Before the breakup did Queen Perdita ever saw a picture of Garfield Logan before his hair and skin turned green?

Greg responds...

I'm sure she did at some point.

1. How close are Superboy and Black Canary? Do they share a somewhat familial bond and are they still close by season 4?
2. Has Garth moved on from losing Tula or is he still struggling to move on like Artemis did?
3. When exactly did Cyborg join the Justice League and how long was he with the Outsiders before joining the League?
4. When did Conner and Megan graduate and move in together? Year and day please.

Greg responds...

1. They're close. But, familial... no. I wouldn't think so. She's a friend and mentor.

2. I'm not sure what you mean by "moved on". I'm not sure I love that phrase. I'm sure he has good days and bad days.

3. Cyborg joined the Justice League in December of Team Year Nine. He joined the Outsiders in January of that same year.

4. They graduated high school in June, Team Year Two. I don't have a specific date. They graduated college in Team Year Six, but because of the Invasion, they may have graduated late. I don't have a specific date. Sometime after graduating, they moved in to the apartment above Lucas Carr's garage. Again, I don't have a specific date, but they were already living there together by July 29, Team Year Eight.

Consedering klarion’s mind is very chaotic how did he remember the deal he made with savage to return back to atlantis? Did teekl remind him about it?

Greg responds...

Sure. Although Chaos doesn't mean he couldn't chaotically remember he had something to do somewhere. And it might as well be Atlantis.

How did Garfield get money to support himself after Garfield permanently stop acting on star trek 3016 in young justice universe?

Greg responds...

Garfield has inherited money, and he saved quite a bit from his series. Plus, contracts are odd. You're assuming he stopped getting paid after he left. But that's not necessarily true. He was on medical leave.

Was the reason you decided to have Shiva and not David Cain be the abusive parent who relentlessly trained Cassandra into being the perfect assassin due to her backstory in the comics being too similar to Artemis and Sportsmaster?

Greg responds...

Not consciously. Mostly, I think we just found Lady Shiva to be a more compelling character than David Cain.

Hi Greg, want to start by saying I love the world building of young justice and the amount of passion you and the team have towards the shows creation, huge respect! The fact that you even take the time to interact with and respond to fans who feel entitled to have all sorts of opinions is a huge thing in itself and the way you respond and handle situations is admirable! I have a couple questions that im not sure can be answered or would warrant a no spoiler haha. Ive looked through the archive to make sure it hasn't been answered before and I don't believe it has so here it goes:

1. Is the Blue Beetle "Big Bad" of Barts time actually Jaime? Once the Reach had Jaime in captivity they might've killed him off for a new host or maybe actually found a way to put him on mode, so the identity of the human host of the tyrant of Barts time is unclear.

2. Flash´s secret identity seems to be important to him, he even has a different eye colour when in his uniform (blue) as opposed to his actual green. With Jay being a public hero with his name known, surely people must recognise him out of costume? In associating him with Bart as his guardian, it wouldn't be impossible for people to make a connection between Allens and Jay, doesn't this put their secret IDs at risk?

Thank you in advance regardless of whether the questions are answered or not. I love the show a lot and have been enjoying the first half of season 4 so far (especially all of Klarions scenes, the were incredibly chaotic hahaha). Very excited for the rest of the season.

Greg responds...

1. IT IS UNCLEAR!! You're the first person that I know of who has noticed that fact. It was left intentionally ambiguous. Jaime assumes, because Bart assumed, that it was him. But I think that's doubtful. Of course, now, we'll never know.

2. Bart's in costume, and the world doesn't know that he's Barry's grandson - especially since Barry's kids are so young. The fact that people know that Jay and Barry are friends doesn't automatically mean that Barry is the Flash. Presumably, Jay has more than one friend.

I just want to say that I love that Young Justice Phantoms is focusing more on Superboy for a change and I have a few questions about it.

1. What made you decide on this storyline for season 4
2. Did always want to make a season focusing more on Superboy's character.
3. Why Make Conner and M'gann suffer!?! Trapping him in the Phantom and making M'gann believe she lost the love of her life?!

Greg responds...

1. It's what came next?

2. I don't feel like he's ever been out of focus. And I don't feel he's the sole focus of season four, either.

3. There's very little drama without pain.

Why did the show have to become so dark when it was revived just because the fandom is older? 99.9% of DC media is dark, the optimism in YJ was refreshing. And making material darker doesn't automatically make it more mature.

Greg responds...

I agree that dark doesn't equate with mature. But you're implying that YJ ONLY got dark and didn't get more mature, and I don't agree with that at all. And that's on top of the fact, that I believe YJ remains thoroughly optimistic in its viewpoint. Oh, and probably not as dark as you think.

I don't assume I can convince you of this, but I guarantee that you're not going to convince me.

if you only intended for there to be a handful of characters that are leads, why didn't you keep the cast small like season 1 instead of adding a bunch of characters you have no intention of focusing on? that way, people could have focused on the mains without being distracted by the characters who are background. can you really blame people for being disappointed when their favorite character shows up, only for the show to do nothing with them and move onto someone else?

Greg responds...

I don't blame people.

Why are you blaming me for making the show I want to make? (Or more accurately, the show that Brandon and I want to make, and which many, many, many fans seem to enjoy?)

I've already answered over and over again why we have always continued to expand our cast. Why some characters are leads in a given season. Why some are supporting. Why some are cameos. Why our spotlight moves around as it does. Feel free to go through the ASK GREG archives and get the lowdown. I'm definitely not in the mood to repeat myself.

But I will make these points:

Blue Beetle was a lead in Season Two. In Season Three he was supporting. In Season Three he only cameod. But should we have NEVER introduced him, just because we didn't make him a lead EVERY season?

Zatanna was supporting in seasons one, two and three. She became a lead for a chunk of Season Four. Should we never have introduced her either?

And if, for example, we made Wonder Girl a lead in Season Five (assuming we get a season five and assuming that's in our gameplan), should we have waited UNTIL Season Five to introduce her? Or might not her Season Five characterization BENEFIT from her having been introduced earlier and us having watched her grow at least a little from a Wonder Woman fangirl in Season Two, to the leader of the Outsiders in Season Four, leading up to whatever might be depicted in Five? And if we then dropped her back down to Supporting in Season Six, would that mean we should never have made her a lead in Season Five?

Different fans might disagree about their specific favorites, but I'd bet anything that NO FAN wanted us to have six heroes and NEVER introduce any more ever. It's a big DC Universe out there. And nearly every fan is frickin' greedy for their favorites to appear.
