1. Were you amazed by any of your voice actors for Young Justice? Because I read somewhere online that you were pretty impressed with Khary Payton and Jesse McCartney's voice.

2. I noticed in various footage and images of Young Justice that Kid Flash had the original spandex outfit when fighting Captain Cold with his mentor, But in another image he had shoulder pads and protective gear. Does Kid Flash end making changes to his outfit later on in the series?

3. I know you probably won't or can't answer this but I just have to ask, Can Kaldur'ahm manipulate water without using those swords? I just called them swords because I don't know what to call them.

4. Does Aqualad have a home of his own? You don't have to spoil it by saying names, Since his father's a villian, but if you can't say I'm okay with that.

5. Will you reveal who the Artemis character is before the show officially starts in January 2011 or will we have to wait to til then?

8. Does any of the team members know Aqualad or Artemis's secret identities?

7. Is Aqualad best friends with somebody on the team or is he more of a loner? Such as Robin and Kid Flash's best friend relationship.

8. I wish you, Brandon Vietti, Phil Bourassa and everyone working on Young Justice a Happy Thanksgiving, and Us fan's appreciate what hard work you guys put into your projects.

Greg responds...

1. I'm impressed with all our voice actors, including guys and gals I've worked with many times before. Khary's audition perhaps surprised me, because his Aqualad was just so different from Cyborg. He just nailed it. And having never worked with him before, I wasn't aware of his versatility.

2. Yes.

3. They are called Water-Bearers, and he does need them to do his thing. It's a combination of Atlantean science and sorcery. His mystic tattoos power the water-bearers which use water stored in his backpack or from some other source to create water weapons and/or manipulate water.

4. He lives in Atlantis most of the time.

8. They all know Aqualad's. It's not a secret. No comment on Artemis -- at least not until she appears in the series.

7. Kaldur's best friend is Garth back in Atlantis, but he gets along well with everyone on the Team.

8. Thank you.

Young Justice Pilot Movie Credits

One of my peeviest of pet peeves is the way ALL networks (and I'm afraid Cartoon Network is no exception) shrink credits down to nothing. Bad enough they're only on screen for a split-second each, but when they're so tiny that you can't even read them when you freeze-frame on them, I think that's beyond obnoxious. So I'm going to post the credits here after each airing...

Young Justice, twenty minutes and counting..

Hey gang,

The one-hour premiere of YOUNG JUSTICE is about to air at 7pm EST, less than twenty minutes from now. Those who receive Cartoon Network's East Coast feed can see it at the same time in their time zone. For example, I'm currently in Las Vegas with my in-laws, and we'll be watching it at 4pm PST.

It will also air on Cartoon Network's West Coast feed at 7pm PST.

Please WATCH!!!!! We think you'll like it!

In Young Justice, are we going to see police and some villians use real guns like in Batman: Brave and the Bold?

If yes, do you actually take your time and effort to draw them in great detail similar to the ones from Batman: Gotham Knight?

Greg responds...

I guess it depends on your definition of "great detail". They are as detailed as anything else in the series, based on our design style. They're not photo-realistic, but that's not the style of the series. But the style's more realistic than, say, SpecSpidey was. (Which is not a VALUE judgment, as I'm a huge fan of BOTH Sean and Phil.)

Hey, Greg love your work and I was wondering if you could spell Aqualad's name which I believe is suppose to be Atlantean.

Greg responds...

Come on, guys, check to see if a question has ALREADY been asked before posting it again.

Done and done.

(We are talking about Young Justice, right?)

Keeping Young Justice continuity straight...

All Young Justice television episodes and comic book issues will have captions stating place, month, day and time. So you can figure out EXACTLY where the comics fit - continuity-wise - relative to the television series and vice versa.

Young Justice Comic Book

FYI - Young Justice Staff Writer Kevin Hopps and I have written issue #0 of the Young Justice comic book, which will be in continuity with the television series, telling stories set either between episodes of the tv show and/or telling the same stories from different points of view. You don't have to watch the show to enjoy the comic or read the comic to enjoy the show, but I guarantee you'll get even more out of both if you take the time to experience both.

After issue #0, issues #1-6 will be writtien by Art Baltazar and Franco Aureliani to help us out while Kevin and I are swamped with the scripting, pre-production and post-production of the series. But Kevin, Brandon Vietti and I are advising Art & Franco and artist Mike Norton on Issues #1-6 to keep everything in continuity.

After that, Kevin Hopps and I will be taking over the writing chores on the Young Justice comic full time, starting with issue #7.

And by the way, Mike's art so far on the interior pages of issue #0 is just gorgeous!!

Hi Greg. I'm happy to hear you found a project after Spectacular Spider-Man (excellent show), and I'm even happier to learn it's DC. Two questions, though I understand if you can't answer them:

1.) Do you know whether you guys are locked into the same "65 and done" episode format that action cartoons have dealt with since the early 90's, or are you just focusing on this first season right now?

I ask because I believe this has the potential to be people's gateway into the DCU--but it would suck if the series were canceled after just over two seasons.

2.) I notice there are a lot of references about Young Justice trying to include as much of the DCU as possible. Plus I noticed DC even gave you guys an Earth (yay...they get some use now). I can't help wondering...is this by any chance the start of a new DC animated universe? Or is Young Justice just set in E16 and that's it?

Again, I understand if you choose not to answer these questions because they would give away something or you just don't know the answer to them. Thanks for your time.

Greg responds...

1. Pretty much just focused on the first season of 26 episodes, though we have PLENTY of ideas for both the comics and a second season (should we get a pick-up).

2. Let's not get ahead of ourselves.

Sage writes...

Okay, I'm fairly certain I've gotten all of my nerd rage about Young Justice out of my system, so I'll actually be more hyped to watch YJ than I was to watch Avengers, and I'm fairly certain it'll be great. Still, two questions are bugging me. Just a bit:

1.) I keep hearing that this is a "young DC Universe", but the proof of that is always that Clark Kent only became Superman ten years ago, and Bruce became Batman nine years ago. Doesn't that place this universe as fairly "old", since that would put the both of them near their 30's? This is probably kind of difficult to answer, I'm just curious as to how your timeline works--"New Earth" Superman and Batman are pretty much perpetually 35, but I'm guessing your Superman and Batman (and DCU) won't have that problem?

2.) Does it bug you at all that your premiere is next month, but the actual series doesn't start for (at best) two months? I was kinda happy the show was premiering on my birthday, but it bummed me out when I learned we wouldn't see anymore until 2011.

Greg responds...

1. I'm not too clear on the question. I realize that time is somewhat elastic by necessity in the current DC comic book universe. But if you look at it objectively, a Superman who is in his early thirties and has only been wearing the cape for a decade, with all the other heroes following after him makes our Earth-16 fairly young in continuity.

2. Doesn't bug me at all.
