So is Delphis a name she was christened with in Atlantis or is it her original name, I ask because Delphis doesn't seem to be an Indian Name.

Greg responds...

Delphis is the name she chose for herself once she moved to Atlantis. She refuses to tell anyone her "given" name. Delphis is the Atlantean word for Dolphin. It's not an Indian name.

Greg Bishansky writes...

Was the first arc of "Phantoms" on Mars at all inspired by Alfred Bester's novel, "THE DEMOLISHED MAN". The entire premise of that book is a society where everyone is a telepath and how one gets away with murder. It was also the first Hugo Award winner way back in 1953.

Greg responds...

I haven't read it and wasn't familiar with the premise, even. And Brandon never mentioned it. So, I'm thinking the answer is no.

Hi, Greg! Hope the final stretch of PHANTOMS production is going as well as can be. I'm absolutely loving the episodes so far!

I had a quick question after watching "Tale of Two Sisters" for the fifth time though, as I realized that this is the second episode in S3/S4 where we've seen Paula Crock visiting Will and Artemis's house in Star City. Last we saw, she lived in Gotham.

If it's not too spoilery, I was wondering if:

A. Paula lives in Star City now?
B. Paula has an A-designation? (Not asking for what it is, just if she has one.)
C. Paula simply takes the occasional cross-country flight to visit her daughter?

Greg responds...

A. Yep.

B. That feels like a spoiler question.

C. No, she moved to Star City.

1 Does the organization B.I.F actually exist in the young justice universe or was that something lex luthor entirely made up for defaming the outsiders?
2 Is metron just wearing makeup or is that his natural skin?

Greg responds...

1. It exists.

2. I guess you'd have to ask Phil Bourassa.

What is Vandal Savage's history with Flash?
How old is Henchy?
Is Henchy his real name?
Why did the Justice Society of America disband?

Greg responds...

1. Contentious.

2. Joe Henchy was born in 1974.

3. It's his real last name.

4. Due to pressure from the U.S. Government, multiple heroes retired rather than reveal their secret identities. Others went "underground." Other than Jay Garrick/Flash, there was no one else around to keep the JSA going.

I've got some questions about "Image."

Why does Queen Bee want to unit Qurac and Bialya?
What was Aqualad doing with Aquaman?
Where were Artemis and Zatanna?

Greg responds...

1. More territory. More power. One less opponent on her border and in her region.

2. Stuff.

3. Places.

In young justice season 4 episode Volatile superboy and beast boy hug and superboy calls beast boy brother. Why and when did Superboy start viewing Beast Boy as a brother ?

Greg responds...

I don't know that there was a specific date I could pin down. But basically, once it became clear that Conner was marrying M'gann, thus making Garfield his soon-to-be-brother-in-law, and once Conner got familiar and comfortable with everyone in Geranium City loosely calling each other brother and sister, it evolved naturally over time.

Hello, Greg. Before I ask my question, I'd like to pay my respects to how Spectacular Spider-Man turned out. I watched it when I was in school and after watching it as an adult, I can say that it was really spectacular.
However, one thing that saddened me as a kid and broke my heart as an adult was how unfairly Peter treated Liz Allan. It was sad, but what saddened me more was that we unfortunately never found out how these events would have affected Liz further, because I think this is a very interesting character whose development and changes I enjoyed watching, and I don't remember anyone having thought that deeply about this character.
My question is this: did you have plans to develop this character in other seasons and how do you yourself feel about Liz?
I'd love to hear your answer.

Greg responds...

I think Liz is a fascinating character and a pretty damned decent human being. We did have plans for her going forward.
