Greg I can't imagine no new Young Justice. I was really looking forward to another season because I know it would be crazy addictingly (a new word) good.
I was really looking forward to Starfire, since you guys said she's something you're thinking about for a season 3.
I just wanna tell you we are not giving up, we will always support Young Justice and make Cartoon Network air these episodes one way or another.
Hell, why don't you just go to another program?
Thanks for the amazing shows, Greg. You've been obviously told this before but you've got some talent. Cartoon Network obviously doesn't see it. It's their loss.

Greg responds...

Um, I get along pretty well with the folks at CN. I really think the decision had less to do with me than with overall trends and the current version of conventional wisdom and economics than anyone at all thinking that YJ was a bad show.

Hey Greg, in War, I was curious as to why Blue reacted the way he did in the end RIGHT AFTER Cassie kissed Roy.
Did the situation trigger some more biochemical things going on that made him attack right then and there? I mean it could've been another time with the whole team. Who knows, I'm probably over thinking it.
& is there a reason why Blue knocked out everyone except Wonder Girl?

Greg responds...

You're WAY over-thinking it. Blue Beetle was not in control of his own body. The scarab was under complete Reach control. They wanted the Crystal Key, and that meant they had to make their move at that moment to keep it. Plus it was the perfect opportunity to take out the entire Team. It had NOTHING at all to do with Cassie giving Roy a peck on the cheek.

I saw this quote and immediately thought of Superboy and Miss Martian.

"If she's amazing, she won't be easy. If she's easy, she won't be amazing. If she's worth it, you won't give up. If you give up, you're not worthy. ...Truth is, everybody is going to hurt you; you just gotta find the ones worth suffering for."

Do you agree?

Greg responds...

I don't actually. So let's break it down.

*My wife is amazing, and getting along with her was easy from the first moment we spoke together.

*I suppose it depends what one means by "easy", but by any definition easy does not mean that it won't be amazing.

*Is she's worth it, it's good not to give up - unless she's made it clear that she's not interested. Then you should give up and move on. Or else you're a stalker.

*If you give up, you might indeed be unworthy. But this SO depends on the circumstances. You might be the better man for giving up.

*Truth is, NOT everybody is going to hurt you - not in a significant way. You'd definitely be better off with folks who don't hurt you.

*No relationship is perfect, but if you're actually 'suffering', then I'd have my doubts that person is worth it.

Basically, I don't believe in the kinds of absolute statements this quotation is making. (I'd be nearly as suspicious if it said the exact opposite in the same absolutist manner. Nearly.) Worse, I think the statement suggests a romantic view of love through conflict which is antithetical to my actual personal experience.

Instead, here's my advice: The best lover/spouse/etc. you can find is one who is also your best friend. And friends don't make friends suffer. Or drive drunk. Etc.

1. How was Nathaniel Tryon (Neutron) captured by the Reach? 2. Was Nathaniel a Runaway like Tye and Eduardo?
3. What is Nathaniel's general backstory up to his kidnapping?

Greg responds...

1. He was a runaway.

2. Yes.

3. SPOILER REQUEST. NO COMMENT.

I would imagine Wally and Jade (Cheshire) have had a little contact because she is Artemis' sister. How do they get along?

Greg responds...

Cautiously on his part. With amusement on hers.

Dear Greg,
Saw Complications, & dang! First off, I liked Slade getting more development, ever the schemer. And Megan was amazing this episode, single-handedly masterminding her escape & possibly gaining two new allies in the op. And man I'm happy to see Kal back to normal. But what I'm intrigued by was the end, when Dick used his detective skills to realize Scarab & B'arrzz. Man do I pity them when he gets a plan together.
Pass on my praise & I eagerly await the next episode!

Greg responds...

Thanks! Hope you liked it!

RAIN OF THE GHOSTS, BOOK TWO COUNTDOWN, Chapter Eighteen

RAIN OF THE GHOSTS, BOOK TWO COUNTDOWN, Chapter Eighteen:

Here's another of my shameless attempts to maintain buzz about my new novel, RAIN OF THE GHOSTS, due out in stores and on-line on December 3rd, 2013 (but available for pre-order NOW on Amazon, etc.):

http://www.amazon.com/Rain-Ghosts-Greg-Weisman/dp/1250029791

Since there's not much to report about the first book now, I'm counting down my progress writing the SECOND book in the Rain franchise, which should come out sometime in 2014.

I'm on a bit of a roll. It's flowing pretty easy for now - but I really don't want to jinx it. I just finished writing Chapter Eighteen. It has some complicated visuals in it, so I hope I brought the imagery to life.

Tomorrow, I'll start on Chapter Nineteen.

Hi Greg,
I was wondering in the final episode of SSM (final curtain) was that really Norman Osborn at the airport? I am so sad that the series never got it's third season it was such a good show, but because it was cancelled that cliffhanger will never be resolved.

Greg responds...

Yes. (Were you REALLY in doubt?)

Some questions about SpecSpidey...
Did you have any plan to reveal the origins of A)Hammerhead's... well, hammer-head
B)Tombstone's durable skin
c)the Venom symbiote?

Greg responds...

A. Nothing specific, but I know exactly how it happened, and it was in fact hinted at in "Accomplices".

B. Not confirming or denying that he has that.

C. It came from outer space.

Hi. I realize that the companion comic book has been cancelled. Is there a possibility of some sort of a re-launch under a different title? It would give you a chance to tie up loose threads, and there might be a larger audience for it now that the show has been cancelled.

Greg responds...

That was my thinking when Chris Jones and I pitched doing a book entitled "EARTH-16", but DC said it didn't fit their plans. Oh, well.
