Does anyone in your family play Assassin's Creed, Prince of Persia or Uncharted? I only asked because Nolan North had worked in those video games and that you casted him to voice Superboy on Young Justice.

What city is Young Justice going to be set?

Greg responds...

I don't think so.

Nolan was cast because his auditions for both Superman and Superboy were the best. It's not any more complicated then that.

And I'm NOT revealing details about YJ right now.

Hi Greg,

Will you see the teens origins as well as the villians in the Young Justice show. Like you did with The Spectacular Spiderman? Showing each villian being created and showing each teens development into heroes?

Greg responds...

You'll just have to wait and see...

(And, guys, I'll say this AGAIN: before you post your questions, you might just think about whether or not there's ANY chance I'll answer. I'm just NOT going to spoil my own show before it airs. I'm NOT.)

If you're familiar with my previous work, you may have a general idea of the kind of thing you can expect. But I'm not going to give details or specifics or confirm or deny whether we're doing X or Y or Z or Q.

Hi Greg,

Will you be the supervising director and writer for the show? Also I have another question, but I know you probably cant answer it. But its been driving me crazy to ask. I'm hoping you guys dont kill the new Aqualad character because he's such a cool looking character either it's the cartoon version or the comic version and since you were one of the creaters of the character did you expect the character to have such good feedback from the hardcore dc fans? Seriously every comic board that spoke about the new aqualad they all loved his look and intriguing obscure background story.You've stated in an interview that there were going to be 2 regulars added to the show in first season. So are you still going to be able to maintain the character driven storylines you've created in your previous shows without have too much on your plate. As you said that theres a 16 member Justice League and that this is really a DC Universe show. Will you still have the main focus on these six teens? As the JLU focused on many characters in the dc universe in different episodes which you never got to really grow to and love the characters as fans did with cartoons such as: Batman The Animated, The Spectacular Spiderman, Gargoyles, Superman The Animated Series, Batman Beyond and Static Shock they were all character driven shows. Will the show be similar in tone to the show?

Greg responds...

I'm one of two producers on Young Justice. I'm the writer producer and Brandon Vietti is the directing producer. But both of us work very hard on the entire product.

Has Aqualad had good feedback? Cool!

The focus for the entire season is absolutely on our six leads (Robin, Aqualad, Kid Flash, Superboy, Miss Martian, Artemis). And I think our show is very character driven. If you've seen my other work (Gargoyles, W.I.T.C.H., Roughnecks, Spectacular Spider-Man), you must know that I'm accustomed to juggling huge casts without losing focus.

But tone is something different. Every series has it's own unique tone. Or at least it should

Hey Greg,

Will Aqualad's mother be in the tv show, just as his father Black Manta will be? Also will the action sequences be as fluid and realistic as well as huge and intense as Gargoyles and The Spectacular Spiderman?

Greg responds...

No comment on Aqualad's mother.

As for the action, I sure hope so. That's certainly our intent: to equal or better the bars set by those and other great animated series.

Young Justice Stats

Statistics interest me. So I thought I'd share some with you guys. (Okay, yeah, I'm procrastinating. But it is my lunch hour, so sue me.)

We have completed (so far) 17 out or our 26 first season Young Justice Scripts. That is NOT the same as completing the episodes. We haven't completed a single episode yet. We don't start post-production until later this month. But we do have 17 scripts in the can.

As of episode 17, we have 147 name characters from the DC Universe. That's an average of introducing 8.6 DC characters per episode. Of course, the reality is that some episodes have introduced many more than that, others fewer. But that's the average.

Our average page count for each script is 33. Our average dialogue count is 235 lines.

We've completed recording on the first 13 episodes. (We've partially recorded episodes 114-116, but are missing a few actors still. We'll record 117 this coming Tuesday after Labor Day.) So the following statistics are only through episode 13:

Total number of actors we've used so far: 47.
Average number of actors we've used per episode: 11.
Of course many actors are in multiple episodes and many are performing more than one character.

Hmm... what else?

All 26 scripts have been assigned to writers. (All 26 premises were written and approved months ago.) As I mentioned above, 1-17 are in the can. Episode 18 is in script. Episodes 19-22 are in outline. Episodes 23-24 are in beat outline. 25-26 are approved premises, waiting in the wings.

We have seven writers, including myself, staff writer Kevin Hopps and our freelancers: Andrew Robinson, Nicole Dubuc, Jon Weisman, Tom Pugsley and Peter David. My fellow producer Brandon Vietti is also heavily involved in the writing process.

Okay, back to work...

Heya Greg! Let me be completely unoriginal and congratulate you on the upcoming Young Justice. I'll definitely be watching. So my question is the pretty simple yes-or-no type: Will you or anyone associated with the show be coming to NY Comicon? No worries if you can't say just yet, but I'd love to get more of a glimpse at what to expect, and of course to see you if I have the chance. Thanks for your time!

Greg responds...

I hope so, but I don't know yet.

Why is Miss Martian Martian Manhunter’s 16-year old niece, and not a White Martian?

Greg responds...

No comment.

(Or maybe just a suggestion to watch the series when it comes out.)
