Does La'gaan ever give M'gann the respect she deserves by calling her by her given name? The fact that he's always calls her "angelfish" makes me think that he views her as a possession rather than a human being (well, a Martian, but hopefully you get my point).

I hopes he's not the typical rebound guy who acts like a jerk. Because, right now, I'm wondering if it was your intention to make La'gaan as unlikeable as possible to the fans.

Greg responds...

Gee, that seems like a truly odd interpretation of that particular habit.

First off, La'gaan has and does call her M'gann sometimes. So... pay attention.

Second, "Angelfish" is a TERM OF ENDEARMENT. She likes it. This notion that it means he views her as a "possession" - well, frankly, I don't even understand the logic of that. How does that follow? I have a pet name for my wife - which in private I use interchangeably with her given name - and I can say with real confidence that she feels it brings us closer, because it's something personal we share.

Feels to me like you're REACHING for reasons not to like Lagoon Boy. It's perfectly legit not to care for him, but there's no need to invent reasons.

Does Sportsmaster have a favorite daughter?

Greg responds...

No. He may think that Jade has slightly more common sense, but let's give him credit for this much as a parent: he holds both his offspring in equal measure of adoration. (That is, pretty much none.)

Sorry for the multiple posts in a row...I would have put this question in with the first, but the rules say to make seperate posts for differant topics (but I swear this is the last one for today) so here goes:
What was the reasoning behind not giving Artemis the "Tigress" persona, whether or not she eventually becomes a villianess...

Was it to keep at least one thing true to her origional character? Brcause that was her name when you wrote about her and you dont like other peoples ideas? You just like the name better? Other reason?

Personally, I usually detest the idea of writers making hero monikers rxactly the same or similar to given names...but im also a HUGE Greek mythology buff, so I dont mind it much this time, im just curious about your (was it your...?) decision.

Thank you for all of your time spent.

Greg responds...

By now, I assume your question is moot.

I didnt include these questions in my last post, lest the entire thing get deleted again, as they may encroach "spoiler reqest" territory maby a smidge further...

1. WAS there an origional "James" Harper? (its establised that hes a clone, but not of whome).
2. Did he (Guardian) ever find out who he was really working for?
3. Are he and Dublex still in contact?

Thanks again.

Greg responds...

1. There was. But OUR Jim Harper is a clone of Jim's descendent Roy Harper, not of the original Jim Harper.

2. Yes.

3. SPOILER REQUEST. NO COMMENT.

Why do you guys just love to kill Artemis and bring her back?

Greg responds...

You make it sound like she's the only one we've done that to.

Weird question but:
Did Artemis lose her "abs" over the 5 year time-skip? Her original character design had two lines on her abdomen to indicate abs, but they weren't present in Depths. Was this intentional?

Greg responds...

You'd have to ask character designer Phil Bourassa.

1.Near the end of Depths we see the current team and Zatanna and Rocket at the cave grieving over the death of Artemis. Can you tell us who on the current team knew Artemis?
2. What are Wally and Artemis studying at college?
3. Was Artemis a known sidekick during the 5 year time gap to the public? I'm just wondering because Superboy didn't appear to be in Salvage to the guard.

Greg responds...

1. They all did. Not necessarily as Teammates, but they've ALL socialized.

2. I think Wally's double majoring in Physics and Chemistry (or something like that). I like to think Artemis is majoring in Comparative Literature. But Brandon and I have not discussed any of this, and I wouldn't want to commit without conferring with him.

3. No, to your question, but I really don't understand your "because..." statement at all.

Did you have Beatrice and Benedict in mind when you created the Wally-Artemis dynamic?

Greg responds...

Shrug. I suppose it'd be cool to answer yes, but the truth is - and I'm not pretending otherwise - it's a pretty common trope, and mostly what we had in mind was Wally and Artemis and tracking how they'd react as individuals.

I'm a huge fan of Young Justice, and the last episode, Depths, is definnitely my favorite episode this season, and possibly my favorite overall. However, there were a few things that weren't quite clear to me.

1. When Artemis "dies", Superboy says he can't hear her heart beating. Artemis' heart was obviously still beating though, so how was it that Superboy couldn't hear it?

2. Why does Wally know all the details of Nightwing, Kaldur, and Artemis' undercover mission? I know he's one of Nightwing and Kaldur's oldest friends and Artemis' boyfriend, but it doesn't really seem necessary for him to know everything, especially with the rest of the Team and the League still in the dark.

Greg responds...

1. Her heart was greatly slowed by the Juliet pill she munched down on.

2. ASKED AND ANSWERED.
