Justice League Unlimited is an animated television series produced by and aired on Cartoon Network. Featuring a wide array of superheroes from the DC Comics universe, it is a direct sequel to the earlier Justice League series. It debuted on july 31, 2004.
The series is a continuation of its predecessor, taking place soon after the previous series ended. It is sometimes considered to be the same series as the original; season 1 of Justice League Unlimited is referred to as season 3 of Justice League.
It teams the characters from the original series (although Hawkgirl is initially missing due to events in the previous series finale) with newly-appearing characters such as Booster Gold, Supergirl, Zatanna, The Question, Green Arrow, Captain Atom, Elongated Man, Hawk and Dove, Black Canary, and others.
Justice League Unlimited also refers to a team of superheroes in the future that appeared in the Batman Beyond two-part episode "The Call" (which, incidentally, aired well before work began on the Justice League series). This team consisted of Superman, Barda, Green Lantern, Warhawk, Aquagirl, and Micron. A connection with this team and the present-day team featured in Justice League Unlimited was established in the Justice League Unlimited two-part episode "The Once and Future Thing".
