Why didn't Tim tell Nightwing about Arsenal's antics? Shouldn't Nightwing know not to send him on covert ops if he's going to blow stuff up?
In that moment, Tim thought he was cutting Arsenal some slack.
Why was Arsenal allowed on the team, he's obviously not mentally stable after his ordeal.
Ah, hindsight.
Being a gay man who has to go out of his way to see even a glimpse of his own existance in mass media, especially in what would be considered for kids (although, I really dont see Gargoyles or Young Justice as "kid shows"), I usually dont try to make those kinds of connections...and all the speculation surrounding Impulse & Blue Beetle kind of felt more like just some fans grasping at straws...but then there was that scene in "true colors" where Beetle elbows Impulse that is HIGHLY remanisant of Artemis doing the exact thing to Kid Flash...
I used to love Impulse in the comic (pre Titan days), and it did kind if seem like he had a man-crush on Batman, and by extention Robin...so I gues its not totally unpressidented (he also seemed to act oblivous when a gil was trying to flirt, which I can totally relate to).
I know next to nothing about Blue Beetle (except that one of my faveorite Leaugers was replaced by some kid), but I thought that one of the major reasons he became a hero revolved arround a dead gilfriend...and didnt he also have girlfriend in Titans? (like I said, I knie nothing about him prior to your show).
I guess my question is...
I know your willing to write a charactor as gay, even if you cant say it out liud (and thank you for that), but are you also willing to portray a, for the most established straight chatactor as having a different orientation?
I had to stop buying Devin Grayson's run of Nightwing...not because I dont like bisexuals (my partner of 7 years has 2 kids), but because I found it extreamly disrespectful to the charactor and the fans, to suddenly alter decades of established charactorization.
Having said that, I did kind always kind of assume Ted Kord and Booster Gold had a thing (they were always together and neither ever had a girlfriend), but never really got my hopes up...and YJ's Blue Beetle and Impulse almost parallel them.
I'm willing in theory if it feels right for the character, particularly in the context of an Earth-16 type scenario, where the choice I've made doesn't necessarily effect or reflect what's going on with the character elsewhere.
http://images3.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20120623231608/youngjustice/images/f/f4/Young_Justice_Invasion.png Who is this Guy/Girl between Robin and Blue Beetle?
This was an early internal development image designed to showcase the second season's NEW characters, that was later used for promotional purposes. It is NOT canon. But from left to right, you have: Wonder Girl (Cassie), Arsenal (Roy), Robin (Tim), Static (Virgil), Blue Beetle (Jaime) and Impulse (Bart).
Hi Greg. Can you tell me what happened to Ocean Master? And was he REAL brother of Aquaman?
I'm not sure what you mean by "REAL" in all-caps. They were brothers, as clearly established in the YJ companion comics.
As to what happened to him, come on, seriously?
SPOILER REQUEST. NO COMMENT.
1. Where did you come up with the idea for a Green Beetle? DId he exist previously?
2. Is the reach responsible for the fall of the martian civilization?
3. Who is the black beetle? Wasn't he Jaime's friend Paco in the comics, is there a reason he isn't?
4. Is the Green Beetle a red, white, or green martian?
5. Why is lex trying to help the reach conquer earth? In the comics he honestly beleives he's trying saving the planet, not doom it...
1. ASKED AND ANSWERED.
2. Assumes facts not in evidence.
3. I think it's pretty clear from the show who Black Beetle is. Why in the world would you think it's Paco?
4. Green.
5. Okay, I'm aware that you wrote up these questions before the end of the series, so I have a question for you: WHY DID YOU WRITE UP THESE QUESTIONS BEFORE THE END OF THE SERIES? What was your hope here, exactly? That I'd get to it before all was revealed and answer "SPOILER REQUEST. NO COMMENT" Or that I'd get to it (more or less) now and simply refer you back to the episodes themselves.
Look, SHAZAM!, I don't mean to single you out, but this is symptomatic of an on-going problem here at ASK GREG. All you've really succeeded in doing is CLOG UP THE QUEUE.
Please, everyone, THINK before posting.
I just wanted to say I really like what you guys have done with the villians in Young Justice. Especially Black Manta, I love the relationship he seems to have with his son, and seems to really love him. Most shows make the bad guys just pure evil and without a care in the world and all villians think the same way. All of them have different personalities so to me it seems more real. I do have one question about Miss Martian. I looked through the forums and didn't see it so if you answered fill free to delete this post!
1. When Miss Martian is not in her true form and having to concentrate on the way she looks like does it take away from her mental abilities or is it like a subconsense thing. I guess what I mean is if she wasn't shape shifting and was in regular form would her mental powers be more focused and more powerful?
Thanks for the show!!! I love watching it, you and your team have done an amazing job with it. I love how the heroes aren't perfect and have faults too, and how the bad guys aren't pure evil(maybe seem to focus on themselves, but not you know trying to blow up the world all the time) Thanks again for all the hardwork!!!
1. Somewhat. As already esttablished in episode 126.
1. I really enjoy the dynamic between Jaime and Bart. I am curious though, why did you decide to make them friends? Since Bart knows Blue Beetle brings on the Reach apocalypse I can easily see Bart wanting nothing to do with Jaime whatsoever. I just want to know your thoughts on this friendship.
2. You've said previously that you have sexualities in mind for the characters. You don't have to name any names, but I was wondering if you perceived any characters as asexual?
1. My thoughts are mostly on screen. The relationship began with Bart trying to get close to Jaime as part of his agenda. Then they became legitimate friends.
2. Probably - in a show with as many characters as YJ has, it seems likely, doesn't it? But I haven't given it much thought.
Hi Greg! I must say, I'm absolutely loving the new season of Young Justice, especially the new aditions to the Team. I have two questions, though:
1. How long before Jason's death and Tim joining the Team? I got the feeling he hasn't been around for more than a year.
2. Has a romantic relationship between Blue Beetle and Impulse ever been considered, or should it stay on the realm of the fandom? Seeing as it is a kid's show, I can imagine it would be hard to develop such relationship, even if subtly.
1. SPOILER REQUEST. NO COMMENT.
2. I honestly don't know what to do with this question. No, I guess the answer is no. But fans can dream.
RAIN OF THE GHOSTS, BOOK TWO COUNTDOWN, Chapter Nine
In my on-going shameless attempt to maintain buzz about my new novel, RAIN OF THE GHOSTS, due out in stores and on-line on December 3rd, 2013 (but available for pre-order NOW on Amazon, etc.), I've decided to countdown my progress on writing the SECOND book in the Rain franchise.
I just finished writing Chapter Nine. It's the longest chapter in the book so far. There was a LOT of expository information to cover, but I hope I did it in an entertaining way.
Hopefully, you guys'll be the judge of that soon enough.
Hi Greg,
I have to tell you that I LOVED True Colors, the whole episode was incredible and in my opinion flawless.
I've posted before and am a huge fan of your interpretation of Lex Luthor. I found it very interesting that LexCorp Farms was located in Smallville.
Many versions of Lex have featured him spending some time and/or growing up in Smallville.
1) Does this apply to Lex in Young Justice? If so could you elborate on his time in Smallville? And did this influence his decision to place LexCorp Farms in Smallville?
2) If Lex did not spend time in Smallville, why did he chose to locate LexCorp farms there?

Is "the Reach" the name of the species that the Ambassador, the Scientist and Black Beetle belong to? On Young Justice Wiki, we're debating whether the Reach is a species.
It is, though at this point, it's also an empire (though not in name) that incorporates many other species, as well. Still the most trusted members of the Reach are those of the original Reach species.
Black Beetle sounds different. Did you alter his voice this season?
This season? He's only appeared in the one season, i.e. Season Two. And no, Black Beetle is voiced consistently through Season Two by Kevin Grevioux. And I just want to say that we don't alter Kevin's voice at all. THAT IS HIS REAL VOICE!!
How long have Wally and Artemis been living together?
Since the start of their sophomore year of college.
Given that he also has Lex's DNA, does Superboy look *exactly* like Superman did at 16 or just extremely similar?
Pretty much exactly, except for the hairstyle.
What is Garth's, as well as his parents Thar and Berra, Atlantean name? Thanks!
Garth is Garth's Atlantean name, as you saw if you watched episode 108. We have not addressed his parents yet at all.
Hello Greg. I have a few questions about Nashville as a character.
1. How would little Gnash react to living with the Manhattan Clan in 1997? Staying in one place and not time hoping around with his family like he's used to.
2. What's his impression of Goliath as the clan leader? Does he admire him, or is he envious that Goliath is the leader and not his father.
3. Does he address both his parents in English, or in English and Japanese respectively?
1. That's something I'd demonstrate and reveal in storytelling. Not on a question answering site like this.
2. I think he's been raised to think highly of Goliath, but as for how it plays out... see above.
3. He's bilingual.
My review on True Colors:
It ABOUT time they've said Deathstroke in a DC cartoon!, But I love how Nick Chinlund delivered that name. More funny moments and one-liner jokes from Blue Beetle and Impulse which I do appreciate. Green Beetle?, well that's original. I really wonder where are Barbara Gordon and Cassie Sandsmark though. Anyway looking forward to "Fix".
Hope you liked "The Fix."
What determines a scarab's color?
P.S.- Good work on your shows, I appreciate how you have taken the time to set up this Q and A, and I hope you keep having this kind of communication with your fans.
Scouts start out as blue. Warriors as black. Color can change based on circumstance.
Dear Greg,
Zatanna and Rocket are my favorite characters, so I have a few question pertaining to them.
1) Who is better at hand-to-hand combat between the two?
2) Would you say they are close friends?
3) Where does Zatanna live now in 2015?
4) Does Rocket fight alongside Icon anymore now that she is part of the Justice League? Is she still his sidekick?
5) After Zatara's imprisonment by Dr. Fate, did Zatanna have to learn magic on her own.Did she ever ask for help from Dr. Fate?
Thanks Greg!
1. Rocket, probably. I guess. Maybe.
2. Yeah.
3. SPOILER REQUEST. NO COMMENT.
4. She's more his partner.
5. SPOILER REQUEST. NO COMMENT.
Mind releasing some episode names post Runaways?
Also, a question about the Rimbor 8. Do they know what Godfrey is doing to the league's rep? Or anything going on at the moment
The Rimbor 8? Do you mean the Rimbor 6? Or is 8 including Icon and Hawkman? If so, then why not the Rimbor 10 and throw in Hal and Guy?
Anyway, they knew very little about what was going on on Earth.
As for episode names, of course, you know them all by now.
Hello,
I've really gotten addicted to Young justice ( it has converted me from marvel to dc lol) and I watch it religiously.
My favorite characters are aqualad and superboy.
1. I kind of see superboy as the main character of the series, he seems to have the most number episodes centered around him, picks up the best toys (sphere and wolf) and over all seems to have had the most character development. While kalder is my favorite character, my favorite episodes have always been the ones centered around Conner.
So I would like to know, while the series is really more of team show, which character would you consider more of a main protagonist? ( blue beetle, nightwing etc)
2. I loved how kalder pulled an "anakin " ( went over to the dark side, so to speak,), and he's really a awesome at it!!!
I loved the scene where came out of the water to fight artemis and nightwing, and then the ALL SHALL SUFFER IF BLACK MANTRA COmmands it, along with how he instantly fired his laser while the team was in stealth mode was beautiful.
Does kalder enjoy being bad? Even a little..
3. Young justice is INCREDIBLEly well drawn, are you more motivated to make more intricate battle scenes because they come out so well?
1. It doesn't work that way. This isn't Spectacular Spider-Man, where we had one clear lead, and everyone else was a satellite orbiting around him. We think of this as a DC Universe series. It's an ensemble piece. "Leads" are defined by story. Hopefully, we laid enough groundwork in Season One that any character can step up and be interesting and carry an episode.
2. I'll leave that to your interpretation.
3. Nah. We always just want the show to be the best it can be. Period.
Hello, Mr. Greg Weisman,
Another good episode! Here are my thoughts on interesting things I've seen on this episode.
Jonathan Kent's First Appearance - Finally! After all those times of me worrying of what his fate might have been in comparison to the comics, Mr. Kent is still alive and well on Earth-16. It's probably a fair bet that Martha Kent is okay too, but thanks for at least showing us Mr. Kent… Also, I noticed Jonathan acknowledged Conner as one of his "boys," and so I'm guessing that Conner was introduced to the Kents by Clark during the time-skip?
Green… Beetle? - Yeah, the latest promo did show this guy, but I never expected him to be a Martian. The name probably suggests that he is a Green Martian. I also suspect he is an original character because I looked around the Internet to see if there was prior info on the guy, but I found nothing. It got me curious that he seems to know about Martian Manhunter to some extent. Perhaps they met before?
The Light wants a team of heroes of their own? - Oh no no no no no! I had feared something like this would happen. For a while, I have been theorizing that one of the factors that could have led to the Reach Apocalypse is that there would be some kind of meta-human civil war (which would theoretically be something like the Marvel Comics event "Civil War."), because something like that could really push public opinion against the Justice League forever. And now, we are going to have a group of kids whose intentions may be good but are going to unintentionally work for the bad guys? Not good! Not good at all! If I turn out to be right, I will be very surprised.
Tim Drake's second round of leadership - It's nice to have Tim be in charge again. I've been waiting forever for him to have a chance to lead more often. If Tim gets more chances like this, I bet he'll eventually lead the Team himself someday…
Aqualad is at risk of being compromised?! - With Psimon on the case, it's going to be bad for him if the truth is revealed. I hope Aqualad recovers in time to help our heroes in the fight against the Light and the Reach…
Thanks for taking the time to read my thoughts about this episode.
CGYJ
Conner is considered family at this point.
The new episodes was AWESOME, and never have I had any other show that kept me waiting for the next.
1) What is Bruce and Barbara's relationship to you?
2) If Stephanie Brown is now in, is there gonna be like, Tim/Steph interaction?
3) Why is YJ not aired in South East Asia? Cause, well, the fans back here are all watching the newest episodes on YouTube.
4) When Nightwing said "Just don't die, okay?" to Robin, did he mean Jason?
Well, I guess that's it. If I have any more, I'll make sure to ask you. Thanks for your time!
1. I don't really think they know I exist.
2. What you saw is what you got, unless WE get more episodes or issues somehow, someday.
3. I have no idea.
4. I think Jason was on his mind.
how old is deathstroke?
how old is green beetle?
At the END of SEASON ONE (that's right, ONE):
Deathstroke was forty-seven.
B'arzz O'oomm was 114 Earth years old, which is the biological equivalent (more or less) of 38.
