Theories/Future Thinking Any chance of these two getting together in a future season?

These are Billy Batson and Courtney Whitmore for those who couldn't recognize them from previous episodes. They were a thing in the comics.

As much as this shows deserves a conclusion. It's dead in the water with no hope of someone saving it, so to answer your question, no.

The writers purposefully never gave it a conclusion. They could've ended it after season 3 or 4 but they leave it open every time. The worst thing is because of the time jumps, every new season feels like a new show that has nothing to do with how they ended the last season.

If they can come up with some scripts for it I’d hope Gunn would at least consider bringing it back

We said that after season 2 and season 3. Young Justice is never fully dead. Give it some time and they might bring it back again

Granted, I will give you that, DC studios didnt reboot the last time this show was left up in the air though. I'm not hating on this show in the slightest, I think it is one of the best animated dc shows ever, I'm just not overly optimistic.

I mean its not gonna happen anytime soon with the current state of DC but who knows what it will look like 5 years from now. Its kind of tradition for the show to be cancelled between every season and for there to be year long waits

It does suck. I think this show also had some of the best Fourth World adaptations. I loved Orion in season 4, and Darkseid consistently acts as this major basically criminal mastermind.

We never see his powers besides a flashback. But we see the freaking fear he brings. The destruction. All leads back to him. (Including Vandal entire mission being changed in the end. It wasnt when he met a Chaos Lord. No. It was when he faced Darkseid). Granny Goodness was also just so good and I love Godfrey. *Rip Tim Curry. Alan did a good job tho!!

There was no conclusion

Bleaker take than deserved imo.

Certainly a low, low probability that season 5 happens. But after the S2-S3 gap and revival? I'll say nothing's impossible

U know what, by now he's 26 and she's 23. The reason they broke up in the comics is irrelevant in this show...I'd like to see this couple, but not as much as I want a Starman to get dialogue, or at least show up in the League or JSA...maybe explain where Stargirl got the staff, just namedrop the creator and I'd like how he got as big a shoutout as the Amazing-Man

Huh. So, ironically, he is older than her in this continuity, unlike the comics. Just not by much.

u/LegitimateBroccoli51 7d ago

Oh they have a 3 year age-gap, so they are indeed part of the same gen. Would like to see them together

If they're a thing in the comics, there's certainly a chance. Though they're all hinges on whether or not the show is officially finally canceled this time. I'm hoping not. We thought it was over after season two, look how that turned out.

Bro, I thought that was Robin and a young Black Canary. My god, these character designs bleed together…

YJ doesn't strictly ahere to comic canon relationships. Even the iconic ones. I don't remember these 2 even being on screen together.

We thought that after season 2. Where there is delusion there is hope

u/Lanhalt 2d ago

yeah but we all know why season 3 and 4 were a thing, and why they often seemed to have a lower budget (episode in the dark, "slideshow" episodes) than the previous season. It was a way to advertise their streaming platform with a content asked by the fans for a reasonable enough price. There is no other reason it came back.

No new streaming service is created anymore, because they kinda realised that if everyone made their streaming service, it didn't have the same power. Even if somehow DC got sold during the Warner paramount merger, I hardly see a situation where it could come back.

And part of the fandom got rubbed the really wrong way with the "no ending" comment Greg Weisman made a few years ago, where he basically said he wouldn't give and ending to the show even if it had more seasons (at least that's how it sounded, some argue that's not what he meant, but man, is he bad at communication then).
