Just finished the episodes and man did I not expect to see Jason Todd and Damian Wayne any time soon, never mind early into Season 3. I'm thinking that's all we'll see of Damian for the season; there could be more encounters with Ra's Crew ("League of Assassins" maybe? Separate from the Shadows and whoever runs them. Deathstroke doesn't sound like a bad bet, Mrmichaelt). If so, Jason reappearing as nothing more than a lackey assassin with small hints of his true identity doesn't seem that far-fetched to me.

Bowhunter Security was gold; easily the most enjoyable filler-type episode I've ever watched. I actually laughed out loud on a part I can't recall but it was a nice juxtaposition to the first trio of (intense) episodes. All the Harpers together in present-day was nice to see, especially because I always wanted to see more of all the Harpers in each of the previous seasons. I liked the Wally moment they threw in between Dick and Will (Wall, lol) - RIP to everyone's beloved speedster.

Nightwing eventually coming to accept his role as leader of the Outsiders was obvious from the get-go but it was nice to see the return to that unavodable role. I know he's had a good deal of screentime in season 2, but I feel like we're already seeing a more fleshed out Nightwing in Outsiders; he's got those quips and liners from Private Security and beyond, but not at the expense of his serious demeanor as leader (warning Brion in Rescue Op was reminiscent to Season 2 and his conflict with Arsenal). Also, DickBabs! Cute relationship; expecting some reference to Babs' condition and the origin of Oracle somewhere down the line.

A surprise to no one in existence but Brion is so Superboy S1 it's not even funny. So obvious that the connection is repeatedly mentioned by the characters, including SB himself. "Brion. I want you to literally chill." L o L. Would S1 Superboy do something as smart as showing up to al Ghul's very dangerous doorstep to make the ancient badass of a man give him info? You decide.

Halo has the absolute coolest powerset, man. They're fleshing her out well, too. Young Justice continues to excel at juggling multiple characters and arcs in my eyes. It never feels like too much to me; the development between Megan and Malcolm fits under this category and I am definitely not opposed to seeing more.

It wasn't as long as I'd like, but the Team interacting and in-action was a blast. Can't wait to see more of them, especially in episodes devoted to them.

I know I've got more to say but that's all that's fresh in my memory that I want to get out there. Oh, yeah. Animation didn't bother me too much before but the improvement was 100% noticeable. Tet another aspect to be excited about moving forward.
