On the up side, the episode did at least give him a minute or two in the spotlight, so he could show everyone that he really is a competent Earthbender, not just a goofball.

Avengers: Cool seeing the GotG in action. I miss the Wendell Vaughn-era of Quasar, though.
Also, why is all Hulk doing this season is sitting in the kitchen eating turkeys?

I just want to say Tygra is a pimp...
After surviving a cave-in by making out.....
Cheetara: We got lucky....
Tygra: (Smirking like a d-bag) Yeah we did.
Thundercats - I kind of liking the parallel plot threads they are introducing. Wonder if next week's episode will be more kitten specific. And yes, once they resolved the whole Cheetara - Tygra - Lion-o triangle they had to find Lion-o a "friend".
Green Lantern - stuff happens on Oa, skies turn blue, rings found in every cereal box (still not as many as last week).
Young Justice: Invasion - Well we find out about BBs origin, who dumped who (and maybe why) and Miss Martian goes too far (and I think not the first time).
The Legend of Korra - Young girls have a strange idea about what's romantic. 
If you couldn't tell early on that Bolin was taking Sokka's job you need to watch the first series again, the characters are written so much alike. I'm wondering if the three time (guessing four time) winners are going to get their powers ripped by the big bad as their "reward". And yes, the kiss. Shippers are happy.

Cool to see that the writers of The Avengers are going after some of the largest and most famous storylines. Very pleasently surprised to see The Korvac Sage make its way onto the screen!
Go Team Venture!
The missing 16 hours included a trip to Rimbor, which, 1000 years hence, is the homeworld of Ultra Boy. Wonder if they ran into an ultra-energy space whale?
Nice developments on Beast Boy's backstory, and the Superboy/Miss Martian relationship. Right now it looks like Superboy broke it off in a case of chronic martyrdom, but there's a hint that there's more to it than that, and that Beast Boy still holds out hope for them to reconcile, given that he was trying to play matchmaker.

To bad I thought it the weakest episode of the series so far. Just from what they had to compromise to make it work from the original story. Oh and just for the record:|

Adam Warlock = Starhawk
Star Lord = Vance Astro
Quasar = Aleta
Groot = Charlie 27
Rocket Raccoon = Nikki

It's not totally resolved yet, mark my words Tygra will have to use the sword of Plun-Dar to save them all. Reason why this will happen: It puts him on equal footing with Lion-O and will finally resolve their whole relationship issues. My bet is that Bengali will be introduced and he'll basically be Tygra's "Good" side not corrupted by the Sword of Plun-Dar. This will also nicely lead to some relationship hiccups between Lion-O and Pumyra as Cheetara deals with what has happened to Tygra....

Young justice was interesting, I wonder why Superboy said "She gave me no choice" when he broke off their relationship.
Thundercats: Hm, so Pumyra may be Lion-O's new love interest?
Young Justice Invasion: I'm liking Beast Boy's origins better here (a blood transfusion from Ms. Martian), than his standard "bitten by a green monkey" origin from the comics.
Legend of Korra: More Pro-Bending action! And love shenannigans! Poor Bolin, he's the gang's butt-monkey like Sokka was.
Green Lantern: This episode was actually interesting. Maybe it's finally starting to pick up speed.
Ultimate Spider-Man: Hulk Smash!
Avengers: I'll be back after it airs...
