I saw in the archives that someone asked about the religions that the members of the Justice League are practicing, so I was curious about the religions of the members of the team as well. I think it is safe to say that some of them, namely Miss Martian, are already revealed (in her case in Denial), and others like Aqualad and Zatanna can be inferred from their counterparts on the Justice League. Also, since it will be a while when you do get to this question, I would appreciate if you would answer this for any and all new additions to the team as of answering this question as well. Thanks in advance.

Greg responds...

Hmmm, I don't love answering this kind of question casually. It requires research that I haven't (yet) done. But I'll give it a shot. Just don't hold me to it.

B-01 Robin/Nightwing - Protestant Christian of some kind.

B-02 Aqualad - Atlantean Pagan.

B-03 Kid Flash - Protestant Christian of some kind.

B-04 Superboy was given no religion.

B-05 Miss Martian - In theory, grew up worshipping the Gods of Mars.

B-06 Red Arrow - Protestant Christian of some kind.

B-07 Artemis - Fairly confident, she wasn't brought up with any faith...

B-08 Zatanna - Catholic.

B-09 Rocket - Baptist, maybe?

B-10 Tempest - Atlantean Pagan.

B-11 Aquagirl - Atlantean Pagan

B-12 ?? - ??

B-13 ?? - ??

B-14 ?? - ??

B-15 ?? - ??

B-16 Batgirl - Protestant Christian of some kind.

B-17 Bumblebee - Protestant Christian of some kind.

B-18 Lagoon Boy - Atlantean Pagan.

B-19 Beast Boy - Protestant Christian of some kind.

B-20 Robin - Protestant Christian of some kind.

B-21 Wonder Girl - - Protestant Christian of some kind with a new respect for Amazon Pagan.

B-22 Blue Beetle - Catholic.

B-23 Impulse - Protestant Christian of some kind (assuming there was time for faith post-Reach Apocalypse).

B-24 ?? - ??

B-25 ?? - ??

B-26 ?? - ??

Hey! First off, congratulations to your whole team on such a great show. The details you guys put into Young Justice are just amazing. And since I assume the season finale will have aired by the time you see my question, congrats on that full season two!

Here's my questions: 1. What made you decide to have other family members besides Dick Grayson's parents in the Flying Graysons?
2. Was it inspired at all by the movie Batman Forever (which, as far as I know, is the only other instance of multiple Graysons in the DC universe)?
3. Why did you decide to have his uncle survive the fall?

That's it! Oh, one last thing: thank you for portraying Robin and Batman's relationship differently than usual! There's tons of reasons for Robin to grow dissatisfied with Batman and break off on his own at a later date without them having a strained relationship, and it's a breath of fresh air to see it being handled in that way.

:)

Greg responds...

1. Mostly, I'm not going to answer this, but I will say, it never made much sense to me that there were only three Graysons (total). I was also inspired by the Flying Wallendas.

2. No. Or at least not consciously.

3. NO COMMENT.

4. Why does Dick EVER have to "grow dissatisfied with Batman and break off"? That hasn't happened on Earth-16. He's simply grown-up. Their relationship is solid.

Hello, Mr. Weisman. No questions this time around. Just wanted to say that I'm very sorry for your loss and will be praying for you and your family.

At the point that I am writing this, "Insecurity" has aired just the previous day. Artemis was never one of my favorite characters on the show, but I really enjoyed the episode. Now, I am looking forward to the rest of the season, as well as the beginning of Invasion.

Greg responds...

Thank you.

Is season 2 considered episodes beyond the 26 announced or are we watching season 2 currently (14 - 26)?

With your staff of writers for season 2, just how many episodes do they get to write for that batch of episodes --- being a fan of Peter Davids work I'm wondering how many more I (and any other fan of his work) can look forward to.

in episode 123 (the name escapes me right now) the cut away to wolf was just laugh out loud funny

Greg responds...

1. I don't know how Cartoon Network's broadcasting arm defines things, but from a production point of view, Season One consisted of 26 episodes (from "Independence Day" through "Auld Acquaintance") and Season Two is another twenty episodes (from "Happy New Year" to [CENSORED] ).

2. Feel like I've answered this, but maybe not:

201 - Greg Weisman
202 - Nicole Dubuc
203 - Kevin Hopps
204 - Greg Weisman
205 - Brandon Vietti
206 - Peter David
207 - Kevin Hopps (story), Paul Giacoppo (teleplay)
208 - Greg Weisman
209 - Jon Weisman
210 - Kevin Hopps
211 - Nicole Dubuc
212 - Paul Giacoppo
213 - Greg Weisman
214 - Kevin Hopps
215 - Jon Weisman
216 - Kevin Hopps
217 - Brandon Vietti
218 - Peter David
219 - Greg Weisman
220 - Kevin Hopps

So I guess the final score for Season Two is:
Kevin Hopps - 5. 5
Greg Weisman - 5
Peter David - 2
Nicole Dubuc - 2
Brandon Vietti - 2
Jon Weisman - 2
Paul Giacoppo - 1.5

And, of course, Brandon, Kevin and I came up with and broke EVERY story. And I wrote every premise.

3. That was our hope.

Superboy & Miss Martian Action Figures Special Pre-Order

Superboy & Miss Martian Action Figures Special Pre-Order

Sorry about the VERY short notice, but this was only brought to my attention today.

As many of you know, Mattel has discontinued the Young Justice toy line, but there's an opportunity to complete your set of Season One Six Inch Figures.

Brandon talks about it on his blog: http://brandonvietti.blogspot.com/

And Mattel has a YouTube video about it here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B9bjRp0DVog&feature=player_embedded

But the key is to PRE-ORDER within the next 24 hours here:
http://www.mattycollector.com/DRHM/store?Action=DisplayProductDetailsPage&SiteID=matty&Locale=en_US&productID=254180800

I've ordered two sets myself. But I can't get 'em unless enough people join me in this obsession. So, uh... please?

(As a bonus, Miss Martian comes with an extra head, so that she can be Season One Miss Martian with longer hair, or Season Two Miss Martian with short hair.)

I have a few questions about the transport system
1.If Martian Manhunter was brought to Earth by the league's first transport test,how was he present at the fight they teamed up on BEFORE the league was formed?
2.since they use zeta-beams does that mean they know about the planet Rann?
3.If Roy refuses to be part of the team why is his designation B instead of A?
4.now that Zatanna has technically joined the team does it change her designation code?
5.in 119 was Billy not able to use the teleporter because he had'nt told the league who he really was and the designation was for Captian Marvel NOT Billy Batson?

Greg responds...

1. I never said it was the LEAGUE'S first transport test. It wasn't. It was a Zeta-Beam accident that took place during an experiment conducted by Dr. Erdel (the namesake of the Erdel Initiative where Adam Strange and Eduardo Dorado, Sr. work). This was in 1955, i.e. almost half a century before the founding of the Justice League in 2003.

2. By now, you know the answer to that question.

3. Wishful thinking.

4. Yes. In fact, her designation has changed twice: once after she joined the Team and then again when she joined the League.

5. Exactly.

Gracie writes...

I'm just curious, is the fact that both seasons of Young Justice start on a holiday due to pure coincidence, or is it a pattern that you wanted to make?

Also, and I'm not sure if this is a spoiler so I apologize if it is, since Young Justice: Invasion takes place in the year after season 1, will the timestamps have a way to differentiate between years, or should the audience just be able to assume that the next season takes place in the next year? It's a weird question, but I've been wondering this for a while. xD

Greg responds...

1. Pattern.

2. By now, you've seen it. Our feeling was that Season One told a story between July 4th and December 31st, while Season Two told a story that took place between January 1st and July 4th. So there wasn't likely to be any confusion after the first "FIVE YEARS LATER" chyron. It gets slightly more complicated in the Young Justice: Invasion comic books, because we'll be constantly bouncing back and forth between Season One, Season Two and within the timeskip. So starting with issue #20, the timestamp gets an additional piece of information to disclose the year.

How is Kaldur's relationship with his parents?
Is Kaldur'am a momma's boy?
Is there anyone in Atlantis who crush on Kaldur?
Is Kaldur a ladies' man?
I ask this because he has a lot of female fans.

Greg responds...

1. During Season One, quite solid. During Season Two, they're estranged - to protect them.

2. Not particularly.

3. Probably there was, before he (seemingly) betrayed the kingdom.

4. Not particularly.

5. Good.

What powers does Captain MArvel Have? are they his usual s.h.a.z.a.m. ones? Also, will Captain Atom ever get any speaking lines, or is he mostly a background charater and/or can't talk? If he does have future lines, who is his voice actor?

Greg responds...

1. Basic SHAZAM powers, yeah.

2. By now, you've hopefully seen that Michael T. Weiss is the voice of Captain Atom.
