Would you ever consider doing rambles about YJ like you did for Gargoyles?

Greg responds...

Maybe... someday in the DISTANT future.

Does Sportsmaster have a favorite daughter?

Greg responds...

No. He may think that Jade has slightly more common sense, but let's give him credit for this much as a parent: he holds both his offspring in equal measure of adoration. (That is, pretty much none.)

Sorry for the multiple posts in a row...I would have put this question in with the first, but the rules say to make seperate posts for differant topics (but I swear this is the last one for today) so here goes:
What was the reasoning behind not giving Artemis the "Tigress" persona, whether or not she eventually becomes a villianess...

Was it to keep at least one thing true to her origional character? Brcause that was her name when you wrote about her and you dont like other peoples ideas? You just like the name better? Other reason?

Personally, I usually detest the idea of writers making hero monikers rxactly the same or similar to given names...but im also a HUGE Greek mythology buff, so I dont mind it much this time, im just curious about your (was it your...?) decision.

Thank you for all of your time spent.

Greg responds...

By now, I assume your question is moot.

Hi Greg,

I had a quick question. The gargoyles in your gargoyles universe go to sleep during the day and have no control over it. I've learned that Elisa and Goliath become an official couple, but I am curious about the couple seeing much of each other.
If Goliath is "forced" to sleep during the day and Elisa works most nights. When does the couple get to spend time when they are not on duty protecting the world? Wouldn't this put a strain on the relationship emotionally?

I didn't see this question anywhere. Forgive me if it has been asked.

Greg responds...

Keep in mind, Elisa sleeps during the day too. Granted, she has more flexibility, but how is this really any different from any two people working the nightshift. For that matter, how is it that different from any two people who both have dayshift jobs. I'm not staying there's no stress or strain involved, only that it doesn't seem that atypical. There's plenty of stuff that DOES make Elisa and Goliath's relationship atypical, but this seems like the least of their worries.

I mean I would think it would be harder for a couple when one works dayshift and one works nightshift. Then it REALLY seems to me like they'd never see each other.

I didnt include these questions in my last post, lest the entire thing get deleted again, as they may encroach "spoiler reqest" territory maby a smidge further...

1. WAS there an origional "James" Harper? (its establised that hes a clone, but not of whome).
2. Did he (Guardian) ever find out who he was really working for?
3. Are he and Dublex still in contact?

Thanks again.

Greg responds...

1. There was. But OUR Jim Harper is a clone of Jim's descendent Roy Harper, not of the original Jim Harper.

2. Yes.

3. SPOILER REQUEST. NO COMMENT.

Why do you guys just love to kill Artemis and bring her back?

Greg responds...

You make it sound like she's the only one we've done that to.

Weird question but:
Did Artemis lose her "abs" over the 5 year time-skip? Her original character design had two lines on her abdomen to indicate abs, but they weren't present in Depths. Was this intentional?

Greg responds...

You'd have to ask character designer Phil Bourassa.

1.Near the end of Depths we see the current team and Zatanna and Rocket at the cave grieving over the death of Artemis. Can you tell us who on the current team knew Artemis?
2. What are Wally and Artemis studying at college?
3. Was Artemis a known sidekick during the 5 year time gap to the public? I'm just wondering because Superboy didn't appear to be in Salvage to the guard.

Greg responds...

1. They all did. Not necessarily as Teammates, but they've ALL socialized.

2. I think Wally's double majoring in Physics and Chemistry (or something like that). I like to think Artemis is majoring in Comparative Literature. But Brandon and I have not discussed any of this, and I wouldn't want to commit without conferring with him.

3. No, to your question, but I really don't understand your "because..." statement at all.

Did you have Beatrice and Benedict in mind when you created the Wally-Artemis dynamic?

Greg responds...

Shrug. I suppose it'd be cool to answer yes, but the truth is - and I'm not pretending otherwise - it's a pretty common trope, and mostly what we had in mind was Wally and Artemis and tracking how they'd react as individuals.

I'm a huge fan of Young Justice, and the last episode, Depths, is definnitely my favorite episode this season, and possibly my favorite overall. However, there were a few things that weren't quite clear to me.

1. When Artemis "dies", Superboy says he can't hear her heart beating. Artemis' heart was obviously still beating though, so how was it that Superboy couldn't hear it?

2. Why does Wally know all the details of Nightwing, Kaldur, and Artemis' undercover mission? I know he's one of Nightwing and Kaldur's oldest friends and Artemis' boyfriend, but it doesn't really seem necessary for him to know everything, especially with the rest of the Team and the League still in the dark.

Greg responds...

1. Her heart was greatly slowed by the Juliet pill she munched down on.

2. ASKED AND ANSWERED.

Why did Nightwing preform CPR on Artemis when she appeared to have a stab wound? Superboy, Miss Martian, and even the Black Manta Soldiers didn't seem to think it strange.

Greg responds...

Her heart had stopped.

I want to ask something and it's really random, but stil:
I was watching Homefront and I saw that there are no individual showers, I mean one in one cabin. There are just many in one room. Why? XD

Greg responds...

It's a locker room shower. Most that I've been in don't have 'cabins'. There's a girls' locker room and a boys' locker room, though I forget which was in Homefront. Of course, each bedroom has it's own private bathroom too.

Something just hit me. If the featured team was Gamma squad, then what were the other team(s) [members] doing during the mission? [ep. 207 "Depths"]

Stuff.

Hammer writes...

First off, GW, I have to applaud you for such a well crafted series. I can't applaud your team enough for this series. Here's hoping we get favorable news on Season 3 soon!

As for questions:

#1.) We know Wonder Woman and Red Tornado were part of the All Star Squad. Were any other members of today's Justice League in the All Star Squad (such as Captain Atom) ?

#2.) In regards to the countdown:
#2A.) To the best of your knowledge has there ever been any characters you counted on your countdown that didn't show up in the series due to time constraints?
#2B.) Are characters from your countdown counted if they are mentioned or are they required to show up in an episode to be counted? (IE In the episode Terrors, Headmaster is mentioned but doesn't show up. Is he counted?)
#2C.) Are characters counted even if we don't know we've seen them yet or are they only counted once we (generally) know who they are (IE Were both Speedy and Red Arrow counted in episode 1 even though we met "Clone Speedy" in episode 1 and didn't see the real Speedy until episode 26?).
#2D.) In the countdown, are you currently (up until episode 26) counting Guardian and Clone Guardian as two characters or one?

Greg responds...

1. Doctor Fate.

2. What countdown? I'm going to assume you mean my list of characters, cuz I can't figure out what else you might be referring to. (But how is that a countdown?)

2a. ASKED AND ANSWERED.

2b. No, a mention doesn't count.

2c. These seem like two separate questions. Characters are counted if they've appeared, whether or not you recognize them as such and/or they are named. Characters do NOT count until they appear. So Clone-Roy was counted from episode 101, but Original-Roy wasn't counted until episode 126.

2d. When has the Golden Age Guardian appeared?

I loved Dick in Depths. I also loved the deep cover angle. It was great that Ms. M wasn't afraid to go down there and really give it to the Manta Men. And she handled that rocket like a pro! I thought the CPR was believable and didn't think Dick was too rough with pumping Artemis' chest. The flashback sequence was great where we're shown that Aqualad wasn't really penetrating Artemis with his sword and that she had something in her mouth that made her heart stop. Bravo, team! ...I'm gonna go take a shower.

Greg responds...

Thanks. It's a bit of a work-out, watching this show, isn't it?

Hehe, I forgot to ask something, I mean, Hello, Louisa!*smaks forehead*(it's your fault I can't stop doing this now, you know). Is Krolotean language really a language, or just some random ramblings? Just curious XD

Out of show, it's mostly sound effects.

Would you say that as of Season 2, Dick and Artemis have a close relationship resembling that of Dick and Donna's in the comics? (By this I mean that they love each other in a platonic way)

Greg responds...

I guess.

First of all, I'd like to say thank you for being part of such a great production. Young Justice is amazing!
Here's my question:
1a) In Depths, why is it that Nightwing chose Artemis for the secret mission?
b) Wouldn't have M'gann been the better choice, as she could change her appearance at will thus cancelling the need to ask Zatanna for a favour which could have compromised the mission?
c) Was it because he and Artemis are closer and he trusts her more?
Thanks!

Greg responds...

1a. SPOILER REQUEST. NO COMMENT.

1b. See above.

c. No.

When Artemis was given the Glamor Charm, it is explained from the perspective of everyone except Nightwing, Aqualad, and Kid Flash that she is an entirely different person now. Considering it involved Zatanna's magic, wouldn't it be a major problem if Artemis were to have a run-in with either Psimon or Klarion? After all, Kalrion previously demonstrated he had far superior magic than Zatanna, and Psimon's telepathy cannot be fooled at all. I mean, was EVERYTHING put into consideration before Artemis was given the charm?

Greg responds...

SPOILER REQUEST. NO COMMENT.

Greg,

Hopefully this doesn't delve into spoilers territory, but I was hoping you could clear something up for me:

1) Bart does not know the effect of his actions on the future, correct? I mean that at the end of "Bloodlines", he did not know that he has not successful in changing the future in the manner he intended.

2) What was Bart's plan for after he saved Barry? Did he intend to live with the Garricks, or did he want to join the team? I'm assuming he knew he would be stuck in the past(sorry if this is a spoiler question).

3) In Bart's time (the 2050s), is 2-way time travel possible? I mean before the accident or whatever they were trying to prevent.

Thanks Greg!

Greg responds...

1. He can only guess.

2. I'm not sure he had all the specifics figured out. Beyond that, it is indeed a SPOILER REQUEST. NO COMMENT.

3. Though the question itself isn't problematic, I don't know how to answer it without SPOILERS.

YJ is Amazing writes...

I just want to say Young Justice is amazing. I loved Season One but Season Two is so intense and as equally amazing. Anyway my questions are:

1. What is Barbara's relationship with Tim and Dick? I know before you said that Dick and Babs were best friends 'with potential'.
2. How do Dick and Tim feel towards Babs? Like does Tim see her as an older sister?
Thank you for taking the time to read :)

Greg responds...

1. SPOILER REQUEST. NO COMMENT on Dick and Barbara. Barbara and Tim's relationship is sister-brother.

2. Is this a different question?
