Hello Greg, your show is awesome! I have some questions that I hope you can answer at some point in the future:
1) At the end of "Depths", when everyone is in the cave, it looks like Barbara is not wearing sunglasses (or anything else to hide her identity). Batman wants to keep Tim and Dick's identities secret, so why not Batgirl?
2) You've said in a previous response on here (see? I checked!) that there is "minimal awareness" of life on Mars. If this is the case, what is the justification for the government spending hundreds of millions of dollars on a satellite to communicate with Mars? I have a feeling you're going to answer "to increase awareness."
3) As an aerospace enthusiast, I was pleased with the relative accuracy with which you portrayed Cape Canaveral and the Kennedy Space Center. I only saw 2 "inaccuracies"- the launch pads aren't right on the water like that and one person (Carol) would not be able to speed up a launch. I can easily forgive both because they were plot-driven, and also because this is technically an alternate earth. No question on this, just a comment. Nice work by your team and the artists! The rocket was quite accurately drawn.
4) Does the Justice League vote on new members at regular intervals (for example, once per year)?
Best wishes!
1. Batgirl is 18 and can make that decision for herself. But the other aspect to it, is that Barbara Gordon doesn't have a famous (foster) father, that paparazzi (attempt to) follow around.
Dear Greg,
Watched Depths today, and I mean the following phrase with the utmost respect;
GREG WEISMAN YOU MAGNIFICENT BASTARD!!!! I loved the end of that episode!!!! I mean you really had me going there with Artemis' death, but then the reveal that she's alive & Kaldur's a mole for them? Best "never-saw-it-coming" moment in animation. EVER. Thank you, thank you so much.
Onto other things I enjoyed in this episode, thank you for explaining why Conner & Megan broke up. Personally, I side with Conner, she is venturing into Psimon's territory with her interrogations. I also like the subtle bit of Carol wearing purple, very nice. And Tim Curry, oh GOD I love that man as Gordon Godfrey. He is hilarious.
Pleas pass on my praise to everyone involved in that last scene, and I eagerly await next week.
Thanks!! We've got to wait a bit longer than a week. But we'll get there.
Is there a reason for leaving out Superboy and Ms. M from the Team's super secret undercover mission?
I don't see why you guys would choose all of the original members of Team to participate in this mission, except for these two; it would be more understandable if you guys had chosen the original 6, instead of just the 4 to keep the undercover secret from the League and the new Team recruits; seems a little prejudice towards the Martian and half-Kryptonian, lol jk :)
Good episode none the less
Keep up the good work!

1. Is there a reason to include them?
You're putting too much weight on who's original and who is not. This is about Kaldur's secret op that ONLY Nightwing knew about. The fewer who know, the smaller the risk of Kaldur's cover being blown. Artemis was brought on - and brought in - to serve a specific function (or two). Wally's NOT "participat[ing] in this mission", but Artemis wouldn't join the op without letting him in on it. It was a deal-breaker for her. So Wally was only brought in, because Artemis insisted. But the circle is small because it's a need-to-know circle. It's not like these FOUR came up with the plan, but decided to leave Superboy and Miss Martian out. Kaldur and Nightwing came up with the plan, and eventually let Artemis (and Wally) in. But not because they're old friends or something. Nor were Superboy and Miss Martian left out because they're not close to them. And certainly not because they're Martian and half-Kryptonian.
Hi Greg.
Absolutely loved Depths. One of the characters on the show I know the least about is Black Manta.
A few questions about him:
Prior to associating with and joining the Light, was he generally a mercenary, or did he usually pursue personal
objectives?
I noticed the African tribal masks decorating his
quarters. I assume this shows pride in his heritage. But do his motivations for his actions include a desire for revenge for damage done to the continent, past and present, by many nations?
How long have he and Aquaman been enemies?
Thanks for taking my questions.
1. The latter.
2. It's not a primary goal. Self-actualization is more important to him.
3. QUITE some time.
has anyone who worked with you called you a troll? and have you ever intentionally decided to troll fans?
1. Not that I know of.
2. No. (Unless a "smart-ass response" here and there counts as trolling.)
Mr. Greg Weisman,
When you said that "Depths" was the one of most dramatic episodes to date, you were absolutely NOT kidding around! I found this episode to the BEST episode of this first bunch of Season Two episodes. I was extremely happy by the way it mostly turned out, so I'd like to ask two questions.
1. Based on Nightwing's statement about his own leadership, it appears he only started at the beginning of 2015, assuming this is correct. If I'm interpreting this correctly, does that mean that Aqualad's leadership lasted for the entire first four years of the time-skip, and everything that we've learned about Kaldur so far happened during that time?
2. I'm happy that Aqualad was a good guy the ENTIRE time, and I'm sure I'm not the only one. Interestingly, based on the conversation between them, only Nightwing, Artemis and Wally know the truth, and apparently they have for quite some time. Being the leader of The Team I can understand how Nightwing knew, but considering the nature of Aqualad's undercover work, how did Artemis and Wally get involved with protecting Kaldur's cover in the first place?
Thanks for taking the time to read this posting.
1. Kaldur was leader for approximately four and a half years total (including Season One). I'm not sure what you're asking in the second half of the question.
2. They didn't. They were only brought into the loop when Kaldur and Nightwing felt the need to recruit Artemis into their plot/plan/strategy.
Hi Greg more than a question , i just wanted to comment on the scene that Superman tries to save the kronoteans from the explosion, even risking his own life in the process. I must say that was one the best representation of what Superman truly is at his core, a true hero that no matter what will defend all life , even at the cost of his. That was a truly emotional scene , and as a superman fan for manyyears, Thank you for giving probably one of the best moment if not the best moment for him in any medium. Keep up the amazing work all the production team, hopefully we have many years left of stories to come.
Thanks. I liked that moment too.
Anybody know why Young Justice episodes are no longer being added to Cartoon Network On Demand on Time Warner Cable? Who do I have to beat half to death with a sack of moldy gym socks over this? Kari? Kari!?!
I'm sure someone knows, but I'm not that someone.
Kari, who?
Was anyone on the Team besides Zatanna an Authorized Guest before they joined?
Yes.
Is Artemis's glamoured appearance based on a character from DC Comics (and if so, who, of course)?
Well, Tigress.
In the Mount Justice scene at the end of "Depths", who was the girl standing next to Jaime Reyes, and who was the girl being comforted by Barbara Gordon?
I don't remember who exactly was standing next to whom. And I don't have access to the visual here at L.A. Studios. But from memory, the girls in the room were M'gann, Zatanna, Raquel, Cassie, Barbara and Karen.
Hi Greg! Does Dick see Artemis as a dear friend, a sister or anything more? I'm sure he wouldn't do anything to hurt Wally but... after watching "Depths" I don't know what to think.
Dick sees Artemis as a dear friend. A sister of sorts, I suppose, as they're very close, but I'm not sure what the difference is between "sister" (in quotation marks) and dear friend.
I don't see how "Depths" changes that.
Hello Mr. Weisman I have 2 questions:
1. Does Aquaman's telepathy in the show only affect fish life or can it also affect mammals/humans in some way?
2. If Aquaman can affect humans does Black Manta's helmet protect him from telepathy?
1. Can't effect fish. Really only marine mammals.
2. He's not really a human telepath.
No question. Just praise.
I finished watching "Depths" well over two hours ago, and I am still buzzing as if I were on a sugar rush. It was BRILLIANT. BRILLIANT, BRILLIANT, BRILLIANT. Loved it!
I was sure after "Happy New Year!" that if we gave this new season a chance we'd love it. "Alienated" and "Salvage" made me start loving it officially. This episode just sealed it; I am head-over-heels in love with this episode.
Kudos to everyone involved in its creation!
Thank you very much for the praise - and your faith in us.
Wow... That's all I have to say... WOW! What an episode! You promised that it was the most dramatic one to date and you weren't kidding!
This series' writing has been superb since the beginning but you've REALLY kicked it into high gear this season! "Depths" was FLAWLESS! Applause for you and the whole team that bring this show to the small screen!
A lot of things were touched on this week that people have wondered about. Is Kaldar truly bad? What exactly was the reason that Conner broke up with M'Gann, and what was meant by her giving him no choice? (Although I had pretty much guessed that it had to do with her new "interrogation" technique. But who would have thought that M'Gann would have tried to tamper with Conner's mind? No wonder he broke up with her!) Did Nightwing (Robin then, maybe?) ever date Zatanna?
All those little nuances were answered tying off all the loose ends. Something that you rarely see on TV especially in an animated series.
And I have to say that I completely agree with Conner. La'Gann is a jerk. At least to Conner. It's like he just loves to rub it in Conner's face that he's with his ex. Although I think it's just a reflex mechanism. He knows that Conner is major competition for M'Gann's heart, so he's trying to stake his claim to her.
Although I do find it surprising that as close as M'Gann and Conner were that she did pick up with La' Gann so quickly. He may not be a rebound now, but he had to have been at the start. No one falls in love again that quickly after a long term relationship. But who knows? Maybe Martians do?
Q1. How long was it actually between Conner dumping her that M'Gann started dating La'Gann?
I had been wondering as many people had if Kaldar really had turned to the dark side or if it was part of a deep undercover operation. (I'm personally glad that he's not evil! Even though I have to admit that it would have been equally good story telling to have had him really turn. There's noting more dramatic than having someone who was once a teammate; someone who once watched your back to then turn around and try to stab it.)
Once I saw "Alienated" I was for sure he had turned his back on the team especially after the bomb went off, but I always have had doubts since then and these were my reasons:
R1. Kaldar was the most level headed person on the team. It seemed odd that out of everyone he would be the one to go off the deep end.
R2. When you're doing the hero gig, before long you're going to loose a teammate in death. And at its worst it may end up being someone you love romantically. That's just something that you have to be prepared for.
R3. He learning that his father was Black Manta didn't seem like a good enough reason for him to turn either. It wasn't like he didn't know anyone on his own team that was in a similar situation. Both Artemis and Conner have biological connections to villains and mercenaries.
R4. And this is the best one: He warned Nightwing and Superboy of the presence of the bomb and how much time was left before it was to go off. What villain would do that? That had stuck with me ever since I watched that episode. Now I've seen villains call attention to bombs in the past but NO villain ever says how much time is left on the clock to the hero... good to know that you left is some bread crumbs to follow if we were smart enough to pay attention. ^_~.
Q2. What kind of pill did Artemis bite down on that made her heart stop beating?
I also have one question regarding "Alienated" that was brought to the fore in this episode.
Q3. Who was it that set the bomb in "Alienated"?
I always thought that it was Kaldar who set the bomb but was it him or the mysterious "Partner"?
This season is going SOOOOOOOO well! I'm surprised a third season hasn't been announced.
Q4. Are you and your team getting nervous that you haven't been picked back up yet? (I hope by the time you get to my questions that you have been picked up for another season and that the question will me moot.)
It seems to me that if you lost any viewers that they should come back. Some were enraged over the time jump, but more or less because Kaldar, Artemis, and Wally were missing, but since then it's been shown that they are all alive and well and still very much in the game at some level or another. Pretty much the only thing that we missed in not seeing the past 5 years is seeing some of the characters date and Conner's relationship with Superman progress. Which when you think about it isn't all that important. Heroics usually come first, love and family are a close second. Besides the scenes between Wally and Artemis contain enough love to go around. I especially loved seeing them hold hands.
Ohhh! And we got to see Carol Farris today! Very nice. Don't know if she's in a relationship with Hal on Earth 16 or not but it was nice to see her anyway.
I just have one more thing to say. I'm still waiting VERY patiently to see Lois Lane, Perry White, and Jimmy Olsen. Still waiting... I just hope I don't have to wait much longer. ^_~.
"Did Nightwing (Robin then, maybe?) ever date Zatanna?" As established in issue 20 of our companion comic, yes.
Q1 - SPOILER REQUEST. NO COMMENT.
Q2 - It's called "Friar Lawrence Compound".
Q3 - If you managed to see Episode 210 on iTunes, then you know. If not, it's a SPOILER REQUEST. NO COMMENT.
Q3a - I don't know how you could think it was Kaldur. It was the Partner.
Q4 - I can't comment on this.
Perry, Lois and Jimmy have all appeared in the comic. Lois was just a fantasy cameo, but Perry's had a few BG appearances, and Jimmy actually has had a small supporting role in our latest issues.
Flat out awesome episode in Depths!!!
Aqualad is the man!
I really really felt for Superboy and I really just want him to move on with his life. Megan and him are young and they are not on the same page anymore. That much is clear. Heartbreak is a part of growing up and I really hope the writers don't just sweep it all under the carpet and just make them all lovely dovey again. It would feel so forced and feels like Lagoon Boy is the one who is being set up as the chum. I think he's a fun character.
keep up the awesome work. This show is really really tops. It treats the heroes with a lot of respect. It is better than the Justice League show some years back which was more about pimping Batman than anything else. I would love to see you and Brandon do a Justice League series.
Thanks. Of course, I'm a big fan of JL and JLU, but I appreciate the kind words.
And we're all about respecting the characters.
I just wanted to tell you I am in love with this show!!!
I have 2 questions.
1. I noticed in S1 in episode Downtime, Black Manta called his troops Gamma Squad, Beta Squad and the new team in Season 2 does the same thing. Was this coincidence? I'm sure if its not I will find out before you get a chance to answer :)
2. If you get a season 3(I know there will be a time skip I'm completley fine with it) how long before the fans will know if it is renewed?
And again thanks for making such a great show I love it!!!
1. It's not a coincidence. Good catch.
2. I can't comment on this.
In Season Two, the average age of the members of the Team seems to have augmented: was this intentional, or it was just a coincidence?
"Augmented"?
It has been confirmed for a very long time that next year there will be a new batman series for DC nation. But recent information says there will also be a new Teen Titans go series[which is supposed to be comedy heavy..not sure how I feel about that. And it looks like its animation went very down]
Anyway my point is next year 2013 if those two shows will be on DC nation block what does that mean for Young Justice? Will DC nation be extended to two hours. Or maybe every week they will switch up the shows?
I can't comment on this.
Can Zatanna Learn Atlantean Sorcery?
Perhaps she could adapt to it. (It hasn't come up.)
On Earth-16, if you had to make an educated guess, which ocean would Atlantis be located on the world map?
Atlantis. Atlantic. Make sense?
Does Mal Duncan have powers like he did in the comics or is he just support staff for the team
The latter.
In invasion how much older did Miss Martian biologically get get biologigly, did she just grow 1 1/4 years or did did she grow 5 years
"biologically get get biologigly"?
Anyway, if we're talking her Martian base form, she matured 5 years divided by 3.
Is G. Gordon Godfrey's "Bonehead List" based on Anderson Cooper's "RidicuList?"
Not specifically. But it's all in that "News Commentator" family.
A few more questions, this time about Bumblebee:
1. Does she only have the two "modes"...regular size & "bee" size, or like Atom, can she be any size in between?
2. do her wings only allow flight at reduced size? Thats the only time weve seen her fly.
3. Why does she have electric "stingers"? Real Bumblebees dont sting. The sonic blasters she used in her origional comics appearance made more sense to me than the newer idea of electrical.
Thanks.
1. In theory, her suit is capable of shrinking to any size, but Atom has put safety locks on it, so that she basically only has one size she can shrink to, at least for the time being.
2. Yes. Wings only show up when she shrinks.
3. And REAL bumblebees have sonic stings?
