Hi Greg! Thanks for all your great work.

just a question for you about Ra's Al-Ghoul....

How do YOU prefer to have his name pronounced?

as Ray-sh or Rahz?

Thanks!!

Greg responds...

As you've seen on our show, I've always thought it was Raysh. I seem to recall that that's how Denny O'Neil, his creator. pronounced it.

I have a few questions...

1) How old is Killer Frost?

2) Is Captain Atom composed of living nuclear energy like in the comics or does he have a real flesh and blood body under his containment suit? I only ask because during the Failsafe episode he was depicted wearing an oxygen mask in space like the other JLA heavy hitters, suggesting he needs to breathe and thus must have a corporeal body on Earth 16 unlike in his other cartoon & comic appearances.

3) Is Miss Martian really Martian Manhunter's niece? I'm not curious about her Martian racial background etc (I know there's still some secrecy circulating around her yet to be revealed & I respect that), I'd just like to know if she's really related to the Martian Manhunter, i.e. that part of her origin is officially canon & not a mystery to be unraveled. My apologies in advance if this question counts as spoilers.

Greg responds...

1. Twenty-seven.

2. Captain Atom was NOT composed of living nuclear energy in the comics I wrote with Cary Bates in the eighties and early nineties. (I don't know what they've done since.) We've followed the original template that Cary and I used. There's no containment suit. That's a coating of alien metal covering his flesh and blood body. And, yes, he does need to breathe.

3. According to Red Arrow, who got his information from Black Canary, who in turn got it from Martian Manhunter, she is.

Hey Greg! First of all, I'd like to say that my brothers and friends and I all love Young Justice. Your team are doing a wonderful job, keep up the good work~

I had a question about the abilities of speedsters on Earth-16. It would seem from Wally's appetite that he has an accelerated metabolism. I thought that would mean he has accelerated healing, but he's had a broken arm for almost a month now (Broken in Revelation, Oct. 1, and and still has a cast in Disordered, Oct. 23). I expected it to heal much faster, so:
Do Kid Flash and the Flash have accelerated healing in this universe? If so, how much faster is it than a normal human's healing abilities?

Greg responds...

I don't much like to quantify things.

But Kid Flash does have accelerated healing. But perhaps not as accelerated as you may be used to from the comment.

Flash is WAY faster than Kid Flash... and so I assume he heals way faster too.

Why don't White Martians just shift green?

Greg responds...

On a planet of telepaths, what would be the point?

Are You Planning to Get Tales from the Crypt star John Kassir in Young Justice?

You remember Tales from the Crypt right?

Greg responds...

1. As always, I'm not going to comment on future actors who might or might not appear in the show.

2. Yes, though I never watched it. (Not my thing.)

In the episode diordered, when black canary commented on M'gann turing white automatically, her reaction was surprising but more worrying. Does this mean she's actually a white martian passing off as green like the comics or is she a green maritan who is scared of turning white martian because of he she saw they way they have been treated?

Greg responds...

SPOILER REQUEST. NO COMMENT.

Hey Greg, I have seen the recent episodes of "Young Justice" and that I have seen who the members of "The Light" (Project Cadmus' Board of Directors) are. L-1 is Vandal Savage, L-2 is Ra's al Ghul, L-3 is Lex Luthor, L-4 is one of the Bialyan Queen Bees, L-5 is Ocean Master (there hasn't been a mentioning if he and Orm are the same thing yet), L-6 is Brain, and L-7 is Klarion the Witch Boy. The episode "Revelations" had them using the Injustice League as their proxies where you and Jamie Thomason had casted Alyssa Milano as Poison Ivy and Brent Spiner as Joker. Brent did a good job with his rendition of Joker.

Back with the Bialyan Queen Bee that Marina Sirtis voices, there were two Bialyan Queen Bees in DC Comics. The first one was an enemy of Justice League International until she was assassinated by Colonel Rumaan Harjavti's brother Sumaan. The second one is the sister of the previous Bialyan Queen Bee named Beatriz who status is unknown after Captain Marvel's Extreme Justice team brought an end to her activities. So which of these Bialyan Queen Bees did you place as L-4?

I was pleased with how you shown the Forever People, Desaad, and Intergang in "Disordered." When it came to Intergang, the only members identified were Bruno Mannheim (the son of Moxie "Boss" Mannheim) and Whisper A'Daire (who used to work for Ra's al Ghul's League of Assassins) while the rest seemed to be Intergang foot soldiers. When it came to Desaad, there was a reference about Desaad's master probably indicating that Darkseid and the other New Gods of Apokolips might appear at some point.

Greg responds...

The first Queen Bee of Bialya.

Was Matt Bluestone's departure from the FBI a forced resignation or was he just fired?

And while on the subject of Bluestone, do you know what years he joined and left the FBI and what year he joined the NYPD?

Greg responds...

1. Probably a forced resignation. But in essence, he was fired.

2. Matt joined the FBI in 1987. And left in 1992. By 1994, he was with the NYPD.

Hey, Greg. Loved "Disclosure" last Friday. I've never seen or read anything with the Forever People in it, so this was my first experience with them, and I'm happy to report that it was a good one.

I found the therapy sessions to be interesting, as well. I actually do have a question about some of the things Robin said. Obviously, this was a very crucial moment in his development as a character. 1. Were his concerns about taking over the Batman mantle supposed to be an allusion to the kind of Batman Dick became in the comics? Or was it more of a Nightwing reference? 2. Was Black Canary the only one Dick felt comfortable opening up to? If given the chance, would he have confided in Alfred and Bruce?

Greg responds...

1. Neither.

2. Maybe Alfred, but I don't think he's ready to tell Bruce yet. Not because Bruce is an ogre or anything, but because sometimes kids are afraid of disappointing their parents.
