Does the Light really believe it can play Darkseid the way they played the Reach? The very thought brings a smile to my face.
Greg responds...
They have no intention of "playing" Darkseid, as I assume you know from watching Season Three.

Hi Mr. Weisman,
Saw the promotional poster for Young Justice: Outsiders, but I'm surprised the poster did not have the logo on it...
Greg responds...
Don't know what poster you saw, but it does seem odd that there was no logo on it.

Hey, Greg I'm really excited about Young Justice: Outsiders. I loved the first two seasons and I'm a big fan of Hawkwoman. I would love for her to get more development in this season. My question is: What made you choose to put Shayera Thal as the Hawkwoman in your series and not the popular Shayera Hol? Have a nice day!
Greg responds...
We decided that Thanagarians don't change their names when they marry. (We try to do little things to differentiate cultures, here and there.) So "Thal" is, in essence, the equivalent Shayera's "maiden name". But the character we've chosen is basically the Shayera who was Hawkman's wife when the Thanagarian versions of both Katar and Shayera were both first introduced way back when.
Hawkwoman did get a bit more screen time in Outsiders. I hope you enjoyed it.

Hi Greg! One of the people you follow on Twitter is making false claims to police that local comic stores refusing to carry certain books are involved in pedophile rings (aka pizzagating). Is this something you are aware of?
Greg responds...
No. Someone I follow or someone who follows me?
I'm not on Twitter much these days. Is this still going on?

Hi Greg-- looking forward to the new season of YJ. I know we always get excited when new, licensed Gargoyles merch hits the market so I wanted to make you aware of this:

I've already preordered 2. I imagine good sales will lead to future releases so buy, buy, buy & spread the word!!
Greg responds...
It's great that they made those! Wish I had gotten some.
Soul writes...
Is David Bowie exists in Earth-16? The Beatles?
Greg responds...
Of course Bowie and the Beatles existed!
Eddie Carter writes...
Does Wolf have romantic feeling for Fox during their time as members of The Pack?
Greg responds...
I don't recall thinking so.
Eddie Carter writes...
When Demona had the Phoenix Gate(Vows), why didn't she use it to transport some of the members of her clan to present day Scotland instead of bringing her younger self to the year 994?
Greg responds...
How would that suit her one-track-mind plans?
Marvelman writes...
Could Queen Bee's power influence a female who was not conscious of her own same-sex attraction? Or, I suppose, fail to effect a male who was not aware of his own same-sex attraction?
Greg responds...
I would think so. It's bio-chemical. Not psychological.
Marvelman writes...
Marie Logan seemed annoyed by the team's presence. Was it just because of M'Gann's uncanny resemblance to her, or is she generally unfriendly?
Greg responds...
I think she was simply focused on the health of her animal charges.
Marvelman writes...
Hi Greg. I'm going to ask for a spoiler only because it is a spoiler you have already given us.
Years ago, you said that a villain from the YJ:Legacy would play a role in season 3 - if it ever happened. Is that still the case? (I'm guessing you were referring to Tiamat as she is the only villain specific to Legacy.)
Also, is the general plan you had for season 3 the same as it was when you completed season 2? I guess you'll be able to talk more freely about this after Outsiders has aired.
Greg responds...
1. There were a number of villains that Legacy and Outsiders had in common. I no longer remember who specifically I might have been referring to.
2. The general plan for the entire series (including S3) hasn't changed.
Vinicius Alvarez writes...
Hey, Greg! How you're doing? Can you name all the creators of the show? It always bothered me that I can't find this info anywhere, and I think they deserve credit for the amazing show they created. :)
Greg responds...
Which show are we talking about?
Jennifer Griel writes...
Hey. I was just watching one of my favorite TV shows ever, Ben 10. And while watching I discovered that you wrote not only the best episode of the show objectively, Ben 10,000, but also my personal favorite episode Under Wraps. I just wanted to say thank you. You did a great job making a great show even better. What was it like working with those guys on that show if you remember. I know it was a long time ago.
Greg responds...
I had a great time working with Tom Pugsley and Greg Klein (the latter of whom I also went to high school with). They made my freelance gigs on that series pretty easy. They also did me a big favor. I had been working on the non-union show W.I.T.C.H. for some time and was in danger of losing my union health insurance. The work they gave me allowed me to keep my coverage.
Jennifer Griel writes...
How would you describe the difference between Atlanteans in a taxonomic sense. Are they different species or different races. Is it like the difference between Homo Sapiens and Homo Neanderthals or is is the difference between Caucasians and Africans?
Greg responds...
Neither.
Regular humans = Homo Sapiens Sapiens
Atlantean humans = Homo Sapiens Mermanus (or maybe Homo Mermanus Sapiens, I'm not sure which is correct)

What happen to Marie LOGAN and Garfield Logan's house in 2011 after Marie Logan died ?
Greg responds...
It was closed up.
Marvelman writes...
1) Have you ever attended a con in Canada?
2) Have you ever been invited to a con in Canada?
3) I may have mentioned this already but I suggested you as a guest for the Toronto fan-expo in August. Is this something you would be interested in attending?
Greg responds...
1. Yes. Once.
2. Yes. Once.
3. Sure.
Tamamo writes...
Hello Greg, I deeply enjoyed the Traveler Warcraft novels that you worked on. I am a roleplayer who enjoys writing stories about the Warcraft universe, but Blizzard has a tendency to be inconsistent with explaining things about their universe and leaving a lot of blank spots. Your novel has added so much to the world so far. One thing eludes me though...
We know very little about how Dryads reproduce or how they age and about their life cycles. Book 2 had some hints, but there's still many questions left to answer. What about Frost Nymphs from Northrend? What about Lunara who predates the Kaldorei civilization? There's many questions to ask, but my main one is the following:
Will we learn more about Dryads in book 3?
Greg responds...
We would have if I had been allowed to write it. Maybe the new writer did. But I haven't read the book.
Sunshine writes...
1. Mr Weisman, will you be attending any conventions this year or next?
2. If so, will any of them be near Arkansas?
Greg responds...
1. I don't remember what I attended in 2018, off the top of my head. As for 2021, that seems unlikely, unless you include the virtual convention: DC FANDOME II. I might be at that.
2. No.
Marvelman writes...
In the comics, Shimmer's power is to transmute matter but on YJ her power seems to be to melt or disintegrate stuff. I'm just wondering what the motive was for the change. Did you think her original power was too powerful? Was it just to switch things up? Or, was it for some other reason I haven't thought of?
Greg responds...
It seemed to work with how we were using her. Plus we prefer the cleaner clarity of a simpler power, generally.
Marvelman writes...
Some Captain Marvel questions:
1) In Alpha Male, Captain Marvel flies all the way from India to Fawcett City in a few hours. Is it safe to assume Cap can fly at least at the speed of sound and possibly beyond?
2) Does Captain Marvel heal faster than a normal human?
3) Would the courage of Achilles protect Cap from fear based attacks from villains such as Phobia (of the Brotherhood of Evil)?
Greg responds...
1. Back in Season One? Maybe.
2. Good question. Maybe. It just hasn't come up.
3. Sounds like it would, doesn't it?
Marvelman writes...
Do Superboy and Superman heal faster than a normal human? Is that part of their invulnerability?
Greg responds...
1. Yes.
2. Not exactly. It's part of their solar absorption.
Chip writes...
I was looking at some of your responses from 2001 and I noticed a response that indicated that the New Olympian Clan population was around a hundred Gargoyles. This seemed a rather low number for a clan that lives in relative isolation and safety. Lower even then the canonical 198 of the London Clan; so naturally I’m quite curious about it.
1) Why is the New Olympian Clan population so low?
2) Which of the still surviving Gargoyle Clans has the highest population?
Greg responds...
1. They may be practicing population control, as London does.
2. Don't want to lock myself in on that.
Lewys Tapscott-Nott writes...
How do you plan out a story Spider-Man?
Greg responds...
I'm not Spider-Man.
But basically, there's no difference in planning a Spidey story than planning a story for any show. It involves a lot of index cards, moving beats around until it gels.
B_Schwaz writes...
1a. Will Superman and Superboy actually die if they are deprived of oxygen for long enough? Or just be left unconscious?
1b. How long does it take without oxygen for them to die/be left unconscious?
2a. You've said that M'gann and J'onn need to breathe oxygen, but they come from Mars where there is little oxygen in the atmosphere. Is this because they have taken mostly human forms on Earth, even internally?
2b. How do M'gann and B'arzz breathe when they are in their true Martian forms?
2c. Do Martians breathe on Mars, and if so, what do they breathe?
Greg responds...
1a. They must breathe to live.
1b. I don't know.
2a. No. There is oxygen underground on Mars. Less than on Earth. But enough to breathe.
2b. Like Martians.
2c. Yes.
2d. Oxygen.
Clay writes...
I'm so happy that Young Justice is coming back! Here a few age-related questions:
1. How old was Jonathan Lord while filming Hello, Megan?
2. Same for Sandra Stanyon?
3. By the time of their first appearance in the show, how many years (if they've been around for longer than a year, anyway) have the Cult of the Kobra existed?
4. Same for Intergang?
5. How old is Abra Kadabra?
Greg responds...
1. Jonathan Lord was 59 but playing much younger.
2. Sandra Stanyon was 57 but playing much younger.
3. Haven't locked that down.
4. Ditto.
5. Abra was 40 in Team Year Zero.
