Is the Green Arrow short in continuity with Young Justice since you were/are involved with both?

Greg responds...

I was also involved with W.I.T.C.H., Starship Troopers, Gargoyles and the Spectacular Spider-Man, and none of those are in continuity with Young Justice.

Infiltrator comments:

1- Last one first- I noticed in the credits that three characters had special creator credits- Batman, Miss Martian and Cheshire. Why do some characters have special credits? (I get that some contracts might have been less 'work for hire' than others, but I can't imagine Kane (or his estate) having more control than Schuster & Segal did back in the day (or their estates now), especially considering that Superboy was not one of the specially credited characters, and IIRC Schuster and/or Segal's family actually won in court that they owned the character and he literally died in continuity until DC could sort that one out.)

2- Artimas' interaction with Cheshire and the Light reminds me a little of Cass (Batgirl) and the League of Assasins. More interesting is that she has some sort of relationship with Cheshire, when in the print universe Roy was err... involved with her.

3- Interesting- M'gan has siblings (of some sort) on Mars. I figure asking if she's a White or Green Martian is a "Wait and see" type of question. Would it be a legit question to ask if Mars has a living population in the YJ universe? (just to be clear, if so, I'm asking that ;)

4- What made you have Roy choose Red Arrow over Arsenal as his new code name?

5- Do I read correctly that Speedy, Robin and Aqualad where aquanted with Speedy before the League membership debacle? They, and by extension the rest of the group, seem to relate to him as a friend and someone they worked with in the past and not someone they crossed paths with once.

6- The destroyed weapon- did the stolen data survive the destruction of the device? I would assume that Star Labs stuff would have been downloaded, but the partial attack on Wayne Industries could still be in the device.

Greg responds...

1. This practice is the call of DC Comics legal department, and I'll admit it's a source of curiosity and sometimes perplexity for us as well. I mean, we'd love to credit EVERY character's creator, but we have so many characters it could get a little crowded on that card. And we're not entirely clear why some get the credit and some don't. Great question, though. If you learn a definitive answer, please let me know.

2. ...

4. "SPOILER REQUEST. NO COMMENT."

5. Speedy was well-acquainted with Speedy. ;) Anyway, yes, all four of those sidekicks knew each other before. Some were closer than others. Aqualad and Speedy were pretty good friends. Kid Flash and Robin are very good friends. But July 4th was the first time all four of them had been in the same place at the same time.

6. The Wayne intel was not acquired by the League of Shadows. The STAR and MBU materials were.

Hey Greg, I saw the promo cover for Young Justice issue 2 and it seems that the Joker is the main villian of that issue.
1. So my question is, is he?
2.If yes to no.1, will the Joker appear in the series?

Greg responds...

1. In a way.

2. "SPOILER REQUEST. NO COMMENT."

DC Hero writes...

Is the the reason Superboy doesn't converse with the others on the team (except Aqualad..mostly) is because of his lack of realationship with Superman?

Greg responds...

Super's a boy of few words in general. He's socially awkward, certainly. But I think you're overstating it. And let's not assume we're seeing every conversation on screen. We're not. If you want to see more, supplement your viewing with the new Young Justice in-continuity companion comic book. You'll get more background and even conversation there.

Now more questions about Captain Marvel! (What can I say? I have a soft spot for the Kid)
1)How old is Billy Batson?
2)The League knows he's actually a kid?

First: Sorry for freaking out with my last question. I had just watched Drop Zone, and I'm a bit sensitive about the portrayal of my language and my culture in media (maybe someday I'll find it in my heart to forgive Jurassic Park's depiction of "San José, Costa Rica" but I don't think so)
Second: Thank you for answering my first question, it was... useless, I didn't expect anything else from you.
Third: Why Wally has to go to school in Infiltrator, but Dick doesn't? I heard that apparently the school year starts at different dates in different parts of the United States. Is that it?
Thanks a lot, and let's hope YJ doesn't suffer Spectacular Spiderman's fate.

Greg responds...

First: Don't sweat it.

Second: Ditto.

Third: Yes, different schools start at VASTLY different times in the U.S. Some schools are quote-unquote year round, meaning that the summer break might be ridiculously short. And schools these days can start pretty much as early as August 1st and pretty much as late as October 1st, depending on the school and the community.

Poor Wally. Will he ever have any luck with the ladies? Or is he just going to be the Johnny Bravo of the group?
