By any chance is Mary Bromfield a foil to Arsenal (Roy Harper)? If so then can you explain how and why?

I miss when the show was about the team. It was such a cool and unique concept, why would you replace it with a knock off teen titans? And then not even develop the knock off teen titans in the same way? Why should I care about them? Without the team, it does not even feel like Young Justice anymore.

I am honestly concerned that you’re letting the twitter crowd influence you too much…i know it’s a necessary evil for promotion but you should be aware that the people on there do not represent the whole population. it’s become a really nasty place over the last few years, people there can only deal in absolutes: someone/thing is either the best thing in the world and above all criticism or evil and must be destroyed. did you see how the will smith oscar incident got turned into a race issue where anyone who criticized what will did was branded a racist? the whole site turned on zoe kravitz for saying something when they were obsessing over her a few days earlier and literally accused her of being a pedo based on one line from an interview. right now young justice is beloved there and anyone who dares to share an opinion is attacked - and to be perfectly frank, it often happens after you reply to them. yes it is good for the show to have them on your side because they’ll keep it trending every week but be careful not to get too tangled up with them, they will turn on you in a second.

Mr. Weisman,

If a Martian shape-shifts to a form that is halfway between their natural Martian form and a humanoid form (like what J'onn J'onzz uses), how would you be able to visualize it, and can you please show us what it would possibly look like in a drawing or something? Would such a form likely look similar to that of the appearance of the White Martian Z'kran Z'rann; a character from the comics?

Mr. Weisman,

Out of curiosity, does an A'ashenn M'hontrr (White Martian Manhunter) named Z'kran Z'rann exist in the Earth-16 universe? In the comics, this character was an White Martian who became one of the first seven Green Lanterns 10 billion years ago; as depicted in the comic series, "Green Lanterns." If this character existed in the Earth-16 universe, would he have been regarded as a legendary figure and as an inspiration to all M'hontrrs (Manhunters) on Mars?

Mr. Weisman
1-how many active green lanterns are there?
2-how big is sector 2814? (Is it limited to our solar system?) If it is bigger why do earth's green lanterns spend most of their time on earth and don't spend time on thousands of other planets?
3-is oa the center of universe?
4-how big is the place patrolled by green lantern corps? Is it only the milkey way galaxy or is it the universe?

Hi there
1-does the green lantern power ring need to be recharged? If so how often do lanterns recharge their rings? (Consider normal power usage)
2-what abilities does the life support aura (the green aura surrounding theri bodies) give them besides providing oxygen? Do they need to eat or sleep with that aura? Does it take care of their waste?
3-does the aura mentioned above make lanterns bulletproof?
4-does the power ring grant them super strength?
5-Could they support the weight of a cargo ship or something with cunstructs?

Mr. Weisman,

If Zatanna had chosen some better/wiser/different words to explain why Mary could not wear the Helmet of Fate, would Mary have still have angrily left after being rejected as a potential host for the Helmet of Fate, or would Mary have understood/heeded the wisdom of Zatanna's words and therefore work to try to be better in order to overcome her power addiction?

#1. What were Icon's previous professions during his long life on Earth prior to become a lawyer in the present day?

#2. Why did it take Rocket to convince Icon to become a superhero? Were there personal fears/concerns that prevented him from making that choice himself multiple times prior?

Mr. Weisman,

Just so I can understand this correctly, Black Lightning placed an emphasis on mental health in direct response to Geo-Force's betrayal in the Season 3 finale and what he himself went through during the entire Season 3? Or were there more reasons besides these two reasons I mentioned?

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.

FanternForever writes...

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! :)

Katherine Rebecca “Kate” Kane (maternal cousin)

Elizabeth Marie “Beth” Kane (twin sister)
Thomas Wayne (paternal uncle)
Martha Kane-Wayne (paternal aunt)

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.
