Young Justice Stats
Statistics interest me. So I thought I'd share some with you guys. (Okay, yeah, I'm procrastinating. But it is my lunch hour, so sue me.)
We have completed (so far) 17 out or our 26 first season Young Justice Scripts. That is NOT the same as completing the episodes. We haven't completed a single episode yet. We don't start post-production until later this month. But we do have 17 scripts in the can.
As of episode 17, we have 147 name characters from the DC Universe. That's an average of introducing 8.6 DC characters per episode. Of course, the reality is that some episodes have introduced many more than that, others fewer. But that's the average.
Our average page count for each script is 33. Our average dialogue count is 235 lines.
We've completed recording on the first 13 episodes. (We've partially recorded episodes 114-116, but are missing a few actors still. We'll record 117 this coming Tuesday after Labor Day.) So the following statistics are only through episode 13:
Total number of actors we've used so far: 47.
Average number of actors we've used per episode: 11.
Of course many actors are in multiple episodes and many are performing more than one character.
Hmm... what else?
All 26 scripts have been assigned to writers. (All 26 premises were written and approved months ago.) As I mentioned above, 1-17 are in the can. Episode 18 is in script. Episodes 19-22 are in outline. Episodes 23-24 are in beat outline. 25-26 are approved premises, waiting in the wings.
We have seven writers, including myself, staff writer Kevin Hopps and our freelancers: Andrew Robinson, Nicole Dubuc, Jon Weisman, Tom Pugsley and Peter David. My fellow producer Brandon Vietti is also heavily involved in the writing process.
Okay, back to work...

Heya Greg! Let me be completely unoriginal and congratulate you on the upcoming Young Justice. I'll definitely be watching. So my question is the pretty simple yes-or-no type: Will you or anyone associated with the show be coming to NY Comicon? No worries if you can't say just yet, but I'd love to get more of a glimpse at what to expect, and of course to see you if I have the chance. Thanks for your time!
Greg responds...
I hope so, but I don't know yet.

Are there any chances Blue Beetle (Jaime Reyes) will appear in Young Justice?
Greg responds...
No comment.

Why is Miss Martian Martian Manhunter’s 16-year old niece, and not a White Martian?
Greg responds...
No comment.
(Or maybe just a suggestion to watch the series when it comes out.)

Hey Greg,
I have question on how the Young Justice shown on tv. Will Young Justice be shown in HD 720p or 1080p?
Greg responds...
I'm not a technical guy. I don't know what any of that means.

1. For Young Justice, who was on that list that you couldn't use?
2. As a producer, do you control all major storylines that the writers use?
Greg responds...
1. It's VERY short. But I don't see any value in publicizing it.
2. As producers, Brandon Vietti and I control ALL story lines, major and minor.

Mr. Weisman, I've heard that Ice could be seen alongside several cold-themed villains in the Young Justice trailer at Comic-con. Is she a villain in this show?
Greg responds...
That's a mistake someone on the internet made that was widely repeated by others as if it were fact. Ice is not in the clips we've shown.
That's not to say one way or another whether she's in the series and if so in what role, but she's NOT in the clips we've shown at Comic-Con or elsewhere.

I have one last question. Is there going to be a trailer released for Young Justice anytime soon? Possibly in the coming weeks, also is the animation that was shown behind the scenes the final look of the cartoon? Then the last and but not least, will the Young Justice team be shown going to school and dealing with teachers and friendships such as The Spectacular Spiderman did?
Greg responds...
1. I'm not sure what the marketing plan is, but we've already released some footage.
2. Basically, yes.
3. Yes.

Hi, Greg. First time asking a question, so I'll dive right in.
I've been reading up on the new young Justice series and it seems like it could be fairly fantastic. Something struck me as curious, however. Most sites seem to be stating that the new new Aqualad character will be the team leader.
This to me seems a little bit strange considering that Dick Grayson is on the team. Given that Dick is pretty much DC's most prolific and natural team leader (Teen Titans in various incarnations including the cartoon, Outsiders, even the Justice League for awhile)
So, my question is this... Why was Aqualad picked as the leader here? Editorial mandate? Trying something different? Dick not being the same given the different continuity? Personal preference? Aqualad was appointed by the League?
It's a pretty fascinating choice. I hope it's not a hush hush sort of deal and that you can answer. if you can't, that's cool too.
All the best to you and yours!
Greg responds...
It's a wait and see thing.

Hey Greg ,
I have another question about the episode storytelling in the Young Justice cartoon. Is the cartoon's episodes going to be told similar to The Spectacular Spiderman and Gargoyles with one long story arc, that ends each season with a big bang, But in each season the characters still recall what happened in the first season or will the show be told similar to Teen Titans and JLU where each episode has its own story?
Greg responds...
Like all my shows - including SpecSpidey - Young Justice is both episodic and sequential, with building arcs.
