YOUNG JUSTICE: INVASION: ISSUE: 21: "Players: Chapter Two: Directly to Jail": On Sale: NOW!
YOUNG JUSTICE: INVASION: ISSUE: 21: "Players: Chapter Two: Directly to Jail": On Sale: NOW!
Hey gang, I'm back from Ashland. Had a great time. Saw some great plays, particularly "ALL THE WAY", a brilliant piece about LBJ, written by Robert Schenkkan (writer of The Kentucky Cycle - and a Star Trek actor to boot).
And, in the meantime, issue 21 of our companion comic book hit the stands yesterday! It's part two of our six part magnum opus that introduces our comic book readers to the cast of Invasion. It features some gorgeous art by Christopher Jones, and I'm fairly proud of the writing as well. Check it out online or wherever comic books are sold!
YOUNG JUSTICE: INVASION: EPISODE: 210: "Before the Dawn": Premieres!
YOUNG JUSTICE: INVASION: EPISODE: 210: "Before the Dawn": Premieres: this Saturday, October 13th as part of Cartoon Network's DC Nation block. (It repeats Sunday too.) Check local listings for times.
Keep in mind, this tenth episode of Season Two was plotted before we knew if we'd get the second half of the season. Once we got that pick-up, we assumed this would be our hiatus episode. Instead, we took the break after 207 (which was a great and exciting stopping point, so no complaints). But nothing changed about our story in 210. This is a significant episode on every level: plot, character and LOTS of action. Don't miss it!
I'm posting this reminder a couple days early, because I'm leaving this afternoon to head up to Ashland, Oregon for the Shakespeare Festival. But believe me, my DVR is set to record both YJ and Green Lantern.

I saw your latest episode today "Alienated".I was wondering if Kaldur'ahm and his dad are both called Black Manta or is Kaldur'ahm under another identity.
Greg responds...
There are times when Kaldur is intentionally posing as/standing in for his father, in which case, he's actively trying to fool the opposition into calling him Black Manta (or Manta for short). Other times, no such subterfuge is being attempted, and he's generally referred to as .... drumroll... Kaldur'ahm, i.e. his name. Some folks still refer to him as Aqualad, of course, which is natural.
Superboy Fan writes...
Quick question what made you decide to make superman and superboy's relationship like brothers instead of father and son; no problem with it it just seems odd, since it changed the already established "father/son" dynamic? In season 1 batman says to superman "the boy needs his father" and in alienated superman calls superboy "little brother" and in the comics they were played off as 'Cousins'.
Greg responds...
I can't speak for the comics, at all.
But I think the whole father/son thing was part of the problem for Superman. When he readjusted his thinking (sometime during the time skip) to regard Superboy as a little brother, it all straightened out fairly easily for both of them.
Ultimately, I believe in a Superman who isn't perfect, but is deep-down, fundamentally, a good guy. He may not have been ready to 'parent' a clone that was created without his knowledge or consent, but he could be a big brother to that clone.

Dear Greg, love the show and I was wondering do the different colors of the Kroloteans sash's signify rank or something else.
Greg responds...
Yes.
Anonymous writes...
1) Lobo sure seems to like using the word 'frag'. Is the English equivalent of that word a certain four letter swear word with the letters 'e' and 'r' tacked on at the end?
2) Is Artemis physically stronger than Wally?
Greg responds...
1. I honestly don't know what word you're referring to. Seriously. But "frag" means die or kill, but it's also a cuss word.
2. Probably not.
J writes...
One thing i forgot in the Adam question earlier did the officers understand anything he said or was the translation just for Sardath and Alanna?
Greg responds...
They were not part of M'gann's link.
