So, I know that this is right before yet another episode, but, I just had to come say stuff.

You have two episodes that have simply blown my face off. Failsafe (my brain practically melted out of my head, I was so amazed) and Misplaced (I can't even describe my feelings for this episode). That doesn't happen very often from an animated show.

I really adore how you all have been portraying the teen/adult dynamic. It's not the cliche rebellious teens vs. overly righteous and/or idiotic adults, but it's much more...realistic. Well, as realistic as supers can be. You all do such an excellent job of getting into a teenage mindset, and that really impresses me.

M'gann, from what I can tell, either gets a lot of hate, or a lot of love. Personally, I was in the gray area, not quite sure if I liked her being around, or what. I knew I liked her "Hello, Megan!" catch phrase, and I liked that she based a lot of her knowledge off of tv (makes sense). But, now that we've seen more of her, I've come to really appreciate her as a character. She's got her reasons for her personality, and, sure, she's got some naivety, but she's also not a weak damsel in distress - and you all manage to pull that last bit off without making her come across as masculine! Which I love.

Artemis is kind of a big deal to me. I generally hate female characters like her. The strong, tough-girl who doesn't need anyone's help because she can do this, and has a major attitude. So, yes, I was less than thrilled when Artemis was introduced. But, like with M'gann, more came along, and ya'll showed up with little moments (I really warmed up to her from that one little scene in Downtime), and then a bit of her back story, and all of the sudden, Artemis' whole demeanor had meaning, and I was able to connect, understand, and love her character.

Everyone else I pretty much loved first off (big Batman fan - oh, yeah, your Batman series? My favorite. FYI. - so, Robin had no need to wiggle his way into my heart).

I also love how easily you all eased Zatanna into being a regular and new teammate (I'm assuming. I think it's safe to assume such things at this point). I didn't want her part of the team at first, but you all did such a fantastic job at giving her more time with the team, and more screen-time, that, I rather like having her around, now.

So, yeah. Thanks, well done, do more goodness. I hope to have my face blown off, and my brain melted out of my head again. Go tell everyone that they're my favorites. Yourself included.

Greg responds...

"[My] Batman series?" Uh. I never had one. I did freelance write a bunch of episodes for "The Batman", but that hardly makes it "mine".

Otherwise, thank you!

Hi Greg,
I was just wondering, what happened to all the newborn babies and children in airplanes and automobiles and what not, when the adults disappeared in "Misplaced"? That's a lot of kids/babies. If they all died, how is the world responding to this tragedy?

Greg responds...

I'll leave that to your imagination.

1. Allow me to rephrase a previous question: what kind of persona does Earth-16 Superman project when he's Clark Kent?

2. Did Vandal Savage get those scars before or after the meteor?

3. In terms of strength, how does Icon compare with Superman?

Greg responds...

1. You've seen him. What do you think?

2. Before.

3. ASKED AND ANSWERED.

Just a couple of questions,
1. Is Dick's uncle in a coma? (sorry if thats a spoiler or already asked, I looked!)
2. Does Dick like his hair better gelled or down?
3. What is your opinion on cliffhangers as season finales?
Thanks!

Greg responds...

1. SPOILER REQUEST. NO COMMENT.

2. Probably sans gel.

3. Depends on execution, etc.

First of all, I LOVED the last episode of Young Justice, I even teared up some at the end! But it got me wondering, do Batman and Robin have a good relationship on Earth 16? I mean, we saw them play basketball and that was sweet, but we haven't seen anything else! They completely ignored each other in Misplaced! So, I guess what I'm asking is if they have a father/son relationship or if it's more like a mentor/sidekick relationship?
Awesome series, btw, can't wait for more!! :)

One other question that needs asking.

1. Why did you make Ma'alefa'ak the name of a type of Martian animal instead of Martian Manhunter's evil twin brother like in the mainstream comics? I mean, I know he was responsible for the Martian genocide which you took out, but he was awesome on "Justice League: Doom" and he could be used for another important role on Earth-16.

Hi Greg, I'm a big fan of your work and the artwork done by Phil Bourassa (hope I spelled that right) for Young Justice. I'm excited for Cold Hearted and I'm still freaking out over the end of Misplaced, but I have a question about Klarion's magic circle. Why is it that none of the wizards he summoned were not surprised by being summoned to an island by a Lord of Chaos? The episode was amazing, but that just seems a little surprising that none of them didn't at least jut look around for a second with a WTF look.

Greg responds...

They were expecting the summons.

In Misplaed before escaping did Klarion call the team armadillos?

Greg responds...

Yes. Yes, he did. I think he meant to say "Alligators". But he's kinda chaotic in his thinking.

1) Did Vandal Savage adopt different identities over the years?
2) Did he adopt new looks?
2a) If so, how did he manage to make do with such prominent and distinctive scars across his face?

Greg responds...

1. Yes.

2. Not particularly, though I'm sure facial hair came and went. And you should have seen that perm he had in the 70s. ;)

2a. He'd just flat out disappear for decades between identities and change locations. Until at least the mid-20th century, there was really no way anyone could possibly identify him.

Hi Greg! Thanks again for both the show and your willingness to answer questions.

On Earth-16, did Giovanni Zatara ever work with an assistant named Tong as he did back in his original ACTION COMICS appearances, or have you dropped that little bit of Mandrake the Magician rip-offery?

2a. SPOILER REQUEST. NO COMMENT.

2b. She is still 15 at the end of Season One.

Hi, Greg! :) Me and my family love this show. I talk about it all the time during shcool. All the heroes you show in Young Justice had convinsed me to buy my first comic book (the new 52 made it really easier, though!!!) Thank you for answering these questions and um I'm really really sorry if these questions are too spoiler-ish or if they have been answered before...

1. To my wiki knowledge, I don't think Megan has ever been with Superboy. Or Wally with Artemis. What made you choose these two people to go together. Basically, what made you decide on the pairings?

2. Does Artemis have a mentor bond with Green Arrow, or is the niese thing just a cover and that's it?

3. Were the main team's personalities made just for the show or were they influensced by the comics? Because I googled Superboy once and he was shown to be really outgoing and cheerful, which surprised me.

4. Captain Marvel shocked me when he transformed into a kid maybe even younger than me1! He's so cool. But when I searched his name in wiki, it said he has a twin sister and a lot of sidekicks and goes to an orphanage school (thats so sad!). In the show, though, he lives with an uncle(?) I think. So, um, where is Captain Marvel timeline-wise? Was this when he was already adopted and before he found his sister?

Thank you very much for your time!

Greg responds...

1. Felt right to us.

2. The niece thing was a cover, but they did quickly develop a mentor/protegee bond, which you'll see more of if you pick up our companion comic book, particularly in issue #16.

3. Both.

4. SPOILER REQUEST. NO COMMENT.

1.) How well known are Bruce Wayne and Dick Grayson? To clarify, would they be easily recognized if someone happened to pass them on the street or are they mostly out of the limelight?
2.) Was Bruce Wayne's adoption of Dick Grayson well-publicized?
3.) What is Bruce Wayne's position in Wayne Enterprises? Does he have controlling stock?

Greg responds...

1. Bruce Wayne is a public figure - though hardly a Hollywood star type. Dick is pretty much unknown.

2. Not particularly.

3. He's CEO, but not COO. And, I'd think so.

Hey Greg Why are you trying Kid Flash with Artemis since we all know who she really is it more likey end up with Icicle Jr?

Greg responds...

You seem to be assuming that what took place in the main DCU is a lock for Earth-16. And that's just not so. Heck, it doesn't even seem to be the case for the new 52 Universe.

and another comment about "misplaced". that scene where zatanna/nabu says "no" to zatara's request to release her... it's been a long time since any animated show has made me go "wow". who storyboarded that shot of her? it was perfect from the tilt of her head to her stone cold eyes.

Greg responds...

There's just no way for me to remember specifically, I'm afraid. But the credited board artists for 119 were: Charles E. Drost, III, Paul Harmon and Jeff Johnson, and the credited revisionist was Owen Sullivan. Throw in director MIchael Chang and Producer Brandon Vietti, and the odds are that one of those six talented people (plus the animators) gave you your "wow"!

1. In Homefront how did Kid Flash and Superboy get encased in metal?
2. How long has Wonder Woman been active as a heroine?
3. Could you give a translation of the spell Kent Nelson used to protect Kid Flash from Klarion?
4. Are the designations of the Light based on the order they joined?

Greg responds...

1. Molten metal, i.e. Superboy's motorcycle, heated by Red Inferno and rapidly cooled by Red Torpedo.

2. ASKED AND ANSWERED.

3. "Certe toto sentio nos in kansate non iam adesse!" I don't have the exact translation from the Latin here with me, but it's more or less along the lines of "Toto, I've a feeling we're not in Kansas any more."

4. Yes.

Zachary Bishop writes...

Do you know why the scene in "Misplaced" where two hoodlums are spray painting on the school, and are stopped by Miss Martian were cut from the broadcast version of the episode, but included in the digital releases, such as iTunes?

Greg responds...

Length issues. We had to trim time from a handful of episodes that originally posted BEFORE we had an official length for DC Nation (which is shorter in order to make room for the shorts).
