Netflix instant review - Animated edition
Hey for those of you out there looking for something to watch on Netflix instant streaming, they've just added a ton of animated goodies for you, here's a few series that I highly recommend:

Justice League
Justice League Unlimited
This follow up to Paul Dini's Batman and Superman Animated is a comic lovers dream come to life. Written by the late Dwayne McDuffie, this series treats the material seriously and features almost every character in the DC universe worth showcasing. I should also mention that it's one of the few animated shows that tied up all it's loose ends by the final episode which by the way is one of my favorite TV show episodes of all time.

Batman Beyond
Dini and Timm followed up their legendary Batman TAS by jumping 30 years or so. Bruce Wayne has retired the cowl and takes on a protege willing to carry on his legacy, Terry McGinnis. I think this show didn't catch on as well due in part to fans unwillingness to accept anyone other than Bruce Wayne as Batman, but if you give it a chance (it's a short 3 seasons) It's a fun show that most comic fans should enjoy.

Batman: Brave and the Bold
This Batman show while not in the same continuity vein as the previous Two aforementioned series, is still a delightfully fun team up show that hardens back to simpler times. I feel that this series was never given a far chance by fans due to it's Batman 1966 inspired look but I think anyone who enjoys animated super hero adventures will be right at home watching this program. The show follows a "guest of the week" format featuring Batman and a variety of surprisingly obscure characters that you normally wouldn't think you'd see on TV ( B'wana Beast, Adam Strange!?!) I confess that I haven't seen the entire series, but now thanks to Netflix instant.
The Venture Bros.
Hands down the greatest television show ever made, animated or otherwise and of you beg to differ, you'll have to face the wrath of Brock Samson!
There are a few other additions to the Netflix instant library worth mentioning Samurai Jack and The Power Puff Girls which are great if you have a little one who wasn't around to enjoy them when they first aired.

11 minute unaired Plastic-Man pilot.
Here's an cool animated clip by artist Andy Suriano as a pitch for a new cartoon series for where else....The Cartoon Network. Tom Kenny, best known as the narrator of The PowerPuff Girls and Sponge Bob lent his voice to the title character PasticMan.
I'm enjoyed the light hearted direction they went with that owes a lot to Kyle Baker's nifty PlasticMan limited DC series from a few years ago with a hint Jack Cole's humor from the original comic.
It's a shame that this didn't get picked up since it seemed like a fun idea for a show.
Here's the Clip, enjoy:
