The team is visibly shaken after their training mission in the last episode. How they cope with the experience will speak volumes about their individual characters. Hopefully, the state of depression and sadness we saw on their faces will not linger for too long. On an unrelated note, we have not seen much of the Sphere that...
Slick’s Nit-Picks: Young Justice, Episode 116 — “Failsafe”
The team is more than used to danger by now. They are able to handle situations that normal individuals cannot. Even when fear overcomes them, we have seen these individuals stand strong. The Young Justice team is more than just Batman’s covert ops squad; they are the future of the Justice League. If anything ever happened...
Slick’s Nit-Picks: ThunderCats, Episode 110 — “Sight Beyond Sight”
Remember that episode of your favorite show that just had nothing to do with the main plot? You know how restaurants put bread crumbs in ground meat to get more product?

Regardless, beating the Injustice League, which they did mostly on their own, is a huge accomplishment and they have reason to feel like...
Slick’s Nit-Picks: Young Justice, Episode 114 — “Revelation”
It is difficult to cheer for our heroes from this perspective. Despite their almost unblemished win record, all of their wins seem hollow to the observer. There remains the ever looming threat of The Light, which none of the team even know about. This group of masterminds is planning something on a global scale and every victory that...
