You mentioned that Angela was raised christan, to an extent anyway by Katherine but was not necessarily bapitised.

I read a book about "monsters" in medieval art and apparently St Augustine claimed that even "monsters" were worthy of salvation but only if they were descended from man. Apparently Augustine's comments were very important to missionaries and their work. Could this have been a reason that Katherine didn't bapitise the Gargoyles as they weren't descended from man? Or was it a more literal, no priest on Avalon king of thing?

Greg responds...

I'd have to do some research, I guess.

Sportsmaster is sometimes credited as Crusher Crock, but his wife calls him Lawrence.

1. Does anyone other than Paula call him Lawrence?
2. Which one does he prefer?
3. Has he ever gone by just Larry?

Greg responds...

1. Various parole officers?

2. Crusher.

3. Ever? Maybe.

Mr. Greg,

I was just wondering...where do you draw the line between "speculaton", "story ideas", and "spoiler reqests".
It seems to me like this is a pretty vauge gray area (even a spoiler reqest could be either of the former in question form)...almost any question/comment that does not pertain to precicley what has already happened could potentially be labled "story idea" or "spoiler request". But seriously, who watches/reads anything without wondering what the circumstamses surrounding the events on screen/panel

Greg responds...

Ultimately, it doesn't matter too much. Spoiler requests won't be met. Story ideas are forbidden. So that just leaves speculation, but this isn't really the forum for speculation. That's better suited to a discussion forum like this one: http://www.toonzone.net/forums/showthread.php?297208-quot-Young-Justice-quot-News-amp-Discussion-Thread-Part-20-(Spoilers)

Hi Greg, My brothers and I love young justice, its probably one of our favorite shows right now, so thank you very much for making it.
We were wondering, why does Robin have a black and red costume like Tim Drake, and not his usual Red and Green costume? I saw a preview poster from a while back and his sleeves and pants were green, i don't know if that was just fan made, but I would really like to know. Thank You so much for your time. :)

Greg responds...

These were decisions made mostly by Brandon Vietti and Phil Bourassa. You'd have to ask them.

In some ways it seems the surviving Gargoyles were quite lucky with who survived. As Hudson was elderly and the trio were teens, none were in a position to challenge Goliath even if they wanted to. There was a very clear chain of command. There was also no females, so there was no conflict amongst the males about mates up until Angela joined.
1)What would have happened if Goliath had survived with a female group or predominatly female group of Gargoyles such as Hyppolyta, Desdemona or True for example/etc? Would he have felt obligated to take a mate from this group to preserve his species?
2)What if all the survivors were of Goliath's generation? After what happened with Wyvern would these adults in their prime have still accepted Goliath's leadership?(E.G Iago, Coldstone, Desdemona, Hyppolyta etc)
P.S If you think the questions are too general could you please answer regarding the characters that we've met or you've told us about from the Wyvern Clan. Thanks.

Greg responds...

1. I'm not interested in hypotheticals.

2. Ditto. It's not about whether the question is too general or specific, it's the very nature of the question that puts me off. Everything is about context. A hypothetical brings no context except what the answerer chooses to add. And for me to create proper context for questions like these, I'd have to write entire series with the revised scenario ... and I'm not about to do that here.

Despite everything that Demona's done, would Hudson still sacrifice himself for her if it came to it? Does he still consider her his daughter?

Greg responds...

1. I think it would depend on circumstances. (As always, I'm not too interested in hypotheticals.)

2. Yes. A very naughty daughter.

Hey Greg. I have a few questions about Young Justice which is an amazing show.
1.Is Superboy affected less by Kryptonite because of his human DNA?since Superman passed out in Auld aquiantance when Robin brought out Kryptonite but Superboy didn't.
2. Does Miss Martian have any extra white Martian abilities that Green Martians don't have?
3. Is it true that Martians age slower than humans because of Mars' distance from the sun?If this is true, are Miss Martian or Martian Manhunter affected in any way when on earth?
4. Since Sportsmaster was defeated by Artemis in Usual suspects, will he be sent to Belle Reve?

Greg responds...

1. Both were equally effected, but before Robin put the kryptonite away, he put a Cure-Tech chip on Superman's neck. That's what caused Superman to pass out.

2. There are no differences in abilities between Green and White Martians.

3. No.

4. It's somewhat moot by the beginning of Season Two, five years later.

1) Was it mandated that Blue Beetle had to appear in season 2?

2) Why did you pick Lagoon Boy over Garth as a Team member/ally?

Greg responds...

1. No.

2. Our feeling was that organically, Garth would have joined and left the Team, all within the five year gap.

A couple of questions on Qurac and Bialya

* I noticed on the map in Image, they look like Syria and Iraq. was this deliberate?
* Are they Arabian or North African countries?
* I've seen Dhabar in a comic once, but not Al-Qawiya. Was it always Bialya's capital, or did you make it up? What does it mean?

Greg responds...

1. No.

2. Both.

3. Both names came from DC's oeuvre. I don't know what - if anything - it means.

Great job on the season finale! There's some imagery there that'll give me nightmares for a while yet... I have a question about Roy and the wonderful Mr. Crispin Freeman, who was a really great choice to play a really great role.

1. Was Crispin Freeman told about Roy's role in the plot? Did he know from the first episode that Roy was both the mole and a clone, or was that reveal kept from him until the relevant episodes were recorded?

Greg responds...

1. Honestly, I don't remember. It'd be a good question to ask Crispin. (Is there an ASK CRISPIN somewhere? Cuz if not, there should be.)
