The ‘Royal We’ on Young Justice Outsiders

Published

on

We begin the episode with a PSA from an alternate-world Beast Boy, of all things, reminding us that this seasons main storyline thus far is the illegal trafficking of meta-humans. So what that in mind, off we go to the United Nations meta-humans summit, already in progress!

Not a single person, human or otherwise, is happy about the current state of affairs, mainly concerning the Justice League. Arguments about hamstringing metas and other Leaguers just trying to do their jobs are flying back and forth, with solid opinions offered from Atlantean and Themiscyrian representatives too.

And the announcement of resignations from several key Justice League members, in protest of their treatment from the U.N. and other world leaders, just doesn’t help anything. Matters are made even worse when the U.N. Secretary General, Lex Luthor himself, speaks his not-peace on the matter, and invites the Markovian ambassador to inform everyone that Markovia has a zero-tolerance policy on allowing in any vigilantes or so-called heroes, at all.

But that isn’t going to stop our Outsiders, not even slow them down! Superboy and Black Lightning are taking a super-cycle under the radar into Markovia to investigate the childrens hospital for clues, and Nightwing and Artemis are going undercover to the Markovian royalty coronation reception, to scope out potential suspects of meta trafficking.

The hotshot geneticist Dr. Ecks seems to be a good bet for a suspect, though the royal family physician Dr. Jace makes the list too. Prince Brion, the one not being crowned, has been speaking to Dr. Jace about trying to activate his dormant meta-genes too, while Prince Gregor seems to have been doing some nasty plotting of his own. Prince Brion and Dr. Ecks leave the party early, ostensibly to go and begin treatments to turn his meta-gene active, of course at the Markovian childrens hospital.

Artemis goes to the Markovian cemetery to retrieve gear left there, and discovers meta traffickers burying what they think are dead bodies, only to find one of them isn’t quite dead yet, and is in some serious need of rescuing.

Meanwhile back at the childrens hospital, Black Lightning and SuperBoy have managed to discover a secret hidden base in the morgue, full of dark experiments apparently being done to convert youngsters into meta-humans by force. An encounter with Count Vertigo and a plasmus creature he calls Otto leads to lots of fighting and a serious need to escape. But poor Jeff manages to hurt himself on the way out, and SuperBoy got himself captured!

Both Dr. Ecks and Dr. Jace have nasty secrets they’re hiding, some even involve Count Vertigo and the meta trafficking ring. But no-one expected Dr. Jace herself to be the one to put both SuperBoy and Prince Brion in the experimental cocoon chambers and flip the switch to start the black sludge filling them up!

Tune in next time to help our heroes hunt down meta-human traffickers, and save the Justice League from the United Nations’ wrath!

Published

on

 in Hall H at San Diego Comic-Con, Rick Riordan and Disney+ revealed that Daniel Diemer (“Under the Bridge”) will star as fan-favorite cyclops “Tyson” in the epic adventure series “Percy Jackson and the Olympians.” Diemer joins Walker Scobell (Percy Jackson), Leah Sava Jeffries (Annabeth Chase) and Aryan Simhadri (Grover Underwood) as a series regular. The Disney+ Original series from Disney Branded Television and 20th Television will start filming its second season next week in Vancouver.

Season two of “Percy Jackson and the Olympians” is based on the second installment of Disney Hyperion’s best-selling book series titled “The Sea of Monsters” by award-winning author Rick Riordan. In the new season, Percy Jackson returns to Camp Half-Blood one year later to find his world turned upside down. His friendship with Annabeth is changing, he learns he has a cyclops for a brother, Grover has gone missing, and camp is under siege from the forces of Kronos. Percy’s journey to set things right will take him off the map and into the deadly Sea of Monsters, where a secret fate awaits the son of Poseidon.

Diemer stars as Tyson – a young Cyclops who grew up all alone on the streets, and finds it difficult to survive in the human world.  Shy and awkward, with a heart almost as big as he is, Tyson soon discovers that Poseidon is his father, which means Percy Jackson is his half-brother… and that Tyson may have finally found a home. 

Diemer recently starred in the Hulu limited series “Under the Bridge” based off the critically acclaimed book of the same name and a tragic true story of a missing teen girl in Vancouver in 1997. He will next star in the indie “Thug” opposite Liam Neeson and Ron Perlman for director Hans Petter Moland. Daniel was recently seen as the lead in the indie “Supercell” opposite Alec Baldwin and Skeet Ulrich and the lead in the film “Little Brother” opposite Phil Ettinger and JK Simmons. Daniel can also be seen in the Netflix series “The Midnight Club” and recently starred as the male lead in the breakout hit Netflix feature “The Half Of It” from producer Anthony Bregman and director Alice Wu. He is a graduate of Victoria Academy of Dramatic Arts in Vancouver.

Created by Rick Riordan and Jonathan E. Steinberg, season two of “Percy Jackson and the Olympians” is executive produced by Steinberg and Dan Shotz alongside Rick Riordan, Rebecca Riordan, Craig Silverstein, The Gotham Group’s Ellen Goldsmith-Vein, Bert Salke, The Gotham Group’s Jeremy Bell and D.J.
