Hey Greg, Have you and your team thought of adapting the new up-to-date costumes that the League and others wear in the New 52 DC series on to the Young Justice series?

Anonymous writes...

Some quick questions:

a. How old was Earth-16's Cissie King-Jones when she was first introduced in "Insecurity?"

b. While we've seen Cissie's father, where is her mother on Earth-16? I would hate to believe that the father is taking care of Cissie all by himself, because that would be just so sad.

Thanks!

Out of curiosity, has an Earth-16 prequel series (before the events of Young Justice in 2010) which can focus only on the Justice League ever been considered?

AlexP writes...

So! Now that Young Justice has started it's second season and we're heading more towards the Young Justice team as seen in the comics such as, Lagoon Boy (showed up once), Tim Drake, Superboy, Wonder Girl, Secret (Already featured in an episode), Arrowette (Who was also featured in the series but not as a hero). Im assuming that Impulse(Bart Allen) will be appearing soon as well. Comments?

In Auld Lang Syne, what did Zatanna say to make Captain Marvel say "Shazam!" I'm always curious about the backwards text, but it's often said fast, in the heat of battle, making it hard to decode. Since you have access to the script, I thought I'd ask.

Do you have any plans to further the plot of Spectacular through means outside of television? Like, something written, perhaps in the way of a script or in a more novel-like style of writing?

Since the video game is multiplatform, will there be any differences between any of the console versions than the others?
For example, will the nintendo DS or Wii version be drastically different from the PS3 or Xbox 360 version of the game since they have different graphics and control systems?

Also, why is Zatanna shown as an adult on the game page, but everyone else still as a minor?

I just saw someone's question about an error in the France timestamp in Misplaced and you telling him you can't be wrong because you were too careful. Obviously, you were not as careful as you thought because he was completely right. It says November 5 4:09 CEST when daylight savings in France and all other EU countries ends in the last Sunday of October. It should have been CET.

I kinda feel bad for the guy who just asked you a question about an obvious error of yours and you answered acting like you're above small errors like that. Hey, it happens to everybody, you could've been more polite and just admitted your mistake.

Hello Mr. Weisman. You won't remember me - I asked a question a while back about CN's rules about guns on the show.

Anyway, as somebody who really wants to write for television in the future, I'm asking you if you have any tips for breaking into the industry. I'm a high school junior so I'm beginning to look at colleges and was wondering if you had any advice to give out when it comes to getting into the buisness of television writing.

As always, love the series and can't wait for more!

Hi Greg,

I really enjoyed the first episode of Young Justice: Invasion. I have a couple questions:

1. It seems that as team is still covert and being run by Nightwing. Would you consider the team as Earth-16's equivalent to the Outsiders?
2. What made you decide to not have the viewer hear Blue Beetle's suits discussions with Jaime?

Brandon writes...

Hi Greg,

Let me first say that there are plenty of things about Young Justice that I really enjoy, but I don't want to waste your time by listing everything. I do have one question though:

In "Happy New Year!", when it's revealed what happened during the 16 hours that some league members were missing, it seems like no one had figured it out already. Are we really supposed to believe that Batman (the world's greatest detective) just gave up trying to figure out where he went? I mean, he had plenty of time to investigate it. Again, thanks for a great show!

Reiena Grayson writes...

If people are saying you ruined Young Justice, I don't think you did, I'm more curious about the show more than ever. Love Tim's look, and attitude, and loving that Dick still isn't part of the League. I had a feeling that Bumblebee would be in it, Love that Cassie is Wondergirl, and Blue Beetle is funny when he's talking to the Scarab. Okay, now the big part.

I'm so glad Dick hasn't lost his personality over five years, but will we be seeing more of his wordplay in the future is my question (don't have to answer, will be following intensly.

I think the time skip was perfect, since and invasion like what was seen today could take a lot of planning, and Vandal has some kind of plan, I just know it.

Okay, my rant is over, but overall, I was WHELMED, but I couldn't take my eyes off the screen, so I guess I was OVERwhelmed. LOL, got in a bit of Dick's wordplay.

Can't wait for more, Greg, and thanks for a great show.

Hey Greg. I just had one question I wanted to ask you.

1. In the 2nd episode of the Pilot for Gargoyles, Owen mentions that Wyvern castle is haunted. Was this just originally a throw away line similar to Matt Bluestone's line about the Illuminati, or was did was the line meant all long to lay the seeds for a possible episode in the (then) future about the ghost of Hakon and the Captain? Or has it been so long that you honestly don't remember, because if it was that I honestly do understand.

Thanks.

All Things Artemis (Part Two):
6.) What made you choose to make her Mom’s former alias Huntress instead of Tigress?
7.) What exactly happened to Paula Crock that caused her to become paralyzed?
8.) Last but certainly not least, Wally and Artemis’s romance on this show is not only my favorite on the show, but might be my favorite romance on all the show’s you’ve produced. That’s no small feat amongst company like Goliath/Eliza, Fox/Xanatos, Peter/Gwen, Spider-Man/Black Cat. As a Wally West fan (my favorite of the Flashes), you and the YJ crew have also done something I didn’t think possible. Make me want to see him end up with someone besides Linda Park. Not that I wouldn't mind that as a detour, but as long as all roads end with him and Artemis together I'd be happy. I also thought Wally scooping her up before their first kiss and Artemis being fine with it was adorable as well. I’d also be remiss if I didn’t give major props to Jason Spisak and Stephanie Lemelin. Those two have had cracking chemistry from day one Artemis showed up. Whether it's them bickering or in the more tender moments, they deserve just as much credit as you and the crew did for bringing this relationship to life. I imagine it was probably a joy to watch them interacting at the table readings and/or voice recordings. Anyways this one wasn’t a question so much as me giving you and the crew a pat on the backs for creating one of my favorite romances in animation. I look forward to where both Wally and Artemis end up going in Season 2.
9.) But I digress at what point in the beginning did you guys decide to have Wally and Artemis be one of the main romances on this show?

Because Megan has such a large family, at least from what she said, do Martians either have multiple births at once, have a cultural emphasis on children, or are polygamous (the latter also known as, a way to keep both the Supermartian and Wonder Boy (Tenetive name) fans happy)

You answered the question about Robin and Kid Flash being a homosexual pairing.....

EXALT writes...

Ok, my question is about the "death rules" in your shows, AKA the conditions under which you could kill a character off (for example, you said in your Gargoyles' rambles that you could show Othello and Desdemona in "City of Stone, Part 1" because A)the audience already knew they were dead and B)it already knew they'd be back as Coldstone, otherwise you couldn't have personalized the victims of the massacre; you also said that, even though you killed off the Magus in "Avalon, Part 3", you couldn't actually say outloud that he was dead).
So, the question is: under which conditions you could actually kill a character off in Gargoyles, W.I.T.C.H. and Young Justice?
(Ok, fine, I suppose it counts as three questions)

Ashton writes...

I wanted to know if Rocket kissed Aqualad on the cheek as a friend or was that the start of there relationship? Personally I hope Aqualad keeps his head clear because being a leader of a team is already enough to worry about. For example Batman has always been solo and he knows its dangerous to be in a relationship because your putting that person your with a risk.

My second question is how old would you say these new teen superheroes your introducing Blue Beetle, Wonder Girl, Lagoon Boy are they all around the same age as the Young Justice team 16-17?

Keeping in mind that the first series was set in 2010,

4) How many years ago was Savage attacked by that bear that scared him?
5) What year was the Justice Leage formed?

Not sure if this is a spoiler request, if so please disregard...
My qyestion is about "Agendas"...what was the Leauge's decision on age for membership...chronology, biology, or simething as simple as legality - the age of aduthood where that person is from?
For instance, Gipsi is a nomad who isnt under one juristiction..how would you catagorize her (I tried to think of a character that I assume you are not going to use...Im not asking if she is GOING to be in the Leauge...just if it were possible under the rules you set).

Hi Greg. I just wanted to say that I know how frustrating it can be working on a show that draws from so many years of comic book mythology and has so many diehard fans. You can't please everyone and those who are not pleased seem to be the most vocal. That being said... Young Justice is AMAZING. You have managed to make so many characters in the DC Universe (or is that Nation?) that I once thought of as superfluous or one-dimensional... utterly fascinating. Auld Acquaintance was an amazing ending for the first season and I can not wait for Young Justice Invasion. As I said, I know some people aren't pleased with things like Zatanna being young enough to be on the Team , the addition of Icon and Rocket or there being 3 Green Lanterns on Earth simultaneously, etc. But DC (like Marvel) exists in a Multiverse and this is YOUR reality. The rest of us are lucky enough to get a peek at it. So... get on board or get out of the way!

JAC writes...

My question is about Aquaman...now I have never been oneof those "Aquaman's powers are lame" guys (in fact I contantly chastise my nephew for saying so), and I have been an avid advocate of not giving him the old Superfriends "water bolt" power in the comics...simply because it didnt make any sence given what was already estabolished about the charicter & Atlantis
My question is...why havent you given him this power in your show...now it seems to make less sence not to. If some or most Atlantians can use "hard water" magic, why cant he know just that one "trick," so to speak?

What was Robbie planning to do after Castle Wyvern was to have become the gargoyles' property? Live with them? Go off on his own? Somehow I doubt that sticking with Hakon was what he had in mind. Would he still have been a party to the ransom of Princess Katharine no matter what, or was that only a hasty Plan B after the clan was destroyed?

I know that you're not into "hypothetical" questions, so to speak, but it seems reasonable that Robbie would have had planned himself some sort of future following the attack. Did we see his plans play out, or was he made to change them following the massacre instead?

Melissa writes...

First of all, let me say that how much I have always enjoyed Gargoyles. It was a high point of the afternoon for my younger brothers and me during the original run (while our mother enjoyed having a half hour relatively free of sibling squabbles), and now I'm having a lot of fun introducing the show to my 4-year-old son. So, you see, your show has multi-generational appeal! Thank you for all your hard work and vision.

Secondly, I guess my question is about your writing process. I recently discovered via this site your ideas for the prospective Gargoyles spin-offs. This suggests to me that you write with a, for lack of a better term, "master plan" in mind. Unlike, say, David Milch, who famously writes and re-writes furiously as new ideas occur to him, and actually plans out very little.

1)Would you say this is accurate?
2)If so, do you ever deviate from this plan, if a new and different idea strikes you?
3)Again if so, would you mind providing an example? (A Gargoyles show example would be just fine, I'm not asking for spin-off spoilers here!)

Thank you in advance for your time.

Artemis Fan writes...

In REvelation, when Artemis said "I feel naked, and not in a fun way." what did that mean exactly? Oh, and in Bereft, when Kid Flash woke Artemis up, he said something about a 10 foot thing. What was that supposed to mean?

Joseph B. writes...

First off, I dearly love the show; I've stuck with it ever since January of last year, and I'm really glad I did! Liking the characterizations, the shoutouts and in-jokes and other little details put in there to show that, yeah, you and your guys think about all of this and enjoy your work. And I gotta say that my favorite ship is Wally and Artemis, so I'm pleased with developments there and looking forward to seeing where it goes!

But this is a question site, and I do have some serious questions, mostly on Zeta-Beams, the Watchtower and other Space Tech, being a big space and sci-fi geek:

1. First off, who invented the Zeta-beam tech that's so omnipresent in the series? Is it a native Earth development or an alien import?

1a. After invention comes development: who built the Zeta-beam network (almost certainly WayneCorp, but just checking)?

2. Since there's a usable and practical teleportation system available in the setting, is there any non-hero use of the system (or potential plans to open the system to civilian use)? If not, is there some aspect to the system (like high energy costs) that makes it cost-prohibitive on a mass scale? Or does the Justice League prefer to keep the competitive advantage to themselves?

3. Next up, the Watchtower; gotta start with the basics here: How do people--especially Earth-based astronomers--*miss* seeing an orbiting station the size of a major office building?

4. Assuming that they don't miss it, that argues that the Watchtower isn't alone up there; has Earth-16 started developing a space industry (like we're doing now, with the new company Planetary Resources) with space stations, asteroid mining, solar energy stations, etc.?

4a. And given that energy costs for launchers are the primary prohibiting factors in orbital development and that there are many heroes capable of orbital lifts (Superman, Capt. Marvel, the Green Lanterns, just for starters), has NASA and other organizations and companies asked them for help in getting things to orbit? (Several millions dollars for a one-use rocket that could explode if someone did the math just a little bit wrong, or a nice but smaller check for the Justice League... hmm... decisions, decisions... :) )

And that's it for my questions; I want to say thanks to you for taking the time to look them over and maybe answer them (I recognize that they're a bit oddball compared to your usual fare :D )

Hi, Greg. I have two hopefully-non-spoiler questions for you regarding Zatanna:

(1) Is she a vegetarian on Earth-16?
(2) Is she or has she considered becoming a Dianic Wiccan on Earth-16?

I'm mainly curious because these were two relatively small, but still meaningful aspects of her character in the comics that I thought would be interesting if they carried over into a story of her teenage years.

Derek writes...

The name Dominque Destine sound pretty "draggy"? Was that deliberate as Demona is too masquerading as a human woman?

Zum writes...

I will try to keep this from becoming a spoiler-asking question, hopefully! Though due in part to the… specificity, I don’t know how successful this will be.

You mentioned before that there was undoubtedly going to be (at least one) lgbt character on the show. I won’t ask who, as spoilers, but I guess thatâ€"the ending of the first season really threw me, in a sad way. A sudden parade of heteronormativity at the end of a show season where I had a lot of hope that there might be an lgbt relationship acknowledged by the writing hit pretty hard!

I know that one person does not control all the creative decisions of a tv production by themself, but I guess I wondered if a canonically acknowledged lgbt character was still a thing that WILL happen. Because it is well and good to say “undoubtedly they exist,” but ultimately never acknowledging that within the show does lgbt kids no good! Because saying something like, “obviously chances are someone on the team is lgbt,” is actually really meaningless to us lgbt people if that part of their identity is never shown or confirmed. It just continues to make us invisible in the mainstream media (particularly kid’s media) while still playing up having some diversity, and that does hurt.

Derek writes...

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?

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

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. :)

Derek writes...

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.

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?

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?

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?
