Thanks to Animation Magazine, we have our first look at members of the Star Sapphire Corps who will appear later in the first season on Green Lantern: The Animated Series. Surprisingly they are about as scantily clad as their comic book counterparts. Not sure which violet spectrum wielders will appear, but its appears for the time being at least that Carol Ferris will be absent from their ranks. I am looking forward to seeing the rainbow of corps as they assembe.

Crisis of Infinite Episodes - The Devil Fish
Now I suppose it is about time I addressed the Aquacave. I get it that back in the day many of the superheroes were sort of interchangeable and made from the same mold. Green Arrow was basically a Batman clone, etc. And Aquman was just the ocean guy. Of course all heroes need a headquarters, right? Batman had the Batcave, Superman had the Fortress of Solitude, and A-Man, got the Aquacave. The thing is, an underwater "cave" complete with a "state of the art" computer doesn't really make sense. For one thing, the name is stupid. Bats live in caves, hence Batcave. Maybe the Aquacave should be called "The Reef" or something more aquatic. Secondly, the setting is just an electric shock waiting to happen, but I digress.
Green Arrow Joins the Long List of Heroes Hoping for a Break
I suppose it shouldn't be too surprising that a Green Arrow show is in the works for the CW. The Green Arrow character was one of the more popular additions to Smallville, and throughout the finale seasons of that show, rumors of a Green Arrow spin-off persisted. While this incarnation, titled Arrow, is not in fact a spin-off, its will likely be targeted toward Smallville fans.

Crisis of Infinite Episodes - The Sinister Sea Scamp
Uh oh, Tusky got lost. Then he got attacked by a serpent made of grass thanks to the Sea Scamp AKA Megamind. Aquaman turned the monster into a "tossed salad." Next, a coral monster struck, but he turned out to not be rock proof. On a roll, the Seas Scamp next created a phosphorous monster. Luckily Aquaman just happened to have a chunk of phosphorous with him. This monster was once again taken out by A-Man's minions. Suffering from the same spatial reasoning limitations as Kahn, Aquaman thought he could hide in the underwater canyon maze. But Scampy went in for the kill leading to his humiliating defeat. This episode was a dud!
