Young Justice S01-E03 - Welcome to Happy Harbor

Analysis from a RPG Perspective: I found this episode a little weak, though in retrospective, once you learn about M'gann's obsession with "Hello, Megan" she isn't nearly as annoying. And it also kicks off the long-term Red Tornado subplot. I thought that the way the boys benched her after a mistake that any of them would have made was heavy handed, though it did lead to a satisfying payoff where Miss Martian's plan worked like a charm, not just impressing her teammates but tricking the master villain with shapeshifting, telekinesis and a little help from Kid Flash for the special effects.


And just from a tactical standpoint, I like how Marvel Heroic handles a powerful Controller using their powers defensively, even to the point that they kept throwing Reaction-based stress on the heroes. (I guess the Team was rolling lots of 1's for the first half, so Mister Twister could throw them around the way he did.)
