracy believes in him and motivates him to complete his mission and he successfully manages to put the inhibitor collar on Dr Brown. Everything
that Dr Brown had consumed or destroyed was returned unscathed, including Skeets. Booster Gold learnt humility and no one saw what a hero he
really was, but he didn’t care he got the girl (Tracy).
