It is of earth shattering import that we all know:

That kid sitting in the booth at Bibbo's (not Blue Beetle or Bumblebee) at the begining of Alienated... how old was he?

The guy who tried to shoot Lobo in Secretary-General Tseng's office (but Lobo blocked the barrel with his finger), how many times has he eaten corn in his life? Please list by types of corn.

Could you give a detailed description of every last time Batgirl has ever stubbed her toe? Ignoring occurrences taking place on Tuesdays that fall on odd numbered dates (for obvious reasons).

The guy who comments that G. Gordon Godfrey thinks the League is working with the aliens during a tour of the Hall of Justice at the begining of Alienated. Does his Earth 11 counterpart have a good relationship with her mother?

Lastly... Where are my car keys?

Thank you.

1. How did Count Vertigo retain his diplomatic immunity after openly unleashing giant mutant plants on the world for a huge ransom? Surely the international political fallout would force Vlatava to revoke it, or risk starting a war with one or more nations. I certainly can't see the USA turning a blind eye to a nation who had one of their diplomats openly committing what amounts to terrorist acts on American soil.

2. Who created the Kobra Venom? At the end of Drop Zone Brain says they can reverse engineer it, which I assume means it wasn't Brain. Is Kobra a scientist, or does he have a minion who is, and they created it?

3. Did the Team ever find out that Miss Martian mindblasted them into unconsciousness in Image? I realise this might be a spoiler request, but with the five year skip I'm not sure whether it was ever intended that it was going to be addressed.

Voice Actor fan writes...

Hi Mr Weisman, I read your response a while back about how you pay your voice actors for their roles and after watching the episode 3 of season 2 I realized something. I noticed that Aquaman is voiced by Phil Lamar who previously voiced Green lantern John Stewart in Justice League, where as you have Kevin Michael Richardson voicing him. I was just wondering if you were aware of the fact and if, when first auditioning actors, thought about getting some of the previous actors to reprise their previous roles. I know that in some of the direct to DVD movies some of the former cast from previous works did voice the same character again.

It's May 18th and I got out of a final about two hours ago. I had been agonizing over it since I got home. But then I saw your heads-up for the 4th episode of Invasion (http://www.s8.org/gargoyles/askgreg/search.php?rid=956), and let me just say, good sir, that made my day.

Right now I am buzzing with excitement, I feel giddy and I can't wait until I can catch this episode. Saturday could not possibly come any sooner. Here's to a wonderful new season~

Charly writes...

Was the "shazam" from Auld Aquaintance a reused sound from an earlier episode?

SpazzyLazzy writes...

Just a couple questions:

1. Are Lagoon Boy's puns/slang something common to where he came from (I assume some city-state in Atlantis), or is it a style of speech unique to himself?

2. Seeing as Martians' shapeshifting occurs at a cellular level (as Miss M demonstrated in Image), does that mean they're "immune" to certain human diseases like AIDS?

Thanks in advance!

Hi,
At the near end of "Alienated", when that massive, nuclear level explosion went off (the alien bomb), is it safe to assume that Aquaman and Wonder Woman would of been disintegrated if they didn't manage to escape in time?

Hello =) I love your show, and loved it even more since Wonder Woman and Wonder girl got a little bit more screentime, yet not as much as the superfamily or batfamily does, but still it is pleasant to watch!

Now i have got a couple of question:

1: What exactly is Cassie's powerset? I read somewhere you went with the Zeus's daughter origins. Is she as powerful as Conner Kent? Are her powers growing up as time goes by?
On a scale from 0 to 10, where are WW and WG?

Keep up the great work guys =)

Hi Greg,

Although on your show, Superman is not portrayed as the all-powerful space jesus that most people are used too (and some love!), is he still the most durable to harm when directly compared to the other league members?
Is he, in your opinion, still the one that can take the most hits and keep on going?

I'm asking because it's kinda a main trait of his, being the "Man of Steel" and all! :)

(Judging by the amount of questions you have to get through, you can answer this one with a quick yes or no if you like!!!)

Thanks

Hey Greg,
At the end of Spectacular Spider-Man, Norman going into costumed crime is public knowledge. The question is, how many people know about his strength enhancing formula, Globulin Green and how it affects people? Norman showed his family (Emily and Harry) and Donald Menkin; and by extension Peter and Gwen know about since Harry told them about the formula and what it does to people. Is the Gobulin Green formula public knowlege in New York City? Or is it one of the only secrets the Osborn family has about Norman goblining it up?

I was curious if you were able to provide a full list of the Zeta Tube designations. I only ask because I keep track of it for my own fanfictions, and I can't have some characters enter the cave in a story because I don't have thier code, and I don't want to be inaccurate. I research everything before I actually start a story, but some of the codes are just unknown as of right now.

If you brought the characters power levels back to their first apperances does that mean Wonder Woman has that neck problem?-in her original comic amazons could be rendered unconcious by a blow to the back of the neck.

Young Justice Fan writes...

Hey Greg -- big fan of Young Justice and especially the Season 2 time skip. I found that Season 2 has colored my view of Season 1. The Season 1 episodes seem more poignant -- almost tragic in hindsight, knowing where some of the characters end up. But seeing a character like Robin grow up is like watching a nephew get older. One second they're a toddler, and a few blinks later they're 18 -- time flies!

I'm also impressed by the fact that the early YJ episodes are actually better in the context of the entire series. I find that many serial shows negate their earlier episodes when mysteries are solved and long-running plotlines come to a head. Young Justice is definitely NOT one of those shows.

Anyway, I remember reading an interview in which you stated you had about 7 months of development time on Young Justice. Here's my question:

1) How much of the series (Season 1, 2 and more) was conceived during this phase (plotting, characterization, designwork) and how much came after you got the greenlight?

Thanks -- you and your crew rock!

Hey Greg, in the comics Icon had his own spaceship. I was wondering why, when the 6 (well, 8) leaguers go to stand trial on Rimbor, they have John Stewart create a ship from light instead of using Icon's ship? I suppose a few possibilities are that he doesn't have a ship on Earth-16 (although the line about him being familiar with interstellar law implies that he probably does have one), or that it isn't big enough for 8 people. Anyway, I was just curious to see if you had an official explanation. Thanks for taking the time to answer!

Mr. Greg Weisman,

I'd like to say that as much as I respect the old DC cartoons shows (the ones which were collectively known as the DC Animated Universe), I feel that Young Justice has, thus far, done MUCH, MUCH better in many ways (which would be too much for me too list). I am enjoyed the fact this parallel DC Universe, better known as Earth-16, is similar to the mainstream DC universe, and yet, you are always finding numerous ways to create so many unique twists in the characters and the storylines. It makes it very exciting to watch. I'll let you know that, as I might have said in some postings, that I am continuously praying to God every night that Cartoon Network be very generous to you and renew Young Justice for future seasons. A show as good as Young Justice should never, EVER, end.

Thanks for taking the time to read about how I feel about Young Justice so far. As always, keep up the great work!

Why does it take 5 years for the Krolotean to get to Earth?

Tymiko writes...

1. Although he's amoral and generally has a commitment to self-preservation, why did Puck return to help Xanatos against Oberon "against [his] better judgement"?

Was it simply because he was impressed by Xanatos' choice to have him serve him for life instead of being granter a wish? I considered this, but then I thought it unlikely that Owen would have left Xanatos in the first place instead of returning after some consideration to stand at David's side.

2. Why DID David Xanatos choose Puck as a life-long servant instead of a wish? Wasn't he after immortality?

Tymiko writes...

I noticed in another series of children's books called The Sisters Grimm that the author, Michael Buckley, also had Puck as a main character, only he has the form of a 12 year old and seems to have the mindset of one. He also has a pair of pink insect wings (despite still being a shape-shifter) that he isn't ashamed of at all.

He's written in a way that makes me believe he could have been your version of Puck at a younger age, though he is considered in that series to be the literal child of Oberon and Titania (Oberon's children, haha).

What's more is that King Oberon and Queen Titania live in Manhatten, New York City. I can't help but wonder if there's some of the Gargoyle show's influence at work here.

1. Were you aware of this series and its similarities?

2. Did you ever exchange words with Michael Buckley?

3. Do you think it's possible he watched your show, Gargoyles, or more likely that it was a coincidence?

Tymiko writes...

Your rendition of Puck really rekindled an interest of fairy lore in me, especially since I love tricksters and their amoral personalities that make them so complex. I love how you never know if they'll do something 'good' or 'bad' to someone else simply on a whim, and you portrayed that so well.

I read a previous answer of yours to someone else that said you didn't want to label Puck, Oberon, and Titania as 'faeries' because of the pejorative connotations that the word has. I realize and empathize with you about how fairies are often thought of as nothing more than pretty little girls with butterfly wings or something to that effect, who wave magic wands to grant wishes and always do good. Makes me sick.

1. Is that why you didn't have Puck, Oberon and Titania portrayed with fairy wings despite their status in their original play?

2. If so, why bother to have Puck fly around at all, let alone with fairy dust trailing behind him?

There's a show I recently learned of called Durarara!! in which a Dullahan (technically a sort of fairy) comes to Tokyo to find her missing head, taking the form of a black-wearing motorcyclist and transferring her headless horse's spirit into a pitch black motobike. To hide the fact she has no head, she wears a full helmet and tries to blend in with the city, acting as a transporter and courier for gangs and info brokers, forcing fans to reconsider their initial mental image of a typical fairy.

I think if you had recognized that Puck and the others were Fae, it just might have saved the Fae's tainted, modern day reputation, considering how well-known and admired the Gargoyles show is. However, I understand respect the choices you made, and it was pretty much obvious who they were in the long run.

Anonymous writes...

The episode "Alienated" explains that the Justice League first came together to stop a threat from an alien race of energy beings called the Appellaxians. Do these beings exist only in this specific DC universe? Why did they come to Earth in the first place? What kind of abilities did they possess that made them so dangerous and powerful?

Kit Walker writes...

I've checked the archives, including using what I thought to be relevant search terms, but I didn't come up with anything, so if I missed someone asking this before, I do apologize.

That said, I was curious as to what one work you would put on your résumé, if you had to. Like for whatever reason, you could only put forth one work as, "This is me. This is what Greg Weisman brings to your table, what I can do for you." What work would that be, and why? (Yes, I'm one of those who are insanely curious about the minds of the creators I admire, and how they work. :) )

I know there has been a lot of attention to what was whispered in Fox's ear.

I'm not going to ask what it was, I want to know if we have seen the topic of said whisper or an allusion to said topic in the series via show or comic.

Ex: if the whisper was about working with the gargoyles, was their moving back to the castle a move that would have later been revealed to be related to the whisper.

Im not looking for a revealing answer, just a yes the topic has been shown or a no the topic has not been shown yet.

JE writes...

Hey Greg, big fan here! First I'd like to say that, though unexpected (and probably because of that), I really liked the time skip. I was REALLY hoping to see Tim Drake, but I thought it would take too much time and maybe the series wouldn't make it. Seeing Nightwing too is great, and the relationship the 2 'robins' have is awesome! I was very pleased with the way each Robin was approached! Hoping to see more!
So, I have a few questions, and I'm not really sure if they are spoilers because they're tricky, unclear things that may or may not be explained in the future. If they turn out to be spoilers, I sincerely apologize.
1. Does Ra's al Ghul know Batman's secret identity like he does in the comics? What about Vandal Savage (in Justice League: Doom he did, I don't know if he does in the comics)?
2. Does The Light know Roy Harper's secret identity? I'm guessing they do, but then why haven't they found out Green Arrows?
3. Are you involved in the writing of the tie-in comics?
I like the Light being so subtle, but don't they consider knowing their enemies identites as a means to destroy or at least having advantage over them? The classic 'hurt the loved ones' move in case they're desperate? It probably wasn't their plan and it turned out well against Kaldur! I would certainly consider it! Thanks!

Zergrinch writes...

Hi Greg:

I have a few questions that pertain particularly to Amazo. As I believe his story is over, I'm hoping none of these questions will run afoul of the spoiler rules.

1. Amazo's powers appear to be based on technology (when he replicated the Canary cry, there was a sonic cannon in his mouth. Given this, would he have been able to replicate powers that are hard to replicate with technology, such as the Green Lantern ring, Martian Manhunter's telepathy (he didn't mind-read Superboy's intentions when he was accessing Martian Manhunter), or Zatarra's incantations?

2. It was never shown on-screen, but does Amazo also have the attendant weaknesses when he is accessing a specific hero (say, Kryptonite to Superman or fire to Martian Manhunter)?

3. Given that Professor Ivo was revealed to be a Light agent, why didn't he build more Amazos to do all that work on Rimbor? Wouldn't it have been easier to do so, than to try to infest the League and the Team?

4. The Amazo display in the Hall of Justice museum (in Alienated) has an intact head. Is this a replica of the original? If it is a benign replica, why is it shown in a disassembled state?

Thanks!

First thing's first: give credit where credit is due. Congratulations on the completion of Season 1. What an action packed final two episodes! I was very disappointed when CN decided not to air them back to back. I was literally sitting on pins and needles for a week between "Usual Suspects" and "Auld Acquaintance." The revelations, the fight sequences, the plot! Everything was incredible. You and your entire team deserve a pat on the back.

Now, onto Season 2. I'll admit, after the opening segment, I was completely thrown for a loop. I did not expect a time skip like that. A few days, possibly. 5 years, absolutely not. I had believed that it would be way to soon to make that kind of a risky move. So when I saw it happen, I was naturally very worried. Now, three episodes in, I am pleased to say that I have officially been drawn into the new season and am anxious to see where the story goes from here.

I suppose the concern came from my love of all things Dick Grayson. He is my favorite hero of all time. It's been a long time since we've seen a young Dick tackling the streets of Gotham as Robin the Boy Wonder (last series that covered Dick as Robin for an extended period of time was "The Batman"). Seeing him advance to Nightwing so soon made me nervous, seeing as he usually becomes less of a focus whenever Tim Drake comes onto the scene. There were so few Dick moments last season (well, in comparison to the others, at least) that I didn't want to see who I believe is the best DC character get shoved to the sidelines too soon, but seeing as he's Team leader, obviously not gonna happen.

So, onto my question: Were you prepared for the audience's reaction to Season 2? Or has all the negativity towards the time skip surprised you?
