Legacy writes...

I was wondering about the Young Justice video game. Usually when a game comes out on multiple platforms there are differences between each one, both major and minor, due to differences between the system. As Young Justice: Legacy has been revealed to be available on at least five systems, there will most likely be at least minor differences. Is there a specific version you feel is the most canon out of them all?

Thanks.

Greg responds...

I'm not well-versed enough about the differences in various platforms to comment. No one's told me that there are different versions of the game.

You said before that after season one was finished you could talk more about the characters selected to be a part of the team during the season...So, what made you choose those characters for season 1?

Greg responds...

I think I've already answered this generally. Check the archives. If you have more specific questions AFTER reading our general approach, I'm happy to answer them.

Wow! The season finale was phenomenal! Can't wait for Invasion! :)

1. In the comics, Roy's middle name is William. Is that true for Earth-16 as well?

Thanks so much!

Greg responds...

1. I dunno. Probably.

Of course. He's ALWAYS known.

Who assigns storyboard artists? You've got big names like Lauren Montgomery, Curt Geda, Michael Goguen, some lesser known ones, and some who I think are people at MOI.

Greg responds...

The directors make board assignments - to a great extent based on who is AVAILABLE. We have/had some staff board artists, but a lot of the work was done freelance.

Does the Justice League or a League member (i.e. Batman, Martian Manhunter) know that the Team have a telepathic link?

If the answer is "yes", why, in the season finale, does Klarion only command just Red Tornado to neutralize Aqualad? Would it not be better to have all Team members subdued at the same time?

Greg responds...

1. They know M'gann is capable of creating one, if that's what you mean.

2. Now, how would Tornado have accomplished that? You have to start somewhere.

I have a question do you are going to ever release a soundtrack or the little music in the background of each episode in a disk because I love the sounds that you put? sorry if the question is silly or stupid I could`t contain myself to ask.by the way my brother and I love your show.

Greg responds...

I don't think it's a dumb question at all, and there's been some discussion about it. I have nothing concrete to report at this time, but if/when I do, believe me I'll be pimping it here. (I assume we're talking about YJ, right?)

Hi Greg. Two unrelated questions.

1) I just realized it. Robin actually hit Shimmer in "The Usual Suspects!" How did you get away with that? My understanding is that a guy hitting a girl in a show like this is strictly verboten.

2) Why did M'gann revert to her white martian form when confronting J'onn in Auld Acquaintance? It seemed unnecessary.

Thanks, Greg.

Greg responds...

1. From where did this "understanding" come?

2. It freed up her entire focus on the psychic. She's more powerful in that form.

1. Where Dr.Spence, Dubbliex, and the Genomorphs get killed at the end of "Auld Aquaintance"?

2. Did Sportsmaster, and Bane get sent to Belle Reve *hopes that this isn't a spoiler question*

3. Since Hugo Strange is no longer the warden of Belle Reve, did Amanda Waller get her job back?

Anyways, Greg. With Young Justice you've created a really really great show, when you look at the season, it's just one big superhero epic, This show is up there with Justice League, BTAS,and Spectacular Spider Man.

Greg responds...

1. They didn't.

2. It's kind of a moot question by the beginning of Season Two.

3. NO COMMENT.

4. Thanks.

During "Performance" Dick's eyes are clearly visible, yet despite not seeing them before, the team didn't react. I'm curious why this was and if nothing will be mentioned about his eyes or secret identity again. I mean, Dick Grayson is kind of well known, and I feel they should be able to recognize him from the media, thus giving up his secret identity. I know the Young Justice universe is different than the others, but I find it odd that Robin would show his eyes because despite being more trusting than Batman, he still seems to be very cautious. Anyways, I was just wondering if Robin's eyes or identity will be covered. Love the show a whole lot and thanks for taking time to answer question!

Greg responds...

How is Dick Grayson "well known"? Because as a kid he was a circus performer? Because his parents were murdered? Because he was adopted by Bruce Wayne? Any media that might have been generated by any of this was FOUR YEARS AGO. Think about how much physcial change any boy goes through between the ages of 9 and 13. And do you really think any media focused close enough on his eyes that Roy or Artemis would have studied them so closely that four years later they'd recall those eyes when they see them out of context? (And of course, Superboy wasn't born four years ago, and M'gann wasn't on Earth.)

And in any case, Dick WAS WEARING A MASK the whole time. If glasses work for Clark Kent, then a mask can certainly work for Dick Grayson even if his irises and pupils are visible.

I heard that it was previously stated (though this may be incorrect) that Robin wasn't going to get a love interest. What prompted you to change this? I also just wanted to pop in and say I love the show:)

Greg responds...

You "heard it was previously stated"? Heard where? Stated by whom? It was certainly never previously stated by ME.

Nothing changed. Our plans for the character remained the same from beginning to end.

Marvelman writes...

Hi, Greg. Sorry. But this is a criticism. As a huge Captain Marvel fan, I was a little miffed by how Zatanna took out Captain Marvel in the fight on board the watchtower. Captain Marvel has in recent years been depicted as being invulnerable to all but the highest level magic. Furthermore, Billy's powers come from a lord of order - Shazam! Would a spell of that magnitude really be affected by Zatanna's "baby magic?" It is (maybe) a minor detail, but I think you were being inconsistent in regards to Zatanna's power level here. Now, if it had been Klarion or Fate casting the spell...

I would like to thank-you though for a great if extremely protracted season. I do sometimes go out of my way to be polite because others on this forum can be so rude, but I'm not kissing your butt here. I think Young Justice is the best superhero show ever. And yes, I am ranking it above Batman: the Animated Series.

Greg responds...

Well, we'll just have to disagree. If Captain Marvel can be blindsided by a punch, he can be blindsided by a magic spell. And Zatanna's abilities may be "baby magic" to a LORD OF CHAOS, but Cap is no Lord of Chaos or Order - even if his powers do "come from a lord of order" (which by the way, I'm neither confirming or denying vis-a-vis Earth-16). Cap has a kryptonite-like vulnerability, which Zatanna exploited.

And for the record, statements like "X has in recent years been depicted" don't interest me much. I'm always trying to get to the core truth of any character in the show. But most of these characters are older than I am, and I can't be enslaved by every depiction that ever existed, whether recent or not.

Otherwise, thanks for the kind words.

Just wanted to tell you that my 7 & 8 yr old daughters love your show. The 8 year old wants to BE Artemis. She was so mad when it appeared that she was the mole in last weeks episodes that she yelled "that's not fair". She was relieved to find out that Artemis was not a traitor. They also loves the New Years eve kisses. I love the show because I'm a DC geek from way back and I think your version of the JL is the best in any medium ever. Absolutely love it. And thanks for giving us a show that we can enjoy together.

Greg responds...

That was the goal. I'm extraordinarily glad it's working for your family. Thanks.

-John Stewart and Hal Jordan REALLY don't like Guy Gardner. Is there a reason for that?

-Why isn't the Watchtower weaponized?

-Do Batman or Black Canary have any kind of mentor-student relationship to Wildcat in this universe?

-What exactly do Bruce Wayne and Lex Luthor know about each other? Have they ever met?

-Depictions of Batman tend to fall between two extremes. On end of the spectrum is the Ubermensch Batman who can predict everything, is always right, take down the Justice League on his own, outmatch Darkseid, and can fight Superman solo and win. On the other end of the spectrum is the Chris Nolan kind of Batman who is just a regular guy of slightly above average intelligence who fights crime with resourcefulness and rigorous training, with backup guys like Lucius Fox doing most of the genius work. A happy medium between these two I would say is the Batman from the Justice League series and BTAS. Where would you say your Batman falls on this scale? Towards one end, the other, or in the middle?

Greg responds...

1. ASKED AND ANSWERED.

2. Why would it be?

3. Black Canary was mentored by Wildcat, among others. Batman worked with him too.

4. I'm sure they've met.

5. The middle, I guess. Though I'm not sure Nolan's Batman really represents one end of the scale. Particularly if the other end is a Batman that's omniscient, omnipresent and omnipotent.

What were you most and least satisfied with as far as Season 1 turned out? Nice finale by the way.

First off, I wanted to commend you for creating an amazing show, Young Justice. I love it. I have one question regarding Superman and Superboy:

Do they age at the same rate as a normal human, or is their lifespan much longer?

Greg responds...

By now you know that Superboy doesn't visibly age at all.

Superman ages at just a slightly slower rate than the normal human.

Mr. Greg Weisman,

The Season One finale episode was the best episode ever next to "Usual Suspects." It's been a great first season, and I hope the second season does just as good. On to my questions for this particular episode.

1. Was the kryptonite that Robin used to stop Superman actually shaped like a bullet? I wasn’t sure since he moved it towards the screen rather quickly.

2. Batman was under the influence of Starro Tech when he said that Roy Harper was switched with his clone shortly after becoming Green Arrow’s protégé. Personally, I DON’T think Batman was telling the truth at that time (because heroes under the influence of mind-control never do tell the REAL truth). With that fact in mind, was the real Roy Harper on ANY of the past Season One episodes besides the brief appearance at Cadmus at the closing moments of the finale episode? It would be hard to believe that the clone has been around since 2007.

3. The six Starro Tech-controlled Justice League members who returned from their unknown mission appeared to be a nod to the two-part Justice League episode called “A Better World,” in which they were a group of anti-heroes called the Justice Lords in an alternate timeline. Am I correct with what I just said? Now that I think about it, were any other nods to other DC animated media during this entire season? If there was, then this must have been the only one that I’ve actually noticed.

4. Are Dr. Spence and all the Genomorphs at Cadmus dead… or were they just knocked out? Also, if Guardian WAS the cause of it (regardless of what their fate was), was it because he was also under the influence of Starro Tech as well?

5. Because Vandal Savage was registered as designation A04, I’m worried that if his designation is not removed, he can not only gain access to Watchtower, but to other locations such as The Hall of Justice and Mount Justice, and therefore all secret locations could be compromised. With the immediate crisis over, will Vandal Savage’s designation be removed from Justice League computer systems?

Thanks for taking the time to read my questions. Looking forward to the Invasion in the coming week!

Greg responds...

1. I don't remember the shape per se.

2. No. Batman (or rather Vandal using Batman as a mouthpiece) used the partial truth to create a more convincing lie.

3. Not particularly. It was more of just a general nod to the Justice League series as a whole.

3a. Probably. None that leap out at me.

4. Knocked out.

4a. By now you know Guardian was a clone too. So, no, it wasn't Starro-Tech. It was his Cadmus programming.

5. Of course.
