I picked up my copy of Justice League Doom early this morning before work and couldn't wait until I got home to watch it.
Based on the JLA Tower of Babel story line from 2000, this was another animated movie from the DCU. The animation was beautiful, seemingly having an anime influence (IMO) and yet at the same time, different than the designs from the other DCU animated movies. The one thing I really like about these movies is that there is a bit of familiarity in the animation but at the same time each one has it's own style and often times, reflecting the art work of the original artists.
I really enjoyed the story, they of course had to modify it to fit in the time frame allotted but still a great adaptation.
A great documentary on the late Dwayne McDuffy as well as a memorandum to him at the end of the film was also a nice add to the combo set. The only thing I was a little disappointed about was that the set did not include a DCU short. Maybe I got spoiled but it was one of the things I looked forward to in these releases (other than the feature itself). Hopefully the next release has one in it...maybe an Aquaman story...
