Is it true that Linda Parks name is written on a list somewhere in one of season one's episodes?
Does this rumor even exist, or are you starting it here and now?
1.-Is there a version of you on earth 16
2.-Is there a an alternate version of every one in real life on earth 16?
2b Is there a version of me on earth 16?
3.-Is there a version of marvel comics (as a coomic book company) on earth 16?
1. <sigh> I suppose.
2. Not EVERYone.
2b. I don't have a complete list handy.
3. Coomics are very popular on Earth-16.
Would anyone like to see Young Justice win a People's Choice Award?

Does being Nabu's host prevent someone from sending or recieving thoughts via telepathic link? For example, if Martian Manhunter linked up the Justice League, would Zatara be able to talk to Dr.Fate's teammates?
Honestly, not sure.
Hola Greg,
Alright I went through the archives and I didn't see this question (sorry if I missed it/or if it's a Spoiler request but I don't think so)
1. On Earth 16, does the whole concept of "if an Amazon is bound to a man, she loses her powers" still true?
2. In the comics there's various versions as to why Amazons wear the cuffs/silver bracelets, why do Amazons wear them on Earth 16 (besides using them to dodge bullets and what not...I mean does it have to do with a reminder to be enslaved...or something of the like?)
(sorry if these are questions asked but not responded to but there's over a 1000 of those...and I just finished going through over 200 related Wondy posts...)
1. SPOILER REQUEST. NO COMMENT.
2. DITTO.
Hi Greg,
I've finally hunted you down,im a 30 year old weight trainning coach from Manchester England uk and i wanted to say that Young Justice is'nt just a great show it's the best show (animated or not). ALSO ....
Hope you don't pay any attention to all the "where is K.F" and "we dont like the chances in the show comments" Young Justice is the cleverest show i've ever seen i love how your twenty steps ahead of the audicence.
My question is ..... Where do you come up with Robin's fantastic quotes like "feeling the Aster" (oppisite to disaster) "whelmed" and "well get taught" oppiste to distaught)
Thank You
Neil Cailey

I came up with "whelmed". It's something that's always made me wonder. After that, a number of folks contributed, including our writing staff and even my wife and kids. Try it. It's fun.
In Season 1's "Infiltrator", I noticed that Miss Martian's eyes glowed red while she lifted Kid Flash out of the pool. So far in Season 2, her eyes are glowing green whenever she uses her powers.
My questions:
1) Does a red glow mean telepathic inexperience?
2) Can her teammates see the colour of the eye glow as well? Or is it used to tell the audience that she's using her powers?
1. Um... maybe.
2. Yes, they can.
Is Klarion literally Chaos given form, or is he like Dr. Fate in that he's just a host?
He's a Lord of Chaos. But not the only one. But, yes, he is Chaos personified.
The Justice League in the comics seemed more like an American organization while the Justice League you presented in Young Justice is an International organization with U.N. approval that operates all over the world. I like this version of the Justice League, but I wonder why all the members are based in United States.
1. Sure, Wonder Woman is from the Amazons, Superman is from Krypton, Martian Man Hunter is from Mars, Hawkman and Hawkwoman are from God-knows-where, but they are all based in America. Why aren't there any African, European, South American or Asian heroes in the supposedly international Justice League?
2. In a world where there are so many ways to become a superhero, how come China, Russia, Japan, India, Spain, Italy, Egypt and others haven't had superheroes who could join the Justice League? And how come the U.N. accepted them so easily knowing they were ALL American heroes? Having American citizens serving as worldwide policemen must be uncomfortable for most countries.
3. Also, there are a lot of evil villains with different countries of origin that have appeared on the show like Count Vertigo, Vandal Savage, Bane, Ra's Al Ghul and Queen Bee, but you haven't presented any superhero from any other country at all. Why is that? And even if there were one, why isn't there more?
4. One final question concerning the same issue. Why did the Green Lantern Corps choose three American citizens to defend Earth? I'm not trying to disrespect John Stewart, Kyle Rayner and Hal Jordan, but there certainly has to be a lot of willful and heroic people across the globe that could do wonders with a Green Lantern ring. Why these three? And why all from USA?
Thank you for giving the time to answer these questions and many others! Love the site. Thanks.
1. Okay, I think this is simultaneously a legit question and a bit of a specious one. To some extent, you know the answer already. We weren't going to ditch out on the greatest heroes of the DC Universe simply because they're all based in the U.S. (Though if I wanted to nitpick, I could say that Aquaman absolutely is not, and that we haven't established where the Hawks are based on Earth or whether Wonder Woman is currently based in the U.S. or elsewhere.) I'm not saying that DC doesn't have international heroes to choose from, but they aren't the classic ones that we were using to create a pantheon in contrast to our teens. As the series progresses (especially given enough episodes and/or issues), we'll be introducing more heroes from across the globe. As for an in-Universe answer, let's just say that the League was formed by seven American base heroes who came together to face an alien threat on American soil. Currently, America is where most of the heroes live. Just as America is (or at least until very recently was) where most baseball, basketball and (American) football players live. These things spread, but not overnight. And, all things considered - source material, especially - I think our series is more diverse than most.
2a. See the answer(s) to question 1.
2b. Who said they accepted them easily?
3. See above.
4. We haven't seen Kyle on this series. Only Hal, John and Guy. But keep in mind, the Corps didn't pick the Lanterns. The RINGS chose the Lanterns. And proximity was absolutely a factor.
Just one question: Why does Bane's pupils dilate when he uses Venom in Drop-Zone, and constrict when he uses it in Usual Suspects? I imagine that the venom formula has changed in the intervening period (because his eyes go bloodshot in Usual Suspect, which doesn't happen in Drop-Zone), but having completely opposite reactions is fairly odd for a chemical that's supposed to have a consistent effect. Was this just a goof or is there a reason for it?
Anyway, just something I noticed. Great job on the series; I'm a constant viewer and a definite fan. Thanks for bringing us such a high quality superhero show!
1. Less of a goof than an inconsistency - assuming your describing it accurately, as I haven't checked myself. But if you want an in-Universe explanation, let's assume you were seeing two different moments in the overall transformation process.
Dear Greg.
I am a big fan of your work, in particular Gargoyles, Spectacular Spider-Man and Young Justice, and as an aspiring writer, your technique of plotting, use of foreshadowing and Chekov's Guns are a big influence on me.
Here are a couple of questions:
1. What is your approach to plotting a series?
2. And who are your influences as a writer?
To end this off, I would like to thank you for all of your excellent work in every field you have participated in, and I hope to see further projects from you in the future.
Joe
Both these questions have been ASKED and ANSWERED many times before. Check out the ASK GREG archives.
But thank you for the kind words.
Greg, DC should let you do a Justice League series based on the New 52. I like the way you write and have a healthy respect for all characters and development of them feels more authentic than anything I saw even in the JL/U series. You don't dumb anything down and treat your audience as intelligent by challenging us to think/react. Thank you for such a great show as Young Justice.
You're welcome.
Hi Greg!
Thanks for the amazing work on YJ! I was never even into comics before, but after watching episodes with my little brother, I have to admit I'm hooked. So thanks :)
Anyway, just one question: You guys were permitted to continue with Season 2 : Invasion around the beginning of Season 1 I think. So if you hadn't been allowed a Season 2, would Season 1 with a different, finite ending? And once you were granted with S2, did you have to change a lot of plans?
Thanks so much for your time, I can't wait to watch the next episode!
Nothing would have changed. The plan was the plan.
1) How many issues of the Young Justice companion comic will there be? Is it an ongoing, or is there an issue cap?
2) How many issues plots have you got laid out already? (I won't ask you what they are, I'm just curious how far ahead they've been planned.)
Thanks!
1. It's ongoing, I assume as long as sales hold.
2. I've JUST finished writing the script for issue #25. Turned it in early this morning. I haven't started on 26 yet, though I have many, many, many story ideas to chose from.
Three questions
1. Does Jaime want to be a dentist?(it's his comic dream job)
2.Since it looks like Jade knew Roy2 was a clone was the flirting just to annoy-a him,b-Artemis,or c-both?
3.Could Red Arrow and Superboy be considred 'brothers' since they were both cloned by the same orginization?
1. SPOILER REQUEST. NO COMMENT.
2. C doesn't cover it.
3. By Dubbilex's definition, yes.
Why is Rocket in the Justice League in YJ: Invasion? The conversation between her and Icon in the Season One episode "Usual Suspects" suggested/implied that she was going to stay on The Team.
Yes, five years ago - at age 15, she was quite happy on the Team. Five years later, at age 20, she was offered a spot in the League and took it. These two things are not incompatible.
If Superman was at age 33 when Young Justice started (at 2010), and he officially started his superhero career at age 21, that mean he was born in 1977 on Krypton, correct? Also, assuming this occurred before his superhero career officially started, when did Clark Kent finally found out (or at least, accepted) the truth about his origins?
On your assumptions: He landed in Kansas in 1978 and to all appearances seemed to be a one-year-old. I won't confirm or deny the year of his actual birth.
As for your question: SPOILER REQUEST. NO COMMENT.
What was the conversation between Superman, Wonder Woman and Martian Manhunter toward the end of episode 2?
I'll leave that to your imagination.
1. Out of curiosity; if you had to choose out of all ALL the characters who are parents in this show who would win "absolutely worst parent of the year award" in Young Justice?
2. How bad was this parent, Green Goblin bad, Firelord Ozai bad, Fourth kazekage bad or Gendo Ikari bad?
3. Regarding each characters past, a) was there reasons you decided to modify the pasts to make them harsher and realistic or was it a more of story point necessity? b)Out of all of them, who would you consider the most dramatizing?
1. I'll leave that to you.
2. I don't know who those last three are.
3a. Who are we talking about?
3b. "Dramatizing?"
Hi There Greg!!
Here is my question.
I'm guessing that the reason why you guys put WW's age into the 80s was to emphasize
the fact that she's immortal, which was a great move.
I know that Superman is in his 30s on your show, but i've read and seen in multiple portrayals of Superman (like Kingdom Come, DCAU), that while he's not immortal, he has a much, much longer lifespan than normal humans.
Was the reason why you chose not to give him a advanced age, was to emphasize the fact
that inside, he's more human than alien?
I'm not confirming or denying that Superman has a longer lifespan. Nor am I confirming or denying that Wonder Woman is immortal.
In any case, your premise regarding Wonder Woman is incorrect. She's older because she first came to "Man's World" during World War II.
Why did cameron's dad frezze himself?
Huh? When did he do that?
Thanks for all the work you and your colleagues put into such a great series!
I was curious if this universe has a system for dealing with the property damage that comes with the existence super powered heroes and villains, it's always something I end up thinking about watching animated series.
In terms of..
a. Is the league expected to help the general public repair neighborhoods and cities?
b. Is money privately and publically budgeted for expected damages in high risk cities? (The typical home areas of all the different heroes.)
c. Has it ever become an image/PR problem for the league? Or does the status quo put lives before property and accept it as an inconvenience/blame the bad guys?
Very excited to see where Invasion is going. :) Unexpected but interesting twist.
a. "Expected"? That depends on who we're talking about. But I think they do help when they can.
b. Perhaps.
c. Mostly the latter, but things ebb and flow.
I have the feeling there are entire industries on Earth-16 (insurance, certainly) dedicated to this stuff. In fact, I'll make up one such on the spot: LexSure, a division of LexCorp.
Based on Beast Boy's flashback in "Earthlings," I suspect that Queen Bee killed Marie Logan (and presumably tried to kill Garfield as well) as revenge for Miss Martian's deceptive actions in "Usual Suspects." Why wasn't Marie Logan and her son put into protective custody in order to avoid further danger from Queen Bee?
I'm not going to confirm or deny your hypotheses.
But as for the lack of 'protective custody', it was a combination of M'gann's naivete and Marie's stubborn desire to stay put and run her sanctuary.
Hello Greg Weisman, thank you for this interesting opportunity. I'm a big fan of Young Justice and it's great to see another great DC show around. I'm sorry to say this is the first show by you that I've watched (I should fix that). Snappy writing, fun undercurrent of mystery, and from what I understand is a staple of your shows, not assuming your fans are incapable of following an ongoing plot line.
I love the fight scenes in the show. Very fluid animation; and I enjoy in particular when the "normals" get to cut loose and drop some martial arts on each other. I also find it fun when Superboy gets to utterly wail on people.
Anyways, I have a question that has been plaguing me in recent years. I'm not sure if the answer varies from show to show but here it is. How much say do the writers get in the crafting of the action scenes? Do you guys lay down some guidelines for what must happen in a fight or do you ultimately leave it up to the animators and/or artists?
Well, there's my question that quickly devolved into a multi-question, I'm sorry. But, please, keep the awesome coming man! I hope this show keeps on keepin' on! Six seasons and a movie!
Every series is different. On YJ - and most of the shows I've produced - I make sure that the script spells out the action in real detail - in part to attempt to assure that we're not winding up with an episode that's too long or too short. Having said that, I then am happy to have our board artists, directors and my fellow producer (on YJ that's Brandon Vietti) go to town and PLUS the action and visuals. But I do get approvals on all this to make sure we're staying on point with our story and not doing stuff that's out of character or off-tone for our series. Then you have the timers and, of course, the animators contributing too.
So this Beast Boy's powers are derived from the martian blood in his body and not THE RED-(the energy cast off by animals)?
and regarding the transfusion would that make Gar 1/16 martian or something?
1. SPOILER REQUEST. NO COMMENT.
2. I don't know how to answer this. It seems like an exercise in semantics.
