Dear Greg.
I am a big fan of your work, in particular Gargoyles, Spectacular Spider-Man and Young Justice, and as an aspiring writer, your technique of plotting, use of foreshadowing and Chekov's Guns are a big influence on me.

Here are a couple of questions:
1. What is your approach to plotting a series?
2. And who are your influences as a writer?

To end this off, I would like to thank you for all of your excellent work in every field you have participated in, and I hope to see further projects from you in the future.

Joe

Greg responds...

Both these questions have been ASKED and ANSWERED many times before. Check out the ASK GREG archives.

But thank you for the kind words.

Greg, DC should let you do a Justice League series based on the New 52. I like the way you write and have a healthy respect for all characters and development of them feels more authentic than anything I saw even in the JL/U series. You don't dumb anything down and treat your audience as intelligent by challenging us to think/react. Thank you for such a great show as Young Justice.

Greg responds...

You're welcome.

Hi Greg!
Thanks for the amazing work on YJ! I was never even into comics before, but after watching episodes with my little brother, I have to admit I'm hooked. So thanks :)

Anyway, just one question: You guys were permitted to continue with Season 2 : Invasion around the beginning of Season 1 I think. So if you hadn't been allowed a Season 2, would Season 1 with a different, finite ending? And once you were granted with S2, did you have to change a lot of plans?

Thanks so much for your time, I can't wait to watch the next episode!

Greg responds...

Nothing would have changed. The plan was the plan.

Aqualad, NOOOOOO!!

1. Is the original Black Manta now a member of The Light?

2. Were there villains in The Light that preceded the seven we saw in season 1?

3. Do any members of The Light know that Kaldur is Black Manta's son? Do they know that father and son are working together?

Greg responds...

1. Yes.

2. No.

3. All of them know. (Although whether Klarion remembers is a legit question.)

3a. Yes.

1) How many issues of the Young Justice companion comic will there be? Is it an ongoing, or is there an issue cap?

2) How many issues plots have you got laid out already? (I won't ask you what they are, I'm just curious how far ahead they've been planned.)

Thanks!

Greg responds...

1. It's ongoing, I assume as long as sales hold.

2. I've JUST finished writing the script for issue #25. Turned it in early this morning. I haven't started on 26 yet, though I have many, many, many story ideas to chose from.

Three questions
1. Does Jaime want to be a dentist?(it's his comic dream job)
2.Since it looks like Jade knew Roy2 was a clone was the flirting just to annoy-a him,b-Artemis,or c-both?
3.Could Red Arrow and Superboy be considred 'brothers' since they were both cloned by the same orginization?

Greg responds...

1. SPOILER REQUEST. NO COMMENT.

2. C doesn't cover it.

3. By Dubbilex's definition, yes.

In 201 Robin, and La'gann appear to think Jaime is talking to himself, but logically could'nt Miss Martian have checked and confirmed the Scarab is sentient.
2- is the scarab named Khaji dal
how long has Jaime been a hero, was it somepoint before the skip or during?

Greg responds...

1. How? And why would she?

2. SPOILER REQUEST. NO COMMENT.

3. During.

Diana writes...

1. How old is Sardath?

2. How old is Alanna?

3. When you're creating the YJ characters, do you think about what ages they are first or do you think about their overall personality/character and then give an appropriate age suited to their traits?

Greg responds...

As of December 31st, Team Year FIVE:

1. Sardath is the human equivalent of a 58-year-old.

2. Alanna is the human equivalent of a nineteen-year-old.

3. The latter, generally.

I have some questions regarding the episode, Earthlings.

1. I noticed there were no subtitles when the Rannian language was spoken. I am curious, what were Adam, Alanna, Sardath and the Rannian police saying in the Rannian language throughout the episode?

2a. Does Sardath know that Alanna has a crush on Adam?

2b. If so, how does he feel about it? Does he accept his daughter's liking for Adam or is he against it or entirely neutral about it?

3. Does Adam have a crush on Alanna as well?

4. Do Rannians age the same rate as humans?

Greg responds...

1.

Alanna: A-dahm! A-dahm! [Adam! Adam!]

Alanna: Ol fao aeli vier qu, A-dahm! [It is good to see you, Adam!]

Adam: Sardath-Cho, Alanna… olf fao Miss Martian, Superboy ul Beast Boy… leps Urth. [Honorable Sardath, Alanna… these are Miss Martian, Superboy and Beast Boy… from Earth.]

Sardath: Lam talsa, "Urth-lingz". Fao A-dahm ililoc qu duss maol ao Apic-Zeta? [Greetings, Earthlings. Did Adam tell you what happened with the Zeta-Beam?]

Science Patrolman: Thom-Ranagari tho faor doh-heger! Vier glusten! [We cannot allow the stranger to escape. Keep searching.]

Science Patrolman: Tomtel! [Don't move!]

Alanna: Duss? Qu ililoc Urth-lingz?! [What? You're speaking Earthling?!]

Sardath: Duss maol? Fao tertel bu ael? [What happened? Is my daughter all right?]

Alanna: Ba sistris qu, Mis Mar-shawn. Su-pear-bo sistris qu emsec… [I'm worried about you, Miss Martian. Superboy is too.] {I think this line might have been cut for time.}

Alanna: Ba lalto onamao ol dol qu wake up! [It would really help if you would wake up!]

2a. It's hard to miss.

2b. SPOILER REQUEST. NO COMMENT.

3. It's hard to miss.

4. SPOILER REQUEST. NO COMMENT.
