I wanted to ask three related questions if it is not to much trouble.

1. What exactly are the 'lords of order and chaos'? I couldn't really find much information on them (plus this being your universe artistic license could easily rewrite their purpose) and I am curious since two of the characters (Nabu/doctor fate and Klarion) fall into this catagory.

2. What made you decide to make Klarion a lord of chaos? Initially he was a young witch boy from another dimension who happened to be versed in magic (and more than a little bit of a nasty streak) and in a later incarnation he was a rebellious kid from limbo town (witch city under gotham) with a confusingly grey moral chompass.
So I am sorta curious what made you decide to go in the direction of 'lord of chaos' for the Klarion character.

3. If Teekl is Klarions connection to the mortal plain then does that make her Klarion's equivalent to Nabu's helmet of doctor fate?

I appologize if one or more of these questions could be considered spoilers but from looking around, few people have bothered to ask anything in regards to this very interesting character.

Greg responds...

1. I think the terms are fairly self-explanatory. They are personifications of two natural mystic forces in the universe.

2. Clarity, Consistency, Coherence.

3. Yes. In a way.

Someone Not Really Important writes...

please answer my question, and please do not answer my question with another question

In some questions, people asked if we'll see the league's reaction to Robin fighting crime.
In Agendas, we saw that Wonder Woman did not approve of this.
Was the 'spoiler alert'? and if so, is it only a small part of it?

Greg responds...

In "Agendas", you did NOT see that Wonder Woman does not approve of Robin fighting crime. LOOK AGAIN.

And I'd love to answer your question - really. But I honestly do not understand it:

"Was the 'spoiler alert'? and if so, is it only a small part of it?"

What does that mean?!

You went to a lot of trouble to preamble this question with a lot of pleases, etc., and then didn't take the time or trouble to clearly state - or even proofread - your question.

So... sorry. But I can't answer it.

How is wonder woman able to stay immortal? In the comics she can't age only when she is on paradise island.

Greg responds...

Exactly.

Hey Greg,

it's known, that to control the phoenix gate, one has to think of a special place and time.
Now, that the gate was released by Goliath, one question popped into my head.
Brooklyn couldn't control the gate during his Time Dancer adventures.
But could it be that his subconscious mind influenced the gate's „direction"?
Could the gate (or rather the phoenix) have probably sensed his feelings like fears, inner conflicts or wishes?
Or did the phoenix just follow its own reasons without noticing such things?

By the way … I liked the character of Brooklyn before, but it's due to the Comics (especially Clan building Vol. 2) that he became one of my ultimate favourites. ;)

Greg responds...

Mostly, the Phoenix is the Phoenix. Beyond that, we're talking SPOILER REQUEST. NO COMMENT.

Hi! I'm a big fan of Young Justice! and I have a few questions(well,opinon questions,but a question is a question.)Thank you.

1.Why is Kid Flash considerably slower than Flash?
2.Out of the 4 pairings that were created in the first season,which one was your favorite?
3.If Wolf and Sphere(In super-cycle mode)were to travel the entire way around the earth, which one would win?
4.If you had to choose a battle between the season 1 team,who would fight who?
5.Name your favorite line from Young justice.

Greg responds...

1. It has to do with the nature of their different origins on Earth-16.

2. Do you mean romantic pairings? I don't have a favorite.

3. You mean in a race? Sphere. By a lot.

4. What?

5. I'm not sure I have just one. Maybe, "Dude, that's your sister!"

So far in the Young Justice series, Superman's only weakness as we've seen thus far is exposure to green Kryptonite. What other weaknesses does Superman have which haven't been shown but can be confirmed for sure in Earth-16 continuity? And would those same weaknesses affect Superboy in a similar manner (considering he's half human as it is shown that green kryptonite hurts him on somewhat of a reduced level)?

Greg responds...

I've never understood where people got the notion that Superboy was less effected by the Kryptonite. I've seen that sequence over and over, and I just don't get it.

Anyway, Superman and Superboy don't have any other specific weaknesses that I can think of. But in general, our versions of both characters are not as all-powerful as other versions have been. So lots of things can hurt them.

Superman has fairly massive (how should I put this), um, 'ultimate invulnerability', i.e. ultimately there's not a lot - besides Kryptonite - that can do a lot of permanent damage to the guy. I think the best example is the bomb that destroyed Malina Island. It hurt him, knocked him unconscious, but ultimately he was physically fine.

Superboy is not quite as tough. I can't seem him surviving that blast at point blank range the way Superman did. But as we've seen time and time again, though there's plenty that can knock him down and/or out, there isn't much he can't walk away from ultimately.

How far in her pregnancy is Iris as of Bloodlines?

Greg responds...

Very unfar. She missed one period by enough days to take a pregnancy test.

Hi Greg i'm a HUGE young justice fan, I was wondering if there is any specific reason Artemis cut her hair in season 2?

Greg responds...

Um, split ends?

Look, it's been five years, in that amount of time, folks occasionally want a change.

Laura 'ad astra' Sack writes...

Auld Acquaintance. Still happy.

Shorts:
Plastic Man- hee hee New Teen Titan backwards in time costume changes! Starfire has to do a Lady Godiva to coer her naked costume ;) (Toy Wonder- the nerd in my got it, rest of team- nope)

Q1 "He called us 'kids'" was that Batman managing to get a hint on in a funny way? Poor command or subconscious resistance?

The team's psychic link must make things a little easier for the animators...and dubbers.

Q2 Sphere/cycle is a 'her'?

Q3 The Light's cause is described. How would Klarion fit in or even find interesting to watch?
What was Atom dissecting? More Starro?

Lovely misdirection with Reddy,Roy & Dinah- even if knew it was coming.

Nice hanging of lantern on the speed of the cure tech 'small miracle'

M'gan's resorting to form against uncle convinced me he knew and thought it nothing odd- like the 'game'. With all information you chose to share on the Martians I wonder why we haven't seen him in that form at some point.
Wonderful raproachma between the supes.

Equally nice, though less obvious, is the body language between Roy, Ollie and Dina. That's family...makes what comes later a bigger shock.

I missed the implication that Guardian was a clone too.

Not to the mystery of the 16 hours..

Greg responds...

Q1 - Poor command on Klarion's part.

Q2 - Yes, that was established in "Disordered".

Q3 - I'll leave that to your imagination/interpretation, though it seems pretty clear to me where he's finding his fun.

Q3a - Yes, more Starro.
