Weisman Leaves <i>Young Justice</i> <br />Threads Dangling, Hopes For Return  

young justice-impulse

Although the fate of Cartoon Network’s Young Justice is pretty clear, producer Greg Weisman doesn’t appear to be closing the door to the possibility of more episodes, even after the show’s second, and presumably last, season comes to a close this spring.

Talking to The World’s Finest fan site about the final issue of his Young Justice comic series, which arrives Wednesday, Weisman said, “I’m not writing an epitaph here. But the nature of the business is that you never know if you’re going to be picked up for more episodes or issues. So whether it’s Captain Atom, Gargoyles, W.I.T.C.H., The Spectacular Spider-Man or Young Justice, I always try to end each season or run at a good place to stop, with what I like to call open-ended closure. So with the Young Justice book and show, Brandon [Vietti] and I tied up enough threads that the audience/reader can feel satisfied, but we’ve left some questions unanswered, some threads dangling intentionally, so that we have the chance to come back. And I would love to come back to this world, these characters. Believe me.”

That may come as some comfort to fans, who learned late last month that Young Justice and Green Lantern: The Animated Series won’t be returning in the fall to DC Nation. Instead the Cartoon Network programming block will debut Teen Titans Go! in April and Beware the Batman in the summer.

DC Nation airs Saturdays at 10 a.m. ET/PT on Cartoon Network.

    Young Justice is the only show that I love to really watch! If it doesn’t have a third season I’ll DIE with sadness! :’( As for Teen Titans Go! I also think it’s a mock of the 2003 show. And it was quite good.

    Gargh! I just finished watching the final episode, and I went looking for news of the 3rd season, and I find out that YJ have been cancelled WHAT?! Young Justice got me into the DC universe, plus the finale was emotional and just plain left threads hanging with Savage and Darkseid. How can they cancle it!? It was the so awesome!

    What the fuck another fucking Batman series & it doesn’t even look that good. It’s more like a joke. Speaking of jokes what the hell is this teen titans go shit? Really they don’t finish the previous series of teen titans but there going to make a dumbed down idiotic version of it. And are they really canceling young justice. I mean if they didn’t and the last part with Darkside on apocalypse then it might make not want to punch the director that canceled the show. …. Na I would still kick his ass if I saw him. Not just because of that. But because he does this to all of his other animations to. It like that stupid joke your friend tells you. Friend: you know how to keep a person in suspense. You: how. Friend: all tell you later. The you question your friendship. :-)

    With out young justice, what else can I watch from cartoon network? It was the only animation with a story line…the rest are for toddlers. PUNKS!!

    I sure as hell wont be watching it either, This show was fantastic, and if you want to throw it all away just because of some mockery of the teen titans 03 series and ruin batman go right ahead But I can assure you I won’t watch or support any DC animated films or series. Warner Bros need to get their shit straight and stop catering to all these newer ideas to try and impress upcoming audiences when they know their fan base for comics is meant for a teenage and older audience that knows what comics really are. I might even go as far as not watching the actual justice league movie assuming they can even get their shit together for that.

    Yea Good luck with that. cause I won’t be watching cartoon network again. If they have no interest in what the fans want then, whatever. They really think their programming is that good? we will see. i mean those DUMB shows like annoying orange, or incredible something, is what they have to offer then carry on. They have totally forgotten that we the fans pay their bills. They jerked us around TWICE during the YOUNG JUSTICE RUN with no explanation, and now cancel it. Forget them, DC should have switched networks a long time ago.

  • ToBs

    why end the best show ever

  • Mara

    I think there may be a chance of Young Justice comming back.After all it’s a small chance but theres always hope.If Cartoonnetwork take 5 minutes to look at their fan base maybe they will see that people want YJ to continue and they shouldn not make mistakes again.

    Justice League/Justice League: Unlimited are in the DCAU. They’re not in the same Earth as Young Justice, which is in Earth-16.
