One thing i forgot in the Adam question earlier did the officers understand anything he said or was the translation just for Sardath and Alanna?

Reagarding adam's distaction in Earthlings could one assume he is a Lewis Carol fan or did he just think of the craziest words he could? and why did the others look surprised was works by famed authors not part of Conners g-nome homeschool, or Happy Harbor High English class?

Since Black Manta had replaced Ocean-Master as a member of the Light can we assume that he inherited Ocean-Master's code name of L-5?

Mr. Greg Weisman,

This posting is about my thoughts on the May 12th episode of YJ:Invasion. If you see questions, you'll know when you see it.

I watched "Alienated," and I still can't believe Aqualad became a traitor. According to his claims, he blames The Team for the death of Tula. He also blames Aquaman for not telling him about his relationship to Black Manta. I'm surprised that Aquaman knew all along in this Earth-16 continuity. When Aqualad tries to escape, Nightwing and Superboy try to take matters into their own hands and attempt to stop him on their own, but the distraction of the bomb complicated things. It's worth nothing, as I'm sure you've seen on the episode, that it seemed like Aqualad personally wanted to fight one-on-one with Nightwing (since he said "Just you and me, old friend"). He obviously didn't get a chance this week, but I have a feeling that their personal showdown is inevitable.

Otherwise, this has been a great episode this week. We got to see Wonder Woman and Wonder Girl team up. We got to see the entire Bat Family (sans Jason Todd) in action. We also see Superman's relationship with Superboy greatly improved as they treated each other more like brothers rather than as father and son. Was it my imagination, or was Superboy called Kon-El?

The sad part, beside Aqualad being a traitor, was the fact that the accused members of Justice League (along with few that are joining them voluntarily) had to leave for trial since they now found out what they did. I hope everything goes well in that trial on whichever episode shows up in the future.

Oh, and another thing, since Black Manta is replacing Ocean-Master (who's oddly been disgraced for unknown reasons), is he filling in his former position in The Light?

Thanks for taking the time to read this posting.

Absolutely loved this episode! I was AWSOME!!! I especially loved the interaction between Clark and Conner; when he called him "little brother" I couldn't have been more happy!! I was all AAAWWWWWWWWWWWWW! ^_~

Also Blue Beetle doesn't fail to bring a chuckle to me with everyone constantly thinking that he's talking to himself...

Question regarding him though; I know this series is different considering that this is another Earth, but in the comics the scarab was against causing physical harm to living things, even almost getting Jamie killed sometimes. Yet in "Alienated" it sounds like the scarab wanted to vaporise the Krolotaian.

1. So is this scarab different in this way?

Also I noticed a young African-American boy with dreadlocks in the Hall of Justice looking at what I guess were a pair of Cheshire's katanas?

2. Was this a young Virgil Hawkins?

One of the many things that I love about this series is that it's like a "where's Waldo" of DC comic book characters.

Keep up the good work! Hope you get a season 3! I'd love to see this show continue past this season.

Dear Greg.
I am a big fan of your work, in particular Gargoyles, Spectacular Spider-Man and Young Justice, and as an aspiring writer, your technique of plotting, use of foreshadowing and Chekov's Guns are a big influence on me.

Here are a couple of questions:
1. What is your approach to plotting a series?
2. And who are your influences as a writer?

To end this off, I would like to thank you for all of your excellent work in every field you have participated in, and I hope to see further projects from you in the future.

Joe

Greg, DC should let you do a Justice League series based on the New 52. I like the way you write and have a healthy respect for all characters and development of them feels more authentic than anything I saw even in the JL/U series. You don't dumb anything down and treat your audience as intelligent by challenging us to think/react. Thank you for such a great show as Young Justice.

Hi Greg!
Thanks for the amazing work on YJ! I was never even into comics before, but after watching episodes with my little brother, I have to admit I'm hooked. So thanks :)

Anyway, just one question: You guys were permitted to continue with Season 2 : Invasion around the beginning of Season 1 I think. So if you hadn't been allowed a Season 2, would Season 1 with a different, finite ending? And once you were granted with S2, did you have to change a lot of plans?

Thanks so much for your time, I can't wait to watch the next episode!
