Justice League Unlimited: Hunter’s Moon

June 27, 2005, 10:01 pm

A somewhat pedestrian outing, really: good, but definitely not in the same category as previous episodes. This acts as a sequel of sorts to last season’s Thanagarian war, with some revenge-minded Thanagarians coming after Shayera (”Don’t call me Hawkgirl”) for betraying her people.
