LONG BEACH COMIC CON

Hey gang,

Heading off to yet another convention. This time it's...

LONG BEACH COMIC CON
Long Beach Convention Center
300 East Ocean Blvd.
Long Beach, CA 90802

I'm there this Saturday and Sunday. Here's my schedule:

SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 17, 2016
09:30am - 03:00pm - I'll be at my table, which is "ANIMATION ISLAND 13". (Well, the con opens at 9:30am, but I'll be driving down that morning to Long Beach from Los Angeles, so I'll get there as close to 9:30am as I can manage it.) I'll be signing and selling copies of my novels RAIN OF THE GHOSTS and SPIRITS OF ASH AND FOAM for $10 each. If you buy both, you get a free RAIN OF THE GHOSTS art print, illustrated by Christopher Jones. I'll also be selling CD sets of the RAIN OF THE GHOSTS AudioPlay for $30 This is an unabridged four hour production with 20 actors (including Brent Spiner, Marina Sirtis, Ed Asner, Vanessa Marshall, Jim Cummings, Steve Blum, Thom Adcox and more), a full original musical score (by the composers of YOUNG JUSTICE and THE SPECTACULAR SPIDER-MAN) and sound effects. It's like a four hour movie in your head! Buy the CD set and you also receive a free print. If you ONLY want the print, it's $20. Plus I'll also be selling original Christopher Jones art prints of YOUNG JUSTICE and GARGOYLES for $20 each. Finally, I'll be selling copies of my animation scripts (from series including GARGOYLES, THE SPECTACULAR SPIDER-MAN, YOUNG JUSTICE, STAR WARS REBELS and many others) for $20 each. All transactions are cash only. Signatures - if you bring something of your own for me to sign - are FREE!

03:00pm - 04:00pm - The Star Wars Perspectives
Join Greg Weisman (Star Wars Rebels), Craig Miller (Director of Fan Relations for Lucasfilm from 1977-1980), Brian Miller (Star Wars artist), and Mike Mayhew (Star Wars comic book artist) as they discuss the different aspects of Star Wars that they have been involved in. Unique perspectives and experiences are brought to the table in this can't-miss panel! Moderated by Blair Marnell, Q&A to follow.

04:00pm - 07:00pm - I'll be back, signing & selling, at my ANIMATION ISLAND 13 table.

SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 18, 2016

How long did it take to write and make an episode for Young Justice?

By the way, you are THE BEST writer on TV ever!!!

Greg responds...

Thank you.

Um... well, it takes a minimum of nine or ten months to go from an episodic springboard to a final complete episode in the can, ready to air. Often more like a year.

Hey Greg-- just making you aware of this so you can throw it out to the fandom. Hot Topic currently has a Gargoyles shirt for sale that is officially licensed by Disney. I purchased one myself as anything Disney sees fit to market the property with at this point should be taken advantage of. I came across it by chance doing some holiday shopping and am not sure if it is available in stores or not:

Thanks,

Greg responds...

Yep. I got that too. I think I've passed this on already, but just in case, fans, here it is again!

At the VERY end? No. But Mount Justice is.

So, okay, here's one for you.

Most of the Light's plans make sense. They follow a consistent pattern: one or two surface ruses to draw attention, and one lower-level plan to advance Vandal Savage's philosophy that humans need to evolve and take their place on the cosmic stage. Even the entire season 1 plot seemed engineered to put Earth in the galactic crosshairs, so as to give humanity the chance to grow from overcoming the Reach. And THAT seemed engineered to make Earth interesting to Darkseid.

The one thing that I DON'T get, however, was one tiny little plan.

How on earth did the Light, humanity, or indeed ANYONE but Count Vertigo benefit from killing Queen Perdita?

If Savage's plans had been successful, Vertigo would become King. ... What good does that do Savage? Or the Light? How is that worth using four ice villains to freeze the planet?

So, basically, if it's not a spoiler to answer... Why would Vandal Savage get involved in that one?

Greg responds...

This seems obvious to me. If Vertigo is king of and works for the light, then Vlatava, like Bialya, becomes a Light proxy. Why wouldn't Savage and the rest want complete control of another entire country?

Let's let them have their privacy, shall we?

Rewatched the beginnings of Young Justice season one and I had a question about Denial.

Given how much time travel factored into the second season's overarching story, was there ever any point where Abra Kadabra was significant in some fashion? Considering how important the future became, it is a little odd that Abra Kadabra has futuristic technology so casually.

Greg responds...

No one in Season One knew that Abra actually CAME from the future. Except Abra, of course.

I have a question about the proposed Disney Villains series that you developed but never quite managed to sell.

Who would have been the protagonists of this series? Who, or what would actually have prevented the Disney Villains from accomplishing their goals?

Greg responds...

I appreciate the desire to know, but I'm loathe to offer spoilers even on projects that never went. In the first place, I haven't given up hope of doing the series some day in some form. And in the second place, I have learned painfully that ideas stated minus their execution are ripe for tremendous second guessing. Particularly on that internet thing.

Hello, Greg!It's me again. How are you? Well, I hope.

I was re-watching one of my favorite Gargoyles episodes, "Long Way to Morning" and I had a thought, particularly about Demona: How exactly did Demona know where Elisa's home was? I don't recall her knowing before this episode and i was curious. Was she somehow keeping tabs on her or spying?

Thank you for your time and answering my question. (:

Greg responds...

Maybe she checked the phone book.

I'm told it magically gives out addresses.
