Ep. 253 - Justice League Unlimited - Question Authority


Listen Later

The hits just keep on coming as the Good Brothers wrap up their month with the Justice League Unlimited episode "Question Authority" which just happens to be the beginning of the end of the celebrated Cadmus story arc. The hosts take their time looking at the layered plot that both acknowledges the past and the present with threads pulled from Superman: The Animated Series whilst continuing the present story of intrigue and holding those with the most power accountable for their actions. While the plot carries most of the episode, Cal & Liam do discuss the few action sequences and how a faceless hero's descent into madness is portrayed. Music also plays an important part in several of the big scenes, as does the vocal performances with their differing styles of acting in this dialogue driven episode. All of this, heaps of accolades for Dwayne McDuffie's writing and Jeffrey Combs turn as The Question and much more await on this week's deep dive of this legendary episode on the DCAU Review!
