First off, thank you for taking the time to read my question.

Second, I just want to say that you guys are doing a phenomenal job with Young Justice. I'm loving every second of it and I'm a huge fan of Gargoyles (My sister used to watch it when I was a little kid. I never remembered much, but I did remember Goliath and Elisa). Anyway, you've all done a great job with character designs, plot, animation, all in all, everything! The one thing that I'm loving about your show is the continuity and you've handled it extremely well, something that some cartoons nowadays are lacking.

Robin is by far my favorite character. I just love his laugh and playing around with English grammar. I'll admit, I was a little worried when I read that he was voiced by Jesse McCartney, but after hearing him, I really like it! I've noticed when I was looking through the archive of questions that some people have been giving you a rough time for Megan's catchphrase. Even though I find it a tad annoying, it's not enough for me to hate it. In fact, I think it's cute and really suits her personality. So good on you for sticking it to the haters! I've just got a couple of questions.

1. With Barbara Gordon's cameo and since she was Dick's girlfriend in the DC mainstream, will Robin have a love interest and is it Barbara? I'd ask if she'll become Batgirl, but I have an idea of what you'd say to that.

2. I was really caught off guard by episode 14 when Blue Devil, Guy Gardner, Plasticman, Rocket and Icon came in. Does this mean we will be seeing many other DC heroes that were not introduced as part of the Justice League? Where have they been this entire time and why were they not part of the League? Will they be?

3. Sadly, the only thing in your wonderful show that has disappointed me is the Joker, one of the most iconic villains. He looked like the Joker, but he just didn't feel like him. I'm not going to shout at you for how you portrayed him, but I'm curious as to why you chose to portray him the way you and your team did. Why wasn't he voiced by Mark Hamill?

4. Since Superboy has taken in Wolf, will he be taking in more strays as the series progresses? Why does the Sphere not accompany them on missions like Wolf does?

5. Relationships don't last forever, so will Superboy and Miss Martian break up at some point (not that I want them to)? They are teenagers after all and dealing with, as you put it, "romance issues, sex pounding in your head and all sorts of hormones."

7. Where was the rest of the Team during "Terrors?"

8. It was stated in your interview with World's Finest that Young Justice: Invasion would focus on an alien invasion. Is the invading force Braniac?

9. Since Red Arrow and Cheshire were romantically involved in the DC mainstream, will they be a romance pairing in the show (as inferred from "Targets")?

I would have several other questions, but the response you'll likely provide would be SPOILER or NO COMMENT, so I figured I'll just save you the trouble on those ones. ^_^

Greg responds...

1. ASKED AND ANSWERED.

2. Stay tuned. (And just because one debuts as a 'hero' doesn't make it automatic that one's granted membership in the League.)

3. I just can't really understand the thought process behind this question. Why not ask me why I'm not using Cesar Romero as the Joker? (I mean - beyond the fact that he's dead.) We're starting fresh with a fresh interpretation. And frankly, when Brent Spiner was done recording Joker, we were all thrilled.

4. ASKED AND ANSWERED.

5. NO COMMENT.

6. You had no question 6.

7. See issues 16 and 17 of the Young Justice Comics.

8. NO COMMENT.

9. NO COMMENT.
