What is the longest living Martian animal and how many years does it live ?
I dunno.
Why did the justice league not tell USA government about the group known as THE LIGHT By 2011 ?
Well, the League works with the U.N., not the U.S., but what makes you think they didn't?
Why and when did MARIE Logan learn of Miss MARTIAN's white martian form ? What was Marie Logan's opinion of Miss MARTIAN WHITE Martian form ?
Not confirming or denying the premise of this question.
Why did Miss Martian trust Marie Logan and GARFIELD Logan with her real name as M'gann ?
Given everything that happened the day they met, that was hardly a big secret.
How soon after Garfield started to shape shifting into animals did he start to shape shift into the human-monkey form he is in during young justice invasion ?
Again, I'm not inclined to tell stories here - or circumvent the telling of stories by spoiling things here.
THIS are Sergeant and Lieutenant Marvel questions What year did they leave the team ? Why did they leave the team ? How did the two Marvels get their powers ? How did they join the team ? Why did they join the team ?
All stories I'd like to tell some day.
How did the young justice Megan Morse{M'GANN} get money to pay for her shopping ?
At what stage of the series?
What year did Malcolm begin working for the team ? How Malcolm did find out the team ?
That's a story I'd like to tell some day.
Hey, I'm a big fan of your shows and I was wondering how in-depth you get with certain things regarding timelines, especially in Young Justice. So:
1. For fictional cities - Metropolis, Gotham, etc. - do you have a general outline of the city's history planned out? Or would you only come up/research that kind of stuff if the story needed it? Do you use the same way of thinking when dealing with fictional countries, like Bialya or Qurac?
2. How do you come up with the ages of certain characters? For example, was there a specific reason you and the others working on the show decided to have Dick be 13 in Season One, while Miss Martian and Superboy (who, in the comics, are usually younger, around Tim's age) are 16? (Not that I'm complaining! I really like the change up, and it definitely works for the show, I'm just curious about what made you want Dick to be the youngest on the Team at that point.) Did it just feel right? Or did you base it off Bruce's age? Or vice-versa? (Sorry if this is confusing you. Basically, which elements dictate what the age of a character should be?)
3. For characters like Wonder Woman, Ra's al Ghul, Vandal Savage, Klarion, etc., I know you keep relative track of how long they've been alive, but do you also keep track of what age they are biologically? Rather than chronologically?
4. Are there any real-life incidents that didn't happen on Earth-16? I know you said that 9/11, the World Wars, etc. have happened, but was there any big time incident that didn't? For example: the Titanic, or the Columbine Shooting, or the 2011 Japan earthquake.
5. Not really a question, just me thanking you for you and the Young Justice crew for all your hard work! And thank you personally for keeping up with and adding more of your guys' amazing ideas to your timeline, because, honestly, in my opinion, timelines - especially deciphering them with every little bit of info - is really fun for me.
1a. No.
1b. Exactly.
1c. Yep.
The only exception is Star City, where I have a little more background info, because I developed my thinking on Star City based on a number of proposals for never-made comic book series that I pitched to DC in the mid 1980s, including the almost-made BLACK CANARY mini-series, a STAR CITY proposal, and a proposal for a new SUPERGIRL character unrelated to Kara Zor-El (during a period when John Byrne didn't want a Kryptonian Supergirl but DC wanted to maintain the trademark name - before Byrne solved the problem himself by creating the Matrix-Supergirl).
2. It mostly just felt right for the show we were developing. A young Dick with the most experience was an important element to the character and the character dynamics of our first season. Generally, I try to make each new character as young as I think I can get away with, given the needs of character and story. This is because we know that, unlike a typical comic book, we're going to let every character move/age through time, so the younger they are when they start, the younger they get to stay (relatively) as our seasons progress.
3. Yes.
4. As far as I know, everything real world also happened on Earth-16. EXCEPT for the 2019-2020-2021 COVID pandemic. Because it began too late for us to incorporate it into Season Four, in my head, the COVID-19 pandemic started exactly one year later on Earth-16 than it did here on Earth-Prime.
5. Thanks for your kind words. We do try our best!
IN 2010 when M'gann came to earth did she plan to live the rest of her life on earth ?
To the extent she was planning anything, yes.
What Megan Morse do for fun during summer vacation
in 2011 ?
Fun stuff.
When M'gann begin attending Happy Harbor School as Megan Morse what did the information on her say where she was born at and when she was born and were did the information say were she lived at and who was her legal guardian in the school records ?
It said everything it needed to say to convince school officials that she was just a normal teenage girl.
Hello Greg,
Regarding Young Justice:
1-Who gets to name the episodes? You, Brandon or the script writer?
2-Is it a team effort?
3-What's the general process? And what exceptions have been made?
1. It's a mix of the three of us.
2. Yes.
3. It's changed over the years. It used to be more me pushing for one-word titles unless someone had a really good idea that superseded that. During Season Three, because we knew what letter had to start each title, and because we had arcs within the series that each - in theory - had their own title scheme, it was more about the three of us, i.e. myself, Brandon and the writer of the individual script, coming up with the best title of any length that (a) had resonance for the episode, (b) began with the correct letter of the alphabet, and (c) fit the title scheme for the individual three or four episode arc that the episode was part of.
Regarding martians, i see in this unniverse martians are alive and well... i'm curious what are their numbers, thousands? millions? billions?
Uh... I'm not really sure. I'd guess... Millions?
I know Paula kicked Sportsmaster out of the house, but are they divorced? If not, how come?
I'd say by now they are.
Hello Greg, I love the show more than any other TV show in the last 30 years! I wanted to ask since we have an uncertainty in the DC wiki discussion boards about Black Manta's nationality. Some users claim that Black Manta is American and all of his crew members as well. We know that it was established in New Earth continuity that he was from Baltimore and his name was David. What is the case for Earth-16?
He's American. But I'm not confirming or denying his exact place of birth or name at this time.
His crew is exclusively Black, but not necessarily exclusively American.
Did Noor Harjavti know who Marie Logan was ?
When?
In young justice does Artemis own and where a baseball cap like her big sister jade does?
Sometimes, I suppose. It's not a regular style choice for her.
Hello again, and good day.
1.) That was indeed during the New 52, though it was late into that era, in 2015, when Duke and the "We Are Robin" crew came into the picture in prominence. Of note, Duke 'was' a Robin, albeit somewhat unorthodoxically so (though as generally proud of being as any of the '4' Robins) and for a relatively brief period during that time frame about a year before Rebirth.
2.) If you find time in your busy schedule, even if just for research (though I would hope for pleasure), I do recommend the "Endgame", "We Are Robin", "Robin War", and "Superheavy" series of books that features the character, among others things and events. Good reads all around.
As always, thank you for your time!
1. I'm sure you're referring to some previous exchange, but it's been so long - my bad - I don't recall what we were talking about. Basically, I know (and generally like) Duke as The Signal, post ReBirth.
2. I'm way behind on all my DC Comics reading, just trying to keep up.
Well, this is more of a thank you for Young Justice, I am SUPER stoked it's coming back, it is a really amazing program and helped me through some tough times when I was a teen, and I remember thinking, "things might be bad, but at least I don't have to save the world as well". And now, I'm enlisting into the US Army as a combat engineer and am thrilled to be starting a new chapter in my life. The excitement of Young Justice will definitely motivate me through Basic. And thanks again for this show.
Wow. Thank YOU for your service! Glad we could be part of your life!
Mr. Greg Weisman. I just wanna say that I loved spectacular spiderman, gargoyles (as a very young kid) and young justice. Spectacular and young justice have become my favorite cartoons of all time! You sir are awesome and so are your shows
Thank you so much for your kind words. I'm thrilled you like our stuff!
Why did Batman have that unhappy look on his face when he learn from Martian Manhunter that Miss Martian was born 48 earth years old in Young Justice episode Agendas ?
I don't think he was unhappy about Miss Martian's age, if that's what you mean. He knew that already.
I was surprised that this wasn't asked already, but maybe I missed it going through the archives. Was Batman seriously completely unaware that aqualad was a double agent, given that he taught nightwing how to strategize, and was the world's greatest detective? And if he did know, did he support the idea, or help come up with it in any way? Also, did he know black manta was aqualads father bbefore aquaman told him?
1. He didn't know. And being the World's Greatest Detective doesn't make one omniscient. How boring would he be if he were?
2. Maybe. Haven't thought about it.
Did zatanna go to school at happy harbor high after her dad became doctor fate, or did batman send her to gotham academy
Neither, initially. She finished her semester at the Catholic school in New York that she had been attending. It was just a zeta-tube ride away.
Why did Megan Morse who is in realty Miss Martian choose to study for a college degree since she can live for at least a another two hundred more years ?
She values education. What does her lifespan have to do with that?
How did THE villain Queen Bee know the team was at the Logan family home in episode image after Miss Martian use Queen Bee's form in episode Image ?
Intel from her army.
Dear Mr. Wiesman,
You once responded to a question with: Relative to a normal human, yes. Less than a Kryptonian or an Atlantean or an Amazon, but more than a typical human. Of course, it also depends on what form him or her is in and thus the current level of his or her density."
This was a question about Martian super strength.
1. You already stated that atlanteans have super strength ranging from "undetected" to Aquaman level strength (I'm assuming the word undetectable is what was intended for that statement). So my question is can the same be said for the Amazons or is Wonder Woman the only Amazon with super strength do to her unique origin?
I'm only asking because it varies from story to story and the way you said it suggests that all Amazons have some degree of super strength. However it also seemingly suggest that all Atlanteans have some degree of super strength too and Atlanteans with "undetected" (I'm assuming the word undetectable was intended) are basically at surface dwelling human level.
I think all Amazons are probably a bit stronger than the typical human, but mostly due to training and maybe a bit from the Purple Ray. They're not all as strong as Diana or Troia or Cassie.
Is Queen Miras's magic on the level of wotan? or Zatanna? Or pre Docotor Fate Zatara? Or is she weaker than all three
I'm not big on ranking. But she's incredibly powerful.
What was M'gann's age when she first started watching earth tv shows on mars sent to mars by martian manhunter ?
Pretty young. I first started in utero.
Did Garfield Logan attend a church after his mom died before he lived at the cave since he is a Christian ?
I don't think so. He seems pretty secular to me.
How tall can Miss Martian make herself using her shapeshifting power?
Very. Changing her volume is fairly easy. She cannot change her mass.
What was Marie Logan's height in episode Image ?
I don't know. I don't know anyone's height. I just have a notion of how tall they are relative to each other.
In the Haly's circus YJ episode, was parasite working independently? Would his stolen heat vision and flight go away when superboy used up the shield he had been wearing? And did robin get in trouble for the mission, or did batman not find out.
1. As he stated, he was working with Intergang.
2. All of Parasite's stolen powers fade away eventually.
3. Batman found out. You can judge how much trouble Robin got in by measuring Batman's reactions to the rest of the Team's missions.
After episode IMAGE did M'gann tell her uncle about meting Garfield and his mother witch was the woman miss martian base her human form on ?
Eventually. But he also had more awareness of her situation prior to that.
What is the lifespan of members of Halkman and halkwoman race ?
Right now, I'm assuming that the Thanagarian lifespan is more or less the same as a human's.
In the comics Miss Martian gave her story as to how she got to earth, part of which we know was a lie. Later speedy said that she stowed away on manhunters ship. Is speedy completely right, or is what actually happened something between the two stories? And if speedy is right, how did he find out/know?
Red Arrow was basically right. And he got the truth from Manhunter.
Will the complete young justice timeline be revel if all future seasons of the young justice you Mister Greg plan for the show to have are produce ?
Never. Cuz we'll never run out of ideas for future seasons, and the timeline is constantly growing. Right now it's 694 pages on my desktop computer and 609 pages on my laptop. (I have no explanation for the discrepancy. It's the exact same document. My desktop is much older than my laptop.)
Is David Hyde the real name of Black Manta in the Young Justice cartoon...?
No spoilers.
When did M'gann started to view or treat Garfield as a brother ?
Pretty rapidly after Image.
Hi Greg! I'm a HUGE fan of YJ (Congrats on Season Three, sorry if we bothered you too much about it!). I have two questions, but I'm only really expecting one answer.
1- Does Wally West have ADHD? He has a few signs of it (obvious hyperactivity, hyperfocusing on science, often acting immature, sometimes not understanding things, being very impulsive, etc) and I see at lot of myself in him as a person with ADHD.
1. I'm not qualified to make that diagnosis. But I'm not against the notion.
2. What was the second question?
Hi Greg! I'm so excited for Season 3, can't wait to see what you create!
I've got two questions for you:
1) For how long had the original team known Robin I/Nightwing's secret identity as Dick Grayson by the time Season 2 started?
2) Did Roy know Robin's secret identity in Season 1?
Thanks and good luck with production!
1. I'm not going to lock down an exact date in this forum until we've made a decision in a story.
2. No. Just Wally.
What was Garfield Logan's A designation ? Garfield's B designation was B19.
He never had an A designation.
Why does Beast Boy in season two have miss Martian's mount justice bedroom she had in season one ? If she gave it to him when he move into the cave then question is why ?
It's a different room. Many of the rooms have a similar layout.
How soon after hello megan started airing in 1979 did M'gann started shapeshifting into megan morse form ?
Soon after she saw it. Though as I've stated, her proficiency in the form got better over time.
Random question: you've discussed religious affiliations of a few characters in the past right? I was wondering: of the original team, (Dick, Wally, Kaldur, Conner, M'Gann) how many believe in God? Of those who do, what are their religions? Thanks!
Dick is maybe agnostic?
Wally probably believes in God. He comes from some kind of Christian background. Maybe Methodist.
Conner is probably an Atheist.
Kaldur and M'gann believes in gods (plural).
After Garfield's eyes turn green did his hair turn green next or did his skin turn green next ?
I'm gonna say... hair next. But I reserve the right to change my mind if later Brandon and I decide to go another route.
Lately I've been thinking of a villain trope that is decades (if not centuries) old. The maniacal laugh or the evil laugh. When used properly, I love it. When not, it can be hammy, over the top, and out of character.
Several of the villains you've written over the years have used it, and many haven't.
Off the top of my head, Thailog comes to mind first. And I wouldn't want Thailog without it. Granted, I sometimes wonder where he picked it up. It definitely wasn't from Xanatos. And while Sevarius might be hammy, I don't recall him doing it.
Hyena also has a maniacal laugh, and given her name (and personality) it definitely suits her.
The Archmage had a maniacal laugh.
Demona laughed maniacally three or four times. But it's not a trait we normally associate with her.
And let us not forget the Green Goblin in "Spectacular Spider-Man". I think he was the only villain on the show to have one. Likewise, I recall Nerissa doing it on "W.I.T.C.H." at least once.
The Joker aside, I do not recall any of the villains on "Young Justice" doing it. Any of them. Maybe I'm misremembering, it's been a while since I watched through the show, but I am struggling to remember and coming up blank.
Which leads to me to ask. Is the maniacal laugh a dated relic? Especially as we expect supervillains to be more sophisticated in our dramatic fiction, superhero or otherwise.
For example, in "Transformers", the classic Megatron used to laugh maniacally all the time. All the time. More modern takes on Megatron have done away with the maniacal laugh.
I love it, don't get me wrong, but should villains still be doing it. If we ever get more "Gargoyles", I definitely want Thailog to continue doing it. But, had Thailog made his debut in the year 2017, would I still want him doing it?
You have gotten the chance to create your own great supervillains as well as write many of the classic and iconic supervillains. Right now, what are your thoughts on the villainous laugh?
I haven't exactly studied this issue.
I use it when it feels right in terms of character and situation. Obviously, some characters have more of a sense of humor about what they do than others.
Not all villainous laughs qualify as "maniacal" in my book either.
I would never outlaw the practice, but I think I do use it sparingly, both to avoid silliness and to make it special if and when we do use it.
1. Does magical "affinity" in Young Justice mean that your body can better handle the strain of the mystic energy being channeled through it?
2. If that's the case then does that explain why Giovanni and Zatanna can cast spells without a conduit? Because they have such a high/strong magical affinity?
1. Among other things.
2. Didn't you JUST ask this question. Why are you asking it again?
What's the name of Icon's alien species?
No Spoilers.
Dear Mr. Weisman,
I am a fan of your work who frequents this forum and has studied your work thoroughly. I was looking for information to further my understanding and therefore enjoyment of your work on Young Justice. I tried to find the answer to this question but I could not find any response. I am really, really not trying to nit-pick here but this is something that has been bothering me for a while now.
You were once asked "Do you regard Young Justice's magic as following the same "rules" as Gargoyles's, or did you right it differently?" your very cool response was " More or less." In the Gargoyle series it was necessary for human sorcerer to use a "conduit" in order to generate or summon the mystic energy necessary for casting spells. In contrast The Third Race, who were magical beings, could generate mystic energy of their own, but not without limit.
I understand that Klarion and Dr. Fate are magical beings, that can channel mystic energy from another plane of existence into our world through a physical "anchor." Wotan, Felix Faust, and Blackbriar Thorn are all sorcerers that have lived long enough to figure out a way to general/summon/channel mystic energy without to much trouble and the Atlanteans summon/generate mystic energy via their mystic skin icons that also assist in channeling these energies.
1. My question is how is it that the Zatara family members, Giovanni and his daughter Zatanna, are able to summon mystic energy without the use of a conduit? Wizard used a magic wand and Giovanni used a wand on several occasions is season one but Zatanna is constantly casting spells seemingly with words alone.
2. Are they using a conduit we cannot see?
3. Are they somehow magical in nature?
4. Are they somehow just so talented and physically strong that they are able to endure the bodily strain of conducting mystic energy through themselves without a conduit like The Magus did on Avalon? I would think that that would be extremely exhausting even considering they're younger than The Magus was at the time of his death.
5. Could you please explain magical "affinity?" At this point I am running off of the assumption that it means natural-born talent for magic.
I just want to know what's happening. I'm sorry if the magical beings question counts as a spoiler, but I think it is valid in this case.
1. He's using the words as his conduit.
2. Yes. But you can hear it.
3. Watch Season Four.
4. See above.
5. Largely, yes.
