I have some Youn justice questions

1.-Why Superman acted that way towards superboy?. If someone could understant superboy's predicament better than anyone is Clark.He is an orphan himself.He lose jor-el and Jonathan Kent.He losed two parents.I was a bit disapointed on him acting that way I espected more of big blue.

2.-Are you surprised how popular artemis despite the fact taht she hasn't officialy apperead in the show beyond the intro?.

Greg responds...

1. Personally, I think you're seeing things in a very black and white manner -- when this show is all about shades of grey. (Incidentally, I'm not using this question to confirm or deny anything at all about Superman's background on Earth-16.)

2. I didn't know she was popular before her intro. How does one measure that?

I searched some of the archives and I don't think you've answered this, but what was your main inspiration for the creation Thailog's character? He was definitely one of my most favorite antagonists in the show, as well as Demona and Xanatos.

P.S.
Young Justice was amazing! :)

Greg responds...

This HAS to be in the archives somewhere. But there were three immediate inspirations: (1) a mix session where the word Goliath kept getting played backwards (hence the word "Thailog"), (2) John Byrne's negative zone redesign of the costumes of the Fantastic Four (hence Thailog's color scheme) and (3) the amazing talent of Keith David (hence the desire to give him the shot at playing a villainous Goliath).

How was Miss Martian able to perfectly transform into Red Tornado when she said that it was difficult for her to transform into men?

ok let me anwser this one for you HE IS A ROBOT!!!!!!! PAY ATTENTION and stop asking stupid questions... OK now here is my question for greg..was it hard picking your cast for who would voice your characters???

Greg responds...

Hey King,

I really don't need YOU to be rude to folks here at ASK GREG. Not helping.

As for the casting, I've gone into this in detail before. So though your question isn't stupid by any means, it still bogs down the site, as you could have gotten the answer from the archives.

Greg responds...

Difficult isn't impossible, but also take a look at Red Tornado. There's considerably less detailed anatomy on the robot than on a human male.

Hey Greg,

I'm a huge fan of Spectacular Spider-man and I was heartbroken when it was cancelled. On the flip-side, I'm loving Young Justice, so I have to ask... If it weren't for Spidey getting cancelled, would you still be working on YJ?

Greg responds...

Probably not.

Hi Greg!

Greg responds...

I'm sure she'll be filled in.

So I'm watching "City of Stone" again, one of my favorite storylines, and I'm wondering, how on earth could a young MacBeth not realize Gillecomgain was the Hunter who killed his father?

I mean, clearly they know each other, and the Hunter is wearing a mask that has markings the exact same shape of Gillecomgain's giant scars. Doesn't seem like the best disguise.

Greg responds...

Asked and answered already. Check the archives.

Are you planning to create any more Gargoyles comics, like maybe one for Timedancer?

Greg responds...

I'd love to, but it's not up to me.

After zooming in on a screen shot from "Welcome to Happy Harbor," I noticed that some of Red Tornado's back story from the comics was on the lower left screen when Aqualad announces that Red Tornado is on his way to The Cave (The Elemental Wars and his time with the Leymen).

1a) Was this information scripted to be used or was it something cleverly injected by someone else?

1b) According to the Earth-16 timeline, when does the Elemental Wars and Leymen membership take place (i.e. 7 years ago)?

Greg responds...

1a. It was something NOT so cleverly injected without my knowledge by someone (whom I'm sure meant well) and was noticed to my dismay only after it was too late to fix. I was hoping no one else would notice it, but clearly that was too much to hope for. I'm officially disavowing it -- because I have no choice. It contradicts stuff we've already got planned for future episodes in the series.

1b. Hasn't happened. Whether or not it will happen: No comment.

Can you tell us who was the first (a) person, (b) being and (c) entity to figure out how to work the Phoenix Gate?
Greg responds...

Yes, I can."

Really, you can? I wouldn't think the term "first" could apply to the Phoenix Gate. And I'm not even being sarcastic (well, maybe just a little), but how can something in an infinite loop ever be said to have a beginning or end? Perhaps there's an earliest time it appeared, but odds are it was taken there by someone else, who may have taught this "earliest" person how to use it- in which case, could (s)he really be said to be the first person to have used it? I'm interested in this- do you think of there being a beginning to something like the Phoenix Gate? Or am I just reading way too much into an off-the-cuff smartass remark?

Greg responds...

Mostly, yeah, you're reading too much into it...

BUT.. haven't I already answered this? The first entity to figure out how to work the Gate was the entity that bound the Phoenix IN the Gate.
