----Justice League Unlimited---
----Season 3, Episode 5.---
-------FLASH AND SUBSTANCE-------
Finally, An Episode Where Being The Flash is OK!!!!!!
There aren´t many episodes focusing "The Flash" in the "Justice League" and "Justice League Unlimited" series and most of the time, he is only valued because of his power, not because his virtues as a human being. Most of the time, Flash functions as a comical relief for the series and he does it pretty well, nevertheless, the Justice League series, being spin-offs of both Batman and Superman animated series, maybe focus too much in these two leading heroes and the different way in which each one of them deals with trouble. Actually, having these two opposite yet similar personalities interacting along the episodes is sometimes even the best part of the show. Nevertheless, Flash is a character that has also been many decades as a favorite of the public and maybe he deserved more episodes where he was the star. Even when all of the original 7 founding members of this version of the Justice League: Superman, Wonder Woman, Batman, Green Lantern (John Stewart), Hawkgirl, Martian Manhunter and The Flash are all focused in one episode or another, I think they lasted too long in writing an episode showing how cool The Flash really is, not because of his powers, but because of the man behind them and how he manages to deliver not only justice but also joy, hope and a bit of fun to his city.
Thanks for reading.
