> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by Leaper \* > **Trivia: the five voices of the Royal Flush Gang are apparently (from what I’ve read on TV Tome) the five voices of the Teen Titans. Who does who? Match the Titans character as closely as you can to the equivalent on the RFG (e.g. shapeshifter to shapeshifter, strong man to strong man)! I’d be very surprised if this wasn’t an “easter egg” to fans of DC-based cartoons.** I _thought_ I recognized the voice of Ten! I didn’t even occur to me to listen more closely to the voices of the rest of the Gang, though. ---

Sinestro _broke through_ some of Kyle’s constructs, but Kyle also trashed some of Sinestro’s. They’re pretty consistant in the cartoon series’ (Kyle was even at Superman’s funeral, and mentioned in the Destro epsiode). As for Superman. Eh. It’s always been unclear as to how much punisment the big guy can take in the cartoon. Personally, I just think he’s prone to overreacting to minor hits. 🙂 ---

I agree that this was a great episode, but one question kept nagging at me. Namely, where were Diana and J’onn? J’onn in particular could have been quite useful in locating and dismantling bombs. ---

J’onn in particular could have been quite useful in locating and dismantling bombs. \*\* Rule of Super Comic books #23 Any hero who’s powers or abilities would be overwhelmingly devastating to the villains faced will conveniently be absent during a battle with such an adversary. Worst example: X-men massacre of the Morlocks. The 1/2 Marauders almost all wore metal armor, yet Magneto was told to stay home and watch the kids. ---

This is definitely not an absolute rule: some episodes have all 7, occasionally there’s 6, and one episode had only 3. But 5 is for some reason the most common number. ---

I think 5 is the most manageable number. If there are to many, each individual gets neglected and you get the superfriends problem ie everyone is interchangeable. Two few and the team aspect gets lost a bit (though its good to foucus on just a few Members from time to time) Oh and DAMN they did a good job on HawkGirls face. I was starting to wonder if that was a mask ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by MonkeyMule \* > \*\*Oh and DAMN they did a good job on HawkGirls face. I was starting to wonder if that was a mask \*\* In the episode with the alternate universe I think Justice Lord Hawkgirl was wearing a slightly different mask. I’m pretty sure her wings were different. But, yeah. She’s hot. **Leaper** , I think you all right. Especially since in the episode with Solomon Grundy and the evil god she introduced herself by her married name, Shiera [sic] Hol. This is getting good.
