For the animated series, see Young Justice (2010).
Comic
- Arrowette in Young Justice telling off the JLA for being dicks, including standing up to Batman's glare. Admittedly, she had a mini nervous breakdown immediately afterwards, but...
- Wonder Girl singlehandedly saving Young Justice's reputation on national television, with a little assistance from sketch artist Impulse. A little short lived, but...
- Her metafictional MOA came near the end of YJ's run. YJ's wirter, Peter David, staged a reader's poll election for the next leader of YJ, with the 4 candidates being WG, Superboy, the Ray, and returning former leader Robin. Readers were invited to mail in their postcards with their name and address stating which of the four they wanted leader, and Wonder Girl won! To put this in perspective, Wondy was the only one of the four candidates who had never had her own series, when she debuted, she'd been regarded by many readers as a bit of a Scrappy before Peter David resuced her from the Scrappy heap, and she beat the Goddamned Batman's Goddamned Robin!
- Robin taking on Harm, who had previously knocked Superboy and Wonder Girl around, by himself, and actually winning for a moment using his prior observations of Harm fighting.
- Robin, Superboy, Impulse, and the Secret defeating Despero (who tends to give the entire Justice League a hard time) in under 22 minutes and proving themselves to the JLA.
- Nightwing at the Young Justice Parent-Teacher conference. When Arrowette's mother said that he couldn't possibly know what it feels like to have a loved one out there, he fired back with "Lady, every morning when I drift to sleep, I hear the screaming of loved ones I didn't save. Don't you dare lecture me on what I don't know."
- The Ray gets one while various team members, but ESPECIALLY Superboy and Wonder Girl, were fighting over who gets to be team leader, the following exchange happens after Wondy knocks Superboy over after he boasts about how tough he is.Superboy: *uses his telekinesis to send Wonder Girl through the roof* Yeah! Who's the man?!Ray: *blasts Superboy* I'm am! You're the boy, she's the girl, and I am SO MUCH THE FREAKIN' MAN!
- This is made even better because Ray, despite being by FAR the most powerful member of the team (sans possibly Secret) had been largely marginalized since joining the book. This is one of about four moments in the entire series where PAD gave Ray his due, and it was a great one. It even comes with an awesome power-up shot for Ray.
- Ray gets another one in the second-to-last story, as Lady Zand has been successfully kicking the crap out of 50+ superheroes, Ray expends all his power to take her out... and give all the heroes and villains present sunburn.
- Turk, the werewolf with a grudge against Cissie, realizes her secret identity and monologues how he plans on using it to ruin her life. Cue a pair of silver-coated blades impaling him, and Empress making it very clear that if he does anything to hurt Cissie that she will not hesitate to kill him.
- Klarion (bum bum bum) the Witch Boy is a powerful sorcerer who all but incapacitated the entire Justice League in Sins of Youth. So naturally, when Batgirl gets in his way, he assumes he'll have an easy time destroying her. Then he blinks, and she's gone. Cue No-Holds-Barred Beatdown as she Flash Steps so fast that Klarion has no chance to retaliate.
- The last issue is basically one long MoA for most of the cast, including Impulse's awesome speech about fear, Robin's conversation with Secret, Snapper's faith in Young Justice, and of course, (blind at this point) Slobo's big finish.Darkseid: None treat Darkseid, Lord of Apokolips in this manner. And as long as I am master of the Omega Effect, none shall!Slobo: Oh, I think I shall, gravel puss! 'Cause I got a last hurrah comin' on! *leaps at the personification of cosmic evil*
