Hi!
I have a few Young Justice questions about magic. First, is magical affinity in their world partly genetic? (Zatanna shares her father's powers, and many Atlanteans have magical skill.) Or does it have more to do with teaching and personality (Kent Nelson told Nabu that Wally's soul belonged to science)? Could a lone student with a spellbook learn, or does it take more than that?
Last, I absolutely loved Zatanna changing her boots to a more practical version in "Secrets"! More battle-practical female attire, please!
Greg responds...
1. It helps.
2. Certain individuals may have more of an affinity for magic than others.
3. Potentially. Doesn't mean they'll be good at it.
4. Thanks; we agree.

Hey Greg :)
Did the event of Snowbird's Don't Fly ever happen in the show's universe? It didn't look like it, from the way Roy left Ollie, but you never know. Sorry if this has been asked before, but I couldn't find it in the archives.
Thanks! Love the show by the way; everybody who's complaining about it is just looking for reasons to gripe.
(And good luck with all these questions!)
Greg responds...
SPOILER REQUEST. NO COMMENT.

What spell did Zatanna try to conjure before she was "chocked" by Red Tornado? What did she say?
What spells Zatanna used in "Secrets" and "Misplaced"?
What does Klarion say when he attacks Zatanna? Was that reversed speech too?
Greg responds...
Have I really not answered regarding 115 and 118 yet?
Okay, here we go. (I assume you can do the backwards translating yourself once you see them in writing.)
115 "Humanity"/Zatanna's spells:

In your opinion, will people stop asking you for spoilers and trying to sneak it past you by disingenuously framing it as "in your opinion, will this happen on the show", as if it could be a matter of opinion and not certain knowledge when you are the showrunner?
Greg responds...
What exactly are you asking here? Whether or not I'm going to give a free pass to people who phrase the request sneakily? Or whether folks will stop asking when I make it clear that it's not going to work?
As to the former, I'm not that dense. As to the latter, I wish. But I doubt it. I don't know how I could have made this point any clearer:
I WILL NOT BE SPOILING!!!
And yet...

You have said in the past that if you were ever allowed to use guest appearances in spec spidey(if it had continued) there was a particular Hulk story you wanted to adapt. Was it the story from Amazing spider-man annual 3? If not which story was it?
Greg responds...
Did I say that? A particular story?
I don't recall saying that. I definitely wanted to adapt that era when Hulk was practically a force of nature - and a bit of a Bigfoot-style legend, with very few people absolutely knowing for certain that he existed.

What is hob-goblin of little minds about?
Greg responds...
SPOILER REQUEST. NO COMMENT.
Anonymous writes...
In awakenings when fortress 1 is destroyed we see the crew jumping out into the river. Does this mean all the crew escaped safely, if not were there any actual deaths from that incident?
Greg responds...
Hard to believe EVERYONE survived.
Anonymous writes...
Ok trying these questions seperately this time around hoping atleast something gets approved.
While it appears that Xanatose generally prefers to avoid killing he's had his moments where he almost does(sending the steel clan to kill the gargs in awakenings when he realized he can't control them being the biggest example). So I have to ask has he ever killed or had someone killed?
Greg responds...
Not that he'd admit to.
BLA writes...
Hello Greg,
I absolutely love watching Young Justice, and I want to compliment you and your staff for putting on such a stellar show week after week (when Cartoon Network actually decides to aire episodes, that is). The script and attention you all give to detail is truly phenomenal, which brings me to my first question:
1. For the particulars of each episode (ie: Robin’s knowledge of computers, Wally’s knowledge of science, and people speaking foreign languages), do you actually have specialists on hand such as linguists, chemists, geologists, physicists, etc. to consult when determining how exactly you would diffuse a volcanic explosion among other things? Or do you and the writers just do an obscene amount of research before writing up each scenario?
Also, I’m fairly convinced at this point that the ability to withhold spoilers is some sort of superpower. I know I’d be too excited for the show to refrain from giving out details. Do you don a mask and cape to become “The Weisman†before answering our questions?
Thank you for your time. As always, it’s a pleasure watching your work and reading your responses.
~BLA
Greg responds...
1. Mostly we do a ton of research - and we also make a ton of stuff up. But I do have a few experts I go to for certain things. For example, Aris Katsaris has provided us with the Ancient Greek which we've adapted to Atlantean. John Wells helps out with all things DC Universe. Etc.
2. No cape. But sometimes I put on a funny nose and glasses. Actually, I'm just a stingy individual when it comes to SPOILERS. It isn't hard for me to refrain from revealing stuff. In fact, some of the folks here at Warner Bros. want me to TEASE more about upcoming content, and I'm extremely reluctant.
Batman's Bitch writes...
How did Red Arrow know where Artemis was at the end of episode six? There are many zeta tubes teleporters, and not only in gotham, how did he know where to find her?
Greg responds...
He obviously ran a surreptitious computer check in the Cave before departing. (Or something else. To some extent, the specifics don't matter.)
Algernon writes...
Hey again, hopefully the queue hasn't become to full by now. Anyway, I remember asking you once if you'd ever be willing to post the TSSM series bible online. As I recall, you said you'd think about it.
Just wondering if you've given the idea any further thought?
Greg responds...
Well, Algernon, as I respond to this, there's over 800 questions in the queue. EIGHT HUNDRED!!!
And I haven't even gotten to the airing of YJ episode 119 yet.
Anyway, I'm open to posting the SpecSpidey Bible, but the problem is I don't have it here at Warner Bros (for obvious reasons). So I need to be reminded either when I'm home or at my office in Beverly Hills.

Sue Weisman 1910-2012
Earlier this week, my astounding grandmother, Sue Weisman, passed away just a couple weeks shy of her 102nd birthday.
She led an amazing life that saw the world change in amazing ways. There are hundreds of stories. Stories her of growing up on New York's lower east side with five older brothers, two younger sisters (all gone now) and the restaurant that her father owned and her Yiddish-speaking mother ran, stories of the three young girls in their pretty dresses driving back from New Jersey with liquor hidden under the seat. There are stories of her meeting and marrying my grandfather Aaron Weisman and moving to Chicago during the days of Frank Nitti, of whom she had - from personal experience - a very negative view. There are stories of moving to Los Angeles and Beverly Hills in the fifties. And stories of her over 40 years as a volunteer at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art.
But mostly, there are stories of her family: her three children, eight grandchildren and TWELVE great-grandchildren, not to mention numerous, spouses, nieces, nephews, cousins, etc. She was a most astounding matriarch, and she will be missed.
But the truth is she's been missed for quite some time. She was with us and WITH IT right through and past her 100th birthday. But in the months that followed, I firmly believe she decided she was done. Somewhere inside her, she flipped a switch and was gone, even though her physical body hadn't received the memo. She hasn't been herself in over a year, and her finally passing is, I believe, a blessing.
I think that's why it's taken me so long to write this. I'm trying to get my head around my LACK of response to this loss. Its hard not to think that there must be something wrong inside me not to feel worse - let alone... anything. Maybe it'll hit me later. The entire Weisman clan is gathering next week on what would have been her 102nd birthday, not to memorialize her but to celebrate her life. And I'm looking forward to it - even if (or maybe especially if) it results in the death finally hitting home. (Heck, I thought writing this might trigger something, but no.) Mostly, I think the culprit is that the mourning for me took place some time ago. It began when she made the decision to stop going to the theater with me and the kids. We had a subscription to A NOISE WITHIN, a classical theater company here in the Los Angeles area, and she enjoyed it thoroughly, even as her hearing deteriorated, making it increasingly difficult for her to follow what was going on. But I was still stunned when she chose not to accompany us any longer. And bits and pieces of her faded away from there. Our last real conversation was extremely frustrating for both of us. She thought I was my father, even though my father was sitting just a few seats away. And she kept asking me how "Sam" was - when none of the rest of us assembled could figure out WHO Sam was. Finally, something else she said finally made me realize she was talking about my son Benny. But even when I offered up that name, she didn't recognize it. At the very end, she couldn't recognize anyone. So perhaps I was overly prepared for this eventuality. Perhaps one day when I least expect it, it will knock me for a loop. But not today.
In the meantime, join me in celebrating a wonderful lady and a great broad: Sue Weisman.
