Young Justice Season 4 – titled Young Justice: Phantoms – unexpectedly began today, with the first two episodes streaming on HBO Max now.
Announced at DC FanDome 2021 alongside a new trailer, Young Justice: Phantoms will release new episodes every Thursday after today.
While we didn't get definitive story details, we saw plenty of hints towards the season's plotlines, with the sidekicks being left to become their own heroes, romances blossoming, and Superboy seemingly going a little over-the-top with the violence at one point.
Phantoms was announced at last year's FanDome, and we've previously taken our own guesses at what the season's subtitle might mean. Season 3, Outsiders, ended on a high note, and we said that its 3-episode finale allowed "the series to tie up a great many loose ends in a relatively short amount of time. Season 3 ends strong, even as it tees up an even bigger and more ambitious Season 4."
