[James Harvey]

New media has been provided by Cartoon Network from the upcoming all-new Young Justice episode “The Fix.” Check out The World's Finest for all the details! See? No need for the paranoia.

​

Mod Note: Repost from previous thread installment.

 

[PretenderNX01]

Oh, looks like the whole team gets to meet Green Beetle. And apparently for some time to do an interview.

 

[Hero Supreme]

Oh, looks like the whole team gets to meet Green Beetle. And apparently for some time to do an interview.

That also potentially rules out the Miss Martian = Green Beetle theory.

 

[Lighthammer]

Oh, looks like the whole team gets to meet Green Beetle. And apparently for some time to do an interview.

You saying that made me realize all the girls (save Miss M) are missing.

Wonder if they are on another mission.

 

[AurPen]

I wouldn't be too surprised if the girls and Beast Boy were in fact doing something else. I wonder if that image is immediately after the events of True Colors, of if they simply are still unsure of Green and only have the members that he's seen plus MM and Lagaan standing around until they absolutely trust him.

 

[Deshaded]

Batgirl and Wonder Girl have been missing since 'Before the Dawn.' With 'Fix' and 'The Runaways' probably still missing, who knows when we'll next see them.

 

[graysongirl]

whatever happens this week, I'm just glad we get to see Arty again and i wonder if Cheshire or Sportsmaster would be able to tell who she is based off of her mannerisms or something?

 

[Yojimbo]

Part of me wants Cheshire to realize it, the other wants me to see Sportsmaster and Black Manta throw down.

 

[the greenman]

I wonder if Psymon will be instrumental in brainwashing the runaways. Maybe they put Kaldur again as leader.

 

[Lighthammer]

Interesting theory

 

[Northern Sun]

Greg posted his premier for "The Fix". Don't think I've ever seen him use that many exclamation points from him in such a short post. I wonder what he means by "more lies"; the two things that spring to mind are lies to maintain the undercover op or the Reach being their "We're friendly!" selves.

Another good thing about Saturday, Chris Jones will take part on a live chat tomorrow at 5 PM CST.

Search Ask Greg : Gargoyles : Station Eight

I agree, those two choices seem the most immediate possibilities. Perhaps, the JL tries to present their analysis of the alien additive but the Ambassador pulls another fast one.

Search Ask Greg : Gargoyles : Station Eight

With "more lies", it could be that the episode ends with Kaldur seemingly back to normal and apparently on good terms with Miss Martian and the others... but once the Team have departed and left him to his undercover operation, we find out that M'gann didn't quite succeed and Kaldur now believes himself to be a true villain.

Things are meant to get worse for the Team... What if Kaldur turns Artemis over to the Light in the episode's closing moments?

 

[Cad2686]

So what are the odds that the "emotional confrotation" is the one between Conner and Nightwing that we've seen hinted at in the trailer? Assuming La'gaan manages to escape the fight with Tigress and Deathstroke (he's already been a prisoner once so he deserves a break), then he'll be able to tell everyone what happened to M'gann, and I can't see that sitting well with Conner -- especially if M'gann revealed the deception to him at the end of "Cornered".

 

[Deshaded]

I am of the impression Psimon wouldn't be mindreading Tigress, but...(warning, huge pic, huge spoiler)

Was there a specific Tumblr account that posted this image? It appears to be from CN's database cache, still annoyed I can't figure out how to access it, and there could be more to oogle in the few hours before the premiere.

Well, looks like someone's cover was blown. I really hope nothing permanent happens to Artemis. They've already "killed" her twice, I'd be pretty ticked if something happened for a third time.

 

[Cleg25]

I am of the impression Psimon wouldn't be mindreading Tigress, but...(warning, huge pic, huge spoiler)

Interesting. If that's really Psimon, what are the chances that he turns both Kaldur and Artemis into real villains?

Mad World -- Appears to be Russian. I didn't think Invasion was airing in foreign countries yet, though?
