The second season of the animated series Justice League finds the titular superheroes -- Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, the Flash, the Green Lantern, Hawkgirl, and the Martian Manhunter -- continuing to combine their awesome powers to vanquish all manner of villainy, both earthbound and extraterrestrial. As in season one, several of the Justice League's adventures unfold in two- and three-episode story arcs, the better to give the viewer full value in terms of action and thrills -- and the better to explore the various personality quirks and intramural rivalries that are part and parcel of the League's makeup. This season, the League does battle against such familiar comic-book heavies as Darkseid, Brainiac, Lex Luthor (who in one incredible plot strand ends up as President of "New Earth"), the Joker,Harley Quinn, and Gorilla Grodd. Also seen during the season's 26 episodes are a few representatives of the "normal" side of the League members' existence, notably Superman's occasional girlfriend Lois Lane and Batman's faithful butler Alfred. Season two of Justice League wraps things up with a powerful three-part adventure, "Starcrossed," wherein the denizens of Hawkgirl's home planet lay siege upon the human world -- the better to destroy it.
