Hey! First off, congratulations to your whole team on such a great show. The details you guys put into Young Justice are just amazing. And since I assume the season finale will have aired by the time you see my question, congrats on that full season two!

Here's my questions: 1. What made you decide to have other family members besides Dick Grayson's parents in the Flying Graysons?
2. Was it inspired at all by the movie Batman Forever (which, as far as I know, is the only other instance of multiple Graysons in the DC universe)?
3. Why did you decide to have his uncle survive the fall?

That's it! Oh, one last thing: thank you for portraying Robin and Batman's relationship differently than usual! There's tons of reasons for Robin to grow dissatisfied with Batman and break off on his own at a later date without them having a strained relationship, and it's a breath of fresh air to see it being handled in that way.

:)

1. Mostly, I'm not going to answer this, but I will say, it never made much sense to me that there were only three Graysons (total). I was also inspired by the Flying Wallendas.

2. No. Or at least not consciously.

3. NO COMMENT.

4. Why does Dick EVER have to "grow dissatisfied with Batman and break off"? That hasn't happened on Earth-16. He's simply grown-up. Their relationship is solid.
