Greg,
Are any of your Young Justice, Spider-Man, or Gargoyles scripts available online? I attend an Animation Writers group in Burbank, and the guest speaker showed one of your scripts as an example. It was a revelation. I've never seen sound effects used as action before. Every line had momentum, the script read was super clean and efficient.
Since then, I've been emailing everywhere to obtain a copy, I had to go to the WGA to read one of your YJ scripts, which again, was incredibly helpful. You noted where every SFX goes, how man characters speak, and to my surprise, people rarely had over two lines of dialogue at any given time. Everything was TIGHT, and was something I really want to study. Even the formatting.
Obviously, I couldn't copy anything from the WGA, and there's NO trace of your work anywhere online. How can I get a copy of a script? Even just the first act would be helpful. Would you consider putting a .pdf online via your website? I have read other books on animation writing, but your script was a big jump for me.
Greg responds...
I don't have the capability of posting a script here in the correct format.
Are you able to come to any of my many convention appearances or signings this summer? I have in the past sold signed copies for fairly reasonable prices. I wasn't planning on bringing any this year, as my focus is on selling my books, RAIN OF THE GHOSTS and SPIRITS OF ASH AND FOAM. But if I know there's an interest, I can bring some scripts too.
Among the conventions I know I'm attending:
Denver Comic Con http://denvercomiccon.com/
CONvergence (Minneapolis) http://www.convergence-con.org/
San Diego Comic Con International http://www.comic-con.org/cci
MechaCon (New Orleans) http://www.mechacon.com/
Long Beach Comic Con http://longbeachcomiccon.com/lbcc.php
Responding here isn't practical, however. But if you contact me, via Twitter at @Greg_Weisman, we can make arrangements. And if other followers are interested in purchasing scripts too, I'm game. Let me know.

In the spectular spider-man were mutants hated and feared?
Greg responds...
Mutants were largely unheard of at that time.
Eva Williams writes...
About gargoyle biology, is it possible for gargoyles to have color blindness?
Just curious.
Greg responds...
I'd lean toward yes on this one, just because I'm red-green color deficient myself. But again, I'm not a doctor or biologist. If saying yes to this throws a monkey wrench into all the other things I've stated, I'm not married to it.

Will you tell me who Roy Harper's biological parents were? Also when they die?
Greg responds...
No. Sorry. But he's the great-grandson of the original Guardian, Jim Harper, if that helps. (Note: that's not the Jim Harper/Guardian you saw on our show. THAT Jim Harper was a clone of the original Roy Harper, who had been told that he was Roy's uncle (and thus the Grandson of the original Jim/Guardian.)
Krysten Myers writes...
Can a gargoyle get diabetes like humans?
Greg responds...
There's some debate about this. I would think that their daily sleep would cleanse/heal them. But I'm open to other thoughts. It's a good question for our Gargoyles Biology & Culture panel at CONvergence this July. I'll try to remember to bring it up for discussion.

1) Is Earth-16 Cassie Sandsmark invulnerable?
2) Is Earth-16 Donna Troy invulnerable?
3) Is Earth-16 Sergeant Marvel invulnerable?
Greg responds...
1. Nope. Or in any case, not in any ultimate sense. After all, there's no point playing bullets & bracelets, if bullets would bounce off you anyway. Of course, if you or I just hit her, she'd seem pretty darn invulnerable.
2. No spoilers.
3. No spoilers.
Sentel writes...
In the earth 16 universe, is it safe to assume that Greta Hayes "crossed over" after the capture of her brother in the episode Secrets. Or does she still haunt the earth?
Greg responds...
Nothing is safe to assume. But I'll leave the ending of "Secrets" to your interpretation.
Anonymous writes...
Was Artemis considered or voted on for League membership in Agendas? Red Arrow, Aqualad, Kid Flash, Robin, Superboy, Miss Martian, Zatanna and Rocket all came up during the conversation, but not Artemis, and I couldn't find her hologram in the voting scene.
Greg responds...
Nope. Not at that time.
Marcus writes...
Hi, Greg! I have a few YJ questions.
1 - How does Mr. freeze sleep at night? Does he put a pillow in his dome? Does he freeze one in out of ice? Does he have a special freezer cell?
2 - When did Killer Frost become a villain?
3 - Did the Kroloteans Miss Martian blanked ever get better? The one Martian Manhunter was interrogating seemed decent enough.
4 - What is the nature of the Greek gods on Earth-16? Its been established they exist, but are they actual gods or 'just' powerful entities, like the New Gods?
5 - How did Doctor Fate react to Wally's death? Kent Nelson stuck around.
Greg responds...
1. Answer C.
2. June of Team Year Negative One
3. No spoilers.
4. No spoilers.
5. The good Doctor holds his cards pretty close to the amulet.
