    So I decided that with this choice, I'm going to say that it includes the predecessor Justice League series. What, to me, sets Unlimited apart from all these other shows is the number of characters included in the program. Whether it be rouge villains or random sidekicks, Justice League Unlimited did an excellent job of capturing the team dynamic that makes the JL earth's protectors.

    Batman: The Animated Series was definitely ahead of its time. It pioneered having such a grim out look on the superhero lifestyle in cartoons, and did a great job of capturing Batman's dark demeanor.

    This X- Men show was awesome. It stayed true to most of the characters and almost too true to the books. With so many 'X' titles out at the time, having an ongoing animated series attempt to keep up proved to be difficult. The story were jumpy, and often questions were left unanswered of ambiguous. It's only now that, in my 20's, I can fully appreciate how hard this series was trying to fit into the X- Men canon.

    The mixed animation on this show was great. One thing that did bug me about this show, even as a child, is how guns were never used. Even then I can remember thinking "How did all these people get laser guns?"

    This show was incredibly silly at times, but still pretty good. Plus it did a great job of portraying the relationships these characters have with one another. The budding romance between Robin and Starfire, the big brother Cyborg is to Beast Boy, and of course Deathstroke's undying hate for the Titans.

    Just like JLU this show throws in tons of awesome characters, while also combining that goofy, kiddy feel Teen Titans had. One thing I love about this show that I'm sure goes over most kids' heads is how Batman is always shutting down the good mood other characters may have. Green Arrow and Plastic Man's quips and quotes are put down immediately by the caped crusader.

    Super Friends??? Are you serious? With the exception of a 60's super hero cartoon called The Impossibles, that was the worst super hero cartoon I've ever seen. I would move the #2 through #4 choices up one rank to # 1 through #3 and my #4 through #10 would be: 4) Gargoyles (if the Turtles count, so do they) 5) The Tick ( a great parody of super hero cliches) 6) Silver Surfer (from the 90's, it had really cool animation depicting outer space - can still be seen weekends on Disney XD) 7) Avengers- Earth's Mightest Heroes (currently on Disney XD) 8) Superman - The Animated Series 9) Incredible Hulk (lasted one year in the 90's- can still be seen weekends on Disney XD) 10) Popeye (given some of the stuff he does, he qualifies as a super hero

      Why are you questioning Ninja Turtles? That movie was awesome!

      Brave and the Bold is cool, but I think it's still too new. There's a possibility it might go downhill, ya know?

      And yes, TMNT! They're badass.

        Never went downhill. Brave and the Bold was one of the greatest things on TV. Damn them for cancelling it!
