Doesn the embargo hinder cartoons like Justice League Unlimited?
It’s a tough standpoint to argue. Justice League Unlimited – as with its comic source – isn’t about Gotham City and had a wealth of characters and stories of it’s own. The creative team still had Batman and a host of their own “Bat”-established characters (or ones close to the Batman universes such as The Huntress and Static Shock) to draw on. Characters exclusive to previous DCAU shows such as Phantasm, the Joker gang from Return Of The Joker, Warhawk, Terry McGinnis, and future Bruce Wayne all made a reappearance. They’d also used many Gotham characters in the Justice League series, so when it revamped to Justice League Unlimited, it didn’t feel the show was too deprived of Batman to start with. The finale for the last full season, Epilogue, was devoted to Batman, so it’s hardly fair to say the Batman embargo caused much trouble for the production. And if you look carefully as Black Canary enters Bludhaven in JLU’s Grudge Match, you can almost makes a certain Gotham character lurking
