330 - Justice League Unlimited Preview
We've been pretty clear in our Marvel fanboy natures, especially when it comes to comics (we're pretty equal opportunity with films and cartoons), but that doesn't mean we can't pay equal time when the Distinguished Competition also puts out a preview version of their new RPG, so here we are taking a look at Justice League Unlimited. And it's not D&D or anything! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
