Whose idea was it for Demona to start turning into a human during the day and why did you add it to the series? Did you plan for that to happen from the beginning?

Greg responds...

I think it was mine. But so many years later, I can't be sure. So much of the series was a collaboration.

And, no, we didn't know we were going to do that at the beginning. But it became clear that was the way to go.

Hey Greg, I just have few questions about Young Justice.

1. Will more of Batman's baddies appear on the show, if so will you feature Arkham Asylum?
2. Does Harley Quinn exist on Earth-16?
3. Will Starro play a bigger role in a later episode?

Greg responds...

1. SPOILER REQUEST. NO COMMENT.

2. SPOILER REQUEST. NO COMMENT.

3. SPOILER REQUEST. NO COMMENT.

<sigh>

Actually, Starro raids Arkham Asylum, frees all the Batman villains and then after a conversation with Joker, morphs itself into a human woman and takes the name Harley Quinn in order to be closer to Mr. J.!

Hey greg it's not actually a question about Gargoyles, but the MiB cartoon series. In the episode Big Bad Bug you wrote, Kay throws an expanding cube at Jay, what was the name of that device when you devise it?

Are there any other devices/weapons either you or Jon created that were never mentioned by name in the series? I was compiling some of that data and if you happen to still have that info it would be great!

Thanks for your time and help,
Marcos Bolton

Greg responds...

I'm sorry, it's just been WAY too long. I can't remember.

What's Misplaced about?

on wiki and world's finest, it usually tells us what it's about a little. and i read that you have all of rest of season 1 is all finished.

or basically, what's Misplaced about?

Greg responds...

It's about a lost glove. Robin loses a glove. The whole Team spends twenty-two minutes searching the Cave for it. Eventually, they find it in the gym. The episode ends with Kid Flash using a safety pin to pin the glove to Robin's tunic. Robin blushes. Everyone has a big laugh about it.

SERIOUSLY - WHAT DID YOU EXPECT ME TO SAY HERE?!!!

This may be my new policy. Every time I get a spoiler request from here on in, I'll give BLATANTLY FALSE INFORMATION.

Either that, or I'll reply with: SPOILER REQUEST. NO COMMENT.

Hey Greg, I watched the episode "Secrets" and I wanted to know why Robin had that look on his face at the end of the scene? Was he frustrated or is that a wait-and-see thing?

Greg responds...

I think he was disturbed.

Hey Greg,

I've got important questions I need ask you about the Young Justice version of Superboy, as well as other Superman-related topics. I apologize in advance if any of your guidelines are broken or if spoiler alerts are triggered.

The first question is a three-parter. How did you determine which powers Superboy were allowed to have during this first season? Why were his remaining powers left out to remain inaccessible to him? With the nature of Superboy starting with fewer powers instead of getting all of his powers at once, was your decision to make this move for the character inspired by watching The CW network show "Smallville"?

The second question is a two-part question about the powers Superboy does not have yet. In your opinion, do you and your team have a basic idea about which order these inaccessible powers will appear? Also, do you also have an idea about the type of situations Superboy has to be in so he will be able to trigger these powers?

The third question is about Superboy's clothing/costume. In your opinion, have you and your team considered the possibility of giving Superboy changes in his costume in future seasons in the show? There is a very specific reason I am asking. Based on what I have seen thus far, my assumption is that your team's character development for Superboy seems to parallel to that of Clark Kent/Superman as interpreted in "Smallville," especially since that show established the strict rule of "No tights, no flight." Can we safely assume that as future seasons of Young Justice go by, Superboy will be undergoing several costume changes similar to that of Clark Kent/Superman of "Smallville"?

The fourth question is about the location Smallville in the Young Justice universe. In the episode, "Failsafe" the location had a brief cameo as part of the mental simulation. In your opinion, will we be able to see the actual Smallville on the show, as well as its well-known residents (the Kents, Lana Lang, Pete Ross, etc)?

The fifth question is about the Fortress of Solitude. The only appearance of the fortress was the front door with the House of El symbol (Was that really a door? There's no keyhole). If the Fortress of Solitude appears again, will we see it in better detail (both inside and outside)? What exactly is the Young Justice version of the Fortress of Solitude based on (from other Superman-related shows to be exact)?

Thank you for taking the time to read my questions. I hope to hear your responses soon!

Greg responds...

1a. We based it on what we believed a super boy could do: enhanced strength, vision, hearing, endurance, etc. But none of Superman's more fantastic powers, such as flight or heat-vision or even X-Ray vision. And no super-cold-breath EVER.

1b. Didn't seem realistic for the way we were interpreting the character.

1c. I can't speak for Brandon, but I'd say we were way more influenced by Superman's original 1938 power level.

2a. SPOILER REQUEST. NO COMMENT.

2b. SPOILER REQUEST. NO COMMENT.

3. I'm not all that familiar with Smallville. I only saw a handful of episodes, but I thought Clark just wore normal clothes in that show. I didn't think he had 'costumes'. As to what our Superboy will be wearing: SPOILER REQUEST. NO COMMENT.

4. SPOILER REQUEST. NO COMMENT.

5. SPOILER REQUEST. NO COMMENT.

For the GargWiki's timeline, I was wondering if you would share the dates and descriptions from your timeline of the events from #10, #11, ans #12 of "Gargoyles."

Thanks

Greg responds...

997
Time-Dancing Brooklyn arrives and immediately encounters King Constantine, Maíl Brigti, Gillecomgain and Brother Valmont. He rescues Mary and Finella (and the Grimorum Arcanorum) from villagers, who believe the two women are witches. He gains a sword in the process. Maol Chalvim, Findlaech, Kenneth III (a.k.a. The Grim) and Bodhe discuss how to topple Constantine, perhaps by allying with gargoyles. Constantine and Gillecomgain destroy a cell of gargoyles at Sruighlea, and Demona finds the rubble. (“The Gate”) Brooklyn, Mary and Finella journey to Wyvern but are unable to acquire Goliath’s piece of the Phoenix Gate. Constantine shaves his head. Demona tells her cell of gargoyles, including Second, Sacrifice, Brooksbro, Schnozz, Kermit, True, Chomp and Chaw about the dead Sruighlea gargoyles. Brooklyn, Mary and Finella make contact with Grim, and Brooklyn tracks down Demona to get her help. (“Tyrants”)

Hunter’s Moon, 997
All combatants and their armies converge at Rathveramoen. Valmont takes the Grimorum. (“Tyrants”) Valmont uses the Grimorum to rain arrows from heaven. Sacrifice, Maíl Brigti and the old nag Magus are killed. Demona ends the spell. Brooklyn returns the Grimorum to Finella. Constantine III is killed at age @26 at the Battle of Rathveramoen by the popular Kenneth III (Katharine’s cousin, the son of Duff). The Phoenix returns and Brooklyn, Finella and Mary leave this time period with the Grimorum. (“Phoenix”)

Saturday, January 10th, 1997
Brooklyn is accidentally sent dancing through time by the Phoenix that was inside the Phoenix Gate. (“The Gate”) He returns to the present mere seconds after he departed. But for him, forty years have passed, and he has not come back alone. Brooklyn brings along his mate Katana, their son Nashville, the gargoyle beast Fu-Dog and an unhatched gargoyle egg, nicknamed Egwardo. (“Phoenix”)

Syd writes...

So if Superboy has a birthday (er...release-from-pod day) of July 4th, what are the rest of the Team's birthdays?

Greg responds...

That's not Superboy's birthday, even as he counts it.

Some of the birthdays of the Team are SPOILER REQUESTS. Others I just haven't needed to figure out yet.
