Not the biggest fan of Geoff Johns as a comics writer, but this was a really good pilot episode and strong series concept.
We got a whole bunch of Golden Age heroes and villains looking p.much like they should (Brainwave wasn't a knock-off Sivana though), including Luke Wilson as a Stripesy who was both referred to as Stripesy and had a shirt with thick red and white stripes on it.
Then we got Courtney's origin story, and the seeds of what will be Infinity Inc. but at High School (we meet versions of Infinity Inc's Hourman, Dr. Midnite, Wildcat and Brainwave Jr.).
There's hints of things they can do down the line (curious how much of Robinson's Starman will be mined for ideas, seems to be a hint of The Shade in there), but I hope they stay focused on the kids and Pat Dugan for this initial season.
