This episode of Justice League Unlimited is for all the hardcore Legion fans who always wanted to see them get animated, Bruce Timm style. Supergirl is the main character from the League, and the story makes for a nice conclusion to her arc since it began in Superman: The Animated Series. The white costume is gone, replaced by the classic outfit, which Kara is wearing to honor Superman. She's feeling a bit out of touch with 21st century Earth, so when the Legion comes calling, it's at a very appropriate time. And this neatly coincides with Supergirl joining the Legion in the DC comic series, as I reported a few months ago.
You'll want to freeze frame this episode several times just to identify the miscelleanous Legionnaires. I was particularly pleased to see Wildfire--I always liked this character, his predicament of being a bodiless form of energy was interesting. Brainiac-5 is well portrayed--when Kara first sees him, she assumes he's evil. That attitude changes by the show's end.
Is it just me, or does every Timm-designed female character look damn sexy? All the girls cute, especially Phantom Girl, but my favorite in this episode is the Emerald Empress. She hypnotizes the entire Legion and sends them against Supergirl, Green Arrow, and Brainiac. Kara really takes a pounding, but she proves worthy to be Superman's cousin. For the Legion fans, this one is a labor of love and it goes by quickly. Let's hope there is more Legion-animated coming our way in the future. Nuff said.
Update: Michael from The Legion Blog says that the new Legion series won't be Timm-inspired, see his comment.

Yes, there will be more Legion in your animated diet, but it won't be this Legion. The new series (to start in the fall or next spring) will star Superboy with the Legion, and the animation style is not in the Timm-DCU.
The latest on the series - some cast, crew, and concept drawings - can be found on my Legion blog at http://adventure247.blogspot.com (there's a link on the side to the Animated LSH news post). I also have the entire episode screencapped for those of you who want to read about it before it airs (which, after being yanked tonight, is allegedly scheduled for mid-April).
I would wait a long time until this episode appear in Cartoon Network Asia..:(
anyway, during earlier Superman Animated episodes, there are 3 Legion sent to DC past, to prevent Clark Kent from being killed. The Legion are: Cosmic Boy, Saturn Girl, and Chameleon Boy (with costume reference to the one with big L logo on the belt). Do these characters appear? In what costume?
