\n\u2022\u00a0\u00ab\u00a0Justice League Unlimited Bonus Episodes\u00a0\u00bb Bruce Timm selects three of his favorite episodes from the Justice League Unlimited animated series:
\n1.\u00a0Dark Heart – Alien invaders attempt to thwart the Justice League. The fate of the world rests on the shoulders of Ray Palmer, AKA The Atom.
\n2.\u00a0To Another Shore – Wonder Woman learns of a plot to steal the powers of the 3,000 year-old corpse of The Viking Prince. It is up to the Justice League to make things right.
\n3.\u00a0Task Force X – Four incarcerated villains are released from prison by Cadmus to undertake an impossible mission: steal a powerful mystic artifact from the JLU Watchtower under the noses of the League.
\n\u00ab\u00a0Having the opportunity to take the unique work of such a legendary comic talent as Darwyn Cooke and create a small screen faithful adaptation of that style is one of the cornerstones in what we hope to develop for core and new fans alike as part of the DC Universe initiative on the Warner Premiere slate\u00a0\u00bb, said Matt Bierman, Vice President Production, Warner Premiere.<\/p>\n

\u00ab\u00a0Darwyn Cooke’s New Frontier is justifiably considered a modern classic, and we at DC comics are excited to share this thrilling adaptation with the book’s legions of loyal fans. On Feb. 26, DC Universe Animated Movies will lead everyone across the New Frontier,\u00a0\u00bb said Gregory Novek, Senior Vice President of Creative Affairs, Dc Comics.<\/p>\n
