Some Captain Marvel questions:

1) In Alpha Male, Captain Marvel flies all the way from India to Fawcett City in a few hours. Is it safe to assume Cap can fly at least at the speed of sound and possibly beyond?

2) Does Captain Marvel heal faster than a normal human?

3) Would the courage of Achilles protect Cap from fear based attacks from villains such as Phobia (of the Brotherhood of Evil)?

Greg responds...

1. Back in Season One? Maybe.

2. Good question. Maybe. It just hasn't come up.

3. Sounds like it would, doesn't it?

Do Superboy and Superman heal faster than a normal human? Is that part of their invulnerability?

Greg responds...

1. Yes.

2. Not exactly. It's part of their solar absorption.

I was looking at some of your responses from 2001 and I noticed a response that indicated that the New Olympian Clan population was around a hundred Gargoyles. This seemed a rather low number for a clan that lives in relative isolation and safety. Lower even then the canonical 198 of the London Clan; so naturally I’m quite curious about it.

1) Why is the New Olympian Clan population so low?
2) Which of the still surviving Gargoyle Clans has the highest population?

Greg responds...

1. They may be practicing population control, as London does.

2. Don't want to lock myself in on that.

How do you plan out a story Spider-Man?

Greg responds...

I'm not Spider-Man.

But basically, there's no difference in planning a Spidey story than planning a story for any show. It involves a lot of index cards, moving beats around until it gels.

1a. Will Superman and Superboy actually die if they are deprived of oxygen for long enough? Or just be left unconscious?

1b. How long does it take without oxygen for them to die/be left unconscious?

2a. You've said that M'gann and J'onn need to breathe oxygen, but they come from Mars where there is little oxygen in the atmosphere. Is this because they have taken mostly human forms on Earth, even internally?

2b. How do M'gann and B'arzz breathe when they are in their true Martian forms?

2c. Do Martians breathe on Mars, and if so, what do they breathe?

Greg responds...

1a. They must breathe to live.

1b. I don't know.

2a. No. There is oxygen underground on Mars. Less than on Earth. But enough to breathe.

2b. Like Martians.

2c. Yes.

2d. Oxygen.

I'm so happy that Young Justice is coming back! Here a few age-related questions:

1. How old was Jonathan Lord while filming Hello, Megan?

2. Same for Sandra Stanyon?

3. By the time of their first appearance in the show, how many years (if they've been around for longer than a year, anyway) have the Cult of the Kobra existed?

4. Same for Intergang?

5. How old is Abra Kadabra?

Greg responds...

1. Jonathan Lord was 59 but playing much younger.

2. Sandra Stanyon was 57 but playing much younger.

3. Haven't locked that down.

4. Ditto.

5. Abra was 40 in Team Year Zero.

Hello again Mr. Weisman!

I know you've made Radio Plays of Cross overs with Gargoyles, Spider-Man, and Young Justice! Which leads me to this Question if you don't mind!

Is There by chance any Other Particular Disney Animated Series, Like The ones from Disney Channel or any other the other Disney Afternoon shows, That you would like to Cross Over with 'Gargoyles'?

Greg responds...

W.I.T.C.H., probably.

What was last year did Marie Logan have a job as a actor?

Greg responds...

Not sure. HELLO, MEGAN! was her one big thing, and that ended in 1980. But I'd guess she did a few little things after that. I'm pretty sure she was largely out of the business by 1990.

In the episode Terrors, Ojo is about to blow Superboy's cover. But, before he can do it, Miss Martian telepathically compels him to blurt out the name Tommy Terror instead. Question: did Miss Martian merely use her powers to confuse Ojo who was probably already disoriented because of the fight? Or, was M'Gann exerting some kind of mind control? I wasn't aware M'Gann had mind control abilities. Does she?

Greg responds...

She gave him an unexpected shove.

Hey, Greg. Love the Spectacular Spiderman and I've noticed some visual references to the Raimi films(quite a few actaully) but I'm sure there are many more that i missed. Can you point them out besides those?:
Pic in the bugle of spidey stiking to a wall like he does in Spiderman 1 festival parade, Him swinging in the like in, landing on the train and jumping on the building twards the train like in Sm2, the arms binding to doc ock's back, spidey throwing a piece from the highscool fountain like he throws that piece of clock at doc ock in 2, falling airfight with venom in the highscool like the one at the building site in 3.

Greg responds...

There's no way I remember all the references. Not even sure if I'M aware of all the references, since our board artists and directors may have also slipped some stuff in there.

Dear Greg:

First, let me thank you. I´ve been a big fan of yours since the Gargoyles´ days. I´m an amateur self-publishing comicbook writer and you have been one of my biggest creative inspirations.

I only want to ask one question:

With Young Justice returning, do you know if there are any plans to reprint the YJ tie-in comicbooks? I want to buy them to get the full Young Justice experience but they are very expensive right now.

Thanks again and I wish you the best.

Greg responds...

They have been reprinted in a two volume trade paperback format, which is also available electronically through Comixology.

Greetings Greg, as a fan you and your shows I have to ask.
If you could combine Spectacular Spider-Man with Young Justice (or just Marvel and DC in general), what do you think Spider-Man's relationship with each member of The Team and Justice League would be like?
For example:
1) Who would be his best friend on the team?
2) Who would be his Love interest?
3) Who would be his Justice League Mentor?
4) Which YJ villain would be his rival?

Greg responds...

Greg...I am a big fan of Young Justice. And I wanted knows:
1-does the heroes with super strenght are able of holding back even when impaired mentally?
I am asking this because during the Mission on Bee Queen’s kingdom, Conner have punched many soldiers without killing or causing severe damage to them, even in a Berserker like rage. Plus even when mentally controlled, heroes like Clark, Bruce and Barry refuses , even if an subconscious level refuse to break their vows of never takes a life.

2-Is Darkseid enought strong to defeat Superboy with flicker of his finger?
I ask this because on recent midia, Darkseid is depicted as powerful enought to manhandle Superman,and took the entire JL(Clark, Barry, Hal, Arthur, Diana, Bruce and J’onn) to defeat the lord of Apokolips.

3- have the JL fought against Darkseid before the beginning of Young Justice?
I am asking this because nor even Dick( during season 1) shows knowledge of Apokolips existence.

4-during the pilot of Young Justice: Grayson shown surprise on the Watchtower existence, despite his hacker prowess.
This implies Batman’s greatest secrets he hides on his own mind and not leaves them on Computer, where someone could potentially hack information.

Greg responds...

1. I'm not exactly clear what you're asking. Are you asking if any of those soldiers died? Or why they didn't?

2. We haven't seen Darkseid in battle at all. So, No Spoilers.

3. No.

4. Not necessarily. You have to know to look for something to find it.

Did Wally and Artemis break up at some point (in 5 years gap between season 1 and 2) and then got back together? Or they stayed together the whole 5 years?

Greg responds...

No spoilers. But they were, at minimum, largely together for the bulk of that timeskip, at least.

Hello Greg.

I know you don't work for Disney, but regarding their upcoming streaming service and Spectacular Spider-man, I am curious about something. Assuming they would want to add the show, could they or would they be unable to since Sony still holds the show's rights.

Greg responds...

I don't know. But to my knowledge, they haven't added it.

Fangirl writes...

So I wonder about something and I decided to ask you but you'll probably say "No spoilers" but I'm gonna try anyway:
1. Was Zatanna Robin's first girlfriend and was Robin Zatanna's first boyfriend? Was robin Zatanna's first kiss?

2. Was Superboy Megan's first boyfriend and first kiss? I think its obvious about superboy so I'm gonna skip him.

3. Was Wally Artemis's first boyfriend and first kiss? Was Artemis Wally's first girlfriend and first kiss?

Greg responds...

1a. Yes.
1b. Yes.
1c. Well... no.

2a. Yes.
2b. Yes.

3a. Well... no.
3b. Well... no.
3c. Um... it depends on how you define "girlfriend" and who's doing the defining.
3d. No.

I mean, I don't know about you kids, but I was playing spin-the-bottle in sixth grade, long before I ever had a significant other.

Marvelman writes...

I always imagined Wally and Jade liking each other for some reason, and then it hit me: Jade is like a darker, nastier, sultrier version of Artemis. So, my questions are:

1) Do Wally and Jade like each other?

2) Was it your intention to have the two sisters mirror each others personalities to some extent? Or, am I imposing my own interpretation after the fact?

Greg responds...

1. They don't have much of a relationship, honestly, i.e. haven't spent a ton of time together. But I think they had good days and bad.

2. Both.

Hi there Greg in regards to Young Justice, since the cancellation in 2013 and the revival now, have major ideas changed since then? Anything that would be considered a spoiler that you've decided against/change it?

Greg responds...

Our basic gameplan never changed.

Do you remember Superman: TAS?

There was an episode in which Darkseid creates a nuclear fireball and shoots it towards the center of the world to turn Earth into a second apocalypse. Superman stops the fireball by drilling up and down through the ocean floor around the fireball to allow the salt water to quench the fireball. It was an impressive shot with Superman flying up out of the water and then diving back down again, using his own body as a drill - a real money shot.

Two questions. Do you remember the scene I am referring to? And, is YJ Superman powerful enough to perform the same feat?

Greg responds...

1. I didn't see much of STAS after the pilot. That's not commentary; I simply never had the time. So, no, I don't remember that scene as I'm pretty confident I never saw it.

2. So, since I've never seen it, it's hard for me to evaluate. But from the way you describe it, I'd guess the answer is no. But it's just a guess.

Hope this isn't complicating, but I wanted to ask: So Red Tornado was building an android for himself "to party" as Rocket puts it. We get glimpses of other androids like the one for Secretary Tseng. Is there a reason Red's androids look much more,,,unrealistic? I'm probably just picking at random irrelevant details, but I just noticed that the other androids seen always look real.

Greg responds...

John Smith wasn't finished. Then it was partially destroyed. But by Season Three, I think it looked very realistic.

hey greg! gotta ask:

1. How have you been? :)
2. So, what's your opinion on Voltron: Legendary Defender, the one currently airing on Netflix made by Dreamworks? Have you watched it, or worked with anyone who has also worked on it?
3. I wish you knew how excited I am for YJS3, because can't explain in words. :')))
hope you have a good day!

Greg responds...

1. Really good, actually. Got through the pandemic largely unscathed personally. My family stayed healthy, and we all stayed employed. I can't complain. (I mean, I DO complain all the time, but really I shouldn't.) Young Justice: Phantoms is going great guns through Post-Production. So all is well.

2. Haven't seen it, so I have no opinion, but I know a bunch of people who worked on it, and they're all great, so I imagine the show must be great, too.

3. Hope you liked it and are now equally excited for YJS4

You have a good day, too!

Rain fan writes...

Let me just start by saying what a great writer you are. When I found out you were going to write a book I was elated. When I heard of your AudioPlay, I was ecstatic. Which is why I was so heartbroken when I read your comments about the Kickstarter experience and how jaded you were about it. More so because that basically means we won't get an AudioPlay for Book 2.

I'm really sorry it didn't work out like you were hoping. I haven't lost hope of you releasing Book 3, however.

A sincere thank you.

Greg responds...

I haven't lost hope of producing an AudioPlay for Book 2 or of writing Book 3: Masque of Bones. It's not going to happen in the near future, but someday. Just not through Kickstarter.
