By any chance is Geo-Force (Brion Markov) a foil to Arsenal (Roy Harper)? If so then can you explain how and why?

After Roy was invited to rejoin the Team by Artemis in "The Prize" are any of the heroes trying to make sure Arsenal (Roy Harper) doesn't end up like Vandal Savage, Black Adam (Teth Adam), Ra's al Ghul, and Geo-Force (Brion Markov) after what happened in "Nevermore"?

Hi Greg !
Just read an answer you gave to someone talking about religion, and you said that it's difficult to represent atheists on YJ because of the elements you introduced on the show :

" I'd love to be more inclusive of atheists. I aspire to be an atheist myself, but frankly I'm too superstitious. And I don't know how - in the fantasy world of Earth-16, which includes things like ghosts, phantoms, souls, demons, gods, etc. - to make space for true atheism, which is a philosophy I find most admirable in real life."

Now, I have a question, that I'm sure you will find interesting : how someone can still be religious in the fantasy world of earth-16 ????
Because you objectively demonstrated dozens of things that contradict religions.
Some examples :
- religion said the earth is 6000 years old --> Vandal Savage is 50000 years old.
- religion said the universe was created in 6 days --> you showed the YJ universe is 16 billions years old.
- religion never mentioned extraterrestrial life --> I think we can admit that aliens exist in earth-16 (lol).

And we could go on like that for days. Now, very religious people will come and tell me I'm full of approximation, that it's more complicated, and so on...
But the fact remains, whatever those people may say, that your show is contradicting religious allegations.

SO, don't you think it's nonsensical and inconsistent to have introduced religions in YJ, and that they don't have their place in this universe, because it OBJECTIVELY demonstrated they're WRONG ?

I'm personally an agnostic atheist, which doesn't mean I hate religions, I just find they don't have their place in your show. Don't you agree ?

In Encounter Upon the Razor's Edge, Kilowog said no communication between him and Razer for four years. That sets the events of the parting in team year 6, which is also when the events of Young Justice Invasion takes place. Did you do this as a nod to how both Young Justice and Green Lantern Tas had their finales air together on March 16, 2013 or is there also a deeper reason like it fits better with the Timeline or is it both the factors.

So really loved that you did the GLTAS themed episode,
1. I am curious about how did you guys decide to use music at the end of Encounter Upon the Razor's Edge mirror similar to the one in the green lantern tas finale, whose idea was this, are musical choices like these decided like at the scripting of the episode or is it done after the episode is animated and done?
2. Tying in Razer with the theme of Acceptance and Hope for a better future, yes I can see why you tied this to the rocket's arc. Did you guys have an idea that you would get so much positive reception for doing this or was it a surprise.
3. The Episode is titled "Encounter Upon the Razor's Edge" but the character is named Razer with an "e" in the credits so why this change in spelling, cause Razor means instrument an instrument with sharp sets of blades while Razer means A person who razes something. Is there a reason for this spelling change.
4. So now that you have come around to multiple lantern corps do Orange Lantern, Star Sapphire and Indigo Tribe work on Earth 16.
5. Whose Idea was it to make Razer a composite Lantern i.e both red and blue simultaneously cause that idea is a master stroke and deserves my thanks.

1. Would Razer make a good candidate for the Justice League reserves if Black Lightning and Superman knew about him?

2. How come La’gaan and Arsenal (Roy Harper) aren't candidates for the Justice League reserves?

3. Out of the 24 candidates for the new Justice League reserves displayed on-screen 4 of them are being covered by Superman and Black Lightning's heads respectively. Who are those four?

So. People have asked about the various things. My question is... Why was Jaime not permanently affected by the ghost dimension in Season 3? Was it because he's actually an unactivated meta? Or can the beetle "reverse the damage" the ghost dimension otherwise would have done to Jaime despite not being compatible with the technology while active? Or was it something else?

Mr. Weisman,

I made a mistake in an earlier posting. Here is the CORRECT portion of that posting.

#3. Bette Kane’s Biological Family Relationships:

Unnamed father
Unnamed mother
Thomas Wayne (paternal uncle)
Martha Kane-Wayne (paternal aunt)
Bruce Wayne (paternal cousin)
Damian (first cousin)
Jacob “Jake” Kane (paternal uncle)
Gabrielle Lorna “Gabi” Goldstein-Kane (paternal aunt)
Katherine Rebecca “Kate” Kane (paternal cousin)
Elizabeth Marie “Beth” Kane (paternal cousin)
Nathan Kane (paternal uncle)
Philip Walton Kane (paternal uncle)

In the previous posting, I actually identified Nathan Kane as Bette's maternal uncle; when it is ACTUALLY supposed to be PATERNAL. Sorry about that! :)

Mr. Weisman,

Is the following biological family relationships correct in the Earth-16 universe? If not, please explain why.

#1. Bruce Wayne’s Biological Family Relationships:

Thomas Wayne (father)
Martha Kane-Wayne (mother)
Damian (son)
Jacob “Jake” Kane (maternal uncle)
Gabrielle Lorna “Gabi” Goldstein-Kane (maternal aunt)
Katherine Rebecca “Kate” Kane (maternal cousin)
Elizabeth Marie “Beth” Kane (maternal cousin)
Unnamed maternal uncle (Bette Kane’s father)
Unnamed maternal aunt (Bette Kane’s mother)
Mary Elizabeth “Bette” Kane (maternal cousin)
Nathan Kane (maternal uncle)
Philip Walton Kane (maternal uncle)

#2. Kate Kane’s Biological Family Relationships:

Jacob “Jake” Kane (father)
Gabrielle Lorna “Gabi” Goldstein-Kane (mother)
Elizabeth Marie “Beth” Kane (twin sister)
Thomas Wayne (paternal uncle)
Martha Kane-Wayne (paternal aunt)
Bruce Wayne (paternal cousin)
Damian (first cousin)
Unnamed paternal uncle (Bette Kane’s father)
Unnamed paternal aunt (Bette Kane’s mother)
Mary Elizabeth “Bette” Kane (paternal cousin)
Nathan Kane (paternal uncle)
Philip Walton Kane (paternal uncle)

#3. Bette Kane’s Biological Family Relationships:

Unnamed father
Unnamed mother
Thomas Wayne (paternal uncle)
Martha Kane-Wayne (paternal aunt)
Bruce Wayne (paternal cousin)
Damian (first cousin)
Jacob “Jake” Kane (paternal uncle)
Gabrielle Lorna “Gabi” Goldstein-Kane (paternal aunt)
Katherine Rebecca “Kate” Kane (paternal cousin)
Elizabeth Marie “Beth” Kane (paternal cousin)
Nathan Kane (maternal uncle)
Philip Walton Kane (paternal uncle)

NOTE #1: Martha, Nathan, Philip, Jacob, and an unnamed man (Bette Kane’s father) are siblings in the Kane family, but it is unclear as to the order of oldest to youngest amongst them. Martha is the only one who has appeared in some form in the Earth-16 universe; her brothers have NOT yet made an appearance.

NOTE #2: I assume that Damian will likely only be addressed as first cousin to Kate and Bette in the Earth-16 universe. In the DC Database Wiki, he is identified as Kate’s first cousin once removed and as Bette’s first cousin; specifically in Prime Earth continuity.

NOTE #3: In regards to the full names on the lists, I am assuming that any “nicknames” used are placed between the middle and last names. I do not know if that also applies in Earth-16 canon for them and other people; if this is NOT correct, please correct them accordingly.

Since you said that Green Lantern:TAS is YJ adjacent, would Batman: Under the Red Hood also be YJ adjacent?
