You mentioned that Wonder Woman became a superhero in 1941, when she was 16 years old. As Pinja said, that's no older than the physiologically oldest members of the Team (in 2011). At that age, I don't think that that many people would have taken her seriously enough to call her a "woman". So was "Wonder Woman" her first superhero name or did she start her superhero career being called "Wonder Girl"?

Greg responds...

It's an appealing notion, but I think it more likely that she was dubbed "Wonder Woman" by the press. Perhaps the first photo of her was taken at a distance, and they didn't realize how old she was or wasn't. (She is an Amazon, and was tall for her age.)

Can Parasite absorb Red Tornado's power, or is he restricted to organic beings?

Greg responds...

Hmmm...

I'd think organic only. But I honestly hadn't considered it until this second.

Superboy is sexy writes...

When Superboy was being "educated", was there any anti-gay stuff being "taught" to him? Such as, if Miss Martian was never introduced, would Superboy have been attracted to, say Kid Flash?

Greg responds...

There wasn't any "anti-gay" stuff. But Superboy's not gay, so, no.

I don't for a second believe that one's sexual orientation has anything to do with "education".

In the end of the Season One finale, Superman finally decided to accept Superboy and started the "father/son" relationship by telling Superboy his own secret identity as Clark Kent. Five years later, in Season Two, Superman and
Superboy's relationship has grown to the point where they treat each other like brothers instead of father and son. As their relationship strengthened during the five-year gap, has Superman told Superboy everything about himself?

Greg responds...

"Everything" is a big world, but most of everything, certainly.

I have a whole slew of questions about Zeta-Beam transport. I doubt I can bring it down to five...

1. Why do the Cave and the Watchtower have two portals next to each other? Also, the Cave has two portals, and the Watchtower at least three. Is this for logistic reasons, or does the Watchtower have no elevators?
2. What's the maximum capacity of a tube? On multiple occasions, three people entered at the same time. Could the entire League fit, or is that why there's two portals next to each other?
3. Because we'll possibly never definitively learn with the time skip, and the comics won't reach December for another two years: was Rocket's designation B09?
4. In Misplaced, Billy had to speak an override code before being scanned, but on all other instances (the phone booth, the TARDIS, the main portals) the computer scanned people as soon as they were in range. What if a stranger entered the booth, would he/she be scanned?
5. Is the Manhattan portal under the bridge in "Secrets" only an exit? It doesn't look practical for an entrance.

Greg responds...

1. Why do some buildings have multiple elevators? To handle the traffic.

1a. The Watchtower has elevators.

2. I'm sure there's a limit. It also has to do with the number of destinations.

3. Yes. (Which I'm NOT revealing here. It was already revealed in the comics.)

4. Scans take place automatically, silently and without any visible sign that they are taking place. If the computer doesn't recognize the subject (as with Billy in "Misplaced") it says nothing, unless a code is spoken, asking for a follow-up scan.

5. It's both.

Sandman writes...

1. Is the show's Sandman based on the Golden Age version of a Bruce Wayne-lookalike, or the Sandman Mystery Theatre-version of a bespectacled investment banker?
2. What year was he born, does he still live, and if not, when did he die?
3. Did Sandy the Golden Boy (or any of the Golden Age sidekicks) exist, or was Robin truly the first kid sidekick?

Greg responds...

1. SPOILER REQUEST. NO COMMENT.

2a. 1914.

2b and c. SPOILER REQUESTS. NO COMMENT.

3. SPOILER REQUESTS. NO COMMENT.

Greg just want to start off by saying i love young justice and gargoyles and i still watch some gargoyles to this day. My question is why did the writers primarily decide to make Superboy and Miss Martian the only characters that really get focus and are in every episode?
In season 1 once in a while Aqualad or Artemis would get an episode even Wally but Wally and robin barely did anything. Now we skip into season 2 and Wally is retired and Grayson is team leader but only seems to make cameo apperances. You mentioned season 3 if it happens will have another time skip i assume Nightwing will probably be gone but i was just hoping that the guy would actually have important story lines before he is gone. The other character also i feel should get some type of importance it feels like the Superboy/Miss Martian and friends show.

Greg responds...

I don't buy into the premise of your question. Even a little.

Since you have confirmed the ice villains involvment in the Ice Fortress incident, I must ask you...
1) Who was on Ice Fortress-1?
2) Who was on Ice Fortress-2?
3) Who was on Ice Fortress-3?
4) Who was on Ice Fortress-4?
5) Who was on Ice Fortress-5?

Greg responds...

If you're asking which ice villain was on which Fortress, my answer is... "Yeah, I don't care. Knock yourself out."

Sizzle Shorts writes...

I have another Blue Devil related question for you Greg. Blue Devil was considered for membership by the League, but did not join (at least not before the time skip). Why did the Justice League decide not to invite him? It's clear why Guy Gardner and the members of The Team weren't invited, but for what reason did they pass on Blue Devil? Was it because he was too inexperienced, or because none of the Justice League members knew him very well? Or was Blue Devil invited after all, but he declined to join? It would be very in character for him if he did decline.

Greg responds...

I think they felt - at that time, that he was too inexperienced. Later, I think he declined.

Your comments regarding Megan's ethnicity are very interesting. Do you see her feeling towards her green martian form are more in alignment with how a post op transexual feels about their new body?(I.E This was always who she was) Or do you think it's more alignment with some very dark skinned women bleaching their skin because they feel unattractive by western ideas of beauty? It seems like you could go either way here.

Greg responds...

It seems you could. But I don't think Green or White skin is the point. I think her human Megan Wheeler inspired form is the point.

Something i've been curious about in 119 when Batman freed himself from Thorn's vines as he lands we see Faust launching energy blasts at someone off screen so was he still fighting Red Tornado, or had that fire blast he used at the beginning of the fight already knocked him out?

Greg responds...

From memory, I think he was still fighting Tornado.

I'm confused you said Megan/M'gann is the daughter of a female green martian and a male white martian-
so if she's part green why were full greens being jerks to her 24/7?
is intercolor marrige common(i mean has it ever happened besides this)?
so technically is she's part green she was'nt really lying about who/what she was?
so J'onn is aware she IS his sisters daughter right?

Greg responds...

1. Compare the trials and tribulations of mixed race children in almost every society on our world.

2. Not common, no. But not unheard of.

3. By Martian standards, she was.

4. Yes.

1. So the reason Guardian was in a trance-like state in the Season One finale was because he was a clone of the real Jim Harper all that time?

2. Catherine Cobert appears to have an accent. What is her nationality?

3. How does Paula Crock feel about her daughter's relationship with Wally West?

Greg responds...

1. Nope. It's because he was a clone of ROY Harper, and they had used his pre-programmed code word to shut him down.

2. She's French.

3. Happy, generally.

Hi again greg, If I remember correctly, it's been established that Martians age 1 year for every 3 earth years, New gods from Apocolips and New genesis are ageless, Lords of chaos and order are ageless, Amazons are immortal and Superboy currently can't age visibly.
1. This made me wonder if there were any other aliens or metahumans that age at a different rate than humans or have a longer lifespan, such as maybe Rannians, Genomorphs and Clayface since he got his powers from overexposure to the Lazarous pits.
2. Back in infiltrator, Robin used an override code to get past the security at Wyne Tech. If I'm correct, the code RG4 consists of his initials (Richard Grayson)and 4 would either mean that he's the 4th person to have a similar override code or he has 3 more for other uses. If it's the first case, would the 3 other people be Bruce Wayne, Lucius Fox and Alfred Pennyworth?
3. In the episode Salvage, when Superboy said he could relate to the Appellaxian Golem when it said through blue beetle that it wanted to end the pain and essentially destroy itself, does that imply Superboy has contemplated suicide at one point? I just want to be sure about whether or not that was the case.
Thank you for your time and I hope the long queue isn't too tough on you.

Greg responds...

Amazons are only immortal (i.e. unaging) on Themyscira. If they leave the island, they age normally.

1. I'm sure there are, but I'm not going to go down a list. Clayface though is kept alive by a morphic field. This may grant him a certain immortality as long as the field survives. No telling whether or not the field may break down over time.

2. Possibly...

3. The "noise" that came with "birth" was the part of the Golem's speech that Superboy identified with.

1.-Does the pouch on Lagoon boy's ankle contain anything or is it just decorative, and can he grow hair? i've noticed something that looks like a ponytail in some shots.
2-Did you give any thought to the tool on Tigress' back in her holo-mug shot?, if so would you mind sharing?
3-Is the orange suit Aquaman wears armor? because manta's laser sure ut throught it easily.

Greg responds...

1. It's not just decorative, but what he carries in there depends on what he feels he needs at any given time.

1a. No hair. That's a fin pony-tail.

2. I'm sure Phil did.

3. It's mail. But that doesn't make it invulnerable.

My questions are about the "kiss" of MM and SB in issue 15.
* Would she have done the same for Wally or Robin?
* How long were they liplocked until SB got a new breather?
* Did they feel awkward afterwords?
* Did they discuss it at all (afterwords)?

Greg responds...

1. Of course.

2. On and off.

3. Probably.

4. Definitely NOT. (I mean maybe MONTHS afterward, but not until after they were an actual couple.)

Legacy & Boomerang

I'm currently sitting in the Control Room at L.A. Studios while voice director Jamie Thomason records Mark Rolston as Lex Luthor for YOUNG JUSTICE LEGACY. Later today: Eric Lopez, Jesse McCartney and Cameron Bowen. More to come next week after I get back from visiting my daughter in New Orleans.

Also, James Harvey at Worlds Finest is reporting that reruns of YJ and YJ:I will be appearing on Boomerang:

http://www.worldsfinestonline.com/2012/10/29/young-justice-confirmed-joining-boomerang-line-up-starting-november-2012/

This is good news, and I'm guessing must be a direct result of fan response to the latest hiaturs.

Hi Greg,
This isn't a question, so I understand that it might be deleted, but I have no other way of contacting you, so I thought I might give it a shot.
I just wanted to thank you for an amazing show. You and Brandon have done an amazing job, along with everyone else who works on Young Justice. It's beautifully done, and I love it to the point of perhaps unhealthy obsession, but I like to think I'm just a really, really, really big fan.
I'm sure you don't remember this, but I came to your signing on Free Comic Book Day at Meltdown Comics, and I just wanted to let you know that that was a truly amazing moment for me. You are one of my biggest heroes, and the Young Justice issue you signed along with the photo my dad took of me with you are now two of my most prized possessions.
I can't wait for the rest of the season, and I'd just like to let you know that you have made one thirteen-year-old girl very, very, very, very happy.
And one more thing that actually is a question:
In an interview with IGN, you said: "Tune in and give us some huge ratings! Who knows, maybe it'll happen? Maybe we'll get that third season sooner than later!"
Where could we give you huge ratings, or who could we write to strongly advise that you get a third season?
Thanks for answering all these questions and being so patient with us!
P.S. You and Vic also did a great job on Mecha-nation! It's amazing!

Greg responds...

Thank you for the very kind words.

I do remember that Meltdown moment.

Ratings are determined at time of viewing. Really by people with Nielson boxes in their homes, though in theory, the more people watching, the more Nielson people watching. You can always express your fondness for the show directly to Cartoon Network.

Thanks again.

3. Their life-span is long, assuming no catastrophic injury.

Kevin writes...

Each member of the Light seems to represent a certain sphere of influence, Lex Luthor being business, the Brain science, Klarion magic, Queen Bee politics, Ocean Master the sea, with Vandal Savage representing experience as befits a leader or first among equals. My question is what Ra's Al Ghul's sphere of influence is and do you agree with this assessment?

Greg responds...

To a certain extent, yes. That was part of the equation. But not all of it. And there's some obvious overlap too.

Ra's represents the underworld, specifically the League of Shadows.

Does the Speed Force exist in Young Justice? I was confused by the character profiles that came out because I was certain that it did not, but Barry Allen's profile said his suit was Speed Force resistant.

And I don't know what "profiles" you're referring to.
