Young Justice has high-resolution, fluid animation. Does that bring up the cost more compared to other cartoons?

Greg responds...

I'd think so... but I don't know the budgets of OTHER shows.

Hi Greg. I had a question concerning the YJ comic and it's availability on Amazon. So far, no listing for your companion book issues seems to exist, save the following, entitled "Young Justice Vol. 1", scheduled to be released in 2012.

http://www.amazon.com/Young-Justice-Vol-Art-Baltazar/dp/1401233570/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1318612414&sr=1-1

What exactly is this? There's not a lot of information. Will this be a bundled collection of a few of the issues? 160 pages suggests it's a collection, but that number doesn't seem high enough to include every issue out by that point. Thanks.

I think your direct tie-in marketing for the comic is handled really well, as I don't ever buy them, but plan to get this. That said, I wouldn't have had a clue of its existence without this site, and I still wouldn't have had an incentive if I hadn't read here that the content was relevant (other heroes' backstories, lead-in to the Clayface fight). You guys REALLY needs some advertising. I hope you at least include an insert or something with the eventual DVD season.

Greg responds...

I'm only guessing, but it looks like a trade paperback collecting some amount (probably the first six or so) of issues of the comic.

To be clear, I have NO involvement with (let alone control over) the marketing of the show, comic, trades or dvds.

Does Kaldur stay/live at Mount Justice? Seems like only Superboy and M'gann do. But "Downtime" makes me think otherwise since Kaldur was absent from Atlantis for a while. He does seem to be present more often is Mt Justice lately in eps tho...

Greg responds...

ASKED AND ANSWERED.

Kaldur lives in Shayeris. He wasn't absent from Atlantis for a while, he was absent from Poseidonis for awhile. For more on this, check out issues 14 and 15 of the Young Justice Comic Book.

I dont know if this has been asked before but
1. Will we ever See Static and Gear from Static Shock? And if so will we see the metabreed. I just thought that since the Light was after mutagens like the Kobra venom, bang baby gas might be on their list.
2. Is T O Morrow Working for the Light?
3. Will braniac Make an Appearance?
4. Will Gorrila Grodd Make an Appearance

Greg responds...

1. NO COMMENT.

2. With. Or he was anyway.

3. NO COMMENT.

4. NO COMMENT.

Hey. I love Young Justice so much! My friends consider me a tomboy since I love that much.
1. Do Green Lanterns have powers in YJ, or does the ring provide all their powers?
2. Kid Flash mentioned that Green Lantern helped hollow out the Cave. Was he talikng about Hal or John?
3. Who are planning to voice the two Lanterns?

Greg responds...

1. Uh... their rings, if I'm understanding the question correctly.

2. Both probably, but John's the architect.

3. Kevin Michael Richardson is John. No comment on Hal.

Is Robin's mask equipped with electronic lenses? What modes does he have? And I imagine the lenses don't emit a light glow right?

1. Who will Zatanna be voiced by?
2. Without giving any spoilers out, are you planning for every teammate to have some sort of interaction because I've noticed how some of them hasn't even spoken to eachother.
3. Is there anymore information about the comics that the fans can know?

Greg responds...

1. Lacey Chabert.

2. You're exaggerating.

3. Sure. What do you want to know?

Catharine writes...

I've been watching Young Justice since last Thanksgiving, and I'm really enjoying it and am glad we're finally getting new episodes again. No questions right now, just sending you compliments on a generally well-crafted show.

I love Kaldur, M'gann, Superboy, and Artemis, and also Black Canary. I'm really looking forward to getting more about The Light and everyone's evil daddies. I also like the less emotional portrayal of Red Tornado and how you are dealing with Superman being a bad father. Though, I would appreciate it if maybe Wally finally realized not to be a jerk to his female teammates. Also, the internet keeps having persistent rumors that you're going to kill off Kaldur, and I realize it's probably too late as it sounds like season 1 is pretty much in the can, but I beg you not to.

Overall, though, I am enjoying what's happened so far and looking forward to more.

Greg responds...

Glad you like it.

Why did you feel that the Team in Young Justice needed a pet (in the form of Wolf)?

Greg responds...

They have two pets actually, Wolf and Sphere.

But it's not about us thinking the Team needed pets as much as it was about us organically playing out the characters and what they'd do - especially, in this case, Superboy.

What happened to Artemis' ARROW (it's become a huge thing, everyone is spelling it with capitals now) that Wally took as a souvenir after Homefront?

P.S I know this'll be answered months after it's posted, but I would like to thank for all the great episodes which aired in the meantime. I unconditionally love this show.

Greg responds...

It's back in the trophy room, although it's a bit melty now.

Since Superman doesn't care about Superboy. Is his attitude towards him is something like "You stay the h*** away from me!"?

Greg responds...

I think the premise of your question is incorrect, which makes answering it pretty much impossible.

I tried looking at the archives but I couldn't tell if this question had already been asked.
In most of the Superman films, Superman is very caring towards his family such as Supergirl.
How come he isn't this way with Superboy?

Greg responds...

ASKED AND ANSWERED.

Though mostly, I'm just going to let the series and its characters speak for itself/themselves.

1.) What color are Zatanna's eyes?
2.) How old is Zatanna?
3.) I believe Jesse McCartney stated in an interview that Robin would not have a love interest in Season 1. Does the same go for Season 2? (Or any subsequent Seasons?)

2. Fourteen.

2) Were Wolf and Mr. Tawny injected with Kobra-Venom?

Greg responds...

1. Generally, they are on the same page.

2. Yes. Though Tawny at least also received the same brain enhancement treatment that Brain gave Mallah.

Would you and Brandon Vietti consider using the Mad Hatter on Young Justice? Since Batman: The Animated Series, he's been neglected in animation. He was amazing on that show.

Laura 'ad astra' Sack writes...

I apologize if this is a double- it doesn't seem to have posted:
Wow... took me forever just catching up on the unanswered questions. Certainly gives me added appreciation to the time you take to actually answer them. Apologies if I've muddled where some things occurred in the time between watching/reading and typing.

Targets:
1- So Artemas & Cheshire are sisters... it's what I suspected, but I still really like the dynamics it sets up. (It seems odd to read someone feels females are under represented in YJ considering it feels to me like the three characters getting the most play (episodes and comic books combined) are Artemas, M'gann and Superboy. By nature of the time period of the series the girls are among the newest side kicks and it shows, but it's how the pieces fit. I'd love to see more of the wildly effective Black Canary, but the kids are the focus of the series.)

2-Politics....
a-Is it just my imagination, or were the stand in for S. Korea body gaurds not Asian? If so, why?
b-Why talk of reunification and not just relations? The latter seems far more realistic.

3- Was Ras aGhul's line about how "Peaceful countries rarely call upon the League of Shadows" purely for Roy's benefit, or was there some truth behind it?

4- High school... there are sure a lot of superpowered, or eventually to be powered teens in that school.... I think you already said that Conner didn't recognize Snapper Carr.

5- Still loving the way the credits refer to characters as they appeared in the episode- If in uniform, that name. If not, not.

6-The Sphere is a cutie. Still reminding me of the Forever People's car that adopted the previous team name YJ.

Terrors-
Liked it very much, but don't have much to say. Always love seeing The Wall. (Well, excepting the image someone posted of how she looks in the New52 Suicide Squad. Any Amanda Waller I outweigh is just plain wrong.) The nature of the operations was a perfect illustration of what was meant by the team's purpose being covert. The relationship between M'gann and Conner continues to charm. And for once on TV someone notices a face out of place!

One very strange compliment: I don't like Icicle Jr's look. This struck me as a good thing. I hadn't really noticed till I was comparing his human look (which was more pleasing) and his iced up one. It makes sense that the combination of how his condition effects him and his own esthetic sense creates his 'costume' may result in something I personally don't like. There is no reason my tastes and that of a 17 yr old hoodlum with daddy issues should aline.

[I don't remember if it was in reference to this ep, or another in which M'Gann and Conner kiss, but I heard a very amusing anecdote in a podcast interview of Danica McKeller about being asked to actually kiss to get the proper sound in the voice recording. She was ok with it, but Nolan North was distinctly uncomfortable considering how very pregnant she was at the time. http://www.jimmyaquino.typepad.com/comicnewsinsider/2011/08/episode-351-cni-one-shot-animation-special-green-lantern-and-young-justice.html]

Homefront- Also enjoyed a lot but don't have much important to say.
1-The Sphere is still really cute.
2-Artemas shined- being inexperienced and overwhelmed makes sense. How she handled it spoke volumes about her.
3-Robin's 'get trought' line was another instance of a verbal tic I don't love used very well and believably. (I don't love "Hello M'gann!" but I very much like it when she uses it in an offhand almost to herself way. It's how real people use annoying speech habits. ...well it's how I use mine;)
4-I got Barbara's cameo {resisting asking the obvious spoiler questions about whether she's Batgirl yet, sanctioned yet, part of the earlier 'croweded batcave' remark Robin made, or going to show up much at all since she's a Gotham and not YJ character... with great difficulty resisting asking if she knows Dick is Robin, and if so, does Dick know she does.}. I see others have asked if Dick skipped a grade to be a freshman. I think it's been asked how old Bab's is. I'll ask if she's skipped any grades? I'm used to the college at 16 Bab's from the comics.
5- Missed the Bette cameo. oops
6- Red Tornado has 'family'...not complaining, but it makes me miss the version with a wife and daughter. Different universe, different stage of life- I just liked them.
7- My guess: Reddy was not the mole, but the mole is as unaware as Reddy would have been. (Not expecting confirmation.)

Alpha Male- Also really happy with the episode.
1-Liking how M'gann resorts to multiple limbs (your animators must have your faces on dart boards).
2-Capt Marvel is fun.
3-One episode of Conner being ridiculously over protective of one of the most physically imposing members of the group is enough- ending with an actual resolution to the issue was very smart. Whether it ends up being perfect or not, I assume it won't be that over the top going fwd. And I do like it when teenagers are allowed to actually talk about what is making them act stupid instead of being forced to continue that way in some mistaken idea that the brain shorts out completely at puberty.
4-Khory's leadership was nicely showcased. The team's annoyance and eventual understanding was also played out nicely. (Again, allowed to act as kids and keep brain function.)
5-Like how they all figured out the collars.

Latest comic-
Is Artemas at all embarrassed by her mother or just totally focused on her father when she made the comment that so obviously hurt her mother?

Greedy request-
I either forgot to scribble notes or lost them, so I don't have many individual comments on the past few comics. Would it be possible to open Ask Greg for at least a few days after issues hit the stands like you do after episodes air?

I'm sorry to hear about your dog. Your description of the kennel/shelter for basset hounds you got him from is pretty much my husband's description of heaven. (AC and unlimited back rubs.) It conjured up an image for me of a much loved and happy pet.

Greg responds...

TARGETS QUESTIONS

2a. I think there was a mix. Professionally hired and all.

2b. Both were discussed.

3. All things are true.

HOMEFRONT

4. Barbara is 13. I'll admit to being surprised by all the hoohaw about Dick and Barbara being 13 in 9th grade. I was 13 when I started 9th grade and 14 by the time I finished. It doesn't seem that unusual to me. If it makes folks happier to think Barbara skipped one grade, I'm okay with that.

COMIC
"Embarrassed" isn't the word I'd use. But she generally is ASHAMED of her background and relations, dad, mom and sis included.

As for opening Ask Greg, I'd love to but I'm just so overwhelmed with posts (nearly 500 to get through).

This is probably a really dumb question, so I apologize. :(

There's a comic book store in town where I buy the YJ comics, but I sometimes miss a issue and the man refuses to order them for me (for a reason I don't know.) I've tried to find them online but can't. Soooo, do you know of anywhere I can get the ones I missed?

Greg responds...

I'm afraid I don't know. But I DO know they ARE available for purchase online. Check out DC COMICS' own website.
