Okay, nifty.

Pretty good line-up, although Miss Martian instead of Secret seems a bit Xerox-y. First Comics!Starfire was turned into Toon!Starfire, who was then adapted to the DC as Comics!Miss Martian, and now she'll be Toon!Miss Martian. Also, Spyke black Aqualad Blaqualad Aqualad who happens to be black is some hilarious tokenism. What was the matter with Empress? Would an equal ratio of boys to girls be so horrible?

I've been trying to figure out Aqualad for a while.

Could it be Koryak? He's from the comics - Aquaman's adult son with, I think, an aboriginal woman. That's the only thing I can think of that would make more sense.

I want to know what's with the no Wonder Girl.

The Wondy mythos is famously all-but-impossible to use in media adaptations.

Probably copyright issues. That's why she was never in Teen Titans.

The one in green is an amazon, I believe. That's their replacement for Wonder Girl.

No, the voice actress originally referred to her as Arrowette, and there's art of her holding a bow. It's possible that she's some kind of Arrow/Wonder hybrid, but she really looks like Green Arrow Jr. in those pictures.

Oh okay. I just read somewhere that there was going to be an amazon in there. Is this true?

[milleniumrex.livejournal.com]

Not that I know of.

I just read something about Artemis being in the league. That would be so cool if that's true. :)

Artemis is the archer girl. New codename, probably for Arrowette.

Here's the original artwork that makes the girl in Green look a lot like Arrowette.

Ahhh. I was thinking "Artemis" as in Wonder Woman. I was confusing my own self. LOL! Thanks so much for this pic. :D

That is totally rad. I really, really missed this art. Half of the reason why I never got into the recent Brave and Bold series.

Yeah, I'm curious to see what kind of backstory they come up with for black Aqualad. Could be awesome. :D

Now, see, at least if Artemis ever has to say "My face is up here", you can't claim that her costume isn't being helpful in that regard.

Damn it, Secret was one of my favourite parts of Young Justice!
(Also, Robin seems way too small here to say that he was arguably the main character of the comic.)

I have the same complaint about this as I did, once, about Justice League; you have a green person and two women. I think that's a pretty good token minority ratio. No need to go addin' a token black guy.

I like Stewart, but still.
