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.

Just wanted to pop in and say thanks for Lian. Her fate in the mainstream comics is one of the things that made me stop reading the mainstream DC books....her appearance was a touching surprise. Thank you.

Greg responds...

You're welcome.

A simple question re the "Golem" from Salvage. Was it suppose to be a homage to Animal-Vegetable-Mineral Man?
thx.

Greg responds...

It was a homage to the Appellaxian Golems.

Hi, Greg, quick question. As season two goes on, i can't help but notice Megan's radically different personality. She's no longer the slightly naive Hello Megan fangirl, and is instead alot darker, thinking nothing of labotimizing others for her own gain.
First of all, why does no one call her out on it. Martian Manhunter was right there, telepathically linked the guy to boot.
Second, does her self-acceptance have something to do with this? In season one we see her afraid of having the others see her as a monster, but, now that she knows she doesn't have to worry about it anymore, is she now turning into one?
If I see you've answered this, then thanks a ton! If you don't, well, do it anyway ;). Thanks!

Greg responds...

First of all, if you look carefully, you'll see that Manhunter had severed his link just before Miss Martian did her thing.

Second, I'll leave to your interpretation.

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.

First of all i just wanted to say... great first season and even better second season. Young Justice is the favorite in my household and its one of few shows that holds my two year old attention for its entirety. My question is, whether it be the month or the quarter, when would you hope to get word on a third season for YJ? I can't imagine that this show would not be on for years to come.

Greg responds...

There's no set time when they make these decisions.

I'm curious but does the possibilities for third season look bleak? Or does discussions for the future of Young Justice sound encouraging? Just wondering as I hope that this show goes beyond season 2.

And finally, if the show gets cancelled, do you plan to continue where Invasion left off in some other form of media? Like a webseries or a comic book? Perhaps maybe on another network. Thank you so much. I'm a huge fan of Young Justice =)

Greg responds...

None of this stuff is up to me. The comic book is - at least for now - ongoing. The series is too. We haven't even aired half of the second season yet. Beyond that, we'll have to wait and see...

Hi! First off, I would like to say that I am a HUGE fan of your work, especially with Young Justice, and now Young Justice: Invasion.My favorite episode of the new season so far has to be Salvage, because it had everything that I had been waiting to see. I also want to thank you for bring Lian into Earth-16. It really makes me happy to see her.

I checked the que and the archives, and i didn't see any of these questions, so herewe go:

1) What bree is Wally and Artemis's dog? What's his/her name?

2) How long have Jade and Roy been married?

3) How old is Lian when Jade brings her to meet Roy?

4) Are you aware of all the 'Shipping' names for the various couples on the show?

Thank you so much for making such a wonderful show, and for taking time to answer our questions.Oh, and have a nice day!

Greg responds...

1. Pit Bull.

1a. Well, Stephanie's dog is named Brucely, so maybe on Earth-16...

2. SPOILER REQUEST. NO COMMENT.

3. Under a year old.

4. ALL of them? Probably not.

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.

Harmony writes...

I know he's obsessed with finding the real Speedy, but underneath his obsession, is Roy suicidal? Has he contemplated taking his own life during the past 5 years?

Greg responds...

There's a self-destructive edge, certainly. But his obsession doesn't allow for actual thoughts of suicide.

Hi Greg, First of all Im a huge fan of young justice, all production aspects of the show are mindblowing. How do you produce such a quality level product on a weekly basis is beyond me, congratulations to all of the staff for their hard work. Secondly Im a huge fan of spectacular spiderman, seeing it cancelled was so dissapointing , but even worse was the show you got replaced with , Ultimate spiderman. Now there is news of the Avengers series being cancelled , to be replaced with a show of similar tone than ultimate spiderman, with the reason that Marvel wants a show focused on stand alone episodes than storyarcs. My question is, why great shows, that respect their source material with great voice acting and stories get cancelled, while other shows that talk down to their audience and have weak story lines are still on the air? I really really hope Young Justice stays for many years to come, its an example of how good shows are made. Thank you and all your team for your efforts everyday, keep up the good work

Greg responds...

I don't have an answer... other than the BIG ALWAYS ANSWER: RATINGS.

If the Powers That Be believe that they can get better ratings in their target demographic by doing a different kind of show, that's the kind of show they'll order.

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.

1-Whose idea are the classic literature references?(ex-jabberwock,cricket)
Asuuming invasion episodes make DVD-
1-do you get to add any input?
2-if the answear is no-if you could would you add translated subtitles to the non english(ex krolotean/rannian)words or you like to imagine viewers guessing?

Greg responds...

1. Generally, but not exclusively, mine.

1. It's not up to me whether or not I get input. So far, I haven't. But if they ask for input, I'll be happy to give it.

2. We put in subtitles where we wanted them. Left them out where we didn't. It was always up to Brandon and myself.

1-Based on his build was Bibbo ever a boxer?
2-Does the mask affect how Karen changes size-in 103 the put it on before changing but did'nt return to normal size after the blast knocked it off.
3-Regarding beast boy-would he revert back to normal(non-simian)form if rendered unconcious?,and if he can turn into ET animals, has he ever tried a dinosaur?(a yes/no will do)

Greg responds...

1. He's boxed. Also wrestled. But not professionally.

2. The blast didn't knock it off. She took it off because soot from the explosion had covered her goggles and she couldn't see. Beyond that, it feels like you answered your own question.

3a. No.

3b. He can only turn into real animals that he's had contact with.

If you find these questions in violation feel free to delete them but i will not be satisfied unless i ask
1-Why would Megan mention that she'd learned about the 16 hours while Alanna was there?-in that area the league are outlaws
2-How could the Krolotean possibly have been able to ID Karen,and Jaime in regular cloths?

Greg responds...

1. She didn't state whether the Leaguers were allies or enemies. But, having said that, I think eventually, Zeta Squad would have told Alanna and Sardath the truth of the situation.

2. He didn't identify Karen at all. And it wasn't Jaime that he identified, but he sensed that he was a Reach Warrior.

Regarding powers
1.If Lagoon boy's expansion power is magic induced and not genetic does he NOT have the power to generate and fire pufferfish quills.
2.Can the scarab armor let Jaime be under water without visible life support tools?
3.Are Kaldur's tatoos still visible?
4.Are Wonde Girls powers derived from any magic artifacts like in the original comics?

Greg responds...

1. Not on our series. At least not yet.

2. Yes.

3. Depends what he's wearing.

4. Not her powers, no. But her bracelets and lasso expands her repertoire.

Dear Greg,

Wow, the newest episode of YJ was great! I goota say, props to you and Brandon for coming up with a way to get Roy's addicted look without the addiction. Very nice. And thank you for showing Wally & Artemis, I was worried they might have switched sides or been killed or something. I thought it was sweet (and Artemis looks good in a jersey). Also, i like someone discovering the scarab talks to Jaime, and you even got in a reference to Ted Kord! Thank you! Please keep up the awesome!

Greg responds...

Who says there's no addiction?

They're mostly full-time college students. Which is not to say they don't have part-time jobs, but I haven't given any thought to it.

First of all, as a huge fan of DC comics lore, I want to thank you so much for including so much of DC's history in your show. It makes the show so much more enjoyable for me.

I was wondering how the writers choose the characters that are showcased in the show. I noticed you included a lot of lesser known characters in the DC universe such as Lagoon Boy, Blue Beetle and so on. How do the writers pick and choose with such a huge who's who list of superheroes and supporting characters to choose from?

Greg responds...

I don't think Blue Beetle would still be considered "lesser known".

Mostly, this question is ASKED AND ANSWERED. We had a "huge... list". We gave a great deal of thought to juggling powers, backstories, personalities, etc.

First off, I just wanted to thank you for being a part of what makes superhero cartoons awesome. I'm loving Young Justice/Invasion so far, and each episode just gets better.

I've just got one random question to ask that's been on my mind:

Did Dick go through a phase of resenting being Bruce's sidekick like in some continuities or has he always been happy to be a part of the Batfamily no matter what costume he wears?

Greg responds...

I'm not saying it was always 100% conflict free, but largely they're good, and have never had a major falling out. Resentment isn't really Dick's style.

Samantha writes...

Why did Wally decide to stop being a hero? Did Nightwing try to persuade him to continue with him?

Greg responds...

1. It's complicated. There isn't one single reason, one single event. It's cumulative. It involves things that took place over the five year gap (SPOILER REQUEST. NO COMMENT.), his relationship with Artemis and his general maturing as a human being. A choice to leave behind things that seemed extremely important to him as a child - and not so important as an adult. Also, keep in mind, Wally didn't decide to stop being a hero. Wally and Artemis together decided to stop being heroes.

2. Nightwing wants what's best for his friend. I'm not saying they didn't have a conversation or two. Or six. Or whatever, but...

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.
