> [@Big Bad Voodoo Lou](#): > > I assume he was just scared shitless confronting Superman the way he did (especially after Superman crashed through the wall and took him by surprise), and breathed a sigh of relief after Supes left without tossing him around a bit–or worse. I thought that was a great touch. He was really, genuinely _terrified_ of Superman. He’s a normal human, who just stood up to a guy who could pop his head clean off with a flick of his fingers, and he was entirely uncertain that Superman wouldn’t do just that. It was a great way of showing that the people in Cadmus really are frightened of the Justice League, and not simply in it for their own personal power games. ---

> [@Askia](#): > > That Jimmy Olsen kidnapping thing made me laugh out loud. > > Superman. Dude! That’s your pal. He’s just been kidnapped, bound and gagged and his signal watch was used to lure you to that location by a woman you just kicked out of the JLU. Jimmy Olsen is mumbling through his gag and your big REACTION is to say, “A minute, Jimmy,” and talk to Huntress??? Without freeing your boy?? Jimmy or Huntress? No doubt which choice I would make. Jimmy can fend for himself. Besides, he just wanted to find out from where she gets her outfits, so that later he could get one for Lois for a little roleplay. My pals would understand if I chose Huntress over them. Don’t know about Ms. D\_Odds though, although I’d have to guess she wouldn’t understand. ---

If Supes didn’t save him all the time, he might just learn how to handle something for himself every once in a while. ---

Semi-obligitory [superdickery](http://www.superdickery.com/dick/10.html) link. As for the Captain, if Superman doesn’t convince him the Huntress will just pop his suit with one of her arrows. And while I’m linking [here](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=318338&highlight=question+authority) is an old thread about the Easter eggs in the Cadmus files. ---

One of the Cadmus files is called Flashpoint 23. The next episode is called Flashpoint and it is episode 23 of JLU. ---

**D\_Odds.** If there was a chance that Superman was going to push up on Huntress, he really should have gotten Jimmy out of there: “Lock the door to the roof behind you, Jimmy. What a pal. Oh: mum’s the word to Lois. Huntress? Now that we’re alone, I have the perfect shaft to slip into your drawstring.” **Wolfian.** I think this is the first time in five years I’m aware of someone linked to a thread I’ve started. What a ridiculously easy way to boost my ego. ---
