On the team right now who is the best hand to hand fighter? 2. What's Wonder Woman's relationship like with her immediate and biological family? 3. Does Superboy know anything about Krypton? 4. Artemis grandparents were they good people or were they similar to her parents? 5. Back when the team was in Biyala the Light mentioned they had a new partner does this mean their new partner was joining the group of seven or did it mean they have a new business associate

Since Klarion is a L.O.C on Earth-16 does that mean-
1. he is not from the WitchWorld ?
2. he cannot be killed,only banished back to his home dimension ?
3. he did NOT turn his parents into mice and feed them to Teekl ?

In the early days of "Ask Greg", you did a little mini-ramble about how the key to a great villain is to give him or her traits that echo the traits of the hero. You illustrated it with Batman's rogues gallery, in the course of which you mentioned that while you were able to fit Riddler into it (since he's setting riddles and puzzles against Batman, who's a detective), he never grabbed you as much as the other villains.

I haven't seen any of the episodes of "Young Justice" past "Downtime" yet, but I've read about them and learned that Riddler appears in them as one of the Light's agents (and was even introduced in an episode where he's in a prison for super-villains, all the other super-villains make fun of him, but when there's an attempted break-out, Riddler is the only one who escapes). Have your thoughts on Riddler changed since you wrote that mini-ramble (it was in the late 90's, I recall, so there'd have been much time for that)? Of course, it might not be relevant to his role in "Young Justice", since its leads are the team rather than Batman (even though he's one of its supervisors, and Robin is one of its members), so the antagonists in "Young Justice" would be chosen more for how they reflect the traits, strengths, and weaknesses of the team than those of Batman.

I love YJ! The writing is fabulous. I'm a teenage girl and this is the only television show I've regularly watched in a long time. Keep up the great work! A huge 'thanks' to you and your team.

Mr. Greg Weisman,

I must please ask out of utmost respect that this posting must not be deleted under any circumstances! After watching the season premiere of Young Justice: Invasion, I may have figured something out, and I wish for you to read this!

Five years have passed since the aftermath of the events of “Auld Acquaintance,” and it is clear that things have changed a great deal. When I realized there was a time-skip in this episode, my intial thought was that you might have made this move out of inspiration from the DC relaunch (ie. an origin story, like the Justice League in the relaunched comics, taking place five years prior). You must understand that it seemed reasonable for a time, because I believed for a moment that everything that happened in Season One seemed more like an origin story since there is a time-skip this season. However, while watching “Happy New Year,” and thinking about the time-skip some more, I have come to a possible conclusion and wish to ask you this: Is it possible the reason for the time-skip has something to do with the upcoming Young Justice: Legacy video game (coming in 2013, as I’ve read on the internet)? I might have asked questions about the game before in a prior posting, but now the time-skip seems to make sense and everything seems to connect. No other person prior to me might have asked you about it, but I believe that whatever happened within the unexplained five years might have something to do with whatever events will occur in the upcoming game, hence the game’s presented tagline, “One will Rise. One Will Fall. One will Die.” Is my deduction correct?

Thanks for taking the time to read this particular posting. It means a lot.

Hey Greg,

Huge fan of Gargoyles back in the day and love the new series.

Question regarding the time skip between seasons 1 and 2 of Young Justice: Was it something planned since the show's conception, that YJ would be a story through the generations of this world of heroes? Or was it just a handy way to clear the boards for a fresh team?

Or to put it another way: Did you do a new team so you could have a time skip? Or do a time skip so you could have a new team? or a bit of both?

raymond writes...

hey greg. is there a plan for the young justice comic to follow along with the events in young justice invasion once all your current stories are told. i'm a huge fan of the show as well as the book and will follow along both as long as they are produced. huge thanks to everyone at both creative teams for creating and working on such a stellar universe. :)

You seemed to imply that White Martian were at the bottom of a caste system on Mars. If this is the case then Miss Martian having natural abilities exceeding a powerful green martian could potentially make her politically dangerous?

Cartoon Networks usually limits most of their series to 65 episodes, despite how popular they are. Look at Teen Titans or Batman Brave and the Bold. Do you think that Young Justice will continue past 65 episodes or is there some requirement that production will cease after episode 65?

I tried reading the bazillian questions alrardy asked & answeted, but I cannot find my first question anywhere (if it has been, I appologize, just skip to the second) and I do realize I will most likely get a spoiler message...but here goes:

1. Are the Hawks Carter & Shiara (sp?) or Katar & Shayla (heres hiping hoping for Katar)?

2. In previous answers you stated many times that keeping with early DC tradition was the main reason for using Dick & Wally - even once saying "it wouldnt make sense not to use Dick...my question is, where is that logic when it comes to Aqualad or Wondergirl? Dont get me wrong, I LOVE the new Aqualad (really wished Donna was going to br on the team, though), but it seems like this flies in the face of your own logic.

Hi Greg,

I've never done this kind of thing before but I'm actually extremely curious about a topic regarding to the series Young Justice. Sorry if this may seem confusing, but I'll try and get it out as simply as I can make it:

In the episode "Misplaced" when all of the kids and adults are separated into two different dimensions, Robin states that he can't even contact Red Arrow, letting the audience know that Red Arrow is either eighteen years old or possibly older. I also read a question that you had answered where you clarified this as being true.

However, after the episode Auld Acquaintance, it's revealed that Red Arrow is indeed a clone and has only been around for three years. So if I'm getting this right, the original Roy Harper is eighteen and thus is why the clone looks to be that age. But because the Red Arrow clone is really only three years of age, how come he's not in the same dimension as the kids? I don't know, maybe Klarion's magic took in the factor that physiologically, he is 18 years old.

Sorry for my ranting, but I'm just curious. Thanks!

Dear Greg, I think you are an absolute genius with what you have done with Young Justice. As a twenty year old female college student, there isn’t a lot of things that will get me up early on a Saturday morning. But I cannot lie, Young Justice has tugged on the heartstrings of my inner child and I have truly enjoyed every episode. I love how the show is intended for a younger audience but throws in witty lines & scenarios for mature viewers too. I also really enjoy the “dark/edginess” of the plot that keeps you wondering even after the show has ended. The creativity, thoughtfulness and talent that you and your team put into every episode shows each week.
Wishing you continued success,
Nicole, (a dedicated fan hoping for a season 3!)

Hey Greg! I can't wait to see Wonder girl and the other new young heroes!
My question is about the original Roy, not the clone, while he was in the pod for three years(?) did he grow up and learn new things from the genomes? Or did he stay 15 y.o? I really can't wait to see what you guys do with this! I have a feeling his personality might differ slightly from clone Roy! Thanks! :D

The first season of "Young Justice" takes place over the course of half a year, starting on the Fourth of July and continuing to New Year's Eve in the Season One finale (with episodes set on Halloween and Thanksgiving along the way). I remember that the first season of "The Spectacular Spider-Man" similarly stretched from the start of the school year in September to Thanksgiving (with a Halloween episode along the way), and that the second season got up at least to Valentine's Day. The time progression in "Gargoyles" was more vague, but we had two Halloween stories ("Eye of the Beholder" and the Double Date story) and three wintry episodes in New York ("Her Brother's Keeper", which ends with a snowfall, "Re-Awakening", and "The Price"), as well as a clear timeline for the Stone of Destiny story.

I like this sense of the year's progress through the seasons and landmark days (like the Fourth of July and Halloween), but it doesn't seem that common in animated series outside your own work. I've seen two speculations on why that element is so rare in animated series. One is that a lot of the people who engage in such creative work aren't big on continuity and change, far less than you are. Another is that most people involved in creating animated television series live in or near Los Angeles and other parts of California, where the climate is pretty much the same year around and there's less a sense of four seasons than in other parts of the United States. I was wondering what your thoughts were on these theories.

Shadow Mission writes...

Just a quick question. Is the game Young Justice: Shadow Mission, a game on Cartoonnetwork.com which has Robin trapped in a shadow dimension by Klarion and has cameos by Blue Beetle, Wonder Girl, Miss Martian, Beast Boy, and Superboy canon?
Thanks.

1- Do you feel all this people asking "how old questions" are doing it to annoy you?

2- Do you feel DC fans are different from Marvel ones?

3-How do you feel about the fact that there have been multiple characters with the Robin title and so many similar cases? I feel it just gives fans more reasons to be unhappy. For me Dick is my Robin!

First off, I'd like to apologize on behalf of the abuse you've recieved, Mr. Weisman. You give us the chance to have you personally answer our questions, and your rewarded with rants from the disgruntled fanbase. I'm sorry for this, and understand the added rules because of this outlandish behavior.

Anyways, I was wondering about the Light. How exactly did you come up with this evil cabal of villains? I'm not asking for spoilers, just what made you decide to take these select villains, and organize them into such a secretive, manipulative, and mysterious way of organized crime. The Secret Society and the Injustice League in the comics they weren't anywhere near as badass and secret as this group is! Did the Illuminati from Gargoyles influence their creation a bit?

Thanks for your time, if you decide to answer this! Keep up the excellent work, can't wait for Season 2 of Young Justice!

Hi I think you have done an amazing job with Young Justice Mr Weisman but since I live in the UK I have to watch and appreciate online so I was wondering if and when Young Justice was coming to the UK. If it is please reply so I can note it down.
Thanks :)

1. How much would say past cartoons like Batman: The Animated Series and Justice League Unlimited influenced your work on, Young Justice?

2. Were the six Leaguers in "Auld Acquaintance" who were unaccounted for(Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, Martian Manhunter, Hawkwoman and John Stewart) a reference to the Justice League cartoon, since the show featured an near identical line-up, or was it just a coincidence?
