Young Justice: Outsiders - 10 Reasons To Be Excited

8. Emphasis On Lesser Known Characters

We love the Justice League. We may not always love specific live-action iterations, but the adoration for the Justice League will never waver. DC not only has claim to the greatest team in comics, but arguably the greatest team in all of fiction.

With that said, their stories have been told and told repeatedly. Young Justice shines a light on lesser known characters that casual fans may not be familiar with. Yeah, Wonder Woman is a can't miss, but seeing Lagoon Boy get some time to shine is a refreshing change of pace.

Showcasing marginal characters give way to new storylines separate from DC canon. With this, the show is free to tell its stories largely void of fan expectation. Not bound by existing continuity, Young Justice serves as an inventive twist on rich source material, so it'll be intriguing to see where creators take the characters and dangling narrative threads next.
