Summary: Great show, crummy DVD
Review: $15 just doesn't cut it for 2 episodes of this show and ZERO extra features. I'm not sure who they are marketing this set for, but I can think of no reason why anyone would buy this. It offers nothing that you can't see in repeats on Cartoon Network.

Summary: Worlds in Danger
Review: Get ready for more heroic adventures with the galaxy's greatest crime-fighting team in "Justice League: Paradise Lost". The DVD contains two 2-part episodes of the first season of Justice League:
Paradise Lost. Sorcerer Felix Faust has turned the Amazons of Themyscira to stone and forces Wonder Woman to recover a mystical artifact.
War World. When Superman is captured by the mad tyrant Mongul, can Green Lantern and Hawkgirl save their friend in time?
The episodes aren't the better of the first season but they offer some amusing moments, interesting villains and great character interactions. They feature the voice talents of Carl Lumbly, Robert Englund, John Rhys-Davies, Eric Roberts and Michael Rosenbaum. Though the series is often broadcasted in widescreen format, the episodes are presented in full screen format. The DVD has a fine picture quality and a well-balanced 2.0 Dolby Digital sound. Its supplemental features include episode introductions with Producer Bruce Timm, a hidden test footage and "Escape from War World" game. For fans of the popular animated series, "Paradise Lost" scores a "C".

Summary: Wonder Woman Takes Center Stage
Review: In this DVD release you will find two seperate two-part episodes of the Cartoon Network animated series Justice League. As a quick heads-up for those not in the know, Justice League is the updated version of the Superfriends of years gone by. DC Comics superheroes like Superman, Wonder Woman, Batman, Flash, Hawkgirl and others band together to help stop evil where ever it may be.

In the first episode "Paradise Lost" our own favorite Amazon, Wonder Woman, takes center stage. The dark sorcerer Felix Faust (voiced by Nightmare on Elm Street star Robert Englund) is in search of several mystic items to free his imprisoned mentor. One such mystic artifact is located on Wonder Woman's home of Themyscira. (Paradise Island) When Diana visits her homeland she discovers that all her Amazon sisters have been turned to stone and finds Felix Faust lying in wait. She discovers that the only way she can turn her people back to normal is by helping Faust gain the remaining artifacts scattered all across the globe. With the Justice League's help Diana finds the items and is shocked to discover exactly who Felix Faust's mentor really is. This has to be my absolute favorite episode of all the season one releases. Not only do we get to see more of Wonder Woman's background, but fans of the characters get to see something that rarely is ever shown: a knock-down drag-out fight between Superman and Wonder Woman. This episode alone is worth the price of purchase.

The second episode is the Superman centered "War World". Superman (voiced by actor George Newbern) is taken prisoner to a savage world where warriors are forced to battle in a gladiator-like spectical for the world's dictator Mongul (voiced by actor Eric Roberts). While there Superman battle's the hulking yet honorable warrior Draaga and makes a name for himself among the planet's people. While trapped there, fellow Justice Leaguers Green Lantern, Hawkgirl and Martian Manhunter try to save their captured comrade and stop Mongul from continuing his barbaric sport. One complaint fans of the series have had is that Superman tends to be the team's rag-doll, often taking the brunt of the attacks due to his strength and invulnerability. This is very much shown in this episode. That aside, this episode does highlight lots of character development. If your a fan of the comic characters, or simply a fan of good stories, I strongly suggest you purchase this fantastic DVD.

Summary: WHY WB, WHY???
Review: Ok, hands down Justice league is one of the best animated DC show ever put on TV. And with Lustice League Unlimited on the way, its going to be even better. Who wouldn't want to collect this shows on DVD. Now on the next matter, I've noticed how everybody else commented on the number of episodes on this DVD and other ones like it. Technically its only 2 epsisodes if you put the part 1's and part 2's together. I wouldn't mind paying $80 - $100 for each season if WB puts it out. The reason I gave this DVD only 2 stars is only because of the number of episodes in this DVD. Each individual episodes are 5 star worthy but if WB keeps on doing this, its not only gonna lose its fan base but also is going to lose its viewers eventually. Its about time to put out the seasonal box sets. DO THE RIGHT THING PEOPLE.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Yay More Justice League but... Out of Order!
Review: Ok, So I have bought these Justice League DVDs so far because well they are high quality have a few special features thrown in and have been in release date order so I can imagine them being a seasonal set. HOWEVER Now, for no real reason the WB has decided to ignore that and release to Episodes out of order! This Disc should contain 'Injustice for All' & 'Paradise Lost' However it contains 'War World' instead of 'Injustice for All' Messing up the order of the series. I really don't understand what the WB is doing, they won't release seasonal sets, they won't release the Wide-Screen Version of Justice League, they barely put features on the discs and they put their discs in some of the ugliest Kiddy Boxes I have ever seen! How about releasing the widescreen version in a season set, because adults have money for season sets and like widescreen and the kids can keep their out of order standard versions. I mean I know WB just wants to sell and make money but come on at least try to put out quality product.
