Greg responds...
Thank you!

Superboy And Megan Are Virgin ?
Greg responds...
Sigh. I'm really hoping that English is your second language, in which case, I know I should make allowances. (Cuz if it's not - and as a former English teacher - I find the sloppiness of this post truly annoying.)
Anyway, as of when?

Hi Greg,
Just wondering which heroes, besides the Zatara's, have lived/fought crime in New York City from Team Year Zero until "present day" on Earth 16?
Thanks for your time, you rock!
Greg responds...
I haven't broken everything down by city.

AQUAMAN Qs CONT...
Also, I'm not asking for any detailed spoilers or anything, but does AJ know any Atlantian magic?..I imagine with his parantage (father descended from the greatest sourcerers of the past & mother is the greatest of the present) he would show a prodigal talent for the art, even at 5 years old...
Greg responds...
Who's "AJ"?
J writes...
Yove mentioned before that the reason Aquaman doesn't have his "water-bolt" power is because he is not a sourcerer, and only Atlantian sourcerers have hard-water power...now in the comics, the only reason Aquaman can communicate with sealife is because he is a direct decendant of the most powerful Atlantian sourcerers...
My question is, how are these points reconciled on Earth-16? If his telepathy with sea-mamals is not the product of sourcery, why can only he do it (or am I assuming too much)?
And if it is the product of sourcery, even inately, wouldn't it be a simple task to learn such a minor technique as the "water-bolts"?
Greg responds...
You're assuming that there's some connection between telepathy and sorcery, and that's NOT something we've ever connected on Earth-16.
And nothing is SIMPLE when it comes to sorcery.

Why the Justice League keep the Watchtower a Secret?
Greg responds...
Perhaps so that it doesn't get attacked...
Zatanna Fan writes...
Dear Greg,
1)Now that Zatanna is more skilled with magic, is she on the same level as her father Zatara?
2)In episode "Misplaced" Zatanna used a wand to locate Klarion. What it her wand or her fathers?
Greg responds...
1. I'm not too interested in quantifying things. She's more proficient now than she was five years ago.
2. That wand. <grrrrrrr> I don't know what the heck the deal was with that wand. Maybe it helped her focus or something. But she doesn't need it.

the crimson avenger was a member of all star squadron
Greg responds...
Is this a question or a statement?
ThatGuy writes...
Why is superboy only a punching bag for a long time and seems to only hit opponents that cant fight back? Its very strange being how he is suppose to be a more powerful fighter.
Greg responds...
I'm not exactly sure what you're saying here.
Superboy, being the most powerful member of the Team, often takes on THE most powerful opponents. And, frankly, some of them flat-out outclass him. I don't think that makes him a punching bag. Though I do think he can take a punch that most of his Teammates cannot.
If what you're asking is, "Why didn't you make Superboy more powerful?" then I think I've basically answered that before. We did not want our heroes to be over-powered. I don't see what the fun is in that.

Hi Greg!
My questions are related to the Cave layout and refer to the Season One team/time period (especially given that now the Cave is no more - watching the Cave get destroyed in season 2 was truly tragic, by the way, though so beautifully executed).
During "Homefront", when Robin and Artemis are running from the Reds, they end up in what would appear to be the team's shower room. It's pretty huge, which leads me to wonder...
1) Is it a coed shower? (And if I'm mistaken and that wasn't the shower room, then IS there a coed shower room in the Cave?)
2) If so, do the boys and girls take turns (meaning the girls would shower and the boys would wait their turn, or vice versa)? Or are they all comfortable enough with each other that they just shower at the same time and are respectful enough not to stare?
3) If the boys and girls do shower simultaneously, do they wear swim attire (or something similar) when they do so?
I'm just genuinely interested in how you view this particular team dynamic. Growing up in a military family, I'm accustomed to different heads for each gender. However, after watching Battlestar Galactica (the newer series), I found it fascinating that the Galactica crew shared a coed shower room. And, from an economy standpoint, it would probably save a decent amount on space and resources. A very practical outlook, actually.
And I was just wondering what system the Team had in place for this sort of thing...
Anywho, thanks for taking the time to answer my questions and I can't wait to watch more of the brilliance that is YJ:I unfold.
Greg responds...
1. No. There's a men's shower and a women's shower.
2. Get real. These are teens in their full hormonal glory.
3. That seems like an extremely ineffective way to get clean.
anonymous writes...
Will we see Superboy with a different hairstyle in the series? I know, weird question, but I just love his hairstyle in Teen Titans (which is post pretty similar to Red Arrow's) and New 52 (reminds me a bit of Louis Tomlinson???)
Also, kudos for such an awesome show to the whole cast and crew!!!
Greg responds...
We will see Louis Tomlinson with a new hairstyle. A very large afro or maybe a mohawk.
Of course, I would have thought all this was obvious from watching the show. I mean, dude, note the timestamp.
J writes...
At what point in the Leauge's history did they fight Starro?
Is that when Snapper first met the Leauge on Earth-16?
Is Starro still alive inside of the block of ice?
Greg responds...
Snapper stood alone against Starro, with nothing to help him except his college beer refrigerator.
Of course, I would have thought all this was obvious from watching the show. I mean, dude, note the timestamp.
Reiena Grayson writes...
Alright, I searched the archives, and couldn't find my question.
I was thinking about Aquaman and some of his weaknesses, and this one I don't believe was ever mentioned. The whole one hour away from water thing, is it valid on Earth 16. It's just one thing that came to mind.
So, I can't wait for the first part of season 2 to hit DVD on the 22nd, and then Young Justice Legacy is out next month. These next two months are going to be so crash.
Greg responds...
On Earth-16, Aquaman can't be out of the water for longer than 30 minutes and 30 seconds. I mean, take any episode of the series. Start the clock and don't turn it off until the episode is over. You'll see he NEVER stays out of the water longer than 30 minutes - including commercials!!!
Of course, I would have thought all this was obvious from watching the show. I mean, dude, note the timestamp.

If Match was indicated to be the FIRST clone of Superman on Young Justice, and IF he is able to age (unlike Superboy), wouldn't that technically mean that he'd eventually be renamed as Bizarro, and then Match and Bizarro would be one and the same individual on Earth-16?
Greg responds...
Match went to one high school dance before he was frozen. There he met a clone of Lana Lang. They had a baby. That baby became Bizarro. However, Bizarro was recently offered a job on My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic, so he changed his name to Comet, the Wonder Horse.
Of course, I would have thought all this was obvious from watching the show. I mean, dude, note the timestamp.
J writes...
Since the Hawks' wings are real, are they still mamillian or are they primarily avian, or a mix of both?
If they are a mix, how much mamillian-to-avian would you say they are? 50\50? 70\30?
If the Hawks were to have a child, would Shayara give live birth or lay an egg?
Greg responds...
1. They're gargates.
2. As a professional biologist, myself, I can say with tremendous certainty that they are 20% Thanagarian, 15% Mammal, 84% avian, 11% Kryptonian and the remaining 4% is a mix of Latverian and Rhelasian.
3. Katar lays the eggs, of course.
Anyway, I would have thought all this was obvious from watching the show. I mean, dude, note the timestamp.
Anonymous writes...
Flaming C or Superman?
Greg responds...
Uh huh. I mean, neither. I mean, both. Or, uh, what's the question again.
Chris Lahm writes...
Who is taller, Superboy or Lagoon Boy? Or there the same height.
Greg responds...
Superboy is taller on land by about fifty feet - especially when leaping. But in the water, Lagoon Boy is taller due to the pressure. (When he's underwater, Superboy is reminded of being in a pod, which causes emotional pressure. So he slouches a lot.)
I would have thought that was obvious from watching the show. I mean, dude, note the timestamp.

As the comic #20 shows Artemis at least knows to Nightwing is- so have they laughed about the picture yet?
Greg responds...
I think my spellcheck has gone haywire. Oh, wait, no. It's YOURS.
Anyway, it's unfortunate, but all of Dick Grayson's digital photos were erased during the E.M.P. that Artemis set off in "Homefront". Plus, fans forbid us from allowing Dick to laugh anymore in Season Two. We received death threats.
I would have thought that was obvious from watching the show. I mean, dude, note the timestamp.
Anonymous writes...
So, weird question: in Homefront what kind of... Whatever was used to hold Superboy and Kid Flash? It kinda looked like ice, but ice is usually clear, and that seemed opaque. And if it was ice, then how come Superboy didn't just busy out? Ice is brittle. It shatters easily.
I don't know. Maybe it was metal that Red Inferno melted and then Red Torpedo cooled again so it stopped them quick, but they didn't show burns... please explain this.
Greg responds...
It wasn't ice. It was flubber.
I would have thought that was obvious from watching the show. I mean, dude, note the timestamp.
J writes...
Back when the Superboy clone was first introduced into the DCU, he was given a pair of "specs" by Prof. Emil Hamilton that granted him X-ray, telescopic, microscopic, & heat vision powers...would the Superboy of Earth-16 ever consider useing that kind of technology (if it were available)?
Or did he learn his lesson bout augmenting his powers after the patches?
Would this violate his "no tights" policy in some way?
I'm not asking, or even hoping that he will use the "specs", just asking if he would if given the oppirtunity.
Greg responds...
Professor Hamilton gave Superboy contact lenses that grant him all those powers. In fact, he gave Lucas Carr the same lenses.
I would have thought that was obvious from watching the show. I mean, dude, note the timestamp.

Dear Greg Weisman,
Firstly, thank you for taking the time to answer these questions. I actually prefer a "SPOILER REQUEST, NO COMMENT" to nothingness and apathy in general.
2ndly, thank you and the team for this show! Love the story-driven dynamic direction and constant emotional roller coaster that ensues with every episode.
Artemis and Wally: best relationship in the show/DC universe
Jade n CloneRoy: extremely close second
Miss M and Supey: Glad they broke up.
But enough fan-girling, my big questions actually regard the Flash family:
Did Barry Allen have any influence on Wally's (and Artemis') decision to leave the hero "life" behind?
Was Barry always a study science over speed kind of guy?
I may be wrong but didn't Barry disapprove of Wally gaining super speed powers in the beginning and is he happy that he's left the life?
Can Wally get "out of shape" speed-wise since hes at college and does that effect his acceleration or top-speed in any way?
That is all. Thank you for your time!
Greg responds...
1. Not directly, no.
2. Basically.
3. Barry wasn't looking for a sidekick and initially accepted Wally out of guilt when Wally nearly blew himself up getting his powers. But Barry came to appreciate Kid Flash with time. On the other hand, I'm sure he appreciated Wally and Artemis' decision.
4. I don't think he's let himself go but theoretically yes.
Candice writes...
Hi Greg, I love Young Justice and just had a couple questions about M'gann's family relationships:
1) Does she keep in touch with her family back on Mars?
2) Does she or Martian Manhunter go back to visit them on Mars?
3) Are they proud of what she's doing on Earth?
Greg responds...
1. No.
2. SPOILER RESPONSE.
3. Your question assumes they know.
Anonymous writes...
I absolutely love Young Justice and it inspired me to write an outline for an animated series.
Hopefully you can answer this but I was wondering since my idea involves dc comics characters, what steps do I need to take to try and get the idea out there? I'm assuming I'd have to get permission from dc comics first.
Greg responds...
Yes.
J writes...
You mentioned before that the main reason for the lack of women in the Leauge was primarily due to lack of source material, ie. not many female Leaugers to choose from...but what about Vixen, Gipsi, Dr. Light, Fire and Ice, who are all established Leaugers through many incarnations, much more so than Rocket (which is not to say that I dont enjoy Rocket in the show, because I definatley do).
Were these charicters not considered? Just not fit into your timeline? Some other reason?
If any were simply never considered, why not?
It seems that not including any of them is a missed opportunity for diversity on multiple levels.
Greg responds...
We wanted to begin in Season One with a League that was both highly iconic and quite powerful.
After that, we had plans for some of the members you named.
Anonymous writes...
If Young Justice has not been renewed for a third season, what have you been up to lately?
Also, how excited are you for the new Young Justice video game?
Greg responds...
1. I've just recently gone through all this. Check the archives.
2. Very.
