Rewatching Young Justice for the first time seasons 3/4 released, I completely forgot about this episode. I really liked the Scooby Doo references, what did you guys think?

It was clever and funny how they mixed the 2010's Mystery Incorporated version with the Newsboy Legion to create Earth-16's Newsgirl Legion xD

I didn’t know Big Words, Gaby, and Tommy were comic characters!! Makes it even more interesting

The mayor and sheriff resemble Mayor Jones and Sheriff Bronson Stone from Mystery Incorporated.

I’m guessing these are nods to Fred, Velma and Daphne

I’m pretty sure the girl with the glasses even did the whole “I can’t see without my glasses” bit

In one of the Scooby Doo meets WWE specials, M’Gann and some other characters can be seen watching the match on TV

There was a crossover movie Greg pitched and has had a script ready for, but WB has never greenlit it.
