I would like to ask if superman has gotten interested in batman's "dead parent's issue".

If so have they talked about Bruce's pain and trauma's?

1.-How common is kryptonite on earth 16?.

On some interpretation like smallville, it is so common that it is probably cheaper than a rock while in others kryptonite is so rare that only the richest of men like Bruce Wayne and Lex Luthor can afford to buy even a pebble.

2.-Is superman's vulnerability to kryptonite common knowledge in earth 16? or just known by a selected few?

I know you said in a few other questions that Ms. Martian was the only member of her family who had a "white" appearance. She also mentioned that she had 12 sisters, and that Martians stay close in large families through telepathy. So:

A) How close is she with her Martian family, now she's on earth? Does she write/communicate/keep in touch?

B) Was there any difference in her relationship with her father, compared to her siblings, because she faced the same prejudices He did?

C) How well did she get along with her siblings, was she especially close with any of them?

Also, I'm not sure if you plan on answering this in the show, so if it's not a spoiler request, why did Beast Boy develop powers after being bitten by a Green Monkey? Why not right away? And, would a bite from any other animal have done the same thing, or is there something special about green monkeys?

Thank you for taking the time to read and answer this.

Hey there, sorry if this has been asked before, I tried searching for it but I literally got hundreds of hits, so...

1) How come Earth has so many Green Lanterns? I read a little about the reason for it in the comics, but I'm wondering of the reason for it in Universe 16?

2) Why were John and Hal originally against Guy joining the Justice League?

After reading through some of the old answers you've given concerning M'gann, I'm curious as to her family dynamic and to general Martian culture. I'm asking these under the impression that we won't see any development on this front in the current season, because invasions are rather messy and time consuming.

1a. Because there is no hiding who they are, how did the general Martian population react to M'gann's parents? I assume they were generally socially rejected, but was there ever violence?
1b. How common are families like M'gann's--would she have met other people who have a similar background to hers?
2a. How did M'gann get the "Hello, Megan!" tv series? 2b. Is Earth culture, like television and films, commonly explored on Mars? I'd hate to have the Martians watching shows like "Jersey Shore" and thinking that was what all humans are like.
3. Was there a triggering event that led to M'gann coming to Earth, or did she just see an opportunity and take it?

Thank you in advance, and I'm sorry for the ridiculous amount of questions for one ask. I look forward to more wonderful YJ work from you and the team.

Hello, Mr. Weisman.

I had a few questions that pertain to the Nielsen's ratings system.

1. Why isn't there any public information about Nielsen's ratings for most of the animated series that have been on television? Classic cartoons and many of the modern ones have virtually no ratings tied to them. In the past few years, the figures have been released for programs that have performed well for cartoons, such as the animated series that currently air on Fox, Avatar: The Legend of Korra on Nickelodeon, Adventure Time on Cartoon Network not to mention Young Justice, as well as a few other programs on or were on the air.

2. Are networks allowed to request that the ratings for a show be withheld or simply not released to the public? In addition, why are the ratings released for some episodes of animated television programs, such as Young Justice or Scooby-Doo! Mystery Incorporated, while not being provided for others?

3. As someone who has worked on a variety of animated projects over the years, were you given the exact ratings of a program to work with? By that, I mean were the exact ratings made available to you, and if so, who provided them? Or was that information not provided? And did these particular ratings have any leverage on what would go in the animated universe?

4. What were the ratings like for your original animated series, Gargoyles? A search on Google turns up an article, http://www.highbeam.com/doc/1G1-15899915.html, which requires a subscription to read in full, reads:

"Walt Disney Television Animation's Gargoyles new animated show delivered a strong 2.8 Nielsen metered-market rating and an 8 share average over a special stripped debut Oct. 24-28. That was up 33% in share from its,"

5. Are you even allowed to discuss the ratings of an animated program, or is there a contractual obligation that prevents you (and others) from doing so?

Thank you for your time.
