It appears my last post was deleted in light of your new no-long-lists policy (I have to say I agree, though this time around, my list was only three questions.) So, I resubmit one question, and come up with two new ones (all sort of Captain Atom-y related). I hope it gets through.

1. In the whole JLA/I/E/Extreme Justice era of the 90s, Captain Atom did not get along with Wonder Woman. Green Arrow and Hawkman were never big friends, and Batman seems to detest anything that glows green. Are there any "fights" or rivalries in the League in YJ, or are they all big super friends?

2. Seeing as how the Vietnam War is now over 40 years ago, and not 20 as it was when you and Cary wrote the Captain Atom comics, how does it influence characters? Rako was made a kid (and around 50 now?), but how old are Rois and Eiling? They both have to be well over sixty, or even seventy.

3. Which Captain Atom-derived character is your favorite, Major Force or Bombshell?

Greg responds...

1. Without going into details, they all get along professionally, but some are better friends than others.

2. Yep. It's an issue that I've largely avoided dealing with so far. But eventually. The main shift that through me so far, was how old I had to make Peggy Adams Eiling.

3. I'm not that familiar with Bombshell, and I co-created Major Force, so... take a guess.

hope this is good with the new guidelines.

1. Is Aquaman king of Atlantis, or King of All Seas?
2. Is all of Atlantis in the Atlantic? I'm just asking because "Lemuria" shares its name with the hypothetical sunken land in the Indian Ocean.
3. Is Poseidonis in the northern of southern hemisphere?

Greg responds...

1. Technically, his title is "Orin, King of Atlantis, Poseidonis and the Seven Seas".

2. SPOILER REQUEST. NO COMMENT.

3. Northern.

1. Correct me if I’m somehow mistaken, but wasn’t there supposed to be some kind of catastrophe that nearly wiped out the Martian race at some point on Earth-16 or did that catastrophe never happened at all and all the Martians still alive?

2. Were ALL White Martians treated as second-class citizens, or were there those within the Red/Green Martian population who might have been sympathetic towards them? It would be hard to believe that the ENTIRE Red and Green Martian population would be so cold towards the White Martian population.

Greg responds...

1. Before I answer, please tell me where "wasn't there supposed to be" comes from. I'm curious.

2. Nothing's monolithic. For example, J'onn obviously has no anti-White bias.

Derek writes...

In the marvel Avengers Academy series, the cast is made up of characters that could have potentially become supervillains. The goal of the Avengers is to basically put them on the straight and narrow.
Are there deliberate similarities in this concept to Young Justice.I notice that Miss Martian, Superboy, Artemis and possibly Aqualad all have villanious ancestry. Also the loss of Zatanna and Robin's parents could have served as catalyst to send them down a dark path.

Greg responds...

I think we deal with this most directly with Artemis and Superboy, but the idea of the road not taken is an important theme to the series.

1. Out of uniform/costume, are there any significant physiological difference between Thanagarians and humans along the same lines as those between humans and kryptonians, or humans and Martians (ie slowed aging, enhanced strength or vision, weakness to elements etc.)?

2. Would you please clarify Hawkman and Hawkwoman's powers on Earth 16? (as an aside, I hope they have some form of telescopic vision, I always like when that was included as part of their powers in the comics)

3. We've only seen Hawkman and Hawkwoman use maces so far. Are these special Thanagarian maces and do they ever use other archaic style weaponry (ie spears, nets, swords, or shields)?

4. At top flight speed can the Hawks keep up with the likes of Superman and Captain Marvel?

5. In the comics, the Hawks feared using Thanagarian weapons and technology on Earth in case they fell into the wrong hands. Thus they started using ancient Earth weaponry instead. Does this part of their origin hold true on Earth-16?

I love the show and the character designs for Hawkman and Hawkwoman on Earth-16. I hope at some point you delve into how they came to be on Earth in the first place. Also, I hope we get more scenes that focus on how the media and the general public react to the League and superheroes. I loved hearing the reporters questions after the induction ceremony in the Usual Suspects. It's always fascinating to think about how ordinary people would react to such a strange world. Also, I hope we get more school scenes for Wally, Dick, and Artemis.

Young Justice deserves 10 seasons and a movie. Keep up the great work!

Greg responds...

1. Well, there are the wings...

2. No.

3. SPOILER REQUEST. NO COMMENT.

4. If all four are each flying at their top speed, then no.

5. SPOILER REQUEST. NO COMMENT.
