Green Lantern: First Flight
Green Lantern: First Flight is an animated and lively origin story about the transformation of test pilot Hal Jordan into a member of an intergalactic society watching over the universe. Flying an experimental jet one day, Jordan (voiced by Law and Order: Special Victims Unit’s Christopher Meloni) encounters a dying alien who is a Green Lantern protector of Earth’s sector of the cosmos. The alien’s ring, a repository of enormous power granted by a council of elders called the Guardians, zips onto Jordan’s finger, but neither the Guardians nor other Green Lanterns are ready to accept him as an unproven member. Complicating things for Jordan is the fact that the Green Lantern tasked with mentoring him, Sinestro (Victor Garber), is plotting the destruction of the Guardians with the acquisition of “yellow power,” the only force that makes the Lanterns’ green power useless.

Superman/Batman: Public Enemies
Based on the six-issue comic-book arc by Jeph Loeb and Ed McGuiness, Superman/Batman Public Enemies finds DC’s stalwart heroes on the wrong side of the law. It’s not too surprising, considering Lex Luthor has been elected President of the United States, and he sets up an elaborate scheme to frame his archenemy for murdering his henchman, Metallo. That puts a bounty on their heads that a horde of supervillains is determined to collect, and a good part of the movie is dedicated to all-out action against Gorilla Grodd, Captain Cold, and many, many others. And when it’s not supervillains, Superman and Batman have to face off against heroes that Luthor has recruited to his administration, including Captain Atom, Power Girl, Katana, and Starfire. The movie is very faithful to its source material, reusing many of the dialogue lines, though without the internal monologues, and some of the situations toward the end of the book are missing.
- Directors
- Sam Liu
- Starring
- Tim Daly, Kevin Conroy, Clancy Brown
One of our favorite things about these older DC animated movies is that they do an amazing job of taking classic comic book storylines and making them come to life in an animated movie. Superman/Batman Public enemies is based on the six-issue comic book story arc by the same name, created by Jeph Loeb and Ed McGuiness.

We all wish for the chance to go back in time and change the things, for The Flash, that coveted chance is within reach. He traverses time to right a violent, decades-past crime against his mother, but the ripples of his good intentions prove disastrous, as a fractured, alternate reality now exists in place of the familiar one. Stumbling through this twisted reality where even Superman is nowhere to be found, The Flash seeks the trusted wisdom of Batman, only to find a grittier, more violent Dark Knight in his place. Together with the help of Cyborg, they race to restore the continuity of Flash’s original timeline while this new world is ravaged by a fierce war between Wonder Woman’s Amazons and the Atlanteans, led by a battle-hardened Aquaman. With breathtaking action and an all-star voice cast featuring Kevin Conroy, C. Thomas Howell, and Dana Delany, it’s a bold, emotional vision that will forever change the landscape of the DC Universe!
