Hey Greg,

Really liked the Young Justice pilot, very solid stuff. I especially like the line Robin had about how Batman would "have his head" for taking so long to get out of those shackles. Robin seemed pretty capable, and I'm sure he'll get closer to Batman's level as time goes on, but I do hope we'll get to see the master at work every once in a while.

I also really have to say that I loved the action sequences (and the writing, of course). They had a great flow to them and a great sense of pace. I was also a bit surprised at how hard hitting some of the fights were, by which I mean they seemed to be fairly violent, even compared to something as recent as SpecSpidey, though that's just my take on it.

So anyway, you say that your brother, Jon Weisman, is writing for Young Justice, which got me thinking about how that was also the case during your time on WITCH. Since someone was nice enough to upload the entire series onto YouTube it has been easy enough to go back to. One of my favorites of that show was "S for Self", mainly because of the songs "Demon in Me" and "Will to Love" that played during it, for which you and Jon wrote the lyrics.

So this is a bit out there, but do you suppose that original songs, like those produced for WITCH, are something that would ever have a place in Young Justice?

How about an entire episode in the form of a musical? Buffy style, you know you want to.

Greg responds...

I do want to. But I'm not sure I'm smart enough to come up with an original reason for it to happen -- that WORKS with the tone of this show. Way back when, I wanted to do a musical episode of Gargoyles, but could never come up with a justification. Then Joss Whedon did "Once More With Feeling". And of course, the answer was obvious. I could have used Puck to force everyone to sing. Trouble is... I wasn't smart enough to figure that out first. Yes, that's right. Joss Whedon is smarter than I am. Now, taking that approach would REALLY look like I was ripping off his idea. I'm not 100% sure I'm above that. But I'm about 87% sure, so...

Even on Spidey, which was a show with a way less realistic and grounded tone than YJ is, I struggled to find an original reason to do a musical episode. And I couldn't figure one out. So the odds of me figuring one out on Young Justice seem slim, I'm afraid.

1) Aqualad appears to have a measure of super strength, is he also bullet proof?

2) Is Mount Justice suppose to be Happy Harbor like in the comic?

Greg responds...

1. No.

2. Yes.

thanks for the trailers... looks insane.
this question may seem spoiled and a little greedy/impatient. But, i gotta ask. I remember hearing about a tempest apearence. Would his presence on the show be similar o red arrow's (multiple episodes supporting character) or can we expect to see him in a one shot atlantis aqualad episode?

keep up the great adapting. when i saw the designs and details from NYCC it felt like bruce timm on steroids.

Greg responds...

No comment.

Will Jason Marsden and Will Friedle reprise their roles from Batman: Brave and the Bold onto Young Justice (I understand Speedy has already been taken) or do I have to wait and see?
They did a very perfect job at voicing those lesser known DC characters from that show and they really deserved to voice them again in future DC cartoons and movies.

Greg responds...

I don't know who Jason and Will played in B&TB...?

Hey Greg, I love your work and I am excited for Young Justice, but I do have a just one small concern.

Looking back at episodes of "Justice League" and “Justice League Unlimited” it's pretty clear to see how writers have diminished the character of Superman by making him ether less superior then the rest of the League or by just turning him into the little “whipping boy” just to show how bad things were getting. Will this trend continue in Young Justice?

I apologize if this question has been answered before; I scrolled through the archives and didn’t see it.

Greg responds...

I'm not at all sure that I agree with your assessment of Superman in Justice League/JLU. So how can I respond to whether or not I'm going to continue a trend that I don't think exists?

So how about we leave it until you see how we execute things in the series, allowing you to judge for yourself.

I noticed that in some San Diego Comic-Con preview footage, Aqualad had no armpit hair. Does he shave it off? Do other male heroes have it? Excuse mah weird questions o.O

Greg responds...

This is just not a question I'm interested in.

I saw a little interview on Robin that described him as "prepubescent." Does this mean we'll see him go through it on the show?

Greg responds...

He's not really pre-pubescent (and all that that implies). He just hasn't hit his growth spurt yet.

As for your question, I guess that would depend on how long we're on the air. Our first season takes place over a six month period (more or less). You're not going to see him grow much over a mere six months. Not that that's not possible for a thirteen year old. [My own thirteen year old son is now taller than me.]
