The final scene mirroring the very first scene from the very first episode of Batman the Animated Series. Hearing Kevin Conroy say "There will always need to be a Batman".

4- Return of another iconic villain of the DCAU, BRAINIAC! He had been gone for so long, having him back, connecting his return to old superman episodes, that was awesome! I told the Flash's voice actor that THIS was my all time favorite scene with him! While the others were being told of their faults and failures, NOTHING phases Flash! It got to Superman, but not the Flash AT ALL, and I love it! "I got a seat at the big conference table, IM GONNA PAINT MY LOGO ON IT!" Considering that corrupt future happened because of the Flash's death, its perfect that he stood up and said NO, refusing to let that happen by going as fast as he's ever gone! This move even became his super attack in the Injustice game!

The DCAU meant a lot to me growing up. The whole universe includes most of my favorite shows (probably not The Zeta Project even though I do still really enjoy that show). I miss this universe a lot and would love if we could get some movies or series set in the universe again. R.I.P. Kevin Conroy!

I can't believe one of my favorites, especially top 5 didn't make this list! Wake the Dead and its precursor The Terror Beyond. Hawkgirls emotional arc and duty are why I love her character and voice actress so much. And the terro Beyond is nod to one of my favorite Marvel team-ups The Defenders!

Good episode choices for arguably the greatest showing of the Justice League on screen. Some of my personal favorite episodes of the series are "Secret Society", "Hereafter", "Clash", "Twilight", "Alive", "Destroyer", "Doomsday Sanction", "Epilogue", "Panic In The Sky", "A Better World", "For The Man Who Has Everything", Divided We Fall", "Starcrossed", and " The Savage Time". Justice League and Justice League Unlimited were great DC superhero shows and among the best tha DC has ever made.

Should have had "flash and substance" as an honourable mention. Another one of those episodes showing that beyond simply being strong and clever, heros need to have sympathy to their villains. While Flash is having issues with his rogue gallery, he finds The Trickster (voiced by Mark Hamill, who also played him in the 90s live-action Flash show) in a bar, and simply talks to him ("you're off your meds again, aren't you, James?"). Also, while Flash acts so fool-hearty, Orion tries to figure out why people love him as a hero so much if he is such a fool. Also, while it wasn't overall a very eventful episode, "the return" where The Android from Dr. Ivo returns to earth, beats the crap of most of the justice league, all to have an existential discussion about the purpose of the android

6- The fact Amanda Waller caused Batman Beyond's existence is mind-blowing, but not out of character considering her past crazy plans like the Suicide Squad. We even got a cameo of the Phantasm! This proved that not only did she survive the events of the classic Batman film "Mask of the Phantasm" but Waller wanted her to kill Terry McGinnis parents to recreate Batman entirely. They wanted to RECREATE CRIME ALLEY! But Phantasm AKA Andrea's love for Bruce made her refuse to pull it off. She claimed Bruce would never accept this, and neither would she.

I really enjoyed The Savage Time, Hunter's Moon,The Camdus arc with Question,I am Legion, In Blackest Night (I'm a huge green lantern fan),Task Force X,Hawk and Dove, Ancient History, Shadow of the Hawk,and Far from Home with the Legion of Superheroes to just name a few. I grew up watching JL and JLU so they all have a special place in my heart.

14- Shining Knight was the best part of that episode. He was a freaking loyal knight of King Arthur, and a badass! A true warrior who refused to yield! It was awesome and showed what true heroes were like!

I love that Patriot Act made it to the list. The Seven Soldiers of Victory deserve their own movie

Should've added the episode Chaos at the Earth's core to this list. I do like seeing how super heroes survive, adapt, and battle the forces of evil the Stone Age way. Just like Cyborg did in the Teen Titans episode Cyborg the Barbarian.

I remember the story more then hereafter. Hereafter loses something after you watch Superman: Doomsday from the same time period. Otherwise a pretty solid list.

The backstory behind Terry was my personal favorite. A close second was when they worked with the future justice league because Batman Beyond was one of my favorite WB cartoons of all time outside Batman the Animated series and JL/JLU. I really think we deserve a Batman Beyond live action movie or bring back the cartoon at least, it’s super underrated.

I always liked the one where the mind possessing alien attempted to destroy the Sun, and it was up to Flash to save the planet at every turn.

2- Darkseid as the final villain. That's just perfect. Also shows why Superman in the DCAU always looked like he got his butt kicked so easily. It was never that he was weak, HE WAS ALWAYS HOLDING BACK, and he got a chance to show it off perfectly. This is also the LAST TIME we ever see DCAU Lex Luthor TO THIS DAY! Luthor breached the SOURCE WALL of all things thanks to Metron, and gained the Anti-Life Equation, what Darkseid always dreamed of. In a flash of light, both Darkseid and Luthor disappeared. I keep hoping one day he returns, but if not, this would still be considered a great way to close the book on Luthor's story.

A masterpiece of a series.

Didnt get to see the whole series until I was already an adult. What an amazing series. Nothing in tv or even on the big screen today can match the heights of this legendary superhero series.

while there are various new shows that are good, the early 2000's had so many classics that still hold up to this day.

I’m still sad this never gotten another season, or sequel series, because I would love to see a Justice League and Teen Titans team up. Also the part where Superman gives Darkseid a super punch is epic!

For me, 'Epilogue' is a top3 episode, it was so emotional watching the final moments of Ace with Batman! 'The Return' is another top episode, the existential crisis of Ivo's android and Luthor saving the universe was a fantastic storytelling. And Kevin Conroy's 'Am I Blue' was so wholesome!!

I do agree that Wild Card, Epilogue, Destroyer, Injustice for All, the once and future thing are great episodes. Most of the episode on this list are some of my favorites. I would put Destroyer as number 1. It also shows Batman in the last scene, and we see his bat symbol up close. It was the not ending of Justice League, but the end of the whole DCAU. Batman the animated series was the first to begin DCAU, he is the only character who appeared in every DCAU show and I am surprised Twilight and Alive are not on the list. Twilight shows Superman is still scarred for Darksied, for brainwashing him in final of Superman the animated series, Darkseid meets other members of the Justice League, Orion fights against Darksied, Superman willing to Kill Darksied and Batman using the motherbox to save Superman and Orion. Alive focuses on the villains. We get to see the Legion of doom fight each other for control of leadership, Lex defeating Gorilla Grodd, and Lex playing God trying to bring back Brainiac, but his plan backfired and ended up resurrecting Darkseid instead, Darksied’s look is way more badass, and Darksied returns to Apokolips with a bang was great.
