Happy to see Black Spider back in action in the latest season of Young Justice. Given how his skill set is so different from the comic Black Spider, who's idea was it to make the show's incarnation Peter Parker's evil twin? With how similar Black Spider is to Spectacular Spider-Man, even sharing the same voice actor, did any of the higher ups attempt to stop the character's creation in fear of upsetting some lawyers?
Greg responds...
1. It was my idea, basically. But I disagree that he's that different from the comic Black Spider. Admittedly, there have been multiple interpretations of that character, even multiple individuals who have used that name. But classically, he was always a Spider-Man pastiche.
2. Nope. The existing DC character seems to have given us cover.

How hard is it to clean up Black Spider's webs?
Greg responds...
What's the rule? After an hour, they just dissolve?

Hey Greg I'm a big fan of how the Martian race is depicted in YJ that they have a less human looking natural form, that they have less shared powers with Kryptonians and the world building for them.
1) If it's not a spoiler request when between seasons did Conner and Gar first meet M'gann's folks?
2) Did J'onn meet M'aatt before he got sent to Earth or after he first came back to Mars?
3) I couldn't help but notice how excited M'aatt looked when he spoke about building an alter with Conner. Am I right in guessing this was either the first time he got to do so or he didn't get to do this for a lot of his G'arrunn kids?
4)I'm admittedly not the most well read individual but I know enough pop culture to tell you guys drew on a lot of different inspirations for the Martian race and culture. What were the main influences?
5) Did M'gann have any other default forms between seasons before settling on the one in Phantoms?
Greg responds...
1. Pretty soon after the end of Season Two.
2. Before.
3. I'm forced to answer No Spoilers to this.
4. There may have been fewer than you think, at least consciously. We made decisions back in Season One about what the Martian powers would be, what the Martian castes were and where Martians lived on Mars. As you noted, some of those decisions were made to differentiate Martians and Kryptonians. Brandon and I felt that when the Manhunter from Mars was first introduced, his species was quite distinctive. But over time - adding things like Martian vision, turning fire into his kryptonite, making him the last surviving Martian, etc. - he became a Superman knock-off. We also weren't fans of the idea that there was an entire Martian race that was just BORN EVIL!! So we made decisions that felt better for us. This season, we then extrapolated off those decisions to bring our version of M'arzz to life. I'm sure there were influences, including from DC Comics and Edgar Rice Burroughs and others, but they were less conscious for us. It was more about pushing forward on decisions we had already made.
5. No spoilers. But the answer is basically no.

No origin spoilers.

Is it safe to say that there's a lot of terrible parenting associated with the Light and/or the League of Shadows?

Just Some Thoughts and Questions on Artemis Through The Looking Glass.
1. The ending excerpt about Trust and Belief from Through the Looking-Glass, and What Alice Found There was just perfection, I am really loving these Literature themed episodes.
2. What made you guys decide on the Amazing-Man and Onyx connection, If my Knowledge is correct I think this purely an Earth-16 thing.
3. Jade was referencing Wally right with the whole talk about how things have been difficult and Second Chances?
4. I love how Artemis is still trying to convince Jade to comeback and segues to it so easily every time.
5. I like how you guys continue to show Beast Boy going through trauma and not simply finishing that problem within 20 minutes.
6. One thing that seems odd to me Jade is worried about the Contract that the League of Shadows put on her for betraying them to save Red Arrow, But Red Arrow was also a member of the Shadows so why isn't he concerned about having a contract on him.
7. The photo That Will put up on the Wall taken just before the events of Usual Suspects right?
Greg responds...
1. Thanks. Credit the idea for doing that at all to Brandon Vietti.
2. We wanted to give Onyx some history to fall back on within the Earth-16 DCU. We felt that by the end of the arc, it would add poignancy and depth.
3. If I'm reading your question correctly, then, yes.
4. I don't know how easy those segues are, but she manages it.
5. We received invaluable advice on this from Dr. Janina Scarlet. Check out her website and podcasts: http://www.superhero-therapy.com
6. No spoilers. Ask me again in 2023 if it's still not clear.
7. Yep.

Do any of the 'fictional cities', such as Gotham, Metropolis, and Dakota, have major sports teams? Such cities in fiction are often shown with their own hockey, baseball, basketball, or American Football teams and I'm curious if you ever thought of that.
If they do exist, are the respective sports league larger or do they replace an existing team?
Greg responds...
1. In fact, we have given some thought to that. I should answer with no spoilers, but I'll just simply say the answer to your question is yes. But I'll provide no further details for now.
2. I'm going to say the Leagues are larger, i.e. have more teams, because I wouldn't want to take away a real world team to replace it with a fictional world team. So we'd just add on. (In even numbers.)
Crossoverparinglover writes...
I've never seen this answered before, but the votes in Agendas, how did they line up?
I've always been curious how close, say, Dr. Fate and Billy B were to being expelled, or how far say, Rocket was from league membership.
(If that level of exacts is too much, be free to just specify who was close and who was a blow out one way or another)
I know that of the stuff we don't get shown in Eps 25 that Blue Devil apparently did get nominated but turned the invitation down, but I'm curious on more. That scene's always one that has stuck around with fans and is endlessly fascinating.
Greg responds...
Blue Devil was nominated but didn't get enough votes to make the cut in Team Year Zero. Obviously, he did subsequently.
Otherwise, I think there was surprising unanimity on all candidates. I'm not saying that every candidate got the EXACT same amount of votes from the exact same people. But there were no big divides on any of them.
Suzie writes...
I have only one question. Now I have a pretty good idea what was said, but after all this time I just want official confirmation. When Wally was finally told about Miss Martian and Superboy's relationship what exactly did Artemis whisper in his ear when she told him. Word for Word please.
Greg responds...
I'll leave that to your imagination. Word for word.
