hello, Greg. How are you doing these days? I hope you have a nice day.

anyways, i have two a Spectacular Spidey question to ask. How did Electro feel about Doc Ock after "Shear Strength" (y'know, after abandoning him and all that)? And second, has Cletus ever interacted with both Ock and Electro? If so, what was it like?

A few questions about the Irish kings in Gargoyles.
1. Do the reigns according to the Annals of the Four Masters or Foras Feasa ar Éirinn hold?
2. Tamar Tea Tephi is said to have come to Ireland in 585 BC and married the reigning king, Eochaid. However, in the Annals of the Four Masters, no Eochaid reigned, and in the Foras Feasa ar Éirinn, an Eochaid mac Ailella only reigned from 577 to 570 BC. How are they related?
3. When Cu Chullain smashed the Stone of Destiny because it hadn't recognized Lugaid Red-Stripe as king, it must have happened in 33 BC, since that's when Lugaid's reign began in both annals.
4. Is Fergus really a descendant of Eremon, as well as of Eochaid and Lugaid?

You once wrote that the "priest" at Macbeth's coronation in Scone was supposed to be Bodhe (https://www.s8.org/gargoyles/askgreg/search.php?qid=10175). However, they don't look alike, especially because of the beard. Did Bodhe shave part of his beard specifically for the ceremony?
Was the "priest" at Kenneth mac Alpin's coronation also someone specific? Perhaps his brother Donald?(See the issue "Rock and Roll")

Hey, Greg!

I'm writing first of all to tell you a HUGE THANK YOU “SPASIBO” for your work and all the projects you've had a hand in. Now that I'm almost 30, I think it's strange to write to the author of comics and creator of cartoons that I read and watched when I was still in school, but then I realize that why not? The projects that you remember me for are “Gargoyles” - which became something incredible for me, and literally blew up the brain of a six-year-old kid, the complexity of the plot, mythology, ambiguity of characters, setting and morality, which at the time could not be compared with cartoons that were shown on other channels.

"Young Justice" (Seasons 1 and 2) â€" I’m not sure what connection this series has to the U.S. (if any), and while I’m not overly invested in it myself, it’s adored in Russia for its balance of seriousness and humor, its characters, and the smooth, evenly-paced development of its storylines. For me, Robin, Wally, and Kaldur from the first season remain the best iterations of these characters, both on-screen and in media overall.
"The Spectacular Spider-Man" and "W.I.T.C.H." are also hugely popular in Russia. The latter was even watched by guys here (which might’ve seriously boosted their ability to talk to girls).

I could go on forever about the works we love here and why they resonate with me personally, but this message is getting too long and might not pass moderation.
Thank you again for your immense contribution to the geeky childhoods of me and my friends. Thank you for treating kids in cartoons like smart, capable adults, and thank you for continuing to work on "Gargoyles" â€" I’m doing my best to keep up with it and read any new issues if they come out.

In Kazakhstan (Russia’s neighbor), ComicCon Astana takes place in July, and I can confidently say that if your mood ever brings you there, fans from Russia and other Russian-speaking countries would be thrilled to personally thank you in their own ways.

Since this is a Q&A topic, here are my questions:

What are your thoughts on the shelved "Gotham High" project, which aimed to reimagine DC heroes in a high school setting? I stumbled across it around 2010 and still wonder why it never even got a pilot season.

Could we see a new "Gargoyles" animated series with you in the director’s chair?

If you could hypothetically work on adapting any DC or Marvel storyline, which one would you choose?

Hello Mr. Weisman,

I am a huge fan of The Spectacular Spider-Man, and I would like to thank you for creating one of the best animated series I’ve ever seen. The character development, storytelling, and action were all perfect, and the series is still beloved by many to this day.

I grew up watching this series, and I am now 23 years old. It’s a major part of my memories and my love for Spider-Man. This show is the reason I fell in love with Spider-Man because it focused solely on his story without distracting attention to other characters like Miles Morales or Spider-Ghost. What truly makes this show special is that it showed Spider-Man relying on himself and taking full responsibility, which made the character stronger and more relatable. In fact, Spider-Man’s sense of responsibility taught me the meaning of responsibility during my childhood and its impact on our lives.

I know that legal complications prevented the show from continuing, but with the continued success of Spider-Man characters, do you think there’s any chance of bringing it back someday? Whether as a new series, an animated film, or even as official comic books, it would be amazing to see your story continue.

Thank you for your time, and I hope to hear from you!

Best regards,
Mohamed Adel

Hope you’re having a great day!

Kaee writes...

Hello! Huge fan of Young Justice! Now I know the chances are a bit low, but I was hoping if you could take into consideration my original character!Prince Ka’thir of Amun â€" The Chaosborn Sun

Born on the vibrant and mystical planet of Amun, Prince Ka’thir was destined for greatness. His lineage, the revered Children of the Sun, had long been blessed by the celestial deity Ra’thir, granting them the ability to wield the pure, radiant energy of the sun. However, on the day of Ka’thir’s birth, a rare and foreboding solar eclipse darkened Amun’s skies. It was a moment foretold in prophecyâ€"the arrival of one who would walk the path between order and chaos.

From an early age, it became evident that Ka’thir was different. Instead of the golden light of his ancestors, he wielded seething blue Chaos Magicâ€"unpredictable, powerful, and feared. His abilities were raw and untamed, making him both a marvel and a danger. While his mother, Queen Ashera, embraced his uniqueness, his father, King Ra’shor, and the Amunite High Council feared what it could mean for their future.

Whispers of prophecy spread throughout the landâ€"Ra’thir had decreed that Ka’thir’s fate would be one of great upheaval. Many believed he was a harbinger of destruction. Fueled by fear and ambition, a faction of Amunite rebels led by the warlord Khezer struck in the dead of night, assassinating King Ra’shor and attempting to end Ka’thir’s life before his destiny could unfold.

But fate had other plans.

Overcome with grief and rage, Ka’thir’s Chaos Magic erupted in an apocalyptic storm, shaking the foundations of Amun. Blue lightning split the heavens, entire cities crumbled, and the very balance of magic trembled before his wrath. Had it not been for Queen Ashera’s desperate intervention, Amun would have been lost. With no other choice, she cast a final, heartbreaking spell to send her son across the cosmosâ€"to a world that could teach him control, far from those who feared him.

Ka’thir crash-landed on Earth, where he was discovered by the covert superhero team, Young Justice. Though initially distant, he found companionship among its members, particularly with Superboy, Conner Kent. Despite their clashing temperaments, Conner’s steadfast nature balanced Ka’thir’s volatile spirit, and their friendship deepened into something unshakable. However, their bond was not without its struggles. Conner, fiercely protective of Ka’thir, often frustrated him with his overbearing nature, leading to frequent arguments. Yet, no matter how heated their clashes became, they always found their way back to each other, growing even closer in the process.

Though Ka’thir learned to control his Chaos Magic, his true test came when the formidable sorcerer Wotan sought to harness his untapped power. In a harrowing battle, Wotan stripped Ka’thir of his abilities, leaving him powerless and broken. Doubt consumed himâ€"was he truly nothing without his magic?

It was Conner who reminded him that his power was not tied to the sun, nor to prophecy, but to his own will. In his darkest moment, Ka’thir found clarity. Drawing upon the sheer force of his determination, he reignited his Chaos Magic, stronger than ever before. With a surge of cerulean energy, he overwhelmed Wotan, reclaiming his destiny as not just a wielder of magic, but its master. From that day forward, Ka’thir became recognized as one of the most powerful beings in the universe, capable of bending reality itself to his whim. His mastery over Chaos Magic allowed him to reshape matter, alter time, and defy the very laws of existence, earning him both awe and fear across the cosmos.

As the dust settled, Ka’thir turned to Conner, his heart pounding with a newfound realization. For so long, he had fought against his feelings, refusing to confront what had always been there.

Now, as a warrior reborn, Prince Ka’thir stands not as a bringer of chaos, but as a beacon of hopeâ€"an Amunite prince who defied prophecy and forged his own fate.

Here’s an action-packed backstory for Prince Ka’thir that highlights his struggles, growth, and ultimate triumph.

Dear Mr. Weisman,
My name is Samuel Recco, and I hold a degree in Languages and Literature. As part of my ongoing personal and academic interest in storytelling and global literary phenomena, I am currently exploring how certain animated series â€" such as W.I.T.C.H. â€" transcend their original medium to become cultural touchstones.
I would be deeply honored to have the opportunity to speak with you about your work on the W.I.T.C.H.
My aim is to better understand the roots of such a globally impactful story: its original ideas, creative direction, and the narrative vision that helped shape the series into a worldwide phenomenon.
If you are available, I would be truly grateful for the chance to arrange a brief video interview (about 20â€"30 minutes) at a time that works best for you. It would mean a great deal to gain your insights and perspectives for my research and literary exploration.
Thank you very much for considering my request. I truly appreciate your time and the creative legacy you’ve built.

With regards,
Samuel Recco.

Hello, I had a few magic themed questions and hope this doesn't waste your time.
1)In the "worlds" you've created or contributed to, when someone casts a spell, do they always drain their life force to do so or is that only when they don't have an accessible, external source of mystic power?
2)Does draining their life force for power only happens when they can't access/channel magic from somewhere else or can their life force itself act as the necessary energy to fuel their sorcery?
3)If something's life force can fuel sorcery, does that make life force, or vim vitae, a type of mystic energy too?
3a)If vim vitae is an actual type of usable energy for sorcery, do characters like Zatanna usually tap this personal power source because it is technically more easily accessible, if finite?
4)Is one's life force naturally self-renewing? If so, using or draining too much at once would kill its source?
5)Is there a connection to one's stamina and life force? If so can you please explain layman’s term?

(Sorry if each world you've written for has a different answer, and if so please feel free to disregard this post as I don't want to take up too much of your time. In any case, thanks for creating wonderful material that has produced so many fond memories and enjoyable content.)

Hi, Greg. I just want to say, I am a huge fan of The Spectacular Spider-Man Animated series. You did an awesome job! It is the most popular Marvel TV show ever! Not to mention the art style and animating is very outstanding. I grew up I watching it as a kid and I still love it. I also love the theme song, it’s incredibly catchy and energetic. I hope the show will comeback someday. I’m keeping my fingers crossed. Josh Keaton is one of my voice actors of Spider-Man, he did an amazing job.

I have question. Are you hoping to bring back The Spectacular Spider-Man Animated Series someday in the future?

Idk, maybe I’m reading too much into some scenes. Still I think it’s safe to say Dick would never cheat BUT it is kind of weird how much they flirt, and not just in a lighthearted way.

Hello, I hope you’re doing well!
I had a few questions about YJ

1. When it comes to moves and maneuvers, you kept it quite simple and limited in the show, however, is there a specific source where they’re like kept and listed, or do you just randomly choose numbers/names for them? Are they consistent across dc universe or does every creator kind of make it up however they want?

2. Have you had some ideas for season 5 or do you not think about that until you’re given a green light for another season?
2a. Also, have you ever taken, or think of taking into consideration what fans obsess over and ask for? (Like the totally mysterious red hooded ninja) Or do you just do your thing

3. Do you regret having the og team grow up so fast, would you rather have kept the vibe from the 1st season going for longer?

4. Do you regret making such a big time skip between seasons 1 and 2? I would obviously assume it was for the purpose of the 16h connection but we also don’t see much of what happened between them. Have you decided to completely abandon it and just move on with the show?

Anyway I love the show and tysm for gracing the earth w it🙇‍♀️

Hello Greg,
I was hoping if Young Justice will return for a 5th season, I want to know what can fans do so it can return, I know it's too much to ask for even after the show was cancelled after the first 2 seasons, but we have alot of unanswered questions on the show and many fans would like Wally West to return, This show has been a huge impact on me since I was 13 , I'm 22 now not the biggest DC fan but Young justice is something else the show has always been a great motivation for me to be an animator and I'm in art school now also it has been a big source of inspiration through out the years. There is a fan petition at change.org for the return of a 5th season please tell us is it possible that we can get a 5th last season that can complete all the missing stories that we've been waiting for or is it already too late? and if yes please BRING WALLY BACK

My wife and her best friend have been fans of the show since it came out. I am trying to see if there is any written version or audio copy of this event I can find as this is something they have both hoped to read or find out what happened one day.

They claim there was a Gargoyle Convention in Orlando where the three scripts for the unaired episodes was read to the crowd. I think its from 2000 based on https://www.s8.org/gargoyles/askgreg/search.php?rid=773.

I know in previous posts you have said your scripts don't format correctly here, but I would take any legible format. I also understand from other posts you don't post the radio play scripts, but since this was written material that never made it to publication, I hoped this may be different.

Thanks in advance!

Hi Greg! I’ve loved Young Justice for years, and am currently rewatching it. (I wonder what I’ll be watching by the time this question gets answered…) Anyways, I have a few questions for you about the show.

1) If you could make any silly, filler, or fluff episodes (that would be canon to the Young Justice universe), what would they be about? Personally, I’d love to see what sort of shenanigans the season 1 Team got up to.

2) Do you have a favorite character, episode, and/or season? If so, why? My favorite character is Dick Grayson, my favorite episode is “Home Front”, and my favorite season is season one.

3) How did you originally decide that Wally would die at the end of season 2? Was it in the original script, or did his death get added in on a later edit? On that note, when you first decided to kill Wally, did you plan on bringing him back? This is not asking if you currently plan on bringing him back, I want to know what you were thinking at the time. I guess, how much can you say about your original plans? I’m really curious about your creative process, especially for such a big event in the show. Hopefully, you can share without risking spoilers!

Thanks for making such an amazing show, I’m so glad my cousin introduced me to it all those years ago. It’s truest been a delight to watch the show progress.

First, I am a huge fan of the Young Justice show/series will continue to keep tabs of any future content.
Questions I have:
1) In "Illusion of Control" when Gar, Virgil, Jaime, Bart, Traci and Ed are chasing after the helicopter it had gone over my head that Ed, who at the time was not a member of the Team let alone the Outsiders, had an ear piece when he asked Jaime ("Blue") if his armor could offer some protection against Vertigo. Is the earpiece he used in that episode, a souvenir from the time he and the other Runaways worked with the League and other heroes in "Endgame" or did someone lend him theirs (maybe Gar or Traci)?
2) Would you consider using other media formats like maybe light novels (novels with images along with word content)/YA novels to continue telling stories from YJ Earth-16?
3) If you could write/tell stories about Outsider missions (missions the Outsiders were on or completed) that were not shown on the show or in the tie-in comics what would they be (would also understand if this question falls under spoilers)?

Hi, Greg! I'd like to start out by saying that I grew up on Spectacular Spider-Man. I was here years old when I came out, and it formulated so much of what I like in Spider-Man today, and it deeply depresses me to see what happened with the show, since it's one of my favorite shows of all time.
My question to you is: has there ever been consideration for completing the series in comic book format? Kind of like how Smallville had a Season 11 in the form of a comic book. I've thought of this for a while, but never gave it serious consideration knowing that some TV show runners just aren't trained in the ways of the comic industry, but I was recently surprised to know that you are very familiar with writing comics, and have actually done series for Gargoyles and Young Justice! I'm sure you are very busy with the "Spectacular Spider-Men" series that is ongoing, but to know if this had been in consideration might give me some closure. I would really appreciate your opinion, and I'm looking forward to seeing more stuff from you because of your talent!

Hi Greg,

I was wondering your thoughts on how the art of writing superhero comics has changed from when you started with Captain Atom back in the day, to now working on the Spectacular Spider-Men. For example things like writing arcs for the trade paperback, working in an office vs working from home, metrics of success, approaches to continuity and crossover events, the death of thought bubbles, multimedia synergy, frequent new #1s, etc. I'd be interested to know if you had challenges or some sort of learning curve to adapt to any of these industry changes. Does the process feel substantially different, or is it all the same once you get in front of the keyboard?

Thank you

Don't know when you'll get to this, but earlier you mentioned Amazons not aging physically while on Themyscira is a world-building rule for the Earth 16 continuity. I was wondering if you could give some clarification on this. Using Wonder Woman as an example with the dates you gave fans for the show, she was born in 1925 and was 16-years-old when she originally debuted as Wonder Woman ca. 1941. She then returns to Themyscira in 1946 (where she is presumably 21-years-old) and does not return to "Man's World" until 2001, where, assuming she didn't have a year-or-two sojourn back in Themyscira (which I won't even speculate on for this question since it would count as SPOILER territory), she would have continued to physically age and is now around 40-years-old (physically but not chronologically) in 2020 (which is I believe when Season 4 ended in the show's timeline).

So, my clarification is how the no-aging thing works since Wonder Woman clearly aged 16 years (presumably) before her first venture into Man's World ca. 1941.

In the Earth-16 universe, has there been any suggestions amongst the members of the United Nations to form a UN-controlled counterpart to the original Justice League in the event that latter cannot be trusted and may end up turning against humanity? Alternatively, has Amanda Waller yet considered the possibility of forming her own Justice League (which I suspect will likely either be called the Justice Squad or Task Force VII)? If that hasn't happened yet, what are the chances that this MIGHT end up happening in Season 5 of "Young Justice"?

If you ever return to the gargoyle series, do you think you maybe could show some of the clans from around the world from every continent? I’m sure there are many different breeds. It would be cool to see what each clan looked like. If this was too personal, I’m sorry for asking.

Hey Greg! I love Young Justice. Enjoy the show! But I love the introduction of Guardian, a golden age hero!

But I did notice some differences, particularly his shield. In the comics, his shield was big and capable of being used in combat. What was the reason for the change in Young Justice, where his shield (being two) shrank to the size of bracelets?

Aside from his family members that have been shown on the "Young Justice" TV series, are there any heroes or villains in the Earth-16 universe who are somehow related to Vandal Savage (assuming their lineages can be traced all the way back to him); considering Vandal Savage has lived on Earth for over 50,000 years?

#1. Assuming he was NOT the first, exactly when did the Earth-16 version of Darkseid become the Lord of Apokolips, and how old was he (in terms of human biological equivalent years) when that happened?

#2. Was the Earth-16 version of Desaad originally born on New Genesis (like in the comics) or was he born on Apokolips?

#3. If the Earth-16 versions of Darkseid and Vandal Savage were to ever eventually fight each other directly in combat, who would most likely win and why?

#4. Is it possible that the year 2030 is when the final battle between Vandal Savage and Darkseid will occur, and that Superboy's role is most likely to put an end to the war once and for all on May 14th, 2030 at exactly midnight?

Dear Greg, I was born just after your show "The Spectacular Spiderman" aired on T.V. Despite this tragedy as a young boy I craved all forms of Spiderman content, watching the Raimi movies and Andrew Garfield while watching your show on blu-ray, your show particular though, after re-watching my favourite childhood series really astounded me at how much care and love you put into something that I didn't really pay much attention to as a child. Subtle things like introducing characters tees before they're properly use and making Pete and Spiderman almost different people is a genius move and I praise you, Mr. Victor Cook and all who were involved in the making of this great piece of television for. All I wanted to say was thank you and please make your intended projects that were meant to be made after season 2. Anyways that you and god bless

Hello! hope you're having a good day Greg, my question is there any Plans to include Miles rogues in future issues? I recently started reading your Spectacular Spider-men run which I have been a blast so far, but after some discussion with fellow fans I have noticed that none of Miles own rogues have appeared yet. I can understand the more plot heavy villains in Ziglar's run such as Rabble or Agent Gao, but Frost Pharoah? Zip Zephyr? Bumbler? these guys are perfect for this sort of fun and whacky comic. This is really one of my only criticisms/nitpicks so far as the thing I was excited most for was seeing both the Spider-men's rogues gallery and Supporting cast clashing together in some Weismann goodness. Thanks for reading and answering hopefully!

Hi, Greg. I've been wondering for a while, in episode 1 Goliath told Demona to remain at Castle Wyvern alongside the other gargoyles and due to the bargain, she and the Captain of the Guard made with Hakon this got the gargoyles killed while in stone sleep

Does this mean that Goliath is partially responsible for the other clan members' deaths since he was the one who made them stay, which got them killed?

I have been trying to find a way to contact Greg Weisman, the creator of Gargoyles. His storytelling and ideas are just awesome, and I am a fan of Gargoyles as well. To that end, I have a metal cover Gargoyles 1 signed by Nakayama. I really want to get Greg's autograph on it as well. I have never seen Greg at a con anywhere near me, but I am willing to fly to one if I could be told if he has any plans to attend a con soon.

Otherwise, I would like to mail the comic out for Greg's signature, if he has any such service. I would love a remarque too, but really the signature is priority. I can send a return envelope prepaid, cash for whatever Greg's fee is, etc. I am not looking for CGC certification. I am not sure if this is the right place to ask about this, but I do not know where else to try. Thank you.

Unintentionally Unsympathetic: Gar's arc of dealing with depression, while realistic, grated many fans the wrong way for both sides.

On one hand, several character's reaction to Garfield's condition and attempts to help him come across as quite selfishly. While there are signs of care in their words, it focuses on their desire to have the friend and leader back over wanting him to genuinely recover, or just not taking time to understand his trauma. Only Robotman during the intervention showed completely selfless empathy. This in turn makes Gar's claim that he "can't handle being needed" justifiable.
On the other hand, Gar's own attitude towards people genuinely trying to help him comes off as excessively callous, with dismissal and rudeness towards Perdita, M'gann and Robotman being particular standouts. While many viewers understood where Gar was coming from, they pointed it was not an excuse to hurt others.

If you ever plan on making a Young Justice Season 5 at some point in the future I hope you'll find a way to make up for this somehow. Like perhaps both sides admitting how wrong they were and apologizing for it.

If nothing else, Xanatos himself admitted to having enemies in Double Jeopardy. Formidable at that.

Kind of funny. You had two stories with a bit of an appearance of Derek/Talon:
- City of Stone as Xanatos's pilot
- Future Tense where his attempt to infiltrate "Xanatos" leads to his death.

And both times his role was taken over by a member of the Xanatos family with Fox in their name.XD

1. Did Bane break Batman's back during the timeskip between Seasons 1 and 2?

3. How old is Julia Pennyworth in both the "Catwoman: Hunted" movie and (presumably) in the Earth-16 universe?

6. Assuming Earth-16 Jason Todd's personality was similar to that of his Earth-0 counterpart, which members of the Team (specifically, the ones who knew Jason up to the point of his tragic death) were particularly troubled by his dark and violent behavior?

In the "Young Justice" series, when did the Justice League officially started their leadership elections; assuming the idea was not suggested amongst the founding members of the Justice League immediately after the group was formed? Also, when was the exact starting date and ending date for each Justice League member's leadership term? And finally, why was each Justice League leader specifically chosen during each election; aside from Black Lightning (since the reasons he was chosen were explained in detail in the Season 3 finale)?

Mr. Weisman,

From what I understood about the video game, "Young Justice: Legacy," there are five locations with multiple missions; each location involves a three-person team and the first person on the team is the designated leader. The designated team leader in each location was as follows:

Artemis (Greece missions)
Superboy (Siberia missions)
Aqualad (Santa Prisca missions)
Nightwing (Gotham City missions)
Aqualad (Bialya missions; as Alpha Squad team leader)
Nightwing (Bialya missions; as Beta Squad team leader)

Aside from the team leader, there are two members of the Team that the player can choose to fight alongside the team leader. In the game's very first mission in Greece, however, the three-person team always starts off with Artemis (as team leader), Nightwing, and Flash, but afterwards, the player can choose any two members of the Team to follow the team leader in each subsequent mission.

As such, in your own personal headcanon (and this is also assuming that you've played the game yourself), which two members of the Team canonically fought alongside the leaders of Alpha Squad and Beta Squad during each mission in each of the five locations during the events of the game?

Mr. Weisman,

1. You said that, in the Earth-16 universe, one of Alfred's greatest regrets is that he refrained from parenting Bruce; as such he treated Dick differently. Did he treated Jason Todd and Tim Drake (and presumably Cassandra Wu-San; since she moved to Wayne Manor after defecting from the League of Shadows) in a similar manner like he did with Dick?

2. When Lady Shiva damaged Orphan's vocal cords, was the damage permanent, or will the damage take a very long time to recover before Orphan will eventually be able to finally speak?

3. Since Cassandra Wu-San moved to Wayne Manor, did she technically become Bruce Wayne's fourth legal ward?

4. In the comics, Orphan's father is David Cain; who is one of the world's premier assassins, paid to eliminate some of the most famous and powerful people on the planet, no matter how seemingly impossible the task. However, since the Earth-16 version of Orphan has her mother's surname instead; I'm curious to know why the Earth-16 version of David Cain is not a part of Cassandra's life; even though he IS Cassandra's father. I mean, did Lady Shiva forbid David from seeing his own daughter, or was there another reason why David Cain hasn't been introduced in the Earth-16 universe yet?

5. In the Earth-16 universe, does Lady Shiva have an older sister named Carolyn Wu-San, an uncle named Shiruto, and a godfather named O-Sensei?

Hi, I love the expansion of Martian lore and culture that your series did in season 4. I would like to know more about this topic.

Are there a equivalent to schools in M'arzz? If they exist, does they have specific classes for learning how to use their species natural abilities like the telepathy and shape-shifting?

We know that J'onn used to be a M'hontrr, but does M'Gann count as a M'hontrr since she was trained by one of the greatest M'hontrrs in martian history? Independent of the answer, are the A'ashenn allowed to be M'hontrr? If they are, does they face prejudice by the G'arrunn members in the force?

It has been stated that martians breeds large families, so, is it safe to assume that prince J'emm has at least some siblings?

Since M'Gann's bio-ship was originally promised to her uncle, can we say that the bio-ships are a symbol of high status in martian society? Also, are bio-ships rare? If they are, does M'arzz has laws about connecting with them?

Hey Greg, I'm a great fan of Poison Ivy and I would like to know more about her version in the YJ universe.

Is she named Pamela Isley like in the comics, or is she a new character?

Did her powers came due to a meta-gene or due to a scientifical experiment like her New and Prime Earths counterparts? In case it is the second one, was Jason Woodrue responsable for it?

Are the concepts of the Green and the Red existing in the YJ reality? If they exist, is it safe to say that YJ's Poison Ivy is related to the Green?

True or False?

1. In what could potentially be an ironic twist in the Earth-16 universe, Chameleon Boy (Reep Daggle) is a direct descendant of Ma’alefa’ak (M'comm M'orzz); due to the fact that Ma’alefa’ak's faction of White Martians will live in Durla in the 21st century.

2. In the Earth-16 universe, the founding members of the Legion of Super-Heroes are Cosmic Boy (Rokk Krinn), Saturn Girl (Imra Ardeen), and Lightning Lad (Garth Ranzz).

3. In the Earth-16 universe, Brainiac-5's real name is Querl Dox, and he is the descendant of the Collector of Worlds.

4. In the Earth-16 universe, the Collector of Worlds is the ancestor of Brainiac-5.

5. In the Earth-16 universe, Saturn Girl's home world is Titan; which is the largest moon of Saturn and the second-largest moon in the Solar System.

6. Even though Kara Zor-El was still in the Phantom Zone in the original timeline (before Lor-Zod went back in time and changed history by attempting to kill Superboy), it is possible that she had likely tragically died in the Phantom Zone at some point prior to the 31st century; hence her lack of appearance when the other Phantom Zone prisoners were finally released by that time.

7. The introduction of Kara Zor-El in the post-credits scene of the Season 4 finale seems to suggests that her presence is part of the 0.16% chance that the timeline was not completely restored to its original state; which was something that Chameleon Boy was (rightfully) concerned about.

8. In the Earth-16 universe, Big Barda's depicted personality in Season Three of Young Justice is likely in part because she has not yet met her future husband, Mister Miracle (who is the son of Highfather and Highmother, and the foster son of Darkseid).

9. Big Barda will most likely eventually question her loyalty to Darkseid and Apokolips; in part due to the fact that Superman had risked his own life to save her without any hesitation.

What is your deal with changing the racial ethnicity, gender and, worst of all, sexual orientations of characters when you do an adaptation or remake of something as opposed to making an expy. Why ruin what does not need to be fixed? At least with expys, you can basically have a character that you want to use while not sticking to what makes them them instead of your own thing

Hi Greg.
I'm currently annotating the YJ tie-in comics while using the wiki as a resource, as it contains citations to previous Ask Greg Questions. I ask only because I think it was never clarified. I find the wiki to be a wonderful resource, so I wouldn't ask if it was clearly stated on there.

I am currently on Issue #5 (aka the origin issue) and needed something cleared up about Wally's origin. Did Wally have unfettered access to Barry's lab notes when recreating the Flash experiment, or was he simply going off of his memory of the notes he saw when he first found them?

Barry blames himself for Wally's "accident," but how responsible was he really if Wally only carelessly recreated it without supervision.

Thanks for your transparency for all these years, and I hope this is a question that can be answered.

Unintentionally Unsympathetic
1) Few people are shedding tears for Silas Stone after Victor lashed out at him for turning him into a cyborg with the Father Box. From what we see of his relationship with his son, he's shown to be pretty apathetic and distant to the point he barely knows anything about Victor's school life (for reference, he chastises Victor for not doing well enough at school when he has a 4.0 GPA). And although we can forgive him for turning Victor into a cyborg out of desperation, he loses sympathy points when he instead tries to pin the blame on the Justice League for Victor's condition since they gave him the Father Box, even though the League warned him of its dangers.

2) M'gann may enter this territory in "Nevermore." She attempts to give back her engagement ring to Conner, heartbroken that he still can't forgive her for how she abused her powers in the past, while Conner immediately declares otherwise and they happily reconcile. Only problem with that is in just the prior episode she abused her powers to deceive Artemis by letting her believe she was communicating with Wally's spirit when it was really just a construct created by M'gann from Artemis' own mind. Conner, of course, doesn't know this but it's difficult to imagine he wouldn't regard the plan with similar distain when he considers her lying to everyone to be little different than her abusing her powers, and her actions in "Overwhelmed" are her abusing her powers again. Thus M'gann can be seen as receiving forgiveness even while she continues her previous behavior, only this time sucessfully keeping it hidden from Conner.

3) Black Lightning, the show treats him as a more moral and honest counterpart to characters such as Batman who work covertly with secrets, but many fans found him to be a hypocrite since he engages in many of the same things for the majority of the season, such as joining Nightwing's covert team after calling out Batman for making one, and only seems to have a problem with secrets when they're being kept from him, by the end of the season when Jefferson becomes leader of the Justice League many fans feel it was unearned due to his previous actions and behavior.

4) Don't get me start with Garfield/Beast Boy and his behavior during the events of Young Justice Phantoms.

I don't know if you're ever gonna make a Season 5 or more Seasons for Young Justice, but if you do then you better find a way to make up for all this shown above. Okay please?
