Justice League Unlimited is an animated series set some time after the end of Justice League. It focuses on a revamped League of about 60 superheroes. It has 3 seasons of 13 episodes each. The first two seasons have been repackaged for DVD as Season One, and the last TV season, the third, was renamed Season Two.
In January 2009, IGN dubbed Justice League Unlimited the 20th best animated television series.[1]
