Good evening Mr Weisman
I just wanted to thank you for the wonderful series of Young Justice, it is quiet rare for me to enjoy a series much less become so absorbed by the characters. I usually stick to my books. I have been a fan of The Batfamily for a while now and think the way your take on the characters are amazing. I love how Dick has matured into the adult he is and how Tim is quiet, I have read a few of the other questions about how quiet Tim is but to be honest I like that he is as he strikes me as the think before I talk kind of person. I was so incredibly happy when Jason was mentioned as not many shows do that so for me that was a huge bonus. I must admit in the first season Fireworks when Robin said 'Pass! Batcave's crowded enough.' I was already picturing Tim and Jason there.
I do have two questions for you and if they are spoilers I am very sorry.
1) Why are there no finger stripes on the Nightwing suit? I know many shows don't do them anymore but I was wondering why. Are they impractical or did you just not want to add them?
2) Did Barbara always know that Dick was Robin or did she find out after she became Batgirl? If that is a spoiler then
I am sorry.

Greg responds...

1. That's really a question for Phil Bourassa.

2. She didn't ALWAYS know.

Followup question from a few months ago -- I asked: "Okay, so the League definitely knows that Lex Luthor is a member of the Light at this point. So how's he getting away with openly running a major corporation?" You answered: "How do they stop him?"

To which I suggest: Violence (a la Arsenal)? Sabotage? Leveraged takeovers? Filing with the SEC? Large-scale theft of office supplies?

Right, yes, being a bit silly here, obviously. (just a bit.) And superheroes don't go beyond the law, of course (well, err, past the whole being-vigilantes thing). Still - just curious as to how Luthor has managed to pull off his whole villain-with-good-publicity schtick. And why hasn't Batman and/or the team tried hitting Luthor's bottom line at some point? Wouldn't it make sense strategically, given that they're the League's dirty-business department?

Greg responds...

Again, I ask "How"?

Look, you're assuming they're doing nothing, which is not a safe assumption. We aren't depicting the "ALL-ENCOMPASSING ADVENTURES OF THE JUSTICE LEAGUE" on our series. We're showing you the "SELECTED ADVENTURES OF THE TEAM". We're telling a specific story. Not even pretending to cover every facet of Earth-16, although believe me, given enough episodes or issues or WHATEVER, I'd love to try.

Why don't I appear in more episodes? I am drop dead gorgeous. I have the sexiest/most bad ass voice of all women, and I could bring all of the male heroes to their knees (or am I assuming too much?). I should rule the entire Eath-16, not just some dusty wasteland. You are hereby enthralled to place me as the rightful star of you show.

Greg responds...

Doesn't work long distance.

But seriously, this raises an issue that's relevant for literally every character in the series, I'd warrant. No matter how much screen time we devote to any single character, there will be someone out there who wants more. And no matter how little screen time we devote to any one character, there will be someone out there who wants less. There's just no way we can give every character as much screen time as we'd like - let alone as much as every single fan would like. It's just not possible. So, particularly in Season Two, story is dictating screen time. You may not care for our decisions, but they weren't made thoughtlessly.

I know you've said you can't actually show LGBT characters on the show, but I think I saw you said that there was one who was just closeted. Would you ever "out" this character outside the show itself? Or would you not be allowed to? I think it's pretty horrible that you aren't allowed to have LGBT characters, it's the 21st Century and considering how isolating being young and gay can be, with no role models it can be incredibly difficult! But I understand this is not your fault.

Greg responds...

We show LGBT characters on the show all the time. We just can't acknowledge it. There's a difference. And I never said the LGBT characters on the show were closeted. I never said anything one way or the other about whether or not they were closeted - or at least, I don't remember saying anything about it. A character like Marie Logan can be out as far as she's concerned, without mentioning it out loud on the series.

And, there. I think I've just answered your question. (See also: Lexington.)

hi, first i wanted to tell you that i love young justice.
but i had a question about the terms meta gene and meta human. i learn greek at school (old greek). and i learned the word μετα (sounds like meta). it means "with" or "before". and i was wondering, does this has to do something with the terms "meta human" and "meta gene" in young justice?

Greg responds...

I honestly don't know. These were both existing DC Universe terms that we brought into the series from the comics. It's a really good question though. When I think of the term meta-fiction, it certainly means something entirely different to me than the way DC (and we) have been using meta. I don't know who came up with the term in the first place, but I wonder if they weren't confusing meta- with mega- or something. But maybe I'm missing something.

YOUNG JUSTICE: INVASION: EPISODE: 218: "Intervention": Premieres!

It's now or never: can the Team rescue and redeem Blue Beetle - over the somewhat impressive objections of Green Beetle and the Reach?!! We're in the home stretch, now, folks. Every episode counts toward the ultimate future of the human race!!

Watch "Intervention" on DC Nation, this coming Saturday, March 2nd, 2013 (and rerunning Sunday, March 3rd, 2013), along with another episode of Green Lantern and more DC Nation Super-Hero shorts. For times, check local listings. But don't miss it!

How would you nominate the Reach's speech pattern? Why do they say "gratitude" and "appologies" instead of "thank you" and "sorry"? It reminds me of Spartacus. What kind of speech pattern is that? Regal?

Greg responds...

"Nominate"?

Anyway, it reminds me of Spartacus too. Probably because I more or less ripped Spartacus off, cuz I thought it was cool.

But in theory, they're just translating their speech patterns from their native language.

In the comic it showed Captain Atom lecturing the team, does he or nightwing still do that with the new recruits?

Greg responds...

Cap's been a bit busy recently, but the general policy is training from the top down. If it's stuff that the senior members of the Team can handle, they do. But specialists are still specialists, and Cap has espionage experience that I'm sure he'd still be willing to pass down.

Soo I loved #23! (And I'm totally buying that T-shirt btw) I just had one question about what Batman said to Robin in the issue: "We exist to stand up where and when others can't or won't-not to consider ourselves matchless" ...I don't quite understand what that's supposed to mean...and judging by the art Tim looked annoyed at that but I could be misreading the facial expression. Thanks!

Greg responds...

I think you're misreading the expression.

Anyway, Batman means that he and Robin do NOT exist out of some misguided belief that no one else is capable of doing the job.

Do you think you can at least give me a hint as to what Cassie and Bart want to do in the future. I am not really familiar with the comic-verse, but I recall Cassie having barely any life outside the Titans. Is it the same in earth-16?

Sorry if this is a spoiler by the way. I really appreciate the incredible amount of effort you and the entire crew place into this show. I can't wait for the fifth!

Greg responds...

Cassie does have a life outside the Team. She has a mom and goes to school and has other friends, etc. Any plans for the future, would be a SPOILER REQUEST.

Bart is just starting to have a life outside of the Team. He lives with the Garricks and has started school. But he's much more focused on PREVENTING the future he knows than on figuring out what he might do should a more positive future arrive.

1. Why is it that, even after five years of being on the team, Dick still hides his identity?
2. In Happy New Year, Dick told Tim "Just don't die, okay?" Was this a subtle reminder of Jason, that Dick was more hurt by Jason's death then we have seen? (If this is a spoiler I apologize)

Greg responds...

1. He hides it from newbies, perhaps out of habit and/or policy. Again, revealing his identity as good as reveals Batman's, so it's not strictly his choice to make.

2. ASKED AND ANSWERED. But, yes.

When Crispin Freeman voiced Speedy and Red Arrow in Satisfaction, does he get paid for one or two characters? Technically they are separate characters, but one's a clone of the other.

Greg responds...

They are two characters, but we get two characters for the price of one, per SAG rules. (We get a third character for a small additional fee. But if we want a fourth character, it's another full payment, and it all basically starts over, i.e. five costs the same as four, etc.)

1. SPOILER REQUEST. NO COMMENT.

2. SPOILER REQUEST. NO COMMENT.

3. She has robot shoes. The left shoe allows her to travel seven leagues in one step. The right shoe cracks a lot of jokes at Luthor's expense.

Hello Mr. Greg Weisman,

With the introduction of the Forever People and Desaad in "Disordered," the introduction of Gordon Godfrey in Young Justice: Invasion, and the use of Apokoliptian technology in several episodes of the series thus far, the hints of a coming presence of the New Gods seems to be making itself clear.

I know that, as I have read in the AskGreg Archives, you have stated multiple times that Young Justice is not affected by the New 52. However, I thought you should need to know about what the New Gods are doing in the New 52. Please read below.

The New Gods that have appeared thus far in the New 52 & what they have been doing:

Darkseid - In the New 52, Darkseid was re-introduced as the main antagonist in issues #1-6 of "Justice League." He led his forces to attack the mainstream DC universe in an effort to search for his daughter, who is apparently a new character in the comics. Thanks to the efforts of the Justice League, Darkseid was sent away via Boomtube, but not before he swore to return. It also seems that Darkseid has been acting behind-the scenes during the flashback events that happened in issue #1 of "Earth 2," given that he made no actual appearance in the issue. Darkseid has not yet made any future appearances since then... though it is easy to suspect that the search for his daughter still continues throughout the multiverse…

Desaad - His only appearance in the New 52 thus far was in issue #6 of "Justice League," in which he was involved in the brutal torture of Superman. I don't think he's been seen or heard of since then…

Steppenwolf - He also made an appearance in issue #6 of "Justice League," in which he was also involved in Superman's torture. With the failure of the Apokoliptian invasion of the mainstream DC universe, he makes his next appearance in issue #1 of "Earth 2." Aside from personally leading an Apokoliptian invasion on this parallel Earth, he had a notable role in personally killing Earth-2's version of Wonder Woman. When the invasion was stopped by Earth-2's version of the Trinity (at the cost of their lives), Steppenwolf was not seen or heard from again. I've heard that issue #8 of "Earth 2" is going to show off Steppenwolf again and that the issue was going to explain what he has been doing on Earth-2 for five years after the failed invasion.

Orion - Orion was re-introduced at the end of issue #12 of "Wonder Woman." Oddly enough, as he rises from the snow, picks up his helmet, and leaves somewhere via Boomtube, the dialogue in the last couple of pages in that issue implies that the fall of the Olympian Gods (at least, the ones exiting in the mainstream DC universe) gives rise to the New Gods. Honestly, I have no idea what it could mean. Anyway, Orion seems to play a role in some issues of "Wonder Woman." From what I think I understand, it seems that Orion has been given a mission by the Highfather to prevent the end of The Source itself… Pretty strange if you ask me…

Darkseid's daughter - Quite honestly, there's not much that is known about Darkseid's daughter. She has made no appearance thus far, and her name has not yet been given… Finding her is apparently Darkseid's top priority, as evidenced in issue #6 of "Justice League." The Apokoliptian invasion of Earth-2, as shown in issue #1 of "Earth 2" seems to suggest that Darkseid has launched an assault on ANY and ALL parallel Earths in the DC multiverse; all for the sake of finding his daughter. To further support this evidence, in issue #6 of "Justice League," Superman, upon being rescued from torture, stated that he saw images of a multiverse faced with death and torture at Darkseid's hands. This means that the mainstream DC universe and Earth-2 were not the only victims of assaults from the forces of Apokolips.

Thanks for taking the time to reading this posting. I'm not sure if this may be relevant to you or the Earth-16 universe, but I hope you didn't mind me sharing this with you.

Again, thank you,
CGYJ

Greg responds...

You know, I appreciate the thought, but I DON'T need to know any of this. Earth-16 is NOT in continuity with the New 52. That's NOT a value judgement. It's just a hard fact of when we began and completed production.

I wanted to ask about the Milestone characters. I read in an earlier answer that the issues between the company and DC had nothing to do with the sudden DC Nation hiatus, which I'm completely relieved to hear. But I also read somewhere that one the Milestone founders said that the entire issue with DC's use of Milestone characters are for publication rights and not animation rights. If this is true, would that be the reason for Icon and I'm assuming Rocket's omission from the YJ companion comic's issues 21-23? It seems to make sense to me seeing as they're not in the DC owned comic anymore, but are still supposed to be in the show.

Anyway thanks so much for creating such an amazing show and I'm soooo pumped for YJ's return in January!

Greg responds...

I've already said all I know on this subject. We were told - without explanation - to remove Rocket and Icon from issues 21-25. No one EVER said anything to us about removing Rocket, Icon or Virgil from the television show. It never came up. I DO NOT KNOW ANYTHING ELSE.

Hi Mr.Weisman

Two questions:

1. Did you give Slade a ponytail because you wanted to increase his sass level?

2. In another question someone asked where Artemis was in Image and you said "Does it matter? Anyway, hopefully I'll get to tell that story some day." and now I'm curious as to what that story is but I'm guessing that's a SPOILER request. So instead I'll ask was it a story that was meant to be told on the actual show or in the tie-in comics?

Greg responds...

1. <chuckle> Actually, I don't usually talk out of school here, but I was AGAINST the ponytail from the start. But I was over-ruled by Brandon and Phil. Later, when Phil was designing Deathstroke again for one of WB's DVDs, he told me I was right. Fat lot of good THAT did, huh? ;)

2. Comics.

Love this show I watch it more than I got my little brother to watch it too, I love the way everything is connected and Im always surprised by what happens next.
Here are my questions
1. Was Artemis a member for the league of Shadows?
2. Does Artemis have a criminal record? she mentioned it when she had to go undercover in jail to talk to Icicle Jr or was she just making that up?
3. Does Dick attend college? or have a job? or has his hero life taken up most of his time?
4. Did you make up all the atlantean and alien languages or were they already established by DC? if you made them up how throughly did you have to develop them?
5. Does the Justice league control the team or are they two separate groups that often work together?

Greg responds...

1. No.

2. SPOILER REQUEST. NO COMMENT.

3. He attends college part-time. And also takes courses on-line.

4. The Atlantean language is (loosely) based on Ancient Greek, translated for us by Aris Katsaris. (Any errors in utilizing Aris' translations are mine.)

4a. The Rannian language was invented by Alan Moore in the pages of his Swamp Thing comic. Nicole Dubuc studied what Alan had done and became our Rannian translator.

4b. Nicole and I made up the Martian language by extrapolating from the few existing Martian proper names that we knew from the comics.

4c. I made up the New Genesian language based on a fictional language I created in junior high and high school.

4d. I more or less made up Interlac.

5. Well, technically the Team operates under the auspices of the League, but in Season Two, as you can see, they function semi-autonomously and no longer must wait for assignments from Batman or the League. Though of course, if the League needed them for a mission, they'd hop to it.

1) Does the glamour charm alter voices automatically or must Artemis purposely rasp and deepen her voice as Tigress?

2) If Artemis told someone besides the three guys that she's Artemis, would the charm automatically not work on that person any more? We saw Miss Martian and Artemis talking telepathically and Tigress reverted back to Artemis in M'gann's eyes so I was wondering if that would happen should Artemis blurt out her secret.

3) I understand that Queen Bee's phremones work based on the attraction of the individual to a woman. So would that mean homosexual and asexual human males would not be influenced by her?

Greg responds...

1. In Universe, it works automatically.

2. No.

3. They would not, generally. No.

Was Icon part of Issues 21 and 23? I assume he wasn't only removed from the cover, but from the issues as well...

How can this happen without running it through you, the writer?

How will this affect the story?

Greg responds...

After issue 20 was published and after issues 21-24 were written and while I was in the middle of writing 25, I was informed by DC that both Icon and Rocket had to be removed from all of the last five issues. I was never told why. Icon was originally one of Kylstar's "weapons" and Rocket was originally with Zatanna, Nightwing, Sphere, Wonder Girl and Blue Beetle infiltrating the Collector's vessel.

A Flash Fan writes...

First of all awesome series. I've been meaning to post for some time and really wanted to thank you for your work and your communication/support with fans. It is much appreciated. I didn't like Season 2 originally but I've been growing used to it and it is awesome. Also "Failsafe" was perhaps the most interesting episode (for me) of Season 1. Ever since I saw it, my mind kept saying FORESHADOWING! and here it's coming with Season 2. Season 2's Invasion and the Team virtually taking over for the League just go to show how these guys and girls are really filling some big shoes.
1. Any chance of getting Khary Payton to say "BOOYAH!" in the series? Just for old times' sake...
2. I thought your spin-off Celebrity Hot Tub was a great idea, and am disappointed it didn't go through, but thanks a lot for sharing it! Did the people at DC Nation/MAD give a reason they didn't want to use it? I don't think it was your intention at all, but do you think it was because every celebrity had black in their name and they would consider it racist? Again I don't think it was and I am not saying you were.
3. Maybe when it airs on TV I'll see it, but in "Before the Dawn" how did Superboy get inside the Reach's underwater fortress disguised as a guard? Did it happen off camera and if so what happened?
4. Something similar with "Beneath" when Psimon says Batman was away or out of the picture when he and the others caught Batgirl; wasn't Bumblebee within earshot? It sure seemed like she saw Batgirl get caught and could have heard so did she and never informed or was it mistake in the episode's production?
5. This last part is a ramble...sort of...I don't expect an answer. Isn't it interesting that the Green Lanterns are away from earth, Superman, Martian Manhunter, the Hawks, and Icon are aliens, Wonder Woman is an Amazon, and Batman has no superpowers. In short no superhero with a Meta-Gene seems to have left Earth to stand trial at Rimbor (I think that's the planet) and the majority who left are aliens. The Green Lanterns possess the most powerful weapons on the planet and are away from there home planet. Perhaps the strongest woman on earth is no longer present. The smartest and richest superhero is MIA. No League Members who are Aliens are currently on Earth. Seems risky...Good luck YJ

PS I do have Flash questions which I'll save for later. Barry Allen is my favorite superhero, but I don't quite agree with your portrayal of him, but for that another post. I really wanted to get these asked before I forget. Thanks again Greg! Keep up the great work.

Greg responds...

1. SPOILER REQUEST. NO COMMENT.

2. I wasn't given much in the way of specifics. But in case it wasn't obvious, Khary and I intended it to be - on one level, at least - a parody of Blaxsploitationism.

3. He switched in at the docks.

4. Why is it a problem if Bumblebee heard?

A few questions about Artemis and Icicle Jr(Cameron) on Young Justice
1)a)Does Artemis still like Icicle Junior (as a friend)? since they used to be friends and b)does he still like her? OR c) do they despise each other now in season 2?
2)What kind of relationship do they have?
3) Have they ever spoken to each other as friends again since the time they saw each other when Artemis was "arrested" ?
4)a)Does Cameron know that Artemis died? b)How does he feel about it?
5) Did Cameron ever find out about Artemis being a hero?

Greg responds...

1a. Still? You're assuming she ever liked him. I won't confirm or deny that assumption.

1b. I'm sure he's still attracted to her.

1c. Despise is such a strong word.

2. You're assuming they have ANY relationship. I won't confirm or deny that assumption.

3. Ever? I guess so.

4a. Probably.

4b. Probably thinks it's a waste.

5. Ultimately, yes.

Hi there, Sir!
I think I may be one of your biggest Russian fans! I'm visiting Australia at the moment, but I always try and watch and get new episodes off iTunes when they come out.

I know you've heard this a billion times before; but condolences to you, I am so sorry for what CN did to you and your fantabulous show! I am so happy that it will be coming back soon!

I have a few questions, IF you don't mind me asking.
1.Why can you not comment on the situation that CN has put you in? Is this legal issues, or just plainly because you do not know why they did what they did? I'm hoping by the time you reach this question, the whole waiting game will be done, and the episodes will be back on TV.

2.How do you feel about music montages in shows? Would you even consider doing something like this? And if you would- would you use already known music- tunes that had been in the charts, or even just well known tunes- or do you prefer using music that is plainly made for your show?

3.Would you be allowed to use the type of music in my previous question- or would there be legal issues surrounding this? How would one be able to put that certain music onto the show? Licensing or...?

4.Concerning Superboy and the Real!Roy Harper (I have noticed people write it like this.)- why did Superboy need so much less DNA then Clone!Roy- did they not took a whole arm, right? Why could they not have just took DNA in the way they took genetic material from Superman- or was this because of the fact that Superboy also had Lexs' DNA in him?

5.About Superboy and DNA- why does he not look like both Superman and Lex. I know he is a clone of Superman, but if he had Lexs' DNA too, wouldn't this give him some shared physical attributes with Lex? Or am I just overestimating how much of Lexs' DNA was used?

Thank you very very much, Sir, for your time and your great efforts with the show.

Greg responds...

1. I DID comment: http://www.s8.org/gargoyles/askgreg/search.php?rid=982 I may feel free to say more after episode #220 has aired.

2a. Uh... I'm not constitutionally opposed to them. Though I often think they've been misused and abused to the point of being reduced to cliche.

2b. Sure. Though often that's a luxury of time that we can't afford. Our episodes tend toward the jam-packed. And even with that, people complain weekly about what we LEAVE OUT of every episode.

2c. There's no way we could EVER afford to use a pre-existing tune in our series. Those are very expensive, and it's not in our budget.

3. Well, of course, there would be legal issues if we tried to use existing music without paying for it! (Which, of course, we would never do.) But otherwise, it's a budgetary issue.

4. Both Roy Harpers are real. Roy was cloned YEARS before Superman was. Project Cadmus had made advances since then.

5. Human DNA was only used to bridge gaps in the Kryptonian sequence.

Greetings, Mr. Weisman. By the time you answer this, the world has been proven not to end. Huzzah!

This is my third installment of questions. I don't expect to see Parasite in the comics (whatever time it has left) or the rest of Season 2, so I hope all questions about him won't run afoul of the spoiler rules.

1. Parasite was shown to be able to simultaneously access multiple powers at once (he used heat vision with telekinesis during his final battle). Why wasn't he able to access Dawn Danger's telepathy (and discover Robin's Hail Mary plan) or simulate flight using her telekinesis? Parasite commented that she tasted like Martian Manhunter, implying that he's "borrowed" his powers before, so presumably he would know about the full set of Martian powers.

2. Parasite's power absorption comes with the instant ability to harness those powers, implying there's some knowledge transfer going on. For example, Dan Danger's acrobatic abilities didn't come from any metahuman powers, but from years of physical training. In this incarnation, does he gain access to any of his victims' memories?

This quest is Tangentially related to Parasite, although it deals more with Shields (both topics I hope are copacetic)

3. According to Luthor, Superboy's shields act as a DNA dampener, allowing Connor to fully tap into his Kryptonian powers. Those powers are, in Superman's case, powered by yellow sun radiation. Once Parasite drains this store of power, it's like draining a battery - even Superman must recharge from the sun. This brings to mind an interesting conundrum - the shields were able to instantly repower Superboy, implying that it doesn't function as a human DNA dampener (the denouement happened at night), but more like a steroid patch. The question is, are the shields exactly as Luthor said they were?

This one veers into speculation territory, although I hope I've successfully framed it as a "safe" question:

4. After Miss Martian did something to Aqualad, why didn't Tigress just surrender outright to her and Beast Boy? That would have provided both of them, and especially Aqualad, with a convenient "out" of their deep cover mission. Aqualad's mission was, after all, to join the Light, know the Partner, and rescue the abductees - all of which he accomplished.

This one is an aside question, answered affirmatively by b.t. in the DC Animation forums. I'm hoping to see your take on this.

5. In his crusade as Batman, Bruce Wayne has at times appropriated company resources and technology without clearing it up with his company's Board of Directors. He doesn't flaunt this behavior the same way he did in the DCAU (costs of Watchtower construction was a line item hidden in the WayneCorp Space R&D Budget), but certainly some of his tech (the Batplane, the Batcomputer, the Batcave) is based on purloined technology. So my question is - do you consider Bruce Wayne as a white collar crook for misappropriating company assets?

Greg responds...

1a. You're assuming telepathy is (a) easy and (b) not thwartable. I think we've demonstrated over and over in this series that neither is true.

1b. He probably could have. But using Superboy's flight power is/was easier.

2. No.

3. There's a TON of ambient solar radiation around our world, even at night - else we'd all freeze to death every night. But I think it's safe to say that Luthor may not have been 100% forthcoming.

4. You presume to know the extent of Aqualad's mission? Wait four more weeks and then if you want, ask again.

5. You're assuming he doesn't own Wayne Enterprises outright?

In issue #22 of the YJ comic, Nightwing and Batgirl use a pretty awesome device to communicate through hologram. Is this tech used solely by the Batfamily? Or do several members of the team and league have it?

Greg responds...

Nightwing is still using a version of the mobile holocomputer he's been using since he was Robin. The current Robin and Batgirl both use something similar. This is Batcave tech that I'm sure Batman would share with other Leaguers if they asked. So far no one has.

In five years there was no heroin good enough to get into the Justice League?
I know that there are five women in the league, but also twenty-five men, which makes a number unfavorable for women...
Unlike the team that has a nice number on the issue of men and women, for example, at the end of the first season, the team had eight active members four men and four women, and at the beginning of the season the team had ten active members, four women and six men, a number that remains favorable for women.
It seems with the entry of Zatanna and Rocket have entered the league, there was no heroin in five years time to get into the league!
I would like the heroines in Young Justice had another look at them now, grateful!

Greg responds...

We are, at least to some extent, limited by the source material that we are adapting. We try to create as much balance as possible - especially with the Team, as opposed to the League.

Hello Mr. Greg Weisman,

I have a quick question about Earth-16's Beast Boy. From what I've read, I've understood that Beast Boy needs to see and be in some form of contact with an animal before he can transform into it at any time he wants. Unfortunately, I've also understood that he cannot seem to use this ability to transform into any dinosaurs, and I'm assuming that he can't use it to transform other extinct prehistoric creatures as well. Is there an in-universe explanation as to why such limitations were placed upon the abilities of Earth-16's Beast Boy? Could the limitations in animal transformations have anything to do with animal DNA (perhaps a complete DNA sequence is required for Beast Boy's transformation?) or is it something else entirely?

Thanks for taking the time to reading this posting,
CGYJ

Greg responds...

He needs to grok the animal, which he can't do from a distance - especially from a distance of millenia.

Thought I'd share my thoughts on issue #23!

Team Year Zero:
Artemis and Barbara seem like they're getting along swimmingly. Hopefully, there's a great friendship about to form from that! Also, Alfred with the pizzas got a good chuckle from me. And it was really nice seeing Bruce wanting to stick around for Dick's birthday; just about warmed my heart.

The scene in Dhabar was also great. That one panel where M'gann explains to Clark how she caught onto him was subtly tragic: we learn that Conner doesn't keep mirrors or looks at his own face often, M'gann has memorized and learned every single one of his details and she hates lying to him even though she is.
1. Was thatDeadshot targetting Rumaan?

Team Year Five:
What a creepy place Batman and Robin are in. I've seen people speculate about it being Harvey Dent's home. I wouldn't really know, but I'm sure (or at least, I'm hoping) we'll know either by the end of this arc or find out about it in the show.

These last five years seem like they have been very unkind to Match. And I'm guessing these next few minutes/hours won't be kind to Barbara either.

I love the fighting dynamics between our abducted heroes. They have great synergy together, which of course means we're going to be gettinbg more awesomeness from them in the next issue. I see in the queue that someone has already asked why Icon was removed from the cover for this and a previous issue of YJ:I. To be honest, he was the one I was looking forward to the most, but I digress. I just hope nothing from the story was lost with his removal.

The bioship with La'gaan and M'gann was exactly what I had been waiting for! Even though I was pretty devastated with Superboy and Miss Martian's break up at first, I still felt that pairing her up with someone like La'gaan was an interesting idea and I was really curious about what would happene next with them.
However, aside from the cute crab cakes moment and M'gann trying to save him (I believe both are scenes from "Depths"), there wasn't much else about them so far that called for my attention. Add to that how my impression of La'gaan at first went a little bit south during the second half of "Happy New Year" and the fact that M'gann is still very hung up on Conner, I wasn't very sure how to feel about it anymore.
But this scene was just what I had been needing. It was sweet, it was touching and it explained the connection between them. I also feel really bad for La'gaan. I suspected he'd be a social outcast. It sucks and it's unfair, do I know. And as I suspected, M'gann understands perfectly. This is one of the reason why I had been so excited over the prospect of them being together. Hope we see more of this in the show.

Beast Boy's concern for Noor... Considering Bibbo and Noor were amongst the people Robin, Lagoon Boy and Blue Beetle rescued in the Invasion premiere that takes place a month later, I suspect he was right to worry.

And last but not least, the Collector of Worlds has given Martian Manhunter, The Flash and The Atom a real beating and now they're falling off to their doom. So not crash.

All in all, a superb and thrilling chapter! Can't wait for more!

Greg responds...

1. Yes.

2. Icon was originally one of the abducted along with the two Captains, the two Supers and Wonder Woman. I was forced to rewrite him out of issues 21-25, and I do think it loses something in terms of chemistry and interaction. Same with Rocket, who was with Zatanna throughout. But NOTHING was lost from a plot standpoint. The story didn't change.

Oh, and again, just to be VERY clear: this stuff only effects the comic, not the television series. All the episodes are already animated and approved. CN's decision on when and where to air the series has nothing to do with DC's decision about the comic.

I have one other question and it's a fun one.

Do you see any of the team or Justice League as being "serious" readers? If so, which writers do they like?
By "serious" I mean someone who will crack the classics like Melville, Milton, or Homer, or someone who likes serious fiction like... Toni Morrison or Gabriel Marquez.

P.S.

If people can ask about Catherine Cobert's age then I can certainly ask about this!

Greg responds...

Yes, you can. But the difference is that the age questions are objective. I've either done the math or I haven't. What you're asking for is incredibly subjective. I take the question seriously enough that I don't want to just toss out an answer without putting real thought into it. And so it would potentially take hours to answer it for the dozens of characters we have on the series. And I'm just not prepared to do that right now.

But the short answer is yes.

Hi Greg,

I'd like to offer an observation. Every one of the original team has played some role in the traumatic events of Darkest and Before the Dawn - even Wally and Connor who permitted these events to occur by staying silent. I don't see what Wally could have done, but Connor could have spoken up about M'Gann's activities, but he didn't.

I have not seen many viewers respond to Beast Boy, Impulse, and Blue Beetle being drugged, assaulted, kidnapped, and tortured. If I was Gar, Bart, or Jaime, I'd be hurt, humiliated, and beyond furious with Nightwing and the senior class. It's one thing to expect Justice Leaguers to roll with the punches, but Beast Boy is barely a teenager.

I understand that because of the genre you feel the need to keep things moving. Unfortunately, that means certain things get glossed over. (For example, I would have loved to have watched Wally and Artemis's first date.) Personally, I'm willing to give Artemis and Kaldur a pass because they have suffered so much. But, I hope that when the smoke clears, the team will hold Nightwing accountable for his actions

Greg responds...

You're assuming that when the smoke clears, that anyone's still alive to hold Nightwing accountable. Or that Nightwing's still alive to be held.

Hi Greg, I have a question that's been plaguing me and I would love if you could shed some light:
You've previously said that Beast Boy needs to touch or see an animal in order to become it [ergo why he can't become a dinosaur, etc]. So my question is, how does he turn into that monkey-human hybrid? From what I can tell it's not a real animal, and seeing that he can turn into a human, and therefore it's not this form he has no control over, how does he transform into that hybrid?
Thanks!

Hey, Greg. Thanks for answering all our insane questions.

Thinking specifically about Young Justice, were there any characters that you meant to be... not very likeable? I mean, obviously the villains are the ones we love to hate, but of the Team or JLA? Like, hypothetically, did you (or anyone else) ever say, 'Ya know what? Lets make [insert character's name here] a complete jerk.'

I'm not looking for validation for people to hate on any one character. I'm just womdering if it was ever part of the thought process in the show.

Thanks a lot!

Greg responds...

Not unlikeable, no, but there were characters that we wanted NOT to mesh with the others quite so well. We wanted things like anger-management issues, jealousy issues, insecurity issues, etc. There are, I believe, non-positive qualities to nearly every major character on the show. Hopefully, the audience finds the characters real, and perhaps likes them more for their faults...

1) Did Artemis' poor relationship with her father make her leery of men at all? If so, did this cause her to have a difficult time trusting Wally early in their relationship and/or cause any strain in their relationship early on?
2) You stated that they had ups and downs during their relationship over the 5 year gap. Could you specify a bit? Were there large confrontations or temporary breakups? Or were they just typically small arguments, petty jealousy and/or similar situations?
3) Do Wally's parents know of Artemis' background and are they at all bothered by the fact that she comes from a criminal family?

Thank you so much for taking the time to answer these!

Young Justice: Invasion is the only comic series I've bought regularly (came close with the Jaime/Blue Beetle one couple of years ago). Like the TV series it's got a great mix of characters and tells a bunch of engaging stories at an all ages level. I love being able to read a series and share it with my younger brother (So many of the 'normal' series are intensely violent and feature sexual assault so often...).

So, thank you and your staff for making this series so great! It's always sold out at our local store. I'm sorry to hear that it's ending in two months.

What are your thoughts on how to keep comics relevant and get them to people, particularly younger crowds? Are downloads making a difference? Would releasing more series as longer graphic novels twice a year rather than shorter monthlies help? What about the content? Thanks for your time!

Just dropping by to say that the latest comic issue was aweseome. It was nice to see Tim again.

Hey Greg!

I started watching Young Justice this summer and can't get enough of it! I've never had cable tv, so I don't watch many shows, but this is the first show that I've been able to say I keep up with regularly. I particularly love the spinoff series, Black Manta's Celebrity Hot tub, and think that CN really should give it another chance. I hope that maybe someday fans will be able to rejoice upon seeing the likes of Lex Luthor, The Joker, or Queen Bee enter that fabled hot tub.

A few questions:

1. Is Beast Boy's hair black or green? The reason I ask is because in the show, it's black, but in the comics and promotional material, it's a slightly darker shade of green than his skin.

2. If Mrs. Martian didn't get woken up by Martian Manhunter in Failsafe, and died by the same beams the other members "died" from, would she herself slip into a coma?

3. I hope I'm not asking something with an obvious answer, but what was Artemis doing during Image? I was rewatching it the other day and noticed she didn't go with the team to Qurac.

4. It's totally fine if this isn't answered, I didn't exactly expect it to, but what's Gar's birthday? Dc has never given him a birth date in the comics and I was just curious. Hope it isn't a spoiler request.

Greg responds...

1. I think it's dark green in all of the above.

2. We'll never know.

3. Does it matter? Anyway, hopefully I'll get to tell that story some day.

Same with Impulse, he tried/continues to try to change his future, but somehow Nate still remembers what it was like before?
