All right, before I ask my question, I just want to say that Young Justice is one of the most well-written and well-animated shows I've seen in a very long time, and I adore the fact that it is able to take itself seriously and that it develops such compelling characters without heaps of backstory (though, granted, I have yet to read the companion comics). That praise sounded a lot more eloquent in my head. Oh, well.
Anyway, I just wanted to ask something about the episode titles. I've noticed that the majority of the titles are only one word, except for "Independence Day," "Welcome to Happy Harbor," and the last two planned for season one, "Usual Suspects" and "Auld Acquaintance." (I count Alpha-Male and Drop-Zone as one word titles because they have hyphens.)
I just wanted to ask, are the episodes with two words in the title going to be especially important ones, like Independence Day (the pilot) and Welcome to Happy Harbor (the, uh, "second pilot," in which the team itself works together for the first time). I may just be stumbling around in the dark here, and I know it's an odd question, but I was just curious.
Thanks again so, so much for creating such an amazing show! I go running out of class every Friday to catch it, haha.

First of all: Man this show is awesome. Good work!
2nd: I just noticed something in episode 13: Why does M'Gann say that SuperBoy needs to stop acting like a character from a 70's sitcom when she does the same thing?

Greetings Mr. Weisman, I've been deeply enjoying your Young Justice Series, one of my fave shows on TV at the moment (love what ya did with alot of the characters and story elements, Kobra venom is SCARY STUFF). I'd like to ask you...

1) Do Starfire, Redhood AKA Jason Todd, Beastboy, Cyborg, Deathstroke, and Blackfire all exist in Earth/Universe 16?

2) How did you decide which villains to use for the Injustice League & the Inner Circle of the Light? I must confess I was more impressed by the Injustice League's roster, which seemed rather well balanced in terms of skill sets, than the Light's roster, which pretty much consists of schemers, mad scientists, and greedy dictators/rich guys. I was kinda hoping the Light's council would consist of the arch villains of each of the Justice League's founding members, ya know, like Joker for Batman (poor Mr. J got screwed over lol), Lex for Superman (happy to see him again >8D), Cheetah for Wonderwoman, Sinestro for Green Lantern, etc, etc. I mean, I get Lex & Ghul, but the rest of the Light's lineup seems to consist of lesser villains most people outside the DC comic fanbase wouldn't recognize, or who wouldn't be construed as top tier villains who'd make even the heroes nervous to see working in concert (especially the Brain XD). So yeah, what made you decide to delegate which villains to the "fall guys" team & the others to the "masterminds" team?

Thanks for your time and keep up the awesome work on the show, you rule :D

In Welcome to Happy Harbor, at the end, we see T.0. Morrow. Did he create Red Tornado, Torpedo, or Inferno?
Speaking of T.0. Morrow,
Is he in any way relating to Cadmus?
And speaking of Cadmus,
Is Amanda Waller and Hugo Strange still part of Cadmus? And how does Strange become the new warden at Belle Reve?

Hi Greg!
I got a few questions about Captain Marvel:
1. I'm pretty sure I know the answer to this, but: Does any member of the League *cough*Batman*cough* knows Billy's real age?
2. Is Mr. Tawny coming back? And if he does will he wear a plaid shirt?

At the end of Revelation, we see The Light. Could you list the people from left to right from the Light. Is the guy next to the Queen of Bialya Owlman?

Please excuse me if I am wrong..my comic book knowledge is limited. Is the superhero who saves that helicopter in Revelation Mr. Terrific? Who is he?

1) Did Black Manta leave Kaldur to Aquaman, who promised he would take care of him, when he was a baby?
2) Did Lawrence sent Artemis to James Craddock (also known as the Gentleman Ghost in comics) so that he can torture her to shoot a target with her arrow, and if she dosen't, then he shot Paula's legs putting her in a wheel chair? Was Belle Reve that place Paula spent 6 yrs in? Just asking if you could borrow the scene from X-Men: First Class
3) How old is Klarion?
4) Is Vandal Savage 50,000 years old?
5) So in "Infiltrator", Ra's al Ghul congratulated Sensei that he and the Light have a spy under the team, which was mentioned by Sportsmaster in "Targets" saying that he had "very" inside source, so is it possible that Red Tornado is the mole?
6) Wonder Girl's going to appear till episode 19, right?, as a team member?
7) Would we see Artemis with a little flirtation with Icicle, Jr. in "Coldhearted" possibly?
8) How old is Icicle, Sr.?

Cameron writes...

Greg, YJ is the coolest show on tv this days, thanks so much for it ;)
I wanna ask about Icicle Jr.
1. Is hi able to touch people without freezing them when hi is iced up?
2. The collars in Belle Rive, placate his powers and he looked like a normal guy, his skin was normal. But when the collars were stoped his skin looked blue, jagged and pointed again. Can he turn normal skined without usin the collar? or he is jagged and pointed skined full time?
3. Does he and Artemis know in the serie?
4. Whats the deal between he and Dr. Ojo?
Thanks for your time!! Awesome Show :D

What prison(s) were the Injustice League sent to? I think it's pretty safe to say that Joker was sent to Arkham, but other than him I'm not sure.

YJ Questions on Zatara:

1. What nationally is Zatara?

2. In Revelation, how come he wasn't wearing his top hat? Did he had to get the hat washed?

Superguy79 writes...

Hey in regards to Young Justice i was just wondering if the public knew about Superboy? cheers.

ZP writes...

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. ^_^

Is Robin considered a celebrity? He seems well-known amongst the general population. I noticed a little girl holding a stuffed Robin doll and the villians are more familiar with his name.

Alex writes...

I have a few questions about "Revelations".

a. We were treated to cameos of superheroes like Icon, Plastic Man, Guy Gardner, Blue Devil, etc. Are all these superheroes also part of the Justice League or are they just allies?

b. I wasn't much of a fan of Young Justice's Joker although he could grow on me in the future. That being said, why did you shy away from Mark Hammill's classic Joker? Did you think it didn't fit with the series?

c. Why was Black Adam so toned-down? Shouldn't Black Adam be able to take on the whole Young Justice team on his own?

d. Where was Red Arrow in all this chaos? I know he isn't part of YJ or JLA, but you did mention that he's focusing completely on hero-work. The whole world was in crisis, why didn't he participate?

e. If Dr. Fate is so strong, why doesn't Batman and the rest of the JLA find Nabu a suitable host? Surely, Dr. Fate would be an incredible asett to the team and shouldn't be wasted sitting on Kid Flash's shelf.

Thanks for responding!

Will The Shade ever appear on Young Justice? He used to be my favorite character on Justice League.

Anonymous writes...

OK, just for fun -- If you had created the Light for a series set in the Marvel Universe, and you could use any villains you wanted, which 7 would you pick?

Random Fan writes...

Ok, I once read somewhere that next season called invasion will be relaunched with the DCnU. does that mean that characters that no longer exist in the mainline comics (like Wally West) will no longer be canon in Earth-16 Young Justice?

also, this may seem like a stupid question but, does Wally know Batman's secret ID to or just Robin's?

Derek writes...

I love anytime you guys throw fairly obscure characters into YJ, as I'm sure many others do. However, I adored the Blue Devil cameo in "Revelation"--his early comics were so funny and so much fun, and I think he's vastly overrated and has a very cool backstory. He had a similar silent cameo in JLU as well, but seeing him even without lines is cool.

Whose idea was it to throw him in? And actually, on a more general note, where do most of the ideas for using the lesser-known characters you come from? Is it usually more collaborative from the entire writers' room, or do people occasionally throw in their favorites every now and then (especially in bigger fight scenes like "Revelation" where you could feasibly fit in any superhero you want)?

Again, thanks for being awesome!

Brendan writes...

Oh my goodness, so sorry (and feel free to not answer since I forgot to include it on the last one), but was the Injustice League's base modelled after the Legion of Doom's old HQ?

Brendan writes...

Hi Greg! Loving the show so far, and just a few questions.

* Where was Wonder Woman in "Revelation"?
* And in the same episode, were the additional heroes helping out the League (Blue Devil, Icon, Plastic Man, ECT) meant to be members of the JLA's reserve roster or something? Or were they just random heroes?
* Was the use of Rocket and Icon meant as a nod to the late Dwayne McDuffie? Either way, I just wanna thank you so much for including them, as I know he'd be proud to see his work living on in some form.

Keep up the good work!

Hi Greg!
First off, I absolutely LOVE Young Justice. Me and my little sister are addicted to it. It's possibly the best animated show ever, and there's only 14 episodes out! I just have one question, really:
In Bialya, when the patrol leader shouted in Arabic when Robin appeared, he said "Her Majesty wants him alive!". Does this mean that they only wanted Robin, specifically, or did they just want the team in general?
Thanks!!

is Artemis and Kid Flash's "relationship" going to be explored?
