TRUE or FALSE?

In the Earth-16 universe...

#1. Because Saturn Girl was identified as a human during a mental confrontation with M'comm M'orzz in the Young Justice Season 4 finale, this implies her ancestry can be traced back to the first humans who eventually colonized one of Saturn's moons; this presumably being Titan.

#2. The Durlans of the 31st century can trace their ancestry back to M'comm M'orzz and his White Martian followers; who have settled Durla in the 21st century.

#3. Cosmic Boy (Rokk Krinn), Lightning Lad (Garth Ranzz), and Saturn Girl (Imra Ardeen) are the founding members of the Legion of Super-Heroes in the 31st century.

#4. As Lara El was born as Lara Lor-Van, this means she was a member of the House of Van before her marriage to Jor-El.

#5. Alura El (mother of Kara Zor-El) was born as Alura In-Ze, and was, therefore, a member of the House of Ze before her marriage to Zor-El.

#6. The names of the paternal grandparents of Kal-El and Kara Zor-El are Seg-El and Nyssa El (formerly Nyssa-Vex).

#7. Dru-Zod's appearance differs from his counterpart in the comics because it is a nod to his appearance in the canceled Syfy TV series, Krypton, and, as such, it can be assumed that his familial relationship with the members of the House of El and the House of Zod are most likely the same as depicted in that canceled TV series.

#8. Barry Allen's mother (Nora Allen) does NOT die like in the comics, and, as such, she is still alive in the present day, and the circumstances that causes Barry's father (Henry Allen) to be framed for Nora's murder and wrongfully sent to prison also NEVER happens.

#9. The Joker was directly involved in the death of Jason Todd one way or another; regardless if the events/circumstances are different in comparison to what is depicted in the mainstream DC Universe.

#10. Jason Todd and the Red-Hooded Ninja are truly one and the same person; with the cause of Jason's return most likely being the the result of the Lazarus Pit, and his initial inability to recognize his former teammates (as depicted in Young Justice Season 3) most likely being the result of post-traumatic amnesia due to the injuries (presumably) inflicted on him by the Joker.

#1. If an evolutionary offshoot race of the Thanagarians somehow existed in the DC Universe, and if they were an analogue/pastiche of the Shi'ar from Marvel Comics, what would be a good name for such an offshoot race? Also, would this offshoot race likely use the same naming convention as the Thanagarians, or would it be different?

#2. If an evolutionary offshoot race of the Kryptonians somehow existed in the DC Universe, and if they were an analogue/pastiche of the Strontians from Marvel Comics, what would be a good name for such an offshoot race? Also, if this offshoot race were to use a Kryptonian naming convention, would it be based on the traditional Kryptonian naming convention, the ones used by the Phaelosians (who only use the "personal name"-"family name" Kryptonian naming convention for BOTH males and females), or something original?

It's good to see that you're taking questions again. I've spoken to you on Twitter, but like you said, Twitter's quicker, but it's much better here because you get to give a more thorough response, which I like too. You and Station 8 must be more on top of things now.

I thought Young Justice: Outsiders was great and pushing the boundaries more than ever. I've liked more or less everything, except for when Victor was crushed to (near)death. That was hardcore, Greg.

I was only able to watch the first episode of Phantoms, unfortunately, and that was only through the use of my VPN to access that for free, officially, from the DC Fandome. The season has yet to come to the UK in any shape or form, and I'm really surprised Outsiders came.

I did think it was strange how you got Greg Cipes to do the voice of Beast Boy. I guess I would've preferred a new actor to take on the role.

It's not quite the same as Kevin Conroy coming back and doing the same serious Batman for almost 30 years, since your Beast Boy isn't really the same comical Beast Boy from Teen Titans 2003 or Teen Titans Go.

I think he nailed it, though, so that may make my questioning of it pointless. Since Cipes was also Beast Boy on a Lego DC Super Hero Girls movie, I'm wondering if there's an attempt from DC to kind of streamline the voice as the main Beast Boy. Although I'm sure if you didn't want Greg Cipes, you wouldn't have cast him. I doubt it was a DC mandate.

So, I guess that brings me to my first question:
1. Why cast Greg Cipes? How did that come about, was that a conscious decision from you, Brandon, or Jamie Thomason?
2. Another question is about Marvin's goatee in season 4. Was that still influenced by Shaggy from "Scooby-Doo?"

I have some other questions, but are of a different topic, which is Space Ghost, and Hanna-Barbera in general.

3.A How did you and Brandon end up creating your own Space Ghost series.
3B. Why didn't it get picked up?
3C. Was Space Ghost and your own ThunderCats a close thread that kept you around WBA to eventually co-create Young Justice, or were they all separate incidents?
4. Would you still be open to doing your own Space Ghost? Because I would love to see that. With you at the helm, I bet lots could be done.
5. Do you think Hanna-Barbera cartoons belong in the modern era? You tried bringing Space Ghost back, so at least you do with him. But I've also read about other revivals that were rejected, too, such as Top Cat, Blue Falcon, and even El Kabong. While there were times when WBA did greenlight revivals such as Yabba Dabba Dinosaurs and Wacky Races, which were either liked or disliked. Scooby-Doo can't be the only Hanna-Barbera cartoon that's worthy of being continued.

I also want to thank you for answering my Stargate: The Hunted questions, which included the lengthy detailing of the plot, the backstories of the characters, because you were luckily in your office that day. Well, it made my day, but I just never got to thank you until now.

When you said how you hoped a second season would be the good guys going after the bad guys, I was thinking how you could have even changed the name to Stargate: The Hunters, because the hunted have become the hunters. But the original title still works, too. Ha.

It's also nice that Gargoyles is getting new comics and merchandise again. Too bad Disney won't push for another new season from you.

I should close it there as I've taken up enough of your time, Greg. I sincerely appreciate it.

P.S. I was formerly Green Lantern's Nightlight, and going by my real name for some reason. I suppose it doesn't matter which name I use, but I'm trying to bring some continuity, instead of just being random person #5000 (and I know some others here who have been asking you questions for years).

Hello Greg!

This may seem like a pretty oddball question, but its about Wildcat in Young Justice.

I was browsing the Young Justice TV Tropes page and came across Wildcat's picture, where he looks a fair bit darker-toned than the other members of the JSA. So it got me wondering: is he possibly Latino and/or Black on Earth-16, or just very tan?

Usually its pretty self-explanatory, but I went snooping to see where else he might've popped up and he shows up at Kent Nelson's funeral in the tie-in comics, but when I looked at the actual page he looked white. Given the comics back then tended to have more than a few coloring errors (a prime example being the very white, blue-eyed Artemis), I'm more inclined to trust the episode he first appeared in as what he actually looks like, but confirmation would be wonderful.

Thank you, and I hope you're having a great day!

1. I was just on the Gargoyles Wiki and reading on the Gargoyles 2198 stuff and it said that the Illuminati would ally with the Space-Spawn. Was it kind of a full circle thing to have the Light teaming up with the Reach in Young Justice Invasion?

2. I know the Gargoyles do not have the same view or put the same focus on biological family like humans do but what would the closest analogue be for Lexington's relationship with Alexander Xanatos? Brothers, Uncle/Nephew, etc.?

I’ve been watching a lot Spectacular Spider-Man recently and I’ve really been enjoying it. My question is a bit more of a hypothetical, but here goes: The stars have aligned and you get to finally do a continuation of the series, and you’re free to use any of the new Spider-Man characters introduced since Spectacular ended, but there’s one caveat. Due to the overwhelming popularity of the character, the executives want you to bring in Miles Morales as a member of the main cast. How would you go about it?

In the Earth-16 DC Universe, what is the in-universe explanation for the Kryptonian naming convention in which the male naming structure is "personal name"-"family name" (such as Kal-El) the per-marriage female naming structure is "personal name" "father's name" (such as Kara Zor-El), and the post-marriage female naming structure is "personal name" "husband's family name" (such as Lara El)?

Mr. Weisman,

I have three questions I would like to ask you:

#1. At the time of this posting, DC Comics had recently introduced the Phaelosians; an evolutionary offshoot of Kryptonians descended from a fringe science colony who were exiled from Krypton thousands of years ago. Information about this race can be seen in the link provided below:

https://dc.fandom.com/wiki/Phaelosians

My question is this: If Young Justice gets renewed for another season, what are the chances that the Earth-16 version of the Phaelosians will appear?

#2. This next question is just for fun. If there were ever an evolutionary offshoot of Kryptonians in the DC Universe that was an analogue/pastiche of the Strontians from the Marvel Comics Universe; at the very least having the exact same powers and weaknesses as the Strontians, what would you name these people if they ever somehow existed in the DC Universe and what would you name their homeworld? Here's a link provided below in case you don't know who the Strontians are:

https://marvel.fandom.com/wiki/Strontians

#3. This is a follow-up from question #2; also just for fun. If an analogue/pastiche of Marvel Comics Universe character, Gladiator (real name Kallark), somehow existed in the DC Universe, what would be a good superhero name and Kryptonian name that you would give him? This question assumes that you already know that Gladiator is a pastiche of Superboy (since some of the members of Marvel Comics' Imperial Guard are pastiches of members of the Legion of Super-Heroes), and that you know that this question is asking about who would be the analogue/pastiche of an already-existing analogue/pastiche comic book character.

Dear Greg,
Let me just start by saying that I ADORE Gargoyles. it's with out a doubt one of the best series of all time. Even my parents agree ( I got them successfully on board) . The way you incorporate Shakespearian lore into the 20th century New York is phenomenal, but you probably know that already.
I hope you'll be able to spare the time to answer me. I know you're probably very busy, but it would be an honour and a privilege to receive your input.
I'm currently studying for my BA in Archaeology, yet I'm looking into incorporating Animation as well. I'm a writer- I like writing my own stories and drawing my own characters. Initially I thought I'd go for 3D animation, since that's the big thing right now and it's truly fascinating, yet all the TV series I truly love and appreciate are in 2D, such as Disney's Gargoyles, and I want to learn everything- I want to make my own stories and animate my own characters - I want to CREATE, and in 3D animation I get the impression I'll always be dependent on someone else, since it seems like I can't specialize in everything- rigging, sculpting, animating, shading, etc.
The problem is I'm not so sure what I'm looking for-
1) which softwares are important to learn? What should I keep my eye out for?
2) What did you do in order to acquire the tools to create Gargoyles?
3) I read you were initially an English Literature teacher before you became a producer and writer. What caused you to change your profession?
Take care and all the best,
Head of the Gargoyles fan club,
Eliana
P.S- Just so you understand who you're dealing with - we Jews have this holiday called Sukkot, where you basically built a hut outside your house. Every year we have a theme for the decorations of said hut- one year Disney, one year Transformers, etc. Recently we did a Gargoyles theme, and it came out AMAZING. The best decorations we ever had. Perhaps I can somehow send you pics.
Thank you,

Hey, Greg!
I hope you are well and everything is going great with your current projects! I have a Spectacular Spider-man question that I’ve been wondering about for a while: was “Final Curtain” meant to be Spectacular’s version of “The Night Gwen Stacy Died”? The reason I ask is because, first of all, I know you didn’t plan to kill off your version of Gwen Stacy, like in the comics, so a straight forward adaptation would have been off the table from the beginning, and second, I noticed a lot of similarities between how “Final Curtain” ends and the way the comic story ends. Both end with Norman Osborn’s apparent “death,” Harry vowing revenge against Spider-man, and Peter not with Gwen (albeit for VERY different reasons). I know you don’t like to give out spoilers, so this next part is more me sharing what I think: I have a theory that Peter and Gwen were never meant to be, no matter what, and would have gone through the rest of high school as two people who like each other, but just waited too long to admit their feelings and become an official couple. But that’s just my own personal speculation. Thank you for taking the time to answer my question, and read my fan theories. I wish you well in your other projects. Thank you!

Hi Greg,

Not a question, just wanted to say thanks for my childhood. I watched Gargoyles as a kid as I was growing up and I loved it. It gave me an appreciation for Shakespeare and Mythology before I every knew what they were. I remember watching Gargoyles reruns in my parents room as the clock ring midnight from 1999 to 2000, and did the same when it switched over from 2019 to 2020 (though the following year didn't go as planned lol). With Star Trek Picard wrapping up, I wanted to get a TNG enterprise tattoo and am incorporating the Phoenix gate into it because I first heard Frakes and Sirtis in their Gargoyles roles. Essentially, thanks for creating an amazing program and amazing childhood memories. Fingers crossed for a revival show!

Cheers
Nick T.

Hello Mr. Weisman!
I hope you and your family are doing well. I have recently begun re-watching The Spectacular Spider-man, and I think it’s still one of the best adaptations of the character we’ve ever gotten. I realize that, as you’ve said before, it’s extremely unlikely we’ll ever see a third season on TV (hope springs eternal, but it’s clear Marvel and Sony have their own plans for the character going forward), but how likely is it that we could ever see a continuation in comics, or some other media format, similar to what was done with Gargoyles? I know you may not be able to give a concrete answer to this question, but could it ever be a possibility? Thank you for your time, and good luck with all your current projects!

Hi. Just so glad Gargoyles continues again with Dynamite. Rewatched the series again and stumbled over one question:
In the episode "Golem", Preston Vogel was capable of awaking the Golem/alter the spell to send Renards soul into the Golem. Is Preston Vogel a secret sorcerer? Or how else was this possible? (Hope this doesn't count as spoiler request...)
best wishes. Gia

I would argue that YJ (especially season 4) has some of the most diverse, representative, and necessary storylines/characters I've seen in animation. Unfortunately, as you are familiar with it, there is a lot go ignorant people who don't see why it should be included. What do you think is the importance in this being present in animation? (I know what I think, but would love your take!)

Hi Greg. I have been a huge fan of YJ since it aired all those years ago. I hear other shows you have worked on have a similar level of longevity and notoriety amoungst watchers. My questions are as follows:

1. What do you think is the reason projects you work on strike such emotional chords and fans attach themselves to the work so passionately?

2. In regards to YJ, is there a certain character's evolution from S1-S4 (and other works) that has a special place in your heart? (My personal favorite is anything Artemis) If so, why?

3. Have you ever regretted the inclusion of a certain character, story decision, etc in YJ but had to keep it around?

4. From a fan perspective, it is clear that the bureaucratic reasons have continuously stifled the show from using certain characters, storylines, being renewed, etc. What was this experience like behind the scenes? Did you often find yourself battling for certain decisions/being told no on ideas or did you have ample creative freedom?

Hi again. I decided to ask the last 2 question, that anre connected to the witch boy.
1) Recently, I rewatched the whole YJ series (ps we need 5th season so baaaad ahaha) and noticed one interesting thing. In the 3d season we saw that Klarion (even if he’s immortal and just a concept) feels pain. As I understood, the reason why the witch boy wasn’t focused on the mission RuTaBaGa was Beast Boy who turned into a bee and started stinging him. And now in season 4 we see Child maked a huge hole in Klarions body and he was like “I don’t care”. So here is my question: does the witch boy feel pain or he was just pretending in 3d season?

2) if we clearly see in 4th season that the lord of chaos cant be “killed”, only his anchor, and Klarions physical body amazingly functioned after such a serious damage, can we say the same about the lord of order? I mean, I see they use different ways but if the hosts body would take such fatal wounds, will Dr. Fate still able to do anything? Because if no and with the death of the body Dr. Fate will must find another alive man/woman, why the witch boy does not actually try to kill Nabu. (If Klarion does not want to kill Nabu at all just because it would destroy the balance, (what looks weird and non-chaotic a bit to me), I understand it)

Thanks for ur replies in advance!

Does everyone regret or feel badly for discovering too late that Superboy was still alive? It took them months to find out the truth and yet they could've found out sooner had everyone just been a little honest.

Superman had his meeting with the Legion and Zatanna saw her vision of Superboy calling for help. Haven't they realized yet all their secrets have done is only hurt everyone and this was the worst of all since Conner suffered the greatest being trapped in the PZ and suffered mentally, physically and emotionally.

Also Does Zatanna regret waiting MONTHS before she finally told the truth about her vision?

I had some thoughts on Miss Martian abusing her powers that I wondered if you could respond to.

My interpretation of what we saw and were told in season two was essentially that Miss Martian has various levels of "brain blasting" and psychic interrogation. We know her brain blast of Psimon in Image left him incapacitated for years; even by the time of Legacy it seemed he was only partially recovered, and seemingly needed several more months before he was able to escape his hospital room permanently, as described in Beneath. Her attack on Kaldur seemed to be of a similar scale. Everyone seemed to believe he would not recover without outside telepathic aid. I'll call this a Level 2 brain blast for the purpose of this ramble.

On the other hand, the Krolotean she interogates at the beginning of Alienated appears fully recovered by the time he appears at the end of the episode to leave with the Justice League. Granted we don't see him talk or get any idea of his mental state, but he is standing, not drooling, and generally seems okay. Shimmer clearly has fully recovered from Miss Martian's attack in Beneath by the time of Before The Dawn. I'll call these Level 1 attacks.

My interpretation had been that Kaldur and Psimon were exceptional cases, where M'gann was driven by extreme anger that pushed her to go much further than she normally would. In virtually all other cases (unless perhaps hypothetically she were to encounter Queen Bee), her attacks would be at most like the the latter Level 1 examples, incapacitating the victim for hours, days, perhaps a few weeks at most, but they recover fully fairly quickly without need for external help.

This, to me, feels like the only way to make sense of the Justice League (and the rest of the Team besides Superboy)'s seeming indifference to M'gann's "abuses" of power. I can see why Superboy might feel that what she was doing was too much even at Level 1 and that he might fear, rightly as it turned out, that it would lead to greater excesses. But how many times must Superman or Batman or even Superboy himself have given an opponent a bad concussion, put them in hospital for days or weeks, or even a coma? Heck, how often do you come across stories of someone dying from one punch in a drunken bar fight? The heroes must realistically severly injure and kill some people accidentally from time to time, and not just by using lightning powers on a girl with an unkown heart condition. I can see why others might feel it hypocritical to call her out for doing something psychically that they do physically, especially if they aren't aware of how much control over it she has. It raises an interesting moral question.

I find it much harder to see the League or other members of the Team either not noticing or not caring if she was frequently doing to enemies what she did to Psimon and Kaldur. Not without her psychically manipulating them, which you have previously ruled out.

There's also the issue of Nightwing. Beast Boy flat out tells him that M'gann psychically took Kaldur out in Before The Dawn, yet he is shocked when Conner later tells him M'gann fried Kaldur's brain in The Fix. My assumption was that Nightwing (and Beast Boy himself) assumed what M'gann did was the Level 1 version, when in fact it was Level 2. Superboy himself probably even thought that until M'gann told him the truth. It's easy to believe that if what she did to Psimon was a one-off, years ago, when she didn't have as much control of her powers. But it's hard to justify that if M'gann was doing Level 2's with any degree of frequency or recency.

However, many other fans of the show seem to believe M'gann was doing what she did to Kaldur quite regularly, and I've noticed a response or two from you that seems to suggest that the Kroloteans didn't recover and the other Kroloteans refused M'gann's help.

1) So was the Krolotean at the end of Alienated not as well as he appeared? Or was it just the Krolotean leader from Earthlings that didn't recover? Or did he recover and the Kroloteans just weren't telling?
2) Generally, was my original interpretation on the right track? Were M'gann's worst excesses limited to Psimon and Kaldur, or at least exceptionally rare?
3) If M'gann was doing the worst Level 2 brain blasts more often than I thought, were the League and the Team somehow largely unaware of it? If so, how? Would the League not keep tabs on captured villains and notice how they were in extended comas?

Thanks for indulging this long, rambling post.

Hi Greg,

In Alienated and couple of later episodes, we see the trophies the League has on display at the Hall of Justice. Many have been identified (https://youngjustice.fandom.com/wiki/Alienated#Trivia) but there are a few items that haven't been becuase we don't get a good look or they seem fairly generic:

1) In the far right cabinet there is what appears to be a golden... ball? (we never get a good look at this)
2) Next to that is a silver staff wth a round head.
3) In the far left cabinet is a pair of crossed staves which seem the same as the silver one, but gold.
4) Below the gold staves is a set of Japanese swords.

Can you tell us what these are references to, if anything?

There are a number of different types of Apokoliptan weapons that have made their way to Earth. I've tried to compile them all on the wiki: https://youngjustice.fandom.com/wiki/Apokoliptan_weapons

1) Do any of them have names used in the scripts or design process that you could share?

2) The device that Orion deploys from his belt to fly looks like the Astro-Harness from the comics. Is it called that on Earth-16?

When was Red Tornado inducted into the Justice Society of America?

Since you've said Red Tornado was created in 1948 (based on the age you gave him) it must have been that year or later. In the induction flashback we see Doctor Fate, looking just like he usually does, but you've previously said Kent gave up the Helmet of Fate in 1945 and used a different helmet. (https://www.s8.org/gargoyles/askgreg/search.php?qid=13668)

Was Kent's "fake" Fate costume visually identical to the original one? Or should he have been shown with a different helmet and/or costume?

Just finished season 2 recently, love the show!

1. In the episode "Temptation" when Demona rips out a bunch of pages from the Grimorum, did she rip them out at random, or did she know where to turn in order to get those specific spells?

2. According to the different Gargoyles wikis, Demona used all of the spells she stole, save one. But why didn't she use that last spell? Was it a dud or was it going to be the plot of an episode, but then you had a change in plans?

3. I know the Archmage at the Grimorum (it still makes me laugh really hard) and now it's gone forever, but before that, it had changed hands several times, so is it possible that other pages were ripped out and saved by people before the Xanatos acquired it at the start of the show?

I have some questions regarding Oracle. Some parts of this may have been addressed in other questions in the queue, but not all of it and it seemed easier to ask this all together, sorry for any repitition.

Throughout season three we see Dick keeping the fact he is working with Oracle a secret from evryone outside the Anti-Light. At first I assumed this meant Oracle herself was a secret and no-one knew about her, but when the Anti-Light is uncovered at the end of the season it seems clear that everyone knows who she is and what she does.

1) So why does he keep it secret? Is it just because she is officially a member of a team Nightwing is not officially part of and who he shouldn't be communicating with? I'm sure most people would expect them to work together anyway, kind of like Superboy and Miss Martian did.

2) What team(s), if any, has Oracle been a member of? Or is she considered more support now than an official member, like Mal pre-Guardian?

3) Did she leave any team(s) due to the walkout in Princes All? Did she rejoin them in Nevermore?

4) Does Oracle do her own solo heroic hacking work, like in the comics, or does she just provide support for others/act as part of a team?

I've been wondering about Intergang and their relationship with Apokolips. In Disordered we find out Intergang is being supplied with equipment by Desaad. We never see them working with/for the Light, but in Salvage, Sportsmaster says that Intergang had turned from the Light, suggesting they did have a relationship prior to that point.

My theory is that the Reach almost certainly knew nothing of the Light's partnership with Darkseid, and the Light would want to keep it that way, and so needed an excuse for the Apokoliptan tech found on Earth. Thus they used Intergang and its relationship with Apokolips as a smokescreen to cover their own involvement.

Am I on the right track?

A couple of Targets based questions:

1) How did Lex Luthor find out about the kryptonite and Perdita's plan to bring it to the US?

2) How was Count Vertigo free to take part in the events of Revelation less than 48 hours after getting caught at the end of Intimate Connection? Did Arrow and Canary just... let him go afterwards?

3) How did Vertigo have diplomatic immunity in Coldhearted after getting caught trying to murder Queen Perdita?

Honestly that never made sense to me in the first place, given that the Injustice League blackmailed the whole UN, which would include Vlatava. Plus, that Vlatava doesn't seem like such a powerful country that it can stand up to basically the whole rest of the world and say "we know our guy caused billions of dollars of damage and significant loss of life in multiple very powerful countries, but we're not letting you arrest him" and not face crippling diplomatic and economic consequences, or that those countries would just arrest him anyway, whatever Vlatava thinks. But I guess its just the TV version of diplomatic immunity which means a person can just do anything and face no consequences. Bleh. Anyway, sorry for the rant, it's just a trope that bugs me.

Hi Greg, a couple of questions on the batplane(s) if I may.

We see Batman use two models of aircraft in Young Justice, seemingly both at the same time. One, first seen in Revelation, is like a fighter and was explicitly called the Batplane in Coldhearted. The second appears first in Failsafe in space, and then reapppears in Exceptional Human Beings. It is never explicitly named on screen.

1) Is the second model also called the batplane, or does it have another name e.g. batwing?
2) Is the second model accurately depicted in the simiulation in Failsafe> i.e. can it really go into near space, deploy camera units, etc?
3) In the Batcave in Triptych we see what appears to be another aircraft hanging up wiht folded wings. Is this another batplane design? A replacement for the first design which we never see after season two? A drone? Something else?
4) Revelation shows the first batplane is equipped with guns. Exceptional Human Beings shows the second has lasers. In general, how do you feel about the way Batman's "no guns" rule rarely seems to apply to his vehicles? It's always bothered me personally.
5) Does Batman have a rationale for arming his vehicles with weapons he wouldn't use directly himself?

Thanks as ever!

In the original timeline of the 31st century; before Lor-Zod went back in time to kill Superboy, was Kara Zor-El released from the Phantom Zone along with Dru-Zod and the other Kryptonians, or did she remained trapped in there?

What was going on in Ryus' mind before he agreed to Mera's status as High King?

Hi, I was wondering - and maybe it was mentioned in the show and I just forgot - but what was Superman's public debut like, on Earth-16? I ask because the comics have told his origins several times, retconning it a bunch, etc, and I'm wondering if Earth-16 Clark's first public appearance mirrors one of these, or is something different entirely.

John Byrne's "Man of Steel" portrayed Clark's first debu as "the flying man" (without his suit), landing an airplane. Superman: The Animated Series seemed to take some inspiration from this, though he had the suit there.

The Donner films had the classic scene where he catches Lois Lane and the helicopter, and "Superman: Birthright" took heavy inspiration from that (though the context was different).

"Secret Origin" and "Man and Superman" had their own takes. As do a number of else world stories.

So on and so forth. (Most of these had Superman perform smaller, more anonymous acts of super heroics before these points, but it's hard to class that as "public")

I'm confused about something. In the beginning of the series, Superboy is a covert hero, a secret hero that even the public doesn't know about, but yet why did he go out as a public hero in Schooled when he is supposed to remain secret? Did he go just to try and meet Superman or why was going "on a walk"?

Hello, Mr. Weisman. I hope you're doing good today. I've been meaning to ask you a few questions regarding some of the works you've done. I hope you are able to answer to the best of your abilities, and if you can't, that's fine.

1) I know you wrote only one episode, but what information can you tell me about the cancelled Team Atlantis show? For example, what episode plots besides the Gargoyles crossover, Puck, Nessie and the Terracotta Warriors.

2) If The Spectacular Spider-Man did continue for three more seasons, what terms from specific fields of study in high school would the episodes and movies in between seasons have been called and why? Also, how many movies of The Spectacular Spider-Man were planned?

3) Should Young Justice continue after Young Justice: Targets, what loose-ends are going to be tied-up? Also, what plots do you intend to introduce that will lead up to the Team battling the Light in the final showdown?

That's all I wanted to ask. I wish you the best and keep on being an awesome writer!

Sincerely,
Calvin Fujii

Hello dear Mr Greg Weisman,

I am Jacob Katana from Germany!

I didnt know how to contact you anywhere else, so I thought this is the only possibility that I can reach out to you. I don't know if am right here with my request, and I also hope that your supporter of this site will sort my request out of the other messages you get about fan theories and so on.

First of all thank you for sharing your art with the whole world and especially for me as a teenager .you made my .. ,I think it was on Saturday something between 5-8 p.m where I could watch it on television here in Germany, evening very special as a kid! The stuff the made in the early days was on another level. But iam not here because of the gargoyles. I'm here because your magic the gathering books! I didnt know they even existed till know and since I played magic the gathering when I was a kid I had to buy those. They are still on my way!

But as coincidences as it always happen I saw you haven't released a German audiobook version! And I'm actually a Voice Over Artist for commercials, trailer, explanatory videos and especially audiobooks. I like to narrate stories especially in the sci-fi fantasy thriller genre.

You are missing out on the opportunity for very good sales here!

The audio book market is becoming more and more important and it grows constantly. I haven't had a look on the book since Its on the way to me. But my own ambitions to be the speaker for my favorite-game- themed book tells me that I need to do this. And I have no doubt that it will be good! I see a big potential here! I'm sure you could benefit from an audio book version and get a lot more revenue out of it here in Germany.

I could do that for you! I would offer the audio book production for you free of charge as part of a so-called "royalty share".

This means for you: 0 efforts and 0 costs.

I do this as follows:
I'll produce the audiobook, put it out on Audible and take the risk if it doesn't sell. However, if it sells, we split the income 50/50 - that's the principle of royalty share.
As I said, you don't have any expenses or costs in advance and would earn more directly through this - you will open yourself for the audiobook market and will be presented there and appear as an author here in Germany . That would also significantly increase your awareness and popularity.

Does this maybe sounds interesting to you?

You can contact me on kontakt@katanaandvoices.de

I don't know if these reaches you, and don't end in a discussion forum.

Can't hardly wait to here from you.
Best wishes out of the cold and frozen Germany!

Sincerely
Jacob Katana

2. Young Justice has this really cool balance between realism and comic booky stuff. How did you and the rest of the staff decide what aspects would be more grounded and what aspects wouldn't? Like, who wears tights and who wears armor, what technology gets explained etc.

Hello Greg. Big fan of yours
1. If Martian camouflage has nothing to do with light why their shadow vanishes every time they camouflage, shouldn't they still cast a shadow as the light still hits them?
2. With practice could a Martian develop its telekinetic abilities so they could project telekinetic blasts to hit and knock back(or out) and puch away their enemies, as well as telekinetic shields/barriers in order to deflect and protect themselves and other from attacks such as bullets,lasers, etc kinda like the force style
3. I've always thought that Martians camouflage works on the same basis as the comics with a few changes you know "by using their shapshifting abilities to change their biopolymers to reduce their capacity to reflect light they become NEARLY invisible "
Thanks for your time.

1. Do you have any idea how much of the powers the meta-gene gives are determined by genetics? When Vandal's story is told, many of his children have different powers, so it doesn't appear very genetic. However, everyone with the meta-gene in Brion Markov's family has similar powers from the meta-gene.
2. If the powers from the meta-gene are largely genetic, does that mean that there are different mutated versions of it?

Hello Greg !
Coming here to talk about some subject. I just came back from twitter where you said :''Woke isn't a dirty word to me. I WANT to be more woke. What's the alternative - being asleep? Not seeing people for who they are, but deciding for them instead?''.
I thought maybe I could bring my vision (my YJ fan vision) to your thinking.
I don't even know where to start...First of all, how can you not see the orwellian language behind the word WOKE ? I mean, if a politician calls a repressive law "the liberty law" it doesn't mean that by fighting it you're against liberty, right ? It's-just-a-name ! Who's calling that like that ? Who's saying that this represents tolerance and progress ? I mean, seriously : who is ? The words tolerance and progress were existing already, so why using a new name ? Huh ? It's like creating two political parties, calling them left and right, and saying those two are the only alternatives. Because except left and right there is nothing else, right ? Well, maybe center. But you can see the trick here, don't you ? I'm sad you're falling into this.
Now, when you say elsewhere there are more than 2 genders... Scientifically, there are 2 sexes: male and female. Those are ruled by the sex chromosomes, which are XX in females and XY in males. There can be some special cases that we call "intersex" due to sex chromosomes malfunction. But this represents like 0,1% of the cases. Now what the woke people tell us, is that a man who thinks he's a woman IS actually a woman. This is crazy. They're thinking the psychological factor takes over the genetic factor. This is crazy, wrong and dangerous. A man thinking is a woman is still a man... thinking he's a woman. A man thinking is a dolphin must be considered as a dolphin ? Come on ! This is a psychological issue, who must be dealt with psychiatry and not surgery.
Btw, are you in favor of surgery ? Of mutilating children at a vulnerable age ? Taking advantage of a temporary psychological weakness to do irreversible damage to a child ?
You should read Abigail Shrier's Irreversible Damage: The Transgender Craze Seducing Our Daughters. She tells the story of teenage girls taking hormone replacement therapy and sex reassignment surgery because they "feel" like men. The parents can't do anything under the threat of being called trans-phobic or fascist. Most psychologists are supporting this. How can somebody even tolerate that we use irreversible drugs and medicines on teenagers ?
THIS IDEOLOGY IS ACTUALLY DESTROYING LIVES !!! We stopped counting the number of witnesses saying "they encouraged me to destroy my body, cut off my breast (for instance) and now, I realize I was sick and I don't want to change sex anymore but it's too late, my life is ruined and the woke community (of course) rejected me now, calling me a trans-phobic".
Because this is only a temporary state. The few parents who saved their children from this atrocity did it by cutting all contact with people, social media and so on. After a few months, the child isn't talking even about changing sex anymore.
Please, realize the danger of this. If you wanna be tolerant, great. But woke is something else. Something dangerous. It's important to see it.
I'm not seeking to make you think like me, but only to consider it. I think you're doing something very wrong with YJ, especially when addressing to a young audience.
Have a good day still !

In the audio podcast for “City of Stone Part Four,” you mention that the Dynamite Gargoyles comics are written to a three-act structure, like a traditional network TV episode (or at least, the first three issues are). I recall you saying that you started writing the SLG comics more in a “TV episode” mindset, but the Stone of Destiny storyline helped you break out of this. Although you did still then use a three-“act” structure in both that storyline and the “Timedancer” one, and have apparently adopted that to the Dynamite comics as well. I’m just curious as to your process, as a fellow writer: do you find the three-act structure most conducive to telling stories in the Gargoyles universe, and is that why you continue to use it?

This may be spoiler so I apologize if it is, but with Brooklyn and the Iago gargoyle there was some parallels to them, but now Brooklyn found his true love and even built a family while Iago stays alone and now a machine. At the end of possession episode Brooklyn said he'll be waiting when ColdSteel(Iago) returns. Will we ever see the two fight?

I have a question regarding Lexington (Nothing against the choice you made for his love life in the comics) but if there’s any other comic stories you write about him I hope you can eventually have him meet a female who has wings just like his and falls in love with him for his smarts. But perhaps Lex is turned off at her at first because he still struggles to trust anybody.

If this does happen then there could even be a spin off of the female mates of the Trio having their own adventure comic series with Elisa. That would be cool to read. But it is your comics. I.m not a judgy type. But I hope you consider this for another comic series with this idea for the future. I am a huge fan of the whole series overall. Brooklyn being my favorite.

Mr. Weisman,

In the epilogue of "Dark Crisis on Infinite Earths" issue #7, the mainstream DC Universe (Earth-0) appears to now have it own version of "The Light," and it is called "The Council of Light." This version of the group appears to be a mysterious alliance of seven unknown power brokers, and their goal is apparently to wipe out ALL metahumans (both good and bad) on Earth because they believe that metahumans are too dangerous to be controlled or imprisoned. Therefore, they are giving Amanda Waller permission to use every resource available to full eradicate all metahumans on Earth. In light of the revelation of "The Council of Light," my question to you is this: Were you ever consulted by DC Comics about this? I mean, did they needed permission from you to be able to introduce their own version of "The Light" into the mainstream DC Universe; since the group originated from the "Young Justice" animated series first?

Sorry if you've had this question before: -

I've noticed that Disney seems to be remaking a lot of shows lately, and it made me wonder... If Disney was to hire you to do a remake of gargoyles set in modern times; what would you do different in it?

The one thing that stands out to me is the City of Stone saga. I enjoyed those eps a lot, but I imagine you would have to change a few things if it happened today. For one thing, not a lot of people watch live TV, so Demona would have to figure out another way to broadcast her spell to the people (maybe internet). Plus I imagine everyone would know what happened to them at night, since there are plenty of CTV cameras, cellphones to catch images, as well as satellite cameras etc.

Hi Greg,

Since GARGOYLES came back, nobody has yet posted a ramble to Ask Greg as far as I can see and I'm not even sure if you're still looking for them - particularly with the queue so long. But hopefully it is, at least, nice to vicariously share someone discovering GARGOYLES #1. (And if not, since we could be years and many rambles hence by the time you get to this one... oops).

So here, adapted from my S8 first impressions, is my ramble...

NIGHTWATCH

Amazon have annoyed me since they took over ComiXology but I can't fault them here. Getting to my local comic shop before they close at 5.30 is tight on a Wednesday but Amazon delivering the book to my account so early is absolutely perfect for me. I can take a moment in the peace to read before the chaos of the day begins. It just makes for such a pleasant experience.

I also find e-comics my favourite way to read. I can zoom in, the backlit screen makes everything look good but George Kambadais' amazing art particularly benefits.

TEENAGE KICKS

What caught my attention on the preview images was the "all-ages" label. I see it's been adjusted to "teen".

I have mixed feelings. On the one hand, I thought what the SLG series did with the little extra leeway was great, especially in the historical scenes.

That said, I was thinking if it was pushing to stay all-ages I might bring some issues into school for my class. I'm glad the rating has been clarified.

(Since writing this, I listened to VOICES FROM THE EYRIE #27 and it sounds like this book won't quite be as edgy as the SLG books so we'll see).

INSIDE COVER

Great stone aesthetic although I miss the punctuation. I guess new-fangled concepts like punctuation doesn't fit the old-school carved-in-stone look.

I've never heard the term "packager" before in comics and I'm grateful to Craig in the Comment Room for filling me in. Nate, from what I can tell, is doing an absolutely bang-up job of promoting the book.

CITY LIGHTS

I'm really in love with George Kambadais' colours. He does brightness so well. The lens flare is a difficult line to tread - one wrong move and he's JJ Abrams. But he manages it. Dark Age Scotland is given a genuinely fresh perspective with that bright sun on the sea and New York looks glorious. And he is master of the speed line.

The gargoyles all look themselves and yet also there's a real flair to the style. He's just such a great choice to make the book feel completely different and yet still quality.

(Which doesn't mean I still don't want to see the legends Christopher Jones, Karine Charlebois and Greg Guler back in the fold when the opportunity presents. Let's hope those spin-offs awaken as well...)

MOONLIGHTING

Of course it's a full moon. But since this is Gargoyles, it's also probably a trail of breadcrumbs to the actual date - or would be if we could pinpoint how far along Maggie was in "Clan-Building". Based on the moon calendar, my guesses were 20 April or 22 May.

Although I'm really curious to see those initial conversations with Brooklyn immediately post-dance and I kind of hope that one day we revisit that day, I do like that we've had a modest time jump. Small enough that it doesn't feel like we're catching up with radically different people which sometimes I feel can be the risk of a time jump - that you're arbitrarily distanced from the characters and have to rediscover them. But large enough that it feels like a great jump-on point.

DETECTIVE'S PERSONAL LOG

I absolutely love the choice to use Elisa as the POV character. Not only is it brilliant hearing the classic narration in Salli Richardson's voice (okay, only in my head, but still), but it feels fresh and yet also like such low-hanging fruit as the human lead is usually the access point to these kinds of shows - April discovering the turtles or the companion discovering the Doctor. In retrospect, 'Gargoyles' really stood apart in this sense -- it was always the story of the gargoyles and Elisa was, initially at least, just another threat to them. That worked brilliantly for the animated series but it makes this flip feel fresh and yet accessible in the best way.

Another VOICES revelation is that there will be different narrators for the next quite-a-few issues. Will be interesting.

TITLE TALK

Okay, a confession. I LOVE the original show's way of presenting titles. There's something about the font, the colour (including the "Hunter's Moon" variants), the use of capitals and inverted commas that's kind of ingrained in me - I just think the show had the best-looking titles in town. But I appreciate there's no sensible reason to resurrect them and frankly this feels much more fresh and modern and, as titles should be, low key. Also, some of the "Clan-Building" titles had an odd distortion where it looks like the aspect ratio had gone skew-whiff. This looks crisp and great.

There's no secret about Greg's penchant for one-word titles (in which I'm including where the only other word is "the").

At a very (very) quick tot counting chapter titles and books:
Season 1 was 40% one-worders
Season 2 was 64% one-worders
Season 3 85% one-worders

In Season 4, so far: 0% one-worders. What's happened to Greg?! (I love "Here in Manhattan" as a title mind you).

LETTER OF THE LORE

Shout out to Jeff Eckleberry. Lettering is thankless if you do it right and disastrous if it goes wrong. There were a couple of times on the SLG book where it stood out for the wrong reasons (at least in my printings). This issue is perfect -- even though there are a few tricky things to pull off like the Eyrie building panel with two different narrators. And I'm not sure outline-less captions always work for me as a general rule but it suits the art in this issue really well. Superb job.

GNASH

If it's been months I kinda feel bad for Gnash if people are misnaming him. Perhaps his parents prefer Nashville (sentimental reasons?). You'd think Lex would have learned after the Angie thing and a few months is plenty of time for him to get used to a new name. Neither of them look happy at being left by Broadway and Brooklyn.

Lots of subtle revelations here. Gnash has seemingly spent a fair bit of time recently in the UK - or around people who use that slang. Or perhaps just around people who like the sixth 'Harry Potter'. And we have confirmation (I'm not sure it was in "Clan-Building" that Katana is from feudal Japan). I love the "don't ask".

SISTER ACT

It's interesting that Elisa considers them sisters since she is effectively Angela's step-mother. And to be honest, even on the World Tour, I kind of looked at them more of a family unit. Of course, Elisa's a relatively young woman so she's not going to think of herself as a mother figure to an adult conceived a thousand years plus years ago. But I wonder if Angela would see it the same way.

SPINNING PLATES

Owen is just kinda standing there. It's great to see him but he's literally just holding an empty plate and staring. I feel like I'm missing something really obvious...? (It's later been clarified by more eagle-eyed Phoenician in the S8 CR).

THUG LIFE

Great to see Glasses and Jack Dane. Good thing I rewatched "Turf" recently for the first time in years as I forgot Jack Dane had partnered with Brod.

"We made them share a cell because we thought it'd be funny" - does Elisa have any control over prisoner placement?

YOU WERE ONLY MEANT TO BLOW THE BLOODY DOORS OFF

Apparently the book was too exciting because the middle pages of the comic fell out of their staples as soon as I got there. A bit disappointing - I've never had that happen with a new comic before and if it were my first read-through I'd be a bit more taken out of it.

Since then, someone else in the room has reported an issue with the Nakayama copy and the stapling. However, I bought a second Nakayama copy and the inside pages are fine, and the other copies I have are fine too.

The covers are incredible. In any other situation, I'd feel this kind of thing is a bit of a rip-off but in the case of 'Gargoyles' where the breadth of fan interest has, historically, not always been there but the depth certainly has, giving fans a value reason to buy multiple copies just makes sense. I'm not able to support (or frankly, even locate) all of these but my favourite is George Kambadais'. I do like it when there's cohesion between the cover art and the interiors but also it's just a great image. However, the Nakayama and Fleeks variants are runners-up.

STONE COLD

I wasn't sure how Coldstone and Coldfire would go down as we've really seen very little of them as characters outside their Othello/Desdemona/Iago plotline. I like how Coldstone is willing to advocate the "wrong" (or at least the selfish) choice. And Coldfire is more sympathetic but as far as I can tell is responsible for the fire and thus potentially the civilian casualty (who we've since realised is our beloved Jogger - and Todd ID'd the paramedics as from "Deadly Force" which is the deepest of deep cuts. Anyway, it makes me concerned whether or not the Coldduo are really cut out for the kind of work the gargoyles do. Hmm.

I think Coldstone will be proved right though: there is a problem if the gargoyles are only seen by the "bad guys" and don't have any wider representation. I wonder where this will go and I feel like this could have a bigger resonance across the "Here in Manhattan" arc.

BACK TO THE BACKSTORY

I love the way the recap narration here keeps us in the action. This was one of the things that jangled me a bit with previous recaps in Clan-Building #1, #3 and back in the original show in episodes like "Outfoxed" and "The Cage". In "Nightwatch" especially it felt like Goliath telling Elisa something she already knew so the audience could listen in. This feels so much more elegant.

Plus, it's just never as exciting seeing something the second time around. There's no need here to see a Sevarius flashback for the purposes of this issue so we get to see Brendan and Margot instead because... well, of course we do! (Seriously, I got so distracted by the pair of them I missed that this sequence was about the drain at first).

And more cameos - love seeing Erin, Benny and Thug in colour! And always great to see Shari back. (It must be a little weird for the real Erin and Benny that their 'mutate selves' are still, give or take, the same age as they were when they first 'debuted').

QUIET PLEASE FOR THE MAIN EVENT

One of the clever by-products of Elisa narrating the story is that the tone shifts when it goes "quiet" and we're not in her head. Thailog doesn't need an introduction or a name - he's totally the bad guy. And yet the re-use of the close-up mouth angle just emphasises he's a clone.

Thailog's final lines are pretty chilling but I wonder if there's something else happening. I just can't imagine Thailog taking to the languid pace of raising a child. Surely the accelerated pace of clone ageing is more his speed? Yes, a child born to mutates is significant, but he has the mutates' designer almost literally on his right hand. Is it just the link to Elisa that makes him want this specific child? Or is this a distraction? What a bastard.

CLIFF-LOUNGING

No mega cliffhanger for this one - not on the final page anyway. That's fine. I really love how this is kind of a chill issue, just surveying the lay of the land.

9.09% BIGGER!

I admit, I never expected this one to be 24 pages, even though the SLG books were. 22 or even 20 seems to have been such a standard for a long time (admittedly I don't currently read any other comics regularly). I am, of course, delighted.

All told -- I love it. Yes, it's very heavy on introductions but it never feels clogged with it. Everything moves along at a nice pace, we get to see where the clan and key allies are at this point in their lives. Everything feels fresh and modern and accessible. The art is amazing. The dialogue is great.

It pulls off the incredible feat of both feeling like the original series while also feeling like a modern regeneration of it. Just stunning.

Thank you to everyone involved, congratulations Greg and fingers crossed that this is the start of a truly epic reawakening.

4. Is Ice's sister's full name Nikolina Olafsdotter OR Nikolina Olafsdottir? Also, is she is Ice's older sister or younger sister? Finally, assuming she is still alive; like in the comics, how old is she as of the end of Season 4?

5. Is Ice's citizenship identified as Norwegian?

6. Was Ice's as-of-yet-unnamed paternal grandfather an evil person; just like how he was depicted in the comics? Also, is he currently deceased; like in the comics, and if so, how old was he when he died?

7. Was Ice and her sister born into a Norwegian Romani clan; like in the comics?

Mr. Weisman,

#1. What is the gargoyle tradition in regards with dealing with the death of one of their own; in comparison to various human traditions?

#2. Is the gargoyle version of "death by natural causes" like a permanent form of stone sleep; in which very old gargoyles who have reached the natural end of their lives one day turn to stone when the sun rises, but don't wake up when the sun sets? If not, then what actually happens?

#3. Do gargoyles establish parent-child and other familial relationships among generations of their own kind in the modern era; all the way up to the year 2198?

#4. Did Brooklyn became the permanent leader of the Manhattan Clan AFTER Goliath's death (which happens at some point between 2004 and 2198)? If so, how long did Brooklyn held this position before it eventually was passed on to his own successor?

#5. Between 2004 and 2198, was there ever a civil war amongst the gargoyle clans; between those who sided with the humans and those who hated the humans?

#6. Between 2004 and 2198, did Elisa Maza died of natural causes, or did she died in the line of duty, or did she died of a broken heart (assuming Goliath's death was the cause of it)?

Mr. Weisman,

Just to be sure that I interpret the generations of the Kane family correctly in the Earth-16 universe...

#1. At least one generation consists of Martha Wayne, Jacob Kane, Nathan Kane, Philip Kane, and Bette Kane's as-of-yet-unnamed father; even though there's no way yet of knowing what is the actual order of oldest to youngest sibling in the Earth-16 universe.

#2. At least one generation consists of Bruce Wayne, Katherine "Kate" Kane, Elizabeth "Beth" Kane (Kate's twin sister) and Bette Kane; with Bruce being the oldest of this generation, and Bette being the youngest of this generation. As such, the girls would be Bruce's maternal cousins (via Bruce's mother), and Bruce would be the girls' paternal cousin (via their respective fathers)

#3. Bruce Wayne is the ONLY member of his generation of the Kane family whose relationships with his uncles and aunts on this side of the family are considered maternal because his mother was a Kane before she married Thomas Wayne. For Bruce's cousins, all relationships with their uncles and aunts on this side of the family are considered paternal via their respective fathers, but nothing is currently known about their respective maternal relatives via their respective mothers (Gabrielle Kane and Bette Kane's as-of-yet-unnamed mother).

#4. Roderick Kane is the father of Martha Wayne, Jacob Kane, Nathan Kane, Philip Kane, and Bette Kane's as-of-yet unnamed father. Roderick Kane is also the maternal grandfather of Bruce Wayne, and the paternal grandfather of Katherine "Kate" Kane, Elizabeth "Beth" Kane (Kate's twin sister) and Bette Kane.

#5. Elizabeth "Betsy" Kane is the mother of Martha Wayne, Jacob Kane, Nathan Kane, Philip Kane, and Bette Kane's as-of-yet unnamed father. Elizabeth "Betsy" Kane is also the maternal grandmother of Bruce Wayne, and the paternal grandmother of Katherine "Kate" Kane, Elizabeth "Beth" Kane (Kate's twin sister) and Bette Kane.

#6. Nathan Kane's wife was Katherine Webb Kane (with her nickname being "Kathy," and Webb being her maiden name) in the comics. If this is also true in the Earth-16 universe, this means she is the maternal aunt of Bruce Wayne, and the paternal aunt of Katherine "Kate" Kane, Elizabeth "Beth" Kane (Kate's twin sister) and Bette Kane.

#7. Catherine Hamilton Kane (with Hamilton being her maiden name) is Jacob Kane's second wife in the comics. If this is also true in the Earth-16 universe, this means she is the "maternal aunt by marriage" of Bruce Wayne, the step-mother of Katherine "Kate" Kane and Elizabeth "Beth" Kane (Kate's twin sister), and the "paternal aunt by marriage" of Bette Kane. As such, Bruce Wayne and Bette Kane would be considered Catherine's "nephew by marriage" and "niece by marriage," respectively, from her point-of view.

If any of my interpretations on the Kane Family are incorrect, please kindly explain to me as to where I got the facts wrong.

Thank you.

Mr. Weisman,

In the comics of the 2000s, the "Batman of Zur-En-Arrh" is depicted as a violent and unhinged backup personality of Bruce Wayne that was created by him as protection against psychic attacks. As such, this personality is essentially Batman WITHOUT Bruce Wayne. Will we ever see the Earth-16 version of the "Batman of Zur-En-Arrh"?

1. In the Earth-16 universe, when a female Kryptonian from one House is married to male Kryptonian of another House, is she no longer a member of her former House? For example, since Lara Lor-Van married Jor-El and became Lara El, is she no longer a member of the House of Van? Likewise, since Kara Zor-El's mother, Alura In-Ze, married Zor-El and became Alura El, is she no longer a member of the House of Ze?

2. What is Lor-Van's (Lara El's father) exact relationships with each of the known members of the House of El in the Earth-16 universe; starting with the most recent generation (Jonny Kent) and then going backwards? Be sure to indicate paternal and maternal relationships of each character in relation to Lor-Van if necessary; for Jonny Kent's case, it's also a biological relationship.

3. What is In-Ze's (Alura El's father) exact relationships with each of the known members of the House of El in the Earth-16 universe; starting with the most recent generation (Jonny Kent) and then going backwards?

#4. In regards to the Kryptonian who is the father of Jor-El and Zor-El, the paternal grandfather of Kal-El and Kara Zor-El, and the paternal biological great-grandfather of Jonny Kent, is the man's Kryptonian name spelled out as Seyg-El (like in the comics) or Seg-El (like in the Syfy TV series, "Krypton") in the Earth-16 universe?

#5. Is Ter-El the father of Seyg-El, the paternal grandfather of Jor-El and Zor-El, the paternal great-grandfather of Kal-El and Kara Zor-El, and the paternal biological great-great-grandfather of Jonny Kent?

Hi, Greg!

In anticipation of the new Dynamite Gargoyles comic, and because of the Paris clan's inclusion in YJ Targets, I tracked down a copy of "The Flashback of Notre Dame." It was a fun little read! I'm a big fan of both Chris's and your work, so it was cool to see your first (I think?) collaboration.

Just a couple questions:
1. Why was the Brooklyn analog named Monmarte? I'm admittedly not super familiar with New York or Paris, but I assume there's a parallel between the two, in the same way as Broadway and Montparnasse or Lexington Avenue and Champs Élysées.
2. Same question for Bronx and Rive Gauche.
3. Between Coldstone and Coldsteel, which corresponds to Cyrano and which to Christian?
4. Is the Paris clan less antagonistic than the Wyvern clan? It struck me as odd that Diabolique and Thomeheb were still part of the clan despite being named "Demonic" and identified as the evil twin, respectively.
5. What is the exact text of the Archmagus's spell, including the "man of silver kissing his betrothed on the last full moon of February" caveat? (Kidding, kidding... unless?)

One final thought: have you seen the recent film musical adaption of Cyrano de Bergerac starring Peter Dinklage? I liked it a lot, though admittedly i haven't read the original play.

Thanks again, and I can't wait to read the first new Gargoyles story since I discovered the series! WE LIVE AGAIN!

Regarding Orphan/Cassandra Wu-San, I was wondering if there was a reason you decided to write her in such a way that wouldn’t allow her to eventually learn how to talk. On other earths/in various comic runs, she did eventually learn how to speak, since speech was deprived from her rather than forcibly taken (growing up in an environment without speech vs having her vocal cords removed), so I was curious why you decided to take such a different route with Cass.

I've been watching Spectacular Spider-Man again and I have a few questions relating to some pretty minor characters:

1) Do the various security personnel members that Tombstone employs have names? They're all so visually distinct that I figured they would but I can't find anything about it online.

2) What is Coach Smith's first name?

3) Was "Benny" meant to be the show's legally-secure version of/allusion to Ben Urich?

4) Similarly, there is a girl with pink hair in the background of various scenes set in Midtown High that reminds me of when Jessica Jones was Jewel. Was this an intentional visual nod to Jessica or am I just reading too much into things?

5) You've said that there are currently 782 characters within the world of Young Justice as of the end of Targets; do you have an exact number for how many characters there are within the world of Spectacular Spider-Man as of the end of season two?

I know you’re probably sick of the religion discourse but I’d like to throw in something that I feel like you’re missing. We’re living in a time where fundamentalist religious minorities are taking over governments all over the world, from the US to Iran, Russia, Israel, India, Saudi Arabia, Egypt, etc. people are struggling against extremist conservative regimes that use Judiasm, Chrisitianity, Islam, and Hinudism to justify their actions. While it’s not fair to blame the entire religion, reality is that people are increasingly turned off by organized religions being shoved down our throats. In America, there are inescapable Christian undertones in media and literature. People are for sure interested in exploring different identities in entertainment, including religious groups, but those shows require a narrow focus so the issues can be explored in depth. Or there’s a way to weave these things into characters without focusing on it, like they did in Moon Knight. In a show like Young Justice, I’m sorry but it comes off more like a preachy after school special. It’s shallow. Iran just murdered a woman for a strand of hair sticking out of her hijab and killed hundreds more for protesting about it. At the same time, covered women are vulnerable to hate crimes in non-Muslim countries. No matter where they go, they’re the ones suffering. If you’re going to dedicate an episode to talking about the hijab, you need to do a lot more to actually add something of value to the discussion.

Firstly, loved season 4. Especially Zatanna's arc.

I was very interested to see a little more about the Lords of Order and Chaos this season, and impressed by how Vandal essentially trapped the Chaos Lords by bringing up Darkseid.

Regarding the Lords, we see that they require an anchor to the physical world to affect it. Nabu has his helmet and possesses a host, whilst Klarion and Child have familiars.

1.) I was curious whether this is a pattern amongst the Lords. We've seen Klarion can choose an anchor when he's desperate. Are there those who align with Order that opt for a familiar instead?

2.) Klarion notes that the familiar chooses him, implying a mutual bond. He certainly seems attached to the idea of a cat as his familiar. Child on the other hand appears to act more strategically, choosing a diamond as her familiar. Is this a matter of preference? Klarion preferring a mutual bond with a living creature whilst Child was more practical in creating a diamond golem. Or do the Lords have different vessels suitable to their manifestation?

Hello and sorry,
I miscalculated something for this question [https://www.s8.org/gargoyles/askgreg/search.php?qid=28825]. On Avalon, six months would be roughly twelve years. According to you, if Ophelia laid an egg in 2008, and gargoyles carry the eggs in their bodies for six months before laying them, she would have been pregnant roughly since late 1995, early 1996.
If it is to remain that Ophelia and possibly other female gargoyles of the Avalon clan laid eggs in 2008, were they pregnant shortly before or after the archmage's attack?

Jan Rott writes...

Hello,
In that old answer [https://www.s8.org/gargoyles/askgreg/search.php?qid=1627] they meant that Ophelia would lay an egg in 2008. But the gargoyles are supposed to carry the eggs for six months before they lay it. Since six months on Avalon is roughly 14 years, she must have been pregnant since 1993 or 94. This means that she and possibly the other females were at risk during the Archmage's attack.
Should it stay with this setting or will something change?

This is a Gargoyles question I have been thinking about asking for years and in light of its upcoming return (which I will be buying as a matter of urgency) feels appropriate to ask now:

The vast majority of human style magic (aka the sort we see used by mortal practitioners such as the Magus, the Archmage & ironically enough Demona) is described as requiring training to perform; the Magus mentions his training and Demona serves as the Arch age's apprentice. At one point Xanatos directly dismisses the idea of trying to use the Grimorrum to counter Demona because he is not a trained sorcerer himself, which to me at least, suggests merely having the spellbook and speaking the words are not enough to produce magic.

I am therefore writing to ask if there is any set in-universe list of things any would be sorcerer needs to learn before those words have real power (if its a spoiler to say what that list is that's fine, I'm just curious if there is one)?

Both in and out of universe, what was the reason for the Terror Twins' design change, namely why did Tommy go from looking like Superboy to having the physique of Bane or Mammoth? It's a pretty radical change, especially when compared to Tuppence, who mostly just lost the ponytail, so I'm curious as to why you decided on it.

Also, are the Terror Twins Metahumans (In the sense that they have active Metagenes)?

Mr. Weisman,

I came across this link on the internet provided here below.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superman_dynasty

Aside from all the Kryptonians that have already been mentioned/seen on "Young Justice," I want to know first which Kryptonians from the House of El, House of Van, and House of Ze mentioned in the link above also exist in the Earth-16 universe; even though they have been mentioned/seen yet? Secondly, after you are able to confirm which members do exist in Earth-16 universe, I want to know what are each Kryptonian's relationship to Kal-El, Kara Zor-El, and Kru-El; that means in terms of paternal and maternal relationships? The reason I am asking these questions to you because I am trying to figure out the Kryptonian family tree in the Earth-16 universe; in comparison to other versions in the DC Comics multiverse.

Thank you for taking the time to answering my questions whenever you can and to the best of your ability. :)

Was there any pushback to you changing the ending of the Judas Contract when adapting it during Outsiders, or was everyone pretty much on board with doing a new spin on the storyline?

Hello again Mr. Weisman! Nice to see you're allowing questions to be asked again! And let me just start by saying that I Think Your Stuff is Great, Always Did! And I Can't wait to see the New Gargoyles Comics that are Coming out!

And Now here's my new Question if you don't mind

Since John Castaway is Really Jon Canmore and He KNOWS that Xanatos Brought Goliath and his Clan to to New York to Begin with, is it safe to say that Castaway Finds Xanatos Responsible for the labeled "Gargoyle Problem" of New York?

And if So, is it also safe to say that If Castaway Did somehow succeed in Destroying the Manhattan Clan, he would go after Xanatos for Bringing them to New York?

If the Question's considered a Spoiler, it's Not Intended!

The Mars arc speech seemed to be loosely inspired by the civil rights movement and the I Have a Dream speech. Is that the case? I’d love your take on these lesser known MLK quotes -

~ Most whites in America, even those of goodwill, proceed from the premise that equality is a loose expression for improvement. White America is not even psychologically organized to close the gap â€" essentially, it seeks only to make it less painful and less obvious but in most respects retain it.~

~ Our white liberal friends cried out in horror and dismay: ‘You are creating hatred and hostility in the white communities in which you are marching. You are only developing a white backlash,’” he wrote. “As long as the struggle was down in Alabama and Mississippi, they could look afar and think about it and say how terrible people are. When they discovered brotherhood had to be a reality in Chicago and that brotherhood extended to next door, then those latent hostilities came out.~

Basically, he’s talking about the hypocrisy of performative white liberals who welcomed his easily digestible messages of peace but turned hostile when he pointed out the racism within themselves and their communities. He has written that this type of white is more dangerous than the overtly hateful ones, because they dilute his message and offer nothing but empty words. I think it’s similar to what people are trying and failing to explain to you when it comes to the way you’ve portrayed certain minority groups in this show.

Thoughts?

Hello Mr. Weisman,

When responding to criticism on representation of minorities on Young Justice, I have seen you repeatedly say that you should be able to do whatever you want. But do you understand that your content does not exist in a vacuum? Media is an incredibly powerful tool to spread propaganda and stereotypes that lead to real world consequences that affect real life minorities - that’s why we get so upset about it. Some examples: vilification of Arabs and Muslims in media and news has desensitized Westerners to killing thousands of innocents in the Middle East, associating immigrants with crime leads to people voting for candidates with more extreme positions against them, and the widespread belief that bisexuals are promiscuous and unfaithful makes them the most vulnerable group to domestic violence. All three of these stereotypes have played a part in your show. It is not something writers do on purpose, this is how implicit bias works, but I find your responses over the years troubling to say the least. At the end of the day, you’re not the one who has to deal with those real world consequences, so you may have trouble seeing the connections. I think it’s okay to say you don’t understand where someone is coming from because your life experiences are so different. The way you’ve been behaving makes me very sad because I used to admire you, but I can no longer support the content you make.

Hi, Greg!

Since Wonder Woman and Troia are both princesses of Themiscyra, and Wonder Woman does not appear to have aged (at least not very much) over time in Young Justice (across the four seasons of the show), I have to wonder if the Amazons age very slowly physically (or do not physically age at all), even when they are away from Themiscyra. This leads me to my first question.

1) Given that Troia may be ageing slowly (or not at all), and that she is biologically 20 years old in season 3 in Team Year Nine, was she ALSO biologically 20 years old when she joined the Team in Team Year Two?

2) Another quick question. We have not seen Troia and Cassie interact in Young Justice, but would you please be able to confirm what kind of relationship they have -- do they get along? (I'm not looking for a detailed answer here as I know that that would be too spoilery.)

Hello Mr Weisman,
I hope you have been having a good week.

First off I would like to thank you and your whole team for bringing Young Justice to life. YJ has been a huge bright spot in my life, especially in a time where there were not many bright spots to go around. I look forward to any more stories from Earth 16 we may get, in whatever form that may be.

As for my question, I was wondering if you have ever tossed around the idea of doing an Earth 16 guide book or art book? I find the behind the scenes of show making and design very fascinating, and it would be very cool for there to be a printed book where the fandom could get a look at the process that you and your team put in to create the show visually and story wise.

Thanks for taking the time to answer questions on here!

1a. Does this hint to Kid Flash (Wally West) being about 1/5 Flash/Impulse's speed at the time of their conversation since he got about every fifth word?

2. Did the clone body of Arion have water breathing added by the Light since the original Arion's metagene was longevity? Or was he using his magic to survive?

3. Could Vandal Savage survive in the vacuum of space? Or would he pass out and then as soon as his body was exposed to oxygen he would awaken? Would it be the same if he was trapped submerged in water or would his body adapt and grow gills?

Thanks again!

Is there an out-of-universe reason why a lot of Team members go inactive while many Justice Leaguers don’t? Off the top of my head characters former Team members like Troia, Garth, Karen, Mal, Freddy, Mary, etc have left the hero life, while only two Leaguers, Will and Orin, have left (and Orin later returned), even though the League was founded years earlier.

My actual question is that since Gargoyles existed in all the other parts of the British isles, with Scotland seeming to have a particularly large number of clans, would the just as mountainous Wales have had a large Gargoyle population once with multiple clans living there? I just remember you saying Gargoyles preferred high cliffs and mountains and Wales sounded like it would have been a perfect place for a large Gargoyle population before humans got them.

Hey Greg, i know this doesn’t necessarily only apply to the YJ show as it also applies to the comics and to Marvel, but what is the Earth-16 in-universe explanation for how the Justice League/superheroes seem to have the technological capability of travelling interstellar distances across the Milky Way Galaxy but regular humans/Earth governments/space agencies seem to be in the same place technologically as we are in real life when it comes to space travel and exploration? i noticed that in the first episode of Season 4 we saw a glimpse of the Curiosity rover on Mars, which is actually what led me to ask this question. why aren’t there already human colonies on Mars or on other celestial bodies in the solar system or even outside the solar system when humanity on Earth-16 clearly seem to have the technology that would allow them to do so?

of course this is assuming that Earth’s governments and space agencies on Earth-16 are in the same position technologically as us in real life but if that’s genuinely the case, then why is that compared to the Justice League/superhero community?

1) Is Black Mary able to transform back into her normal human form (assuming that she has a choice and is not being prevented from doing so by others like Granny Goodness), or is she now stuck in this form?

2) Hypothetical question now so I imagine you might not answer, but I'll try anyway. If Black Mary were to transform back into Mary Bromfield and then say "Shazam!" *after* that, would Mary have a choice (or any control whatsoever) regarding whether she would end up in her Black Mary form or her white Sergeant Marvel form? Basically I'm asking whether Mary could choose (*by herself*) to take the white costume form over the black costume form, or vice versa.

(If the answer to question 2 is yes and Mary *could* make this decision somehow inherently, I imagine that there would possibly be criteria such as her state of mind (i.e. whether she intends to do good or do evil), but I don't want to get into her state of mind as I don't want to overcomplicate the above questions.)

Based on what happened in the post-credits scene in the Season 4 mid-season finale of "Young Justice: Phantoms," it appears that Granny Goodness has likely somehow been keeping watch on Mary Bromfield for quite some time; presumably from the moment she stopped becoming Sergeant Marvel up to the conclusion of the Zatanna story arc in Season 4. She likely somehow observed that Mary had a power addiction problem and likely determined that Mary was a potential candidate to become a member of the Female Furies if she took advantage of Mary's problem. Once a heartbroken Mary left Zatanna's team due to being excluded from the Doctor Fate rotation, Granny Goodness spoke to her telepathically and filled her head with lies; thus causing Mary to succumb to her temptation and turning her into Black Mary. Is my interpretation of Granny Goodness' involvement in Mary's turn into a supervillain correct?

Mr. Weisman,

Since the Earth-16 version of Batwoman did not become a hero until 2016, I have tried to guess as to when the Earth-16 version of the events of "Catwoman: Hunted" most likely happened in the timeline and I have three possibilities in mind:

#1. It could have happened at any point during the two-year period in-between Seasons 2 and 3; aside from the January 2018 flashback from Season 4 that took place at the United Nations.

#2. It could only have happened during the one-year period in-between Seasons 3 and 4; since she temporarily resigned from the Justice League and was working as a member of Batman's team during the events of Season 3.

#3. It could have happened at almost any point off-screen during the events of Season 4; since Batwoman only appeared in the flashback that is set in early 2018, and she was also NOT present at Superboy's and Miss Martian's wedding. This also account for Child's attack all around the world; meaning the events of the film could only have happened at some point before or after the incident occurred. Additionally, Talia al Ghul had only appeared in two episodes of Artemis's story arc, and she didn't appear for the rest of Season 4.

As such, my question for you is this: Which one of these three points in the Earth-16 timeline that I presented above is correct for which the Earth-16 version of "Catwoman: Hunted" likely takes place? Please also explain as to why whichever point you choose is the one that makes the most sense to you.

4) Do you have plans to use Lilith Clay in any possible future seasons of YJ?

When Damian Wayne was first introduced in the comics, it was eventually revealed that he was genetically perfected and grown in an artificial womb, and was intended to become formidable warrior. In the current continuity of DC Comics, Damien was conceived during a brief fling between Bruce Wayne and Talia al Ghul (when they were both young adults), and then after Damian was born, Talia used the extensive scientific resources of the League of Assassins to inorganically speed up Damian's aging giving him the physiology of a ten year old in less than five years.

However, in the Earth-16 universe, it APPEARS as though Damian's birth is a natural one; without any kind of genetic manipulation whatsoever. As such, was Damian's conception a direct result of Bruce and Talia truly (and briefly) getting back together, or was it a result of Talia's manipulations against Bruce in order to get herself an heir to Ra's al Ghul's legacy? Finally, is the Earth-16 version of Damian also identified by his other name, Ibn al Xu'ffasch (which means "Son of the Bat" in Arabic)?

Arc 5 "Rocket" Ramble

Another really great arc for me. Loved Rocket, loved the family angle, loved the way the New Gods were handled, I liked seeing Lor-Zod and his team as sort of an "anti-team", the Metron stuff was great, I LOVED the Green Lantern stuff, it pretty much single-handedly got me to watch the entirety of the Green Lantern Animated Series, and that was good too so. All around great arc.

I love the take on some of the New Genesis stuff here. This is sort of a difficult subject to incorporate because it's been done quite a few times before, and I think very successfully in terms of the Superman: The Animated Series. The New Gods mythology also requires a *plethora* of lore and exposition. I watched this with my cousin, who knows very little about the New Gods. And he was a little confused, we watched the Superman: The Animated Series episodes featuring Orion & Apokalips & Darkseid, and they opened up their New Gods storytelling with the Mother Box showing Superman a little short infotainment video about the history of Apokalips & New Genesis and I think that helped a bit.

Not a big issue for me, though, all things considered. I've honestly always liked that Young Justice doesn't hold hands about arcane comic lore, a lot of it is pretty easy to just infer from visuals and personalities. White-haired man dressed like a shepherd is good, man with fiery eyes who looks like he hangs out in hell is bad. It all works.

M'Comm continues to kind of be an issue for me. I feel like he hits a weird spot. He's not sympathetic or humanistic enough for me to sympathize with him, and he's also not really outright vicious enough for it to be much fun when he gets taken down. He just leaves me feeling kind of ambivalent unfortunately. And I really *want* to like him. Having said that, I thought his dynamic with Lor-Zod and Mantis was great. Lor-Zod makes a good impression, I think the character was a *little* young for Phil Morris's baritone, but he does a great job with the character.

I can't quite remember which arc had the Superboy stuff where, so I'll just talk about it now. I really liked this for Superboy. This was a cool way to introduce the Phantom Zone prisoners, who have been a bit hokey as far as villains go over the years. They're kind of weirdly archaic in theory. Mostly because they're so associated with Terrence Stamp's portrayal from the second Superman film I think. Beyond that, what do you really do with a team of all-powerful supervillains who want to conquer the world. Well... this. I love the use of cult imagery here, the song is great. I love how Superboy is seduced by Zod, Zod is genuinely persuasive and compelling.

Superboy's mindset is also really clear here and it works really well.

Rocket is another character here who's just kind of like a catalyst or sort of centrepiece for this wacky outer space story about near immortal gods and aliens and space ships. I'm kind of, of two minds on her arc really. To an extent. On the one hand I like how sort of normal her arc is. She's just struggling with life. She's a single mom, trying to co-parent with her ex for a kid who has particular needs that she doesn't necessarily understand. And the opening scene really just sets up that she's not good at it. The closest thing she has to a moment of crisis is that a subway station is closed and it upsets her son.

I LOVE it, because it's so normal. There is no dramatic impetus, there is no light switch that Raquel needs to flip to become a good mom, she's going to go back and keep living her life, but maybe now she'll have a better attitude, some perspective, a bit more understanding of her situation because of her experiences. It's simple, it's nice. But because it's not very dramatic, there's no real engine to drive her story here. There's no clear arc necessarily. It's just kind of a bunch of stuff that happened. Which, as I've mentioned before, I'm really fine with. There's enough other things going on to make up for it.

Orion I liked a lot. I'm sort of unfortunately comparing it in my mind with other versions of the character (in this case, the Superman:TAS/JL/JLU version played by Ron Perlman), which isn't fair, but there's a lot to like about this version honestly, so it's not like he compares badly anyway. I think there was a tone to the New Genesis characters in the DCAU where they felt sort of grand and elegant and truly super-heroic. The boom tube effect in that show was pure white, and it always felt like rays from heaven or something. And the characters themselves felt like characters out of a bible cartoon or something. And they have a lot more grit in Young Justice (and to be fair *everything* has a lot more grit in Young Justice). It's not worse by any means, just different. In regards to Orion, from my limited understanding of Autism I don't think interpreting Orion as an autistic character is even a stretch frankly. He's a lot more brusque in Young Justice than he's been in other shows I've seen him in, but the sort of core of the character is still very much there. Also I'm a sucker for a story where a character overcomes their mental health struggles. Maybe that's not the right terminology or framing exactly, but when a character who has mental health struggles succeeds. It's nice to see.

The Green Lantern episode we got was so cool, as I said it got me to watch the entire series that was based on. This is one of the episodes which felt refreshing because it was such a stand-alone story. I watched it, it was satisfying, it didn't leave me feeling ambivalent. And I sort of missed those strong self-contained stories a bit with this season. Even if it was setting up Metron and some other elements for other stories. Also Razer was a total smoke-show. That's not really substantial, or important, but it made watching the episode more fun.

I was a *bit* surprised Dee Bradley Baker was playing Tomar-Re when he was played by Jeff Bennett in GL:TAS and Jeff Bennett has been a major cast member in YJ as well, but Dee Bradley Baker was cool and I suppose Bennett may have just been unavailable or there was some good ol' cost-cutting double-casting going on with Baker.

Oh, and the Foragers... I'm indifferent. It was cute. Reciting Shakespeare with third person pronouns was cute. I really liked that femme Forager became a Green Lantern. That was a cool surprising twist.

I think that's everything. It was great. Thoroughly enjoyed watching all four episodes.

A "Young Justice" question I've wondered about a bit and finally decided to submit. In "Secrets", you featured allusions to both "Beowulf" (the Sword of Beowulf, complete with Grendel's arm for its scabbard) and Cain and Abel (I recall one of the locations in the episode was called "Abel's House of Secrets" - which definitely matched Harm's great evil deed being murdering his sibling).

In the original poem "Beowulf", Grendel is described as one of the descendants of Cain (who was punished for his murder of Abel by having his children be monsters); did this inspire the allusions to both "Beowulf" and the Cain and Abel story in the same episode? Or is it just a (neat) coincidence?

I can see why it didn't get made; I can imagine someone in the Disney administration being a bit nervous about Biblical characters (the originals, rather than namesakes) - if from the Old Testament and not directly religious ones - though I recall an episode of "Pinky and the Brain" which also featured Samson and Delilah (complete with the "jawbone of an ass" incident). I got a smile at the original Goliath showing up in the story, too (a bit early from the point of view of Biblical chronology, but then, given that the "Hercules" animated series often had people from Greek mythology and classical Greece, such as Pericles and Herodotus, as contemporaries....).

Mr. Weisman,

#1. Apparently, some rude individual had posted a message to you asking you to delete all the questions that I have been anonymously giving to you. I honestly find that person to be utterly disrespectful simply because of the fact that they feel that I posted a lot of questions recently (as of the time of this posting). If you truly feel that I have pestering you with my questions, and if I've somehow gotten you angry, I apologize.

#2. In your responses to certain postings, you previously claim that you needed to do some research in order to be able to answer specific questions (such as the full names of the characters). Now, if I recall correctly, there is a source book called "The DC Comics Encyclopedia," and the first version of that book came out around 2004. Three updated versions of it came out in 2008 ("The DC Comics Encyclopedia: Updated and Expanded"), 2016 ("The DC Comics Encyclopedia: All-New Edition"), and 2021 ("The DC Comics Encyclopedia: New Edition"). If I also recall correctly, I believe in the cases of all editions of "The DC Comics Encyclopedia," the publisher of these books is identified as Dorling Kindersley Limited (branded as DK). If could offer one important key piece of advice to you, it would be this: I would recommend you get all four editions of "The DC Comics Encyclopedia," and then keep getting new/updated editions of it whenever they come out. If you follow this advice, it might end up being quite helpful to you in the long run when trying to stay up-to-date with information regarding the DC Comics Universe.

This has been bugging me for a while. When Conner's hair burnt off in the lava, I noticed it's roughly the same place where Phantom Girl placed her hand when she sent them both into the Phantom Zone in order to save his life. Did Conner's hair burn off because Phantom Girl placed her hand on that part of his head or was it really just the lava?

1. Previously you said Black Canary and Static have secret identities despite not wearing masks, with the reasoning being along the lines of “it’s like Clark Kent and Superman/we want them to look like their comics versions/you just sorta have to roll with it” (sorry if that misrepresents what you really said).

With some exceptions, like Jaime being outed by the Reach or Garfield being green, is this generally true for all the public heroes who don’t wear masks? For example, would the general public not realize that Ed and Cassie are El Dorado and Wonder Girl?

2. Additionally, do characters with publicly well known identities who don’t wear masks not have secret identities? For example, does the general public know that “Zatanna Zatara the stage magician” is the same person as “Zatanna” of the Justice League?

3. How do the public superheroes without secret identities deal with the fame?

4. Since the Light already knows who all the heroes are (even the ones on the Team) at this point, is the use of code names mostly out of habit/tradition or just to protect them from common criminals (or both)?

Thank you!

Hi Greg,

Hey Gregâ€"hope this finds you well. Had a Gargoyles question and some Spec Spidey questions.

1. Now that Gargoyles is coming back in comic book form, do you have new ideas that you didn’t think of back when you were working on the SLG comics that you plan to incorporate into the new series? Not asking for what they are.

2. Why didn’t Curt Conners test the Lizard formula on a rabbit or mouse like in the comics and other versions? It just seems a bit out of character for Curt, as a scientist, not to test the formula on another animal and to use himself as the only Guinea pig?

3. Did Curt know that Electro juiced the Lizard serum? I know he eventually found out since he basically shot down Warren in season 2 when he recommended using electricity for mammalian DNA. If he did know, again I wonder why didn’t he especially test the serum.

Hope you are well. Recently introduced Gargoyles to my best friend after he loved Spectacular and he’s really into it. Deadly Force really impressed him. Cheers!

If the Earth-16 version of Kara Zor-El willingly joined the forces of Apokolips as a member of the Female Furies (as opposed to being brainwashed; like in the comics), is it correct to assume that her decision is most likely influenced by the fact that she had spent over 40 years in the Phantom Zone and she had most likely completely succumbed to the Zone-Sickness; which was likely far worse for her (assuming this is due to her own youth and inexperience) than what Superboy himself had suffered (since he had been trapped in the Phantom Zone for MONTHS; whereas Kara had been trapped for YEARS)?

Mr. Weisman,

The reason why I previously asked you if the full name of the Earth-16 version of Bruce Wayne is "Bruce Thomas Wayne" is because in the DC Rebirth continuity, Bruce's full name was revealed in "Batman" issue #20; the fifth and final issue of the "I Am Bane" story arc. In the end of that issue, Bruce's full name was addressed by his mother (Martha Wayne) when he had a vision of her. And yet, when I previously asked you about Bruce's full name being the same in the Earth-16 universe as it currently is in the comics, you yourself said, in your exact words, "Not necessarily." If you require proof, look on the link here below.

https://comiconlinefree.net/batman-2016/issue-20/full

Hi Greg,

First off, I'd like to say Gargoyles was a big part of my childhood, and still is to this day. The mature content for a younger audience, cast of Star Trek alumni, and Shakespearean aspect truly got me interested in Shakespeare from a young age. My question is as follows.

1) I'm an avid storyteller in the midst of writing his first novel. My story has many different races from many different mythologies. I'd like to include Gargoyles in my story but I don't want to copy you. I have too much respect and appreciation for your creation and its characters. My question is it OK to have gargoyles in my story?

2) Also have them come alive? Or living period?

3) Not to ask your process, everyone's different but what would you recommend I do so not to copy you but have them be warriors, rulers, politicians, scholars, etc.? A living race of gargoyles in the middle is part of my overall story.

Let me know and look forward to hearing from you.

Brian

Hola Greg, sorry if this questions are too annoying or large

1) In the war world episode I get that Dick needed to remain behind to coordinate the squads but how come Aquaman remained behind? Even if you go by the "Aquaman sucks outside water" line of thought I'm sure he would've been more useful than say, Mal.

2) I get the impression that M'gann has soft spot for young boys like Garfield, Cullen and maybe at some point Dick. Is it because they remind her of her past bond with M'comm? Could she eventually view little Johnny on a simmilar light

2.5) How would you say was M'ree's relationship with her a'ashenn younger siblings as a child?

3) As I understand the martian's super strenght comes from channeling their telekinesis inwards alongside their density control, and I get the impression that J'onn is the most physically powerful living martian. Does that mean his telekinetic abilities are equally powerful? (I think it would make sense given how M'comm's specialty seems to be shape shifting while M'gann's is telepathy)

4) Did M'comm at some point like Earth tv? It would explain his penchant for earthling snark (or are those just universal)

5) I get that they're technically equals but when Barry and Billy were transporting bad guys to prison it gave me some of the same vibes as the other sidekicks with their proteges. Considering that Billy never had a mentor of his own, does he see the other leaguers as such? Is Barry specially tight with him due to reminding him of Wally?

6) Is Conner attracted to M'gann's martian form? Because I think it would make sense given how she doesn't look that weird compared to the cadmus genomorphs that basically raised him.

7) How would you describe Klarion's relationship with Vandal? His "best friend's dad" (ergo something of an uncle), perhaps?

8) Could a martian get pregnant with another race?

9) Could you tell me which of younger heroes (say of the generation introduced since second season) are currently attending college? If so would it be a spoiler to ask about their majors?

#4. Any and all children of Zeus' siblings are Cassie's paternal cousins.

#5. Cronus and Rhea is Cassie's paternal grandparents, and Ouranos and Gaea are Cassie's paternal great-grandparents.

#6. As the daughter of Zeus, Cassie could theoretically be more powerful than Wonder Woman, Troia, and all the other Amazons in Themyscira; assuming Cassie ever utilizes her full power.

#7. When Cassie learned of her paternal heritage, her initial reaction could only be described as "mind-blown."

Mr. Weisman,

To clarify as to why I've been asking you certain questions (such as the full names of the Earth-16 characters, and paternal and maternal relationships of certain characters in the Earth-16 universe, for example), it is because I've been trying to make comparisons between the Earth-16 versions of characters and their mainstream DC Comics counterparts, and I try to see what they have in common. I usually look into the DC Database Wiki when I make comparisons, but most the mainstream versions of the DC Comics characters on the Wiki are between two sets of character pages; identified as New Earth and Prime Earth in parenthesis after their real names. Character pages with New Earth refer to those histories prior to the massive continuity changes which are a result of the 2011 DC Comics comic book event, "Flashpoint." Character pages with Prime Earth refer tho those histories after Flashpoint from 2011 onwards; even then, further events like DC Rebirth and Infinite Frontier have changed continuity in the mainstream DC Universe and making it similar to what it was prior to "Flashpoint."

So like I said before, the whole point of me asking those specific questions is because I was making comparisons and was trying to find what the characters from BOTH the mainstream DC Comics universe and the Earth-16 universe have in common. But it has been extremely difficult because some things end up being spoiler territory (Jason Todd and the Red-Hooded Ninja, for example) and some things you seem to absolutely refuse to commit to (Bette Kane's full name and exact nature of her relationship to the rest of the Kane family, for example). I mean, if there are certain things about the characters that are TRUE in BOTH the mainstream DC Comics universe AND the Earth-16 universe (full names, specific events/circumstances, familial relationships, etc.), why can't we have direct answers to certain questions from you if they are most likely true?

Mr. Weisman,

In the comics, Bette Kane and Kate Kane were revealed to be cousins after the events of the 2005-2006 comic book storyline, "Infinite Crisis." However, the Young Justice Wiki establishes that Kate and Bette have an unknown relation to each other. As such, if they are not paternal cousins (considering that they share the same last name; suggesting their respective fathers are brothers) like in the comics, then what is the exact nature of their relationship to each other?

PS. Despite your inability to commit to any information regarding Bette, I am of the personal belief that Kate and Bette are indeed paternal cousins. In the Earth-16 universe, Kate was born in 1991, and Bette was born in 1995; as such, that's only about a four-year difference between them. I'm also imagine that, as such, Bette was pretty close to Kate and most likely looked up to her and spent time with her; like in the comics.

For the team, Alpha Squad, Beta Squad, Gamma Squad, etc is pretty self-explanatory. I know the Outsiders have animal-themed names for the squads (Raptor Squad, Gorilla Squad, Mongoose Squad), but I have some questions about the names:

1) Do these squads have rankings like the team squads do? Or are the names based on their function (“Raptor” for the group doing espionage high in the sky, “Gorilla” for guerilla warfare/all-out attack, “Mongoose” for…I don’t know)
2) If my first question is correct then what does “Mongoose” mean in this context?
3) Is it correct to assume that the names are inspired by Beast Boy when he was the leader of the Outsiders?
4) Does the JL have squad names as well?

Thank you! Hoping to see more YJ in the near future!

Hi Greg,

Just seven questions. Okay, if they aren't all answered and apologies if you've answered them before.

1) I know you're not really confirming Designations anymore but judging from how the B designations were handed out (and you said in the past that the Outsiders used B designations until they were given the D post-Season 3) does B-34 belong to El Dorado/Eduardo Dorado Jr. and B-35 to Cyborg?

2) Did the families of the Justice League and the associates end up with A designations post-Season 2, judging from Lian (A-28) and Amistad (A-29) getting them?

3) Will we ever see Freddy Freeman/Lieutenant Marvel? If not, is it possible to know what he's up to these days with Billy and Mary (until she joined Granny Goodness)?

4) Did Tim Drake/Robin and Cassie Sandsmark/Wonder Girl break up over the events of Season 3 or did they just break up and feel better as friends?

5) Was the birth of Damian and whatever is going on with the Red Hooded Ninja and his connection to Jason Todd (either the resurrected Jason or a clone, either/or I await that story with interest) a factor into Bruce's behaviour and decision to create the Anti-Light operation? If anything, I see it being personal for Bruce to what the Light did to not just the Justice League but presumably to his own family.

5) Is Kyle Rayner active as a Green Lantern? And is Tai Pham a part of the Earth-16 universe? I was hoping for a team-up between him and the SuperSons before they awkwardly in my opinion aged up Jon Kent.

6) Are the E designations in relation to the Justice League reserve discussed by members in Season 4?

7) How close are Tim and Stephanie as of Season 4? Friends or colleagues or perhaps starting to become more? Also, did he recruit her and train her before she did something stupid?

#1. Between the events of "Young Justice: Phantoms" and "Young Justice: Targets," did Superboy attended at least one mandatory therapy session with Black Canary in order to discuss his post-Phantom Zone mental state and to determine whether or not he was ready to rejoin the Outsiders (which he obviously did)?

#2. If we ever see Match again in a future season of "Young Justice," is his voice likely going to become more distorted; given his current mutated/deformed-looking condition?

#3. Lian Nguyen-Harper addresses Oliver Queen as "Uncle Ollie." Does she addresses Dinah Lance as "Aunt Dinah," assuming Lian knows abut Oliver's and Dinah's relaitonship?

If the Earth-16 version of Superman had been sent to New Genesis instead of Earth, what kind of person would he have grown up into, and what would have been his role in New Genesisian society? Also, would he have likely gained different Kryptonian powers under New Genesis' sun (assuming that each yellow sun in every solar system in the Earth-16 universe works differently)?

True or False in the Earth-16 Universe?

Kryptonians are vulnerable to magic because their powers occurred as a result of a natural phenomenon (under a yellow sun), rather than anything supernatural. This means that magic affects them the same way it affects anyone else; they'd be just as vulnerable to it as normal humans are.

In the issue #5 of the seven-issue limited series, "Flashpoint Beyond," the Joker's real name was revealed as Jack Oswald White. In that issue, the Flashpoint version of Martha Wayne (who is that universe's version of the Joker) learned this information from Psycho-Pirate (Roger Hayden) before she killed him; she wanted to know about the differences between the Flashpoint universe and the mainstream DC Comics universe. With this major revelation about the Joker's true identity in the comics, does that now mean that Jack Oswald White is also the real name of the Earth-16 version of the Joker as well?

Mr. Weisman,

Using the link provided to you below, and looking at the "Kane Family Tree" diagram on that page, I would like you to please answer the following questions for me in regards to the Earth-16 version of the Kane Family in comparison to the version from the mainstream DC Comics universe.

https://dc.fandom.com/wiki/Kane_Family

#1. In the generation of the Kane family consisting of Martha and her four brothers (Nathan, Phillip, Jacob, and Bette Kane's as-of-yet unnamed father), what is the order of oldest to youngest sibling in the Earth-16 universe?

#2. What are the names of Bette Kane's parents in the Earth-16 universe; despite the fact they have not yet been named in the mainstream DC Comics universe?

#3. In your responses to previous postings regarding Bette Kane, it is only known that she has an unknown relation with both Martha Wayne and Kate Kane, and you do not seem to want to commit to anything beyond that. HOWEVER, if her place in the Kane family tree is the same as in the mainstream DC Comics universe, then that should mean that all her relationships with her other Kane family members outside of her own parents would be considered PATERNAL, correct?

#4. Even though he is not listed in the Kane family tree, is the Earth-16 version of Damian (son of Bruce Wayne and Talia al Ghul) considered to be the PATERNAL FIRST COUSIN, ONCE REMOVED of Kate Kane and Beth Kane (Kate's twin sister, and Jacob Kane's other daughter), and the PATERNAL FIRST COUSIN of Bette Kane? If not, then what are the three women's correct relationships with Damian in the Earth-16 universe?

(And have taken it upon themselves to rehab the red hood(ed) ninja.)

What motivated this drastic change in lifestyle? Damian? Ra's getting saved by Artemis? A mix? Spoilers?

The point of my previous posting to you was because I am curious as to how much the Earth-16 version of Bette Kane has in common with her mainstream DC Comics counterpart; from both her pre-Flashpoint (New Earth) and post-Flashpoint (Prime Earth) versions of herself. Essentially, I was simply trying to understand her place in the Kane family tree and her exact relationships to the rest of the members of her family. I mean, you have previously mentioned that she is related to Martha Wayne and Kate Kane, but what about Bruce Wayne and his son, Damian?

Arc 4 review! (Kaldur's story, so episodes 14-18 I think)

So I LOVE this arc. I love the Atlantean lore, I love the storytelling, I love the characterization and I love the way time is used.

I've always loved this version of Kaldur and Atlantis. I like it so much that when I rewatched Justice League (and Unlimited) this year, I liked their version of Atlantis & Aquaman so much solely because of how well presented they were in *this* show. Maybe that sounds weird, but it's true.

So this story to me, more than anything despite being "Kaldur's arc" is really a story about Atlantis. Kaldur is the pivotal character, the POV character, the hero who (kind of) saves the day, but it's really a story about the fate of Atlantis, and who should rule it. It's also, forgive me for putting it this way, but it "makes up for" the sort off-handed way Ocean Master got dealt with in season 3. In a really cool way. It wasn't really necessary, but I like it.

I love the way time is used in this arc. The fact that we start before the start point of arc 3, but then we cut to a few weeks later halfway through this arc is really cool. I also really love the mystery of the Return of Ocean Master. I cannot remember what I thought at the time, I don't know if I put much thought into it, and really only a clone is what makes sense. Well, I guess there're other things that make sense, especially since the Light transplanted the real Orm's brain into a new cloned body. So I suppose the sky's the limit on what the light is capable of.

I suppose one could think it a cheat, a way to bring back a character. But firstly, Orm's death wasn't like a super impactful thing that I feel like it undermines some important emotional moment. I think it only makes the Light seem more devious, that not only would they have their enforcer behead Orm, but they'd keep his brain around to use later for their own ends. So I don't think it's a cheat.

I really do like the way the show will find new ways to use old concepts. So the Light making new clones to develop even more insidious plans than it did before.

The Orm clone was a lot of fun too, and I really liked all the scenes between him and Orin. In fact, I LOVED all the Orin scenes in this arc in general. Orin sort of working out all of his issues with his brother, through his clone and giving clone-Orm a chance to have a different fate. I also like the way the Arion stuff from arc 3 (which seemed interesting but a bit superfluous at the time) and really uses it well here. The scene with the Tiara could be seen as a bit of a cliche, ala the Nazis opening the arc of the covenant, or really any story where an arrogant mortal man abuses the power of god, but it's such a triumphant moment I really don't care.

David Kaye does a really good job making Arion and Vandall sound like different people. I really get a strong sense of who Arion was in general.

The only REAL complaint I have about the arc is the lack of Mera. And that's not because I love Mera and think she needs to be more important, but just because the storytelling and the plot are really built around Mera. And in the end while making her Queen is both logical (i.e. it makes both her father and her husband happy) and is narratively satisfying with the prophecy angle, to a degree I wish we got more of a sense of what *she* thinks is going on, but she's really just a mouth piece for a prophecy, which I find less satisfying than I would like. It didn't hurt the story or the storytelling, and certainly Mera comes across as competent and heroic through out the story; but that's my minor quibble for the episode. I would have liked to have seen more of her perspective.

Kaldur's arc, which is something I think a lot of people kind of took umbrage with; I'm honestly totally fine with. Not wowed by it, but it's fine. It's honestly not really that important to the story because ultimately as I said, it's a story about *Atlantis*. And I've never really understood what it would add for Kaldur to have some lesson, or some theme, or have some transformation. Kaldur's whole thing is that he's *steady*. He's reliable, he's a good leader, he's a good mentor, he approaches problems and situations logically. By the end of this story, he's just worn out, he's just been working too hard and everyone is telling him to take it easy.

It's fine. I think "he's just *too stoic and capable*" is kind of a weird conflict to give a character because I think it's a tough thing to make relatable or to provide some dramatic tension. Kaldur really isn't showing any signs of fraying until the story's over, when he has his break down. And that's tragic and heartbreaking, but it comes a bit late in the arc to be emotionally effective I think. Again, I don't think this detracts from the story, but it feels like the sort of thing that maybe would have been more dramatically effective at the midpoint of the story. I'm not sure. I think it might have worked better, but I also don't think it's something Kaldur needs.

I think it's totally fine that Kaldur is just consistent and reliable. Seeing a bit of humanity and weakness at the end was fine too. I really don't see the problem with any of this. Like yeah, if I was breaking the story down using Saving the Cat or something I might say it's a weak arc for your main character, but I've really never bought into the idea that the character who transforms or changes or goes through the mud has to be your *main* character necessarily. It's okay for your lead to be steady, and for *another* character to go through that dramatic transition.

In this case I think it's Atlantis at large, and to an extent Orin/Arthur who really go through that transition. And it's super effective, as I mentioned above I *love* all the Orin scenes in this arc. I love the bit where the Sharks are circling like his muscle. I loved seeing Orin as a detective. It's all just really, really cool.

I really liked the epilogue with Vandal and Dr. Fate too. This is a sort of story archetype I'm seeing more and more (at least it was a big part of Toy Story 4 of all things --...and Mad Men). Where a male character who is used to being the decider discovers that things are kind of moving on from him, that the world maybe doesn't need him to take risks and make big decisions for it. I like it a lot, and I think it's very well placed here. And very thematic too, with Orin's arc in the story. Even Kaldur's arc really.

I think that's everything, I usually forget something I wanted to mention but I think that's everything.

So did the team and justice league give him two cure chips to ensure no possibility of mind control despite only having one would do the trick simply out of paranoia. Can you explain this, I am having a little doubt whether to think of Captain Marvel and Billy as the same physical body or is it more the magical augmentation will also have the control chip in it even after the form disappears. Basically is the health and physical state of Billy Batson(fractures, mind control or just the flu) influence his Captain Marvel form(Captain Marvel having a fracture for instance) and vica versa.

Arc 3 "Zatanna" ramble

So, this arc is strange to me. In a good way. Lately I've sort of been trying to think of arcs and stories in terms of a core dramatic question. What is the story asking? And what is the answer? Normally to my observation the question is usually asked by the end of the halfway mark of the story, with the answer coming at the end. In some form or another.

This arc is strange because it answers the question before it's even really been properly asked.

So in effect, this story is a Dr. Fate story I think. That was the strongest element to me, that was the most important part, it was certainly the one I actively cared about the most (it's really an arc that's been going on since near the beginning of season 1). The dramatic question as such, is "are Zatanna's students worthy to take up the mantle of Dr. Fate?". But that question isn't *really* asked until the very end of the story after they've dealt with Child. And by that point the question has already, very clearly I'd say, been answered. They are. (except for Mary)

So I really like that element of the story structure, that it sort of works in reverse. Really different.

The Chaos Lord stuff just isn't really my thing, I think is what it comes down to. I like the primordial element, I like the reinterpretation of Klarion, but the body horror and the smug ageless child thing isn't my taste. (It's possible Black Lagoon ruined it for me, though.) But I do really like the mythic elements here, the need for a familiar, the way different familiars manifest. I even sort of like the idea of the Lords of Order and Chaos holding court (sometimes with one another). And I think it's cool that Vandal Savage sort of solved the problem through diplomacy. Though I think his argument was a bit obvious (though I guess it wasn't to the Lords of Chaos).

The mindscape stuff in the middle of the arc was a bit odd to me. Mindscapes have always been a Weisman classic, so I wasn't particularly surprised to see them here. These were pretty effective and at times creepy, but I kind of wish we'd gotten this information in a more traditional way. I think the main thing that threw me off here was the placement of them. They sort of come in the middle of the action, when things are extremely desperate, It's an odd time to take a break to do some character development. In fact the whole pattern of the arc is odd to me. It's almost constant rising of stakes, and then when things are at their most intense, we sort of wander off to focus on some down time. Either meeting Jason Blood, or Dr. Fate, or the stuff with Klarion and the bus.

Then there was the stuff with Zatara. Now, I think partly the purpose of the stuff with Zatara, or my impression of it was to make Zatara less of a prop. Zatara potentially could be nothing more than an objective for Zatanna. She's got to rescue her nice, but unremarkable father from despotic forces. I think that's a good intention, but again came in at an odd time in the story. It also sort of muddled the through line of the storytelling in a way I wasn't the biggest fan of.

Because ultimately, while I think I'd argue it is a Zatanna, Dr. Fate Zatara story, I'm not sure it's important to really understand Zatara beyond the fact that Zatanna cares about him. And I don't really begrudge the storytelling that indulgence, I'm not an essentialist the way some people are, but I just think this story already has so many characters and subplots going on it winds up just being another layer to contextualize and care about and the show is already asking a lot. It didn't need to work this hard to make me care about Zatara, or to explain Zatara. I already care about Zatara and Zatanna.

The religious elements too, I think I'm not sure what to think of. I'm not a religious person, and Christianity in particular makes me very uncomfortable. So the shot of Nabu and Zatara facing off with an Ankh and a cross behind them made me chuckle a bit. Just because it reminded me of a narmy 70s comic cover (was it based on a cover actually?). But I think religion is a *very* big topic, and it's hard to kind of compartmentalize in this sort of story. Like, for me, what's important about Khalid's story isn't his relationship with magic, or with god, but his relationship with his mother. Which there isn't time or space to explore because of how ambitious this arc is. So it kind of just gets boiled down to him feeling pressure to choose something, and him deciding he doesn't have to choose. And I wish we got more context for that. Though there's an obvious irony in him being pressured into becoming a doctor and ending up as doctor fate, obviously. I'm less enamored with that now a few months later than I was when I watched it, but I still appreciate it.

One other thing I wanna comment on, because I've seen this criticism that this isn't really Zatanna's story. Which I suppose is true. I've seen this idea put forth by a lot of youtubes and film critic-type people, the idea of sort of the want/need and the core narrative of a character. Like because Zatanna doesn't transform, or learn something, or realize an unrealized need it's not her story. She knows what she wants at the beginning of the arc, and she knows how she wants to get it. And things just kind of... fall into place after that and she gets what she wants, the story wouldn't really have been that different if Zatanna had just knocked on Dr. Fate's door and had a conversation with him about cycling hosts. Which means perhaps the story is less dynamic and connected than it could be, but I don't think that's a *problem* necessarily.

Because ultimately the transformation is Dr. Fate's. This is a story about Dr. Fate. And I think that's good. Your P.O.V. character or protagonist doesn't necessarily need to be the character to whom things are happening.

It's interesting because I think this is also *very* reflected in Kaldur's arc.

I've rewritten this like 4 times to try and make it sound as constructive and not negative as possible, and I think I failed miserably at that, but there *is* a lot I liked about this arc. It's generally stuff that's just... always good, though. The characters are well drawn out, the conflicts are endearing, the story's creative, the global scope was impressive. It wasn't petty, it felt like everything was consequential. I still love this show's take on doctor fate *a lot*. I liked that we got a resolution to the Dr. Fate arc that started so many years ago.

So... yeah, I liked it. The Kaldur arc was my favourite of the season, though, so I'm looking forward to writing that ramble.

Mr. Weisman,

Going through the "Unanswered Questions," I noticed that there are a few people who are getting things mixed up with the possible relationships between Bruce Wayne and his other family members in the Kane family tree in Earth-16 universe. To settle the matter once and for all, can you please confirm if the following information below is correct?

#1. From Bruce Wayne's point of view, his maternal cousins are Kate Kane, Beth Kane, and Bette Kane. His maternal uncles would therefore be Jacob Kane (Kate's and Beth's father) and Bette's unnamed father.

#2. From Kate Kane's and Beth Kane's point of view, their paternal cousins are Bruce Wayne and Bette Kane. Their paternal aunt would therefore be Martha Wayne (Bruce's mother), and their paternal uncle would therefore be Bette's unnamed father.

#3. From Bette Kane's point of view, her paternal cousins are Kate Kane, Beth Kane, and Bruce Wayne. Her paternal aunt would therefore be Martha Wayne (Bruce's mother), and her paternal uncle would therefore be Jacob Kane (Kate's and Beth's father).

Hi, Greg. I'm from Brazil, so, sorry for any misspelling (English is still my second language and i speak, listen and read more than I write). A few questions after watching season 4 of Young Justice:
1- Tim and Steph looked very cudly on the wedding scene. Was that an indication that they're together now?
2- If Ollie is broke since season 1, how did he still used all those trick arrows? The League? Bruce? I'm considering its something expensive and that i can't just buy on a regular sporting goods shop
3- I remember Rocket talking about Orion as Darkseid's child. Since there wasn't any (at least seen) conflict between the heroes and Darkseid, do they know about him because of the conflict at the orphanage? They've been doing some digging? Reports from the GL Corps? I assume they know everything about Granny Goodness, at least, and there was that conflict in Season 1 involving Desaad, but i could be forgetting something and don't believe any Darkseid loyalist would rat on him

Those were the questions. Thank u for your time. Hoping for a season 5 and, if not, that whatever new product you develop be as awesome as spectacular spidey, gargoyles and YJ (just need to finish gargoyles on Disney Plus)

1. In the House of El family tree, Kal-El and Kara Zor-El would be PATERNAL cousins because their respective fathers, Jor-El and Zor-El, are brothers. However, what would be Kara's exact relationship with both Kon-El and Johnny Kent; even though they are also likely PATERNAL?

2. In the Kane family tree, Bruce Wayne would the MATERNAL cousin of Kate Kane and Bette Kane; while Kate Kane and Bette Kane would be the PATERNAL cousins of Bruce Wayne. Both cases are because Bruce's mother, Kate's father, and Bette's father are siblings. However, what would be Kate's and Bette's exact relationship with Bruce's and Talia's son, Damian?

PS. I understand if you might get put off with questions associated with PATERNAL and MATERNAL relationships, but I'm just trying to make sure of the accuracy of such familial relationships in the Earth-16 universe; in comparison to the character's counterparts in the mainstream DC Universe (New Earth/Prime Earth).

Mr. Weisman,

I have read on the internet that you also want a fifth season of "Young Justice" and you are encouraging the fans to rally in order to save the show. However, what if that is NOT enough? Let me give you two examples of similar situations:

Example #1: Ruby Rose, who portrayed Kate Kane in the now-canceled CW TV series, "Batwoman," left the show after its first season. Caroline Dries, the showrunner, initially wanted to recast the character, but then she decided NOT to after she received some advice from Greg Berlanti. Fans demanded that Kate Kane be recasted, and then they became upset when Kate Kane was replaced by an original character named Ryan Wilder. This action caused Kate Kane fans to believe that Caroline Dries was disrespecting the Batwoman source material. Kate Kane would eventually revealed to be recast midway through the show's second season, but by the end of the second season finale, she left again; much to the disappointment of the Kate Kane fans. Essentially, had Caroline Dries listened to the fans and recast Kate Kane right away (as opposed to replacing her with an original character), the show would not have been so terrible and would not have ended up being canceled after its third season.

Example #2. After Chadwick Boseman died in 2020, Kevin Feige announced that he would NOT recast T'Challa in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Those who wanted the character recast started an online petition which gathered a very large number of signatures. However, when the first trailer and the movie synopsis for "Black Panther: Wakanda Forever" came out during Comic-Con 2022, it was revealed that T'Challa was permanently killed off. I have seen some very angry reactions on Twitter as a result of this. The idea of T'Challa being killed off in the MCU is utterly ridiculous/disgraceful because it robs us of watching his further character development and the relationships/connections that he made with the other characters in the MCU.

The point of me addressing these examples to you is to clearly show that ever since COVID-19 hit the United States, I have observed that people in the movie and television industries do NOT appear to listen to the comic book fans at all; since they cannot go outside and publicly protest on things such as this. These days, such people appear to stick by their decisions and don't seem to care what other people think. As such, I fear that HBO Max will be just the same, and "Young Justice" will likely be officially canceled; despite the efforts of the fans.

Mr. Weisman,

So I'm hearing that HBO Max NOT having any plans for a fifth season of "Young Justice does NOT necessary means that the show has been canceled. However, in my honest opinion, I feel that this is HBO Max's cowardly attempt to refuse to admit the truth about the show's cancellation. If true, it would not be the first time something like this has happened. Back in 2020, The CW did a backdoor pilot for "Green Arrow and the Canaries," which was supposed to be a spin-off of "Arrow." During that year, I occasionally read on the internet that a decision was still being made. Then, in January 2021, it was announced that "Green Arrow and the Canaries" was not picked up by the CW. It was later revealed that month that the spin-off was decided not to be picked up the moment that COVID-19 hit the United States. Essentially, The CW had LIED to its viewers and hid the truth for a full year. So, if HBO Max won't admit the truth that "Young Justice" is cancelled, it probably won't end up well for the fanbase if the truth ultimately comes out months or a year later, and that would make HBO Max just as bad as The CW. I truly hope you have a contingency plan to save "Young Justice" if this ends up being true.

I think it would be badass but if not I would still like to see the cartoon show start back up I just think with Disney doing all these live action movies to add Gargoyles to that would be amazing and do really well it has a great story amazing characters who wouldn’t want to see that come to life in a major motion picture! I know I would only if it was done right a kept the same storyline start off in Middle Ages tell their story there then bring them to the city I’ve been thinking about it a lot lol but just wanted to get your thoughts since you created it!

Hi Greg!

1) Does Green Lantern Forager have a designation, since she was on the Watchtower in "Zenith and Abyss"?
2) Does the Kaizer-Thrall/Danny Chase have a designation, since he was on the Watchtower in "Zenith and Abyss"? He is sentient (and this was known to GL Forager before she brought him to the Watchtower) so I wonder whether he was given a designation when he arrived on the Watchtower, despite appearing to be a floating box to those who did not know him.
3) If Green Lantern Forager and/or Kaizer Thrall/Danny Chase were given designations on this occasion, what are their designations (if you would not mind revealing them, please)? We know that the next designations were A-50 (J'emm J'axx) and A-51 (Phantom Girl), so it seems likely that one or both of the preceding designations (A-48 and A-49) went to GL Forager and/or KT/Danny Chase if they were given Zeta access. Of course, I can't be sure of this since access may have been overriden for them as it was for Cheshire in "Artemis Through the Looking Glass". But I thought this might be worth asking about! :)

1) Why did no one think to put Arsenal in therapy during Young Justice Season 2? In one of the shows that averts the "There Are No Therapists" trope, it's kind of foolish for them to let him work on the Team and kick him off when he can't cope when he clearly needs psychiatric help. If a guy attempts suicide, you don't chew him out for risking his teammates, you ship him off to Black Canary until he gets a clean bill of mental health and I'm sure Black Canary could've helped Arsenal perfectly (Especially after seeing how she helped Garfield during season 4 in the episode "Forbidden Secrets of Civilizations Past!") and let's be clear that deep down Arsenal still had good in him and that he was never a lost cause who's beyond redemption like that Pure Evil Martian low-life Ma'alefa'ak/M'comm M'orzz and maybe Geo-Force/Brion Markov.

2) While he's still hot-blooded, he seems to have mellowed out a lot during the two-year time skip between Young Justice Seasons 2 and 3. Does that mean Arsenal is now a Jerk with a Heart of Gold (A jerkish character who is deep down a good or at least decent person)?

Out of all the worlds in the Earth-16 universe that had a yellow sun in their solar systems, why did Jor-El and Lara specifically sent Kal-El to Earth? I mean, did Jor-El visited Earth before during his youth? Or was it because information via Kryptonian probes sent into space showed that humans were the only race in the universe that were visually identical to Kryptonians (in terms of physical appearances, skin color, etc.)?

Hi, Greg!

I wanted to ask for a little more detail on how the Legionnaires were able to be rescued? I know Brainy said there was a 99.84% chance the timeline was substantially restored, if things were changed AT ALL (Ursa getting away, Vandal getting all the Kryptonians, etc), wouldn't that mean that even if they went back to their era it wouldn't be exactly like they remember? That there would be other versions of them in this new timeline? I know I might be needlessly overthinking, and I'm sorry if this is a bother, but I just wanted to ask for clarification on how it all works since the time travel was more involved in Phantoms than Invasion.

Hi Greg, my question’s in relation to Young Justice S4. It’s not even a plot relevant question, more of a silly one in regards to the finale. As a wrestling fan, I wanna know: In canon, how did Nightwing learn about blade jobs?

1) Stumbled across it on whatever version of YouTube they have on Earth 16?

2) Went through a wrestling phase?

3) Haly’s Circus held a show in a carnival with wrestlers and Dick learned a few of their secrets by watching?

4) None of the above?

Whatever the answer is, thank you for your time. Love this show SO much, thank you and everyone who helped make it.

Hi again, Greg! :)

1) In "Depths", La'gaan says to Artemis, "I relish this opportunity to finally fight beside you, archer". Is there an in-universe reason for the fact that Lagoon Boy joined the Team in Team Year Four and Artemis left in Team Year Five but they didn't fight alongside one another in all that time? If so, what's the reason/what happened?

2) The Doom Patrol died in Team Year Five and Beast Boy is on the Team in February of Team Year Five (as he's present in Legacy). It seems a little bit doubtful that Gar would join the Team within a month or so of the Doom Patrol's demise, so I wonder: did Gar join the Team (if only part-time basis) while Elastigirl, Negative Woman and Chief were still alive? After all, you've said that Gar didn't go on every Doom Patrol mission, so it seems plausible that there could have been a time when he was a member of BOTH teams, if only perhaps on a part-time basis. Is this what happened?

3) I'm really curious about the fact that Mary Bromfield abused her powers (by spending too much time as Sergeant Marvel) and M'gann M'orzz was abusing her own telepathic powers by the time of Team Year Six. Possible spoiler request here, but is there a connection between what happened to these two girls in terms of how they abused their respective powers during the five-year gap?

1. I’m a bit confused about the YJ version of Ultra-Humanite.

Or was he born as a human female who transferred his brain to a gorilla? I don’t think the tie-in comics confirm or refute either scenario.
2. Why didn’t he just stay human? I don’t really see any pros in becoming a gorilla.

Mr. Weisman,

In the current iteration of the DC Comics universe, Hippolyta's sisters are Antiope, Atalanta, and Astarte. Is this true in the Earth-16 universe as well? Also, amongst the sisters, what is the order from oldest to youngest? Finally, in the current iteration of the DC Comics universe, their mother's name was Alcippe (alternatively known as Antiope when she founded the tribe of the Amazons of Bana-Mighdall) and their aunt's name was Atalanta. Is this also true in the Earth-16 universe as well?

This Hafiz guy who posts a lot in the Ask Greg queue seems remarkably dim. The oldest question of his in the queue is in response to an answer Greg gave on April 1st about Jor-El and Lara coming to Earth and becoming the Kent's. Dude, April 1st is April Fools Day in America and it's a day Greg cuts loose and answers questions in a facetious manner. (Fair(on my defense i'm bengali and I don't understand sarcasm))

In his most recent post, he wonders why democracies/constitutional monarchies are portrayed more favorably than absolute monarchies and that Saudi Arabia treats their people better than the US. I know there's universal health care in SA, but it wouldn't do me much good if I was beheaded for witchcraft nearly a quarter into the 21st century. I'd also rather not be sawed up in an embassy for criticizing the ruler of the country. Will that universal health care put me back together? (Saudi follows God's law not some man made nonsense)

It's also tiresome when he quotes scripture and verse to conform with his conservative view of Islam. He should call himself Atatollah Bore-mani. He also seems like a MAGA chud when he complains about wokeness. (Sorry I reject democracy. MAGA people are insane as just like the left. Morality is nonexistent in secularism,)

As much as he enjoys the show, I hope he realizes it's all fiction, like the Koran, and he should stop berating Greg. Hafiz reminds me of the guy who attacked Rushdie today. (If I were to portray jews as greedy thieves and blacks people as thugs would the masses just watch as something fictional for the sake of story or would they boycott my story? I would have to pay for libel. As for Salman Rushdie how is that he can slander peoples belief and publish lies and go unpunished? don't get me wrong I don't condone their behavior. Random Muslims can't resort to vigilantism but at the same time Salman Rushdie shouldn't resort to lie to trick the ignorant masses)
Greg Weisman always will be one of my favorite writers up there with George RR Martin, Mark Twain, and Edgar Allan Poe but that doesn't if he makes a blunder I'm going to idly sit by and let him go scott free especially if he responds to fans and I know he makes retractions

For example, which Justice League members recommended Captain Atom to join the Justice League and why did they specifically chose him? You probably might think that I am thinking about this too deeply, but I'd still like to know anyway.

In the comics, Ice's real name is addressed as "Tora Olafsdotter." However, if her full name is based on the Icelandic naming tradition (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Icelandic_name), then shouldn't her full name actually be properly addressed as "Tora Olafsdottir," thus replacing the "e" with an "i"? The reason I'm asking this question is because I was concerned about the accuracy of Ice's surname and I want to know which version of the surname is correct in the Earth-16 universe.

A few Superboy and Miss Martian Season 2 questions.

1. Why did Superboy choose not to reveal to Nightwing or the Justice League about Miss Martian's abuse of power in season 2? I know it was stated he was hoping his own disapproval would make M'gann see what she was doing was wrong, but when that didn't work, including their break up and how she tried to erase his memories, I still don't understand why Conner wouldn't say anything?

2. Did he keep quiet because he didn't have solid proof of her abuse of telephay or did he stay quiet because simply because that despite everything, he still clearly loves her?

3. When they were broken up in season 2, wasn't the rest of the Team (mainly their longtime friends) ever curious about why they broke up? It's clear M'gann and Conner kept the true reason a secret, but what did they tell everyone when questioned about why they ended things?

4. Did everyone finally learn what M'gann did to Conner after they got back together. We know that Conner told Gar in the Torch Song comic, but did everyone else ever find out the truth and if so how did they feel after learning how M'gann basically betrayed Conner's trust as well as her actions towards him?

5. Did the rest of the Team ever feel stupid or idiot that they never saw or realize that Miss Martian's abusing of power? How could they have let it go on for so long and not try to stop her or confront about what she was doing! When Artemis saw what she did to Kaldur, she was shocked, upset and very disappointed with M'gann!

Hello, Greg!

Now that ‘Young Justice: Phantoms’ has aired in its entirety, I feel that now is as good a time as any to give my (unprompted and long-winded, but well-deserved) review of the fourth season of what was once my favorite show. I’m going to be honest and fairly blunt: this season was frustrating.

And no, not in a fun way.

I had so, so, so many problems with how you and Brandon broke this season down. Much like how you guys handled Outsiders, this season’s pacing is glaringly bad. It feels even worse this go-around, but I’m gonna guess (or hope, rather) that that’s only because this season’s arc formula forces a bigger emphasis on the pacing within three-to-five episode chunks, which in turn makes the flaws all the more apparent.

Don’t get me wrongâ€"the season wasn’t bad by any means. I know it did consistently well (better than all three of the past seasons, I believe) on the charts and was almost always trending on the HBOMax page. By all accounts, I completely understand why you and the company would see the season as a metaphorical slam-dunk: because it was. And with all the chaos that’s going on right now with the merger between HBOMax and Discovery, with the shelving of that nearly-finished BATGIRL movie, etc. etc., I know it's up in the air if the show is going to get renewed for a fifth season. All I can say is I sincerely hope it does get renewed.

But with all that being said, I do think it needs to be addressed that getting strong numbers on the charts and accepting the praise whilst ignoring and/or arguing away critics (hate-watchers, you called them) does NOT equal high-quality entertainment.

So let’s start from the beginning.

The notion of this arc-like storytelling seemed like such a good idea back when promotion started for the season, and many fansâ€"myself includedâ€"rejoiced when they were told (by you, Brandon, the crew, etc.) that each arc would be focused around an original Team member. Looking back, I really wished you hadn’t gone down this route. The choice (per interviews with you and Brandon) seemed to mostly be a cost-saving measure with regards to being able to reuse backgrounds, locations, voice actors, etc. etc., while also theoretically allowing you guys to explore characters in a more in-depth manner, more so than previous seasons. On paper, it sounds great. Which is why it’s really a shame that the actual end product didn’t seem to meet anyone’s expectations on that front.

Now, I’ve seen your responses to criticisms about how each arc doesn't seem to actually revolve around the character they’ve been promoted as revolving around. Most of these responses seem to be you just digging your heels in further. Which just leaves me (and many others, the so-called vocal minority) to question whether the show you made is the same one that actually aired. Because no, Zatanna’s arc was most definitely not about or revolving around HER. Raquel’s arc book-ended with her, sure, but that giant chunk that made up the entire POINT of the arc itself? The same arc that had her speaking a maximum of, what, five lines an episode? Yeah, none of that was about HER.

That isn’t to say all of them were like this. M’gann and Conner’s arc was all about them, Artemis’ arc was all about her and her relationship with Jade, Kaldur’s arc was an overarching Atlantis plotline, yes, but it was ingrained around Kaldur’s detrimental needing-to-help complex. It should come as no surprise that those three arcs wereâ€"by far and wideâ€"the better of the bunch. Hence, it should also come as no surprise why SO MANY people found Zatanna’s so-called arc disappointing (because no, the main point was not Zatanna’s connection with her father, it was quite literally all about Child’s reign of terror) and Raquel’s arc was nothing but set-up (you could replace her with any other character and nothing about the New Genesis plotline would have changed). The only character I actually understand not being the primary focus of their arc is Dick, and OF COURSE that’s the one character YOU believe actually got shafted in the end.

I’m not saying Dick didn’t get shafted, because he absolutely did. But we’ve had three seasons of Dick content. He isn’t a character whose backstory we know nothing about. Sure, I would have loved to see more of his psyche explored, would have loved to see how his relationship with the Batfamily has grown or diminished since Jason’s death or Barbara’s paralysis. I would have loved to see his relationship with his comatose Uncle Rick be explored more. But he didn’t NEED an in-depth character-driven story.

Zatanna and Raquel DID.

We knew nothing about Zatanna’s home life outside of her father. Yes, the arc expanded on that. But it wasn’t HER arc. We learned her mother died of cancer (which was told to us through the lens of Zatara, not Zatanna); we learned that her family is Catholic (again, through Zatara); we learned she’s known Khalid since childhood (yet AGAIN, through Zatara). And even with all that information, it ultimately amounts to nothing even resembling character development and it certainly doesn’t have anything to do with Zatanna’s actions (or lack thereof, in all honesty) during said-arc. I mean, not once did SHE get to narrate an episode of her own damn arc.

But Phantom Stranger? A character we just met? Sure. Vandal Savage, a villain that already had an entire episode dedicated to him last season? Yeah, why not! Nabu and Zatara seemed to be the only ones that made sense, really, and even then neither were directly about Zatanna herself. And that’s just the narration aspects!

I mean, not ONCE did she use her own wits or magical prowess to try and fight off Child or accomplish anything of importance: the only reason she wasn’t killed right off the bat by Klarion in the first episode was because he got called away, it’s Phantom Stranger that warps her to Roanoke where she does absolutely nothing but watch before Etrigan comes to help, and then it’s Khalid that is the one that revives her after she gets knocked out and nearly drowns. It’s honestly so strange looking back to Artemis’ arcâ€"where you cited the reason for the major change to Oracle’s backstory was because you wanted her to have AGENCYâ€"after this. Where did all that agency go for this arc? Zatanna certainly didn’t have any when she most definitely should have.

You could say that Zatanna did help out in the fourth and fifth episodes (you know, ignoring how she spent the entirety of the third sitting in a chair questioning Nabu’s motives and accomplishing nothing else whilst her students battled their own inner demons), but that’s really not saying much. Having the lead character in an arc be relegated to backup in the final showdown was just... anticlimactic and boring. The one thing this arc did well was set up an amazing villain, only for her to be thwarted by Flaw’s (fairly obvious, Hello Megan!) weakness.

Honestly, I’m kind of amazed how you guys managed to have Zatanna be more helpful in the last episode of Raquel’s arc and literally ALL of Dick’s arc than she was in all (five!) episodes of her own. Amazed and kind of annoyed.

And then there’s Raquel, who might as well be the display image when someone looks up the meaning of “eleventh-hour ranger.” I’m not arguing her (in)significance in the first three seasons, but merely how, as a result of that decision, we as an audience know practically NOTHING about her. We know that she had Amistad shortly before joining the Justice League and we know she was engaged to someone, making her entire character seemingly just that of a mother and wife, which doesn’t exactly define HER. It’s not like she was either of those things when she became a hero, right? So what made her want to become one? Was it Icon? Was it for justice? For fame and glory? These are questions that SHOULD have been addressed already, but weren’t, and so we as an audience are left to assume that they’ll be discussed and/or alluded to within her arc.

Instead, when the time FINALLY comes for us to get to know this badass, beautiful, versatile character on the most basic, fundamental level, we’re greeted with something just a notch below ableism. Huh? I get you guys were trying to showcase how even loving parents can make mistakes, but for THAT to be the first personal/familial trait we witness doesn’t exactly paint her in the most positive light.

Which wouldn’t inherently be the worst thing. It’s a common trope to show that even the good guys have flaws that they must overcome. But you guys did literally nothing with that until the VERY END (and it's not even like that so-called ‘pay-off’ was worth the buildup, anyway), so are we just meant to not like her during the entirety of her arc? And it SERIOUSLY does not help that you guys chose to compare Amistad’s autism to Orion’s violent outbursts in Raquel’s eyes (which then weirdly turned into some sexual tension between the two of them by the end of the season for some reason). So much for those sensitivity readers you kept bringing up whenever someone criticized how well you handled Violet’s faith and/or queerness, amiright?

Speaking of, since this was in Raquel’s arc and said by Raquel herself (one of the few lines she actually had, sadly enough), the scene where everyone kept misgendering Violet was excruciatingly painful. I know you’ve stated that it was an oversight and a mistake and you're not quite sure how it got past all of you (even those top-notch sensitivity readers, too!), but it’s pretty clear why this happened: you making Violet explicitly non-binary was a spur-of-the-moment decision probably brought on by the complaints on how you merely alluded to it in S3 but never really committed, choosing instead to safely fall back onto the standard she/her pronouns for the rest of the season. Kudos for the explicit confirmation here in S4, but this oversight really tells a lot about how you guys see Violet and, as a result, your non-binary audience. I know ofâ€"at leastâ€"a handful of people that stopped watching right then and there, one of whom I know personally, who’d advocated so hard for a S3 back when it was on Netflix and went to all of the conventions and actually met you at a meet-and-greet panel back during the promotion of Outsiders. They were legitimately heartbroken. I understand this was a mistake (one that I am seriously trying to wrap my head around, because surely you had at least one non-binary consultant for this storyline, right?), but that mistake quite literally opened the floodgates and gave all of the homophobic DC fans even more leverage to use against us. That mistake will forever be ingrained in ‘Young Justice’ and it’s just... really disheartening, I’m sorry to say.

Now, moving back to the actual meat of Raquel’s arcâ€"which was apparently meant to be an important meeting regarding the camaraderie between New Genesis, the Green Lantern Corps, and the heroes of Earth. Obviously, that’s not the point of the arc (it’s set-up for Lor-Zod, really), but it did feel extremely convoluted when the actual meeting lasted all of five seconds with a firm ‘no’ from Orion and the GLs. Like, what? THAT’s why Raquel and the others flew across the galaxy? What, a video call wouldn’t suffice? It just seemed like a half-assed attempt to explain Raquel’s involvement, which does nothing but strengthen my statement earlier that you could’ve switched anyone in for Raquel and nothing would’ve changed.

I know sometimes the plot forces the story one way, but to relegate the plot-focused arc onto the least developed character? Really? It just left us with more questions than answers (and no, in this case, that’s NOT a good thing). Why did she become a hero? Does she have any family outside of her son? Where was Icon during all this? Who was Raquel engaged to? Was it Noble, the obvious choice, thus forcing us to question why the hell that was a secret at all? The entire storyline seemed like one big missed opportunity, and the overall structure of it all did not help in the slightest.

It’s not like this is the only arc with a weak story structure, but it’s by far the worst. ‘Encounter Upon the Razor’s Edge’ was probably the worst example of pacing and prioritization I’ve seen in a LONG time and it was honestly laughable. I genuinely have no idea how you thought introducing yet another character (that played NO PART in this season’s storyline) and centering the ENTIRE episode around him (therefore DETRACTING an entire episode from an already existing, supposedly main, undeveloped character) would make sense from a narrative standpoint at all. I understand you guys wanted to pay homage to ‘Green Lantern: The Animated Series’ with the writers, and I get it made a lot of fans happy to see Razor again, but this stunt was an extreme injustice to both Raquel and the overarching plot. It got to the point where I was so frustrated (and bored, too, in all honesty) that I just wanted her so-called arc to end already.

How you are able to look at either of these two arcs and say with confidence that ‘yes, both of these arcs did actually revolve around their leading character’ utterly BAFFLES me. And don’t get me wrong, I certainly don’t expect you to read this and agree with anything I’ve said. I get that you’re proud of this season and you obviously liked what you and Brandon came up with for each of these arcs. But the evidence to support your claims of Zatanna’s and Raquel’s individual presence just isn’t there, making your repetitive dismissals of these criticisms all the more infuriating.

Moving on, I think I should bring up one of the major themes of the season: mental health. I think the concept itself looks good on paperâ€"showcasing how worsening mental health and depression can affect someone and the people around them, particularly with how people RESPOND to it.

But as we discussed with the arc structure, something looking good on paper does not equate with it translating well on-screen. And yet again, I do sincerely get where you’re coming from. Like Raquel’s ingrained ableism, you wanted to showcase how even your loved ones can miss the signsâ€"you wanted your show to be as realistic as possible (as you’ve stated when discussing this very plotline). But this so-called realism doesn’t make sense in this context.

Everyone around Garfield are superheroes, the majority of whom are superhero adults with YEARS of experience under their belt and one of whom is specifically trained in psychology and therapy. Even among his peers, he had Ed, who was a peer counselor and who ALSO has some experience in a formal professional setting. This so-called realism fell flat for a lot of people watching because superheroes would KNOW the signs of depression. They would SEE and RECOGNIZE what was actually happening and would certainly put more emphasis on helping Garfield even if he didn’t necessarily WANT their help.

I just found it extremely convenient for you (and frustrating for the audience) that when some of the Outsiders actually confronted Garfield about blowing off their missions and lazing about, it was Courtney doing the talking instead of Ed who was RIGHT THERE and didn’t say a word. Or how, when Blue Devil noticed something was off with Garfield, or when M’gann, Robotman, Cassie, Jaime, and Virgil had their little intervention, none of them went to Black Canary until nearly the END of the damn season. And low and behold, she got through to him in one therapy session. It was just so extremely convoluted and could have been wrapped up in the first half of the season if you guys hadn’t made the adult superheroes act so inept.

Maybe then the Razor butt-in plot or the Infinitors/Markovia storyline during Dick’s arc wouldn’t have been as jarring and/or pointless and/or detrimental to the other characters because you’d actually have the time to showcase everything you felt the need to showcase.

Or you could have used that extra time to depict other charactersâ€"it sure would have been nice to see how the Outsiders and/or the Flash Family reacted to Bart being missing (we were TOLD Jay was having a hard time with it after he got back from New Genesis), or how being Doctor Fate was affecting Zatanna, Khalid, and Traci’s lives, or how any member of the Batfamily was doing. I don’t know, it just felt like you guys were building up so much potential inner turmoil for certain characters only for you guys to just never go anywhere with it or make the waiting pay off by showing it on-screen.

But that’s more of a problem with your whole premise of the show than anything. ‘Tell rather than show’ seems to be your guys’ writing mantra these days. The amount of exposition spewed at us this season wasn’t as bad as in Outsiders, but that’s really not saying much.

All in all, I do think the season was okay. Certainly better than S3. But it’s still nowhere near what the show once was back in the S1 and S2. Which really is a shame, because some parts of this season were absolutely wonderful. The first two arcs were pretty great (that fight scene in the dark during Artemis’ arc still gets me, holy crap) and I truly adored Kaldur’s arc, which I’ve come to realize was definitely my favorite. Dick’s arc was fine for me because of all the shafted characters, he was the one that made sense to shaft (though WHY not a single member of the Batfamily appeared at all until the wedding is still a mystery to me. Poor Tim will never get a speaking line, will he?). As you’ve read, it was Zatanna and Raquel’s arcs that ruined an otherwise good season for a lot of us. Had the season not been divided into chunks, I feel like their respective roles would have shined more in the long run.

Now, in spite of my tirades above, I genuinely do hope for a fifth season. I may not agree with or like every decision you make, but I think you and Brandon both have got a great show in your hands and I do truly want the best for it. But the criticisms I’ve stated are still strong and honest criticisms and the misgendering mistake you guys made ruined the show for a good chunk of people. So if a fifth season does come to fruition, I really am hoping for and expecting more.

Maybe that makes me entitled or snotty. I know I probably come off sounding like an arse and you probably didn’t like a single word of what I wrote. Hell, that’s even if this post makes it beyond your moderators. If it does, just know that this (albeit frustrated) criticism does genuinely come from a place of love for the show and a desire for it to get better with every passing episode.

Thanks for reading, and I am sorry if this spoils the mood a bit for you. If it does, remember I’m just some anonymous nobody on the Internet with a bit too much time on their hands.

I hope you have a good rest of your day.

1. The al ghuls have NEVER been portrayed as Muslim. They’re not even drawn as Arab 99% of the time, plus Ra’s al Ghul’s origins as a character are rooted in the yellow peril stereotype. So you can’t retroactively claim Talia al Ghul as a Muslim character.
2. Someone asked you if Queen Bee was Muslim years ago and your response was “probably,” indicating that you hadn’t really thought about it - and why would you, religion was never part of this show originally
https://www.s8.org/gargoyles/askgreg/search.php?qid=15649
In the comics, Queen Bee is depicted as white, you guys chose to make her Arab, so there’s no history of her being a Muslim character either. The whole concept of Bialya being a terrorist state in the Middle East is also rooted in racism and Islamophobia, so I don’t know if you really want to claim that either.

There’s nothing wrong with making Muslim characters villains as long as they don’t fall into racial caricatures, but you CANNOT claim those two as Muslim characters to deflect criticism of Halo. It is revisionist history and you know it. Furthermore, it wouldn’t change the fact that Halo is the first and only hijabi, who face their own unique stereotypes in media. If you think just because they’re Arab, that automatically makes them Muslim, that’s a whole other problem.

You messed up by making your first explicitly Muslim character a possessed corpse. Stop making excuses and own up to it.

Really? No blind spot? You’re perfect? You don’t need to do any introspection? You didn’t even attempt to understand why making a Muslim character explicitly religious in a Western show is a completely different thing than making a Christian character religious. Context is clearly not a concept you comprehend. And you totally glossed over my point that none of the main 6 characters never talk about their religion and that religion wasn’t part of the show until you made a Muslim character. But ok. Keep living in denial of your Islamophobic tendencies. You’re going to get a rude awakening if you venture outside of this deluded fandom that thinks you can do no wrong.

1. Has the Earth-16 version of Orphan ever been addressed by the nickname "Cass" like her comic book counterpart is sometimes currently called by?

2. In a response to a previous posting, you refused to confirm whether or not David Cain is the father of the Earth-16 version of Orphan. Please explain why you chose to do this; considering this relationship is clearly TRUE in the mainstream DC Universe; both in the pre-Flashpoint (New Earth) and post-Flashpoint (Prime Earth) versions of the mainstream DC Comics universe.

3. In the current iteration of the mainstream DC Unverse, the reason why Cassandra Cain took up the codename "Orphan" is because her father, David Cain used that codename while working for a warlord/human trafficker known only as "Mother" (as depicted in "Batman & Robin Eternal"). So, I assuming at the very least that the Earth-16 version of Cassandra Cain was likely given this name because Lady Shiva knew the Earth-16 version of David Cain by that codename. Is my assumption correct, or is there a completely different reason why Cassandra Cain was given the codename of "Orphan"?

Apparently you asked why you can’t use non human characters as diversity when there are white non human characters….well the answer is because…POC have been already been DEHUMANIZED in western media for CENTURIES with harmful caricatures…have you ever been outside? Plus, if you only have ONE Arab woman in a cast full of white blondes then it’s not exactly an equal situation, is it? Do you seriously not understand this very basic concept or do you just not care because you know you have an army of loyal stans?

Mr. Weisman,

There are two adjectives to describe anything associated with Apokolips; this being "Apokoliptian" and "Apokoliptan". Are one or both of these adjectives correct in the Earth-16 universe?

i was also curious if Dick, Zatanna and the others shared what they'd found to do with Bart specifically after "Rescue and Search" or if, as Dick put it, trusting Bart on his choice extended to his choice not to tell anyone what he was doing?

Mr. Weisman,

1. The Legion of Super-Heroes revealed in the 2nd half of "Young Justice: Phantoms" that Superboy is destined to do something on May 14th, 2030, that will go down in history and that will eventually inspire the creation of the Legion in the 31st century. As such, my question to you is this: Is that specific date meant to be the end point for the "Young Justice" animated series, or will the series continue beyond that date?

2. The entirety of the "Young Justice" animated series appears to set up Darkseid as the overarching main antagonist. However, in the comics, there are other supervillains in the DC Universe who are just as bad or potentially worse than Darkseid. As such, once Darkseid is ultimately defeated, who is going to step up and take his place as the main antagonist?

Mr. Weisman,

In pre-Flashpoint DC Comics continuity (New Earth), the Justice Society of America has a comic book run that lasted from 2007 to 2011. In the first issue of that run, Superman, Batman and Wonder Woman were trying to convince Flash, Green Lantern and Wildcat to reform the JSA because of their importance in training the next generation of heroes. Batman pointed out in that issue that while the Justice League was a strike force, the Justice Society was a family. Wonder Woman pointed out in that issue that the next generation of heroes needed a moral compass. So my question is this: if the children and/or successors of the original Justice Society members are somewhere out there in the Earth-16 universe, why have they not considered the possibility that a modern-day Justice Society may someday be needed, and why haven't they come together yet? The reason I am asking this question to you is because I strongly feel that it may somehow become extremely important/relevant and may end up being addressed in a future season of Young Justice (for which I assume there will be a very good in-universe explanation), and because, to be quite honest with you, I really/truly do want to see a present-day incarnation of the Earth-16's JSA; even if you might end up thinking otherwise.

Apparently the blurb with the Sportsmaster action figure stated that he was a freelancer who did some work for the League of Shadows. On the one hand, this makes some sense since he did not bow to Ra's in Targets unlike every League assassin we've seen with Ra's. On the other, he seems very closely associated with the League, so I just wanted to confirm.

1) Was Sportsmaster a member of the League of Shadows?
2) If so, when did he leave?
3) Was Huntress a member of the League of Shadows?
4) If so, when did she leave?
5) In Young Justice: Legacy, Sportsmaster has a number of minions dressed similarly to him. Does he generally have a group of his own mercenaries, or are they League of Shadows assassins dressed specially for the occasion, or just something in the game and not canon? Or something else?

Hi! I finally finished Gargoyles on Disney+ since it's the first time show got available in my country and I cried at Xanatos's talk with Elisa, just the fact show ended with main characters living with "big bad" and it felt completely natural, happy ending for all got to me. Xanatos's just the best disney character now.

1) is Xanatos's quest for immortality tied to his deal with Puck/Owen? Since it's at the end of his life, but if he's immortal, he would never have to let him go? Or was his goal always immortality, before Owen?

2) In Gathering Puck suggests that Oberon "Can't you put off the gathering for a few more centuries? I'm sure we'll be happy to report to Avalon by then." Puck doesn't speak in "royal we", or does he here mean himself and Xanatos's family, believing they will succeed in becoming immortal?

Thank you for still keeping this! :D

I like to read the memos you sent to the writers about various Gargoyles episodes and in the memo for "Sanctuary", you told Cary to remove a subplot with Thailog and a paintbrush. Apparently, it appeared twice in the original script. I know it didn't make it into the final product, but I'm wondering what was up with Thailog and his paintbrush?

This is the link to the original memo:

1) Are the people frozen by the Ice Villains like Mr Freeze and Icicle Sr, do they all survive or do some die. For example like the family frozen by Mr Freeze in the first episode do they survive. I ask because the comment that Icicle Jr makes about "Tuppence" to "Tommy" in terror where he says "don't you will shatter her assuming since she is still alive" was difficult(will someone die immediately after being frozen) to understand so can you explain like what internal logic should we use everytime someone is frozen like do the different Ice Villains have different sort of freezing powers, if so can you elaborate on that.
2) Is there a reason for why characters like Icicle Sr, Ice of the justice league don't have pale/bluish grey skin but Icicle Jr, Killer Frost and Mr Freeze do.
3) Are of all the ice powered individuals meta humans, what confuses me is particularly Captain Cold and Mr Freeze using cryokinesis without a gun simply with their hands and they were both also wearing a meta human inhibitor collar yet still both use guns in Independence Day.
4) Is being frozen by any of the Ice villains power the same as being in the cryogenic pods that had once frozen and kept Roy Harper, because in the archives you have mentioned that Icicle Sr looks young for someone having fought Alan Scott because of being on ice, or is it specific to some ice villains like only the metahuman ones can do it or can Captain Cold cryogenically freeze someone.
5) Were any of the Ice Villains like Mr Freeze, Icicle Sr, Captain Cold or Killer Frost consulted to make the cryogenic containment pod or was it a purely Cadmus endeavour.

1. Ed previously wasn’t interested in the “hero life” before he joined the outsiders, but became a hero to inspire other meta-teens. Does he enjoy the life now the same way other characters like Cassie or Bart do, or is it still more of a duty/job to him?
2. Why wasn’t he interested in the hero life (unlike Virgil)?
3. Was the choice to make Ed gay made so he could serve as a love interest for someone else, or was it something that felt like it fit his character? Or a little bit of both?
4. Unrelated question, but if you’re allowed to talk about it, what are some of the pros and cons of developing a show based on an original IP vs developing one based on source material owned by someone else/ a company? Which one do you prefer?

Were you implying that 11 year old Mary was sexually precocious? That spending some of her time as an 18-year-old was causing her to be hyper-sexualized like the girls in that very disturbing Netflix movie, Cuties?

Literally how determined was he to fix his relationship with his father to do that?
Was there a specific event that made him take that decision or was it an accumulation of everything? Was it anger or sadness or something else? Did Ed have an explosive temper before he learned of his father's horrible reaction to his escape?

Hey Greg, it was really cool you introduced new characters and threat in Season 4 in the form of the House of Zod!

I know the characters of Geo-Force, Halo, and Troia for example were always ideas that were considered when the show was created but didn't have a chance to bring in until being able to write Season 3.

1) Was the creative choice of introducing the House of Zod always something you and Brandon wanted to do when you created Young Justice or an idea that developed over time as you created the following seasons?

2) For the secret maxim and the House of Zod chant, would you say the House of Zod created both from their experience in the Phantom Zone or it was always part of their culture as a House?

I have a few questions regarding the timeline changes in the first arc of Season 4:

1) Was there a timeline that existed in which the gene bomb ever went off? (As in M'comm successfully planted the gene-bomb, Lor Zod never tried to lace it with kryptonite, and the Team never discovered the bomb until it was too late?)

2) Could the bomb explosion have been stopped even without Lor Zod's interference?

3) The Legion interfered with past events to help Beast Boy cope with his trauma and save him and Superboy from the sandstorm. Was there an event in which Gar and Superboy were saved from the sandstorm without their aid?

4) Did the destruction of the zeta-tube and Mars-Earth satellite prove to be a small but non-consequential change in the timeline seeing as Martian Manhunter survived the explosion and Prince J'emm & Phantom Girl later communicated and transported themselves to the Watchtower in a later episode (Zenith and Abyss)?

The thing about stereotypes in media is that they’re so engrained that we often don’t even notice it and may unintentionally replicate it in our own work. So if someone is saying that you’ve fallen into one, it’s not an insult against your character it’s just to bring it to your attention. Getting angry and saying that someone warning you against a stereotype is trying to tell you what to do is a weird way to respond.

Arc 2 of YJ ramble:

So I think Artemis's arc is the (very general) consensus for "favourite arc" and I think that has a lot to do with the fact that it's a fairly grounded arc which focuses largely on the The Team (tm) as it exists now, and focuses on a Light scheme, which is very sort of classic and familiar for this show.

One thing I want to mention structurally is how this episode has A, B, C and D plots. But unlike a traditional TV structure where we sort of dip into these plots inbetween one another, all four of these plots are happening at the same time in the same scenes. Let's say the four plots are Artemis/Onyx/Cassanda (Savage, henceforth known as Savage), the Artemis/Cheshire story, then Barbara/Cassandra (Cain, henceforth known as Cain), then Lady Shiva/Cain. All of which are all kind of taking place in the same spaces with the same narrative line. I think this structure is cool, I think it's kinda new, and I really like seeing new things and not just the same structure every time. But I think it was also a bit messy unfortunately. There's a lot of emotional payoffs in this arc, and they work *well*, they were good for sure but I wanted to be blown away by them.

I think it's cool and unique, but I also found it a bit overwhelming because it made it harder to kind of parse things (which for me was a recurring problem this season). It's harder to kind of get at the core or the heart of the story when there's four stories going on at once. Effectively it *feels* like the Cheshire/Artemis stuff should kind of be the core of things, but there's so much going on at once it's kind of hard to be as impacted emotionally. It was interesting to see the tone and presentation of the season 1 scenes contrasted with the season 4 stuff. I'm not sure the additional scenes added much necessarily, but there was some cool stuff to see. It added detail (and stuff like Jade giving Artemis a small piece of their Vietnamese heritage was nice) but I'm not sure if it added meaning? Does that distinction make sense?

I do kinda feel like this story could have been a 3 episode arc maybe, or at least a little tighter, a little more focused. There's a big dramatic battle between Shiva and Cain at the end of episode 3, but that's not really even the stories' climax, and I feel like I've never really had a chance to get to know either of these characters, so while the fight itself was awesome, and I like a lot of the concepts here I wish it had come together in a bigger way. I mentioned this in my arc 1 ramble; where I feel like delineating these stories and making them into more separate full stories somehow might have worked better. We wouldn't be dealing with Onyx, Cheshire, Artemis, Cain and Barbara all in one scene together, and this Cain-Shiva story could have had a bit more breathing room.

That's just my opinion, though. To be clear. I recognize that for sure.

Cheshire in particular, I felt like her characterization wasn't quite as strong here as it has been in past seasons. She's obviously a very damaged person, but she usually doesn't let that show in quite the same way she did here. The scenes are a bit wordier, there's more explanations for things. Which is all very necessary when these storylines are happening in the way they are. I don't wanna sound like I'm just ragging on stuff either, so I will say, I still love Kelly Hu, I love her design, and I loved the way she interacted with the other league assassins (her former team) if anything I wish there was more of that and that was a bigger part of the story. I think that was the main thing I missed with Cheshire here, was the sassiness, she was a little too melancholic for my taste. Still enjoyed the character a lot, though.

One thing I think I maybe missed was why did Barbara take such an interest in Cain/Orphan? Considering the wound she took for the sake of Cain's... soul, basically. It just seemed like a bold move for a girl she doesn't seem to know. I'm smart enough to understand that it's entirely possible Barbara and the league and whoever had a file on Cain, and Barbara felt sorry for her, or felt that she could be something else and that doesn't need to necessarily be spelled out, but it sort of felt like there was something missing there maybe.

I LOVE the new take on the Oracle story, though. Which I've never particularly liked (always seemed too sensational), and I like that Barbara lost her legs doing something heroic in the line of duty, rather than just being another Joker victim. And I really loved the connection between Oracle and Orphan.

Also speaking of the Joker, I thought this characterization was a lot stronger than the one from season 1. The Joker was funnier, but he also seemed more deranged. Bigger energy, which I think is always a better direction to take the Joker in. At the end of the day he is a clown. Leave 'em laughing.

As always the logistical aspects of the plot are *immaculate* and I think the skill with which Greg writes these caper plots is so underappreciated. The detail of Onyx creating confusion which made Savage less suspicious was something I picked up on immediately. (Basically the question goes from being "IS Cassandra Savage a spy?" to "Is Cassandra Savage OR Onyx *the* spy?") And so I felt very smart when Shiva mentioned it later in the arc. The glamour charm aspect was also very cool. I didn't REALLY believe that Cassandra Savage was punished by her father; Vandal is just too practical to make someone less capable. Too wasteful.

Also Artemis's characterization here is cool. I love that she's just got... a boyfriend. A nice guy she met. No star crossed romance, no repressed passion coming out as bickering. He's just a nice guy, and she's not sure she wants her sister to meet him yet. I love the normalcy of it. It's also just nice to see her moving on from Wally.

The whole conclusion on Infinity Island was interesting. Onyx felt a bit out of place just because again there was so much going on, but the themes of tradition, doing better, generational trauma stuff, that was all great.

I've never been too clear on this version of Ra's Al Ghul. Traditionally Ra's is either an environmental extremist, an anti-crime extremist or an anarchist extremist, or all of the above. But none of those seem to really fit this version of Ra's, who worked with the Light, and cooperated with an oppressive dictator and a technocratic businessman (both of whom seem like they SHOULD be ideological opposites to Ra's, but that's hardly a given I suppose, especially given that the Light is aware of the intergalactic community at large).

So I just don't know if I really understand what this version at least of Ra's is all about. He's usually a voice of reason in the big Light scenes. I kinda wish I understood more about him, I suppose, but there is just so much to cover so maybe that's unfair.

But all that is to say, is that what worked for me about this arc works *really* well. It's not necessarily *my* favourite of the season, I think it was really strong and fittingly nostalgic.

For example, sex is part of many people's lives (right ?) but you can talk about it without showing people doing it.

Hey Greg, first off I just wanted to say you and the YJ team kicked it out of the ballpark with phantoms. But I was curious, since Krypton was significantly more technologically advanced than Earth (before its destruction) what with them being interstellar and inventing the phantom zone projector, did the Kryptonians employ a zeta network?
After all Earth was able to create one with significantly less advanced technology and the only feasible in-universe alternative is boom tubes, which are restricted to New Genesis, Apokolips and their allies (since you need a mother/father box for).

Also, don’t you think her being a dead body is a little different than Superman being an alien?

Hello Mr. Weisman
I'm a big fan of the Young Justice show and enjoyed watching the first two seasons of the show.Season 4 was much better than season 3. I'm so glad Miss Martian and Superboy got married. It's nice to see the original team members in the foreground. I'm so glad to see Zatanna and Rocket in particular.
Only the most disturbing thing in Young Justice was that Violet and Harper were together. Like all the other followers, I also find the Violet and Harper relationship wrong in terms of Islam.
But maybe you have heard such a comment before, but I still want to express my opinion. There are those who find the Violet and Brion relationship wrong because although Violet wasn't her choice, she was resurrected in this deceased teenage girl's body and was technically a newborn, just learning about emotions and being human.For Brion, the situation was even worse and traumatic. His sister was kidnapped, his family died, and he was expelled by his twin brother, the king of the country for which he sacrificed everything.Violet and Brion relationship seems rushed and wrong in that respect but in a way I found watching Violet and Brion relationship more real, intimate and romantic and although most people don't respect each other's opinions these days, Brion respects Violet and was really nice. I hope Brion and Violet They get back together like Superboy and Miss Martian.Harper Row is a member of the already known Batman family and it would probably be nice to see her as Bluebird if she came out in season 5 but I didn't like the Harper Row done by Young Justice and frankly, in season 3 episode 18, even though Violet said she had a boyfriend, Harper kissed her and Frankly, this Harper left a bad impression.These days, people change, evolve, so do people's minds so I don't know how people in the world view relationships in general but I don't think you can kiss someone who says they're having an affair and this show rewards Harper by bringing Harper and Violet together and makes cheating seem so normal But cheating is not a good thing if the relationship between Violet and Harper was made to support LGBT, I think there are LGBT relationships in this show already. Violet and Harper's relationship seems very strained.
Although this is an imaginary series, you have made it realistic enough to criticize it, especially by talking about religious issues with this season 4 and making it according to adults with the third season. Of course, it's a matter of preference whether to watch it or not. I'm sorry, Mr. Weisman, but when you put on a show that appeals to everyone, you have to respect people's thoughts and opinions because no matter how much the show has sprung from your imagination and the work of your teammates, the show has to be watched and demanded by people to keep it going.
By the way, English is not my native language. I used translate to write. I apologize if there was a mistake.

Hey Greg, I think it's so cool you voice the characters Lucas Carr and Ultra-Humanite on YJ!

1) Are they among your most favorite/most interesting characters from the DC Universe?

2) As a producer, did you feel you could choose to voice a character and be directly involved in the show?

3) As Lucas Carr, did you want to act as a guide for the heroes and comment on behalf of the fandom sometimes?

4) As Ultra-Humanite, I know his voice sounds a little different from your voice, did you make some adjustments through technology or could you do it yourself?

Mr. Weisman,

I may be out of line by making this suggestion to you, but whatever Season 5 storyline you have planned for Mary Bromfield, I honestly don't think that she should be redeemed so easily by the end of that season, and that she should be shown refusing to take responsibility for whatever wrongs she commits as Black Mary and should instead continue to blame those whom she feels have "wronged/betrayed" her even after she is stopped/defeated. If you do it this way, it would make her situation similar/parallel to that of the Gargoyles characters Demona and Jon Canmore/John Castaway.

I've read an interesting "Cronin theory" about how comic book and TV show writers "compete" against the audience on plot twists and mysteries, changing them when people on sites like Reddit guess the solutions before they're shown officially (like the infamous comic "Armageddon 2001").

1) Do you sometimes get annoyed when the audience guesses some of your plot twists or mysteries before the show shows the solution?

2) Have you ever changed or at least thought about changing a plot twist just to preserve the "surprise" after the original solution was guessed?

I also want to ask about Eduardo Dorado and the person he is dating.

3) Is this person Eduardo's first boyfriend?

So, the questions on Ask Greg have been so caustic and accusatory lately. I get that religion and sexuality are touchy subjects and people are entitled to their feelings, but not even an ounce of grace or courtesy. Manners cost nothing, you know.

And I do just wanna say I really appreciate how open you are with your fans, Greg. You've been answering questions here for what? 20 years? And even some of the really negative ones you've taken in stride. I hope you don't take that negativity too much to heart and know that the greater whole of us appreciate what you do.

Maybe that's too schmaltzy, or maybe it's crossing a line, but I was actually *personally* really bothered by the entitlement, presumptuousness and downright rudeness of a lot of the "questions".

But anyway, I wanted to kind of give my feedback on Young Justice season 4 now that it's ended. So I'm gonna try breaking down each arc and what I thought of it.

First off, I did really enjoy this season. I thought it was bold and really powerful, and while I was a bit overwhelmed by it I thought it triumphed.

Arc 1 - Mars (M'gann/Beast Boy/Connor)

I'm gonna start off by saying what I thought of the actual breakdown of the season and how the arcs were handled. One thing I love about Young Justice is how each year feels really different. There's either a major time skip or there's a totally new structure, or tone, and I think that makes the show feel fresh and this season did that very well.

Having said that, I had a few quibbles here. I think that because the seasons were so segmented in terms of characters used and location, I KINDA wish the arcs had maybe been a little shorter, with more room for one off stories in-between, just some breathing room between all the really plot heavy arcs. Some of the arcs felt a little long-winded, and felt like the stories would have benefited from a bit of tightening in regards to the narrative.

But ultimately I did like that we got a little spotlight for each OG team member and how distinct each arc felt from the others.

Now onto the actual arc.

I LOVE the locale for this one. The take on Mars as a society was so cool. I like the caste system the Martians have, and I love the different idiosyncrasies of what makes their society work. There's also a nice little story about Connor meeting his in-laws properly, which I thought was sweet.

I also love M'gann's new design. Something about it just worked really well.

The Legion stuff worked fairly well as a plot hook. It's basically the thing that carries us through the whole season, so it had to be fairly strong, and I think it... mostly worked well. It's a bit amusing to me that combined Phantom Girl, Chameleon Boy and Saturn Girl don't have the full powers of a single Martian, but I did like their byplay. (Also we find out later Chameleon Boy is kind of messed up, but it's really underplayed and I kinda love that)

The political machinations stuff was great as always. I don't know if this is a solvable whodunit necessarily, but I loved all of the pieces. The Romeo and Juliet romance turned murderous, the machinations of the different factions. That all worked really well. I think the sort of stereotypical evil vizier bigot character Troy Baker was playing was a *bit* too rote for me, but he was probably necessary for the story being told. Also the actual elements of the mystery were very well done. The whole thing made a lot of sense.

I had some issues with M'comm. Firstly, because they're so alien and strange I *did* have trouble distinguishing which Martian was which a lot of the time. This is probably something that'll be fixed with a rewatch, but I really think M'comm would have benefited from a more distinctive design. Also while I like the character a lot in terms of his parts, I think it would have been helpful to see more colours and sides to M'Comm. He's in the season a lot, and while I love his concept, I love his cunning, Ben Diskin was a great casting choice and I love his backstory, I really feel like it would have been cool to see more sides to M'Comm -- what do his underlings think of him? His family? What's pushed him to the lengths he goes to? Not just hear him talking to M'Gann about it, but maybe seeing it in some more tangible way. If he had just been a one-off villain for this arc, I think what we got would have been fine, but he was really one of the primary antagonists for the whole season and he's just kind of miserable and cruel.

The only other moment that really bugged me was when Em'ree and M'gann are fighting, and M'Gann's mother says something along the lines of M'gann's human-like form being her "primary" form I suppose. I felt like this moment was being explained to me logically, when what I really wanted was to *feel* this moment, but I felt like instead it was being logically explained to me.

I think the social justice aspect of the story was... fine. I think this is a very difficult thing to cover well. Especially when you're dealing with aliens and magic. This is both a Romeo and Juliet story, but it's also a story about prejudice and racial inequality and it's all very surface level because there's just no room or time to have all these things line up naturally with the Legion plot, the M'Comm plot, the zeta tube plot, the wedding plot. This is sort of where I think maybe segmenting these into separate into individual stories/episodes a little more might have worked better. Give us as an audience more time to absorb things.

Having said all that, I know my tone can be a bit critical but I still REALLY loved this arc. I just loved this take on Mars and hope to see more of it in the future.

Also, from what I read on the internet, once he is given Black Adam's powers, Malik will go by the monkier "Bolt" when he transforms; wearing a white version of the Black Adam costume while sporting a red cape. As such, Do you think that we'll ever eventually see the Earth-16 version of Malik White?

Hi Greg,

You talked about how there's no viable way for Spectacular to come back due to Sony owning that version but not owning the right the TV Rights.

Sony however seems to have the right to make animated films (based on Into The Spider-Verse and the upcoming Across The Spider-Verse). And they still own the rights to the Spectacular version of the character. In theory, would Sony be legally allowed to put out an animated film in the Spectacular'universe?

I'm not asking if it's likely to happen, just if it's technically possible for them to do that.

Hi Greg and staff moderators!

I'm currently doing research on Young Justice Legacy for a video project I'm working on, and on the game's wikipedia page in the development section, this sentence was added sometime in 2014 after the game came out:

"Many of the initial delays resulted from production uncertainty. In its pre-production phase throughout late 2011 into late 2012, the development of the game shifted constantly between Little Orbit's in house development branch Game Machine, their contractor in Madrid Freedom Factory and a satellite Game Machine studio in Melbourne. Once initial quality issues and developer responsibilities settled, the game was able to be completed."

The sentence doesn't have a source or reference to it. Would you be able to verify any of this, like what time you and Brandon were initially approached by LittleOrbit/Warner Bros for the project, or was this possibly some misinformation that was just put on the page by a random editor?

Questions in regards to the Earth-16 version of Two-Face:

#1. Is his real name Harvey Dent?

#2. Did he used to be the District Attorney of Gotham City, and a close, personal ally of Batman? Also, how many years did he maintain the position of District Attorney prior to becoming Two-Face?

#3. What year did Harvey Dent become Two-Face?

#4. In regards to the person who threw acid and severely disfigured the left side of Harvey's face, was it Salvatore "Sal" Maroni (the second most powerful mobster in Gotham City after Carmine Falcone), or was it Erin McKillen (the head of the McKillen Crime Family, who represent the Irish Mob in Gotham City)?

#5. Is his wife's name Gilda Dent (formerly Gold)?

Hi Greg. Just wanted to ask, although you have probably heard this a lot, are there any updates of YJ season 4 streaming stats? I know that it was widely publicized that the decision to be renewed was contingent on these stats so I just wanted to hear your personal opinion following the season's end. Also, thanks so much for creating this awesome show and for all you effort!

Shalom, Reb Weisman.

I was first introduced to GARGOYLES through the condensed VHS release of "Awakening" about 20 years ago, and I finished watching the entire canonical series (as well as reading the sequel graphic novels) online shortly after the pandemic started. After delving into the lore behind the series (and falling in love with it), there are several things I'd like to ask and put forth observations about.

My first question: The episode "Grief" is puzzling to me as an amateur Egyptologist, as it portrays only Anubis as one of the Third Race. What does this mean that his fellow gods -- both his immediate kin (Ra, Shu, Tefnut, Geb, Nut, Isis, Nephthys, Set, Osiris, and Horus) and all the rest (Bastet, Sobek, Hathor/Sekhmet, Thoth, Taweret, Ptah, et al)? Are they part of a separate magical race, or is there some other reason?

Hey Greg!

1) CONGRATULATIONS! You added Troia and Sergeant Marvel to YJ! Finally, after missing out on putting them in season 2, you've managed to include them. How does that feel?

2) Do you have further plans for both of those characters, in the event that you get one or more season(s)?

3) Why the white and gold costume for Sergeant Marvel? (Not complaining at all - just curious, as she also has a red costume in the comics!)

4) No sign of Lieutenant Marvel. Do you have any plans - any at all - for Lieutenant Marvel (Freddy Freeman)?

5) I love that the show bounced around in time in the episode "Og Htrof Dna Reuqnoc!" I also love that the Invasion tie-in comic did this (between December of Team Year Zero and December of Team Year Five). Is this a narrative approach that you could potentially see yourself taking again in any future seasons of the show?

It's unclear in the show itself, which is why I'm asking. She has certainly provided support to the Team, most notably in "The Lady, or the Tigress?" and "I Know Why the Caged Cat Sings".

Hi, Mr. Weisman,

With Disney doing many revivals or continuations of a lot of their old popular shows (Boy Meets World > Girl Meets World, That’s So Raven > Raven’s Home, The Proud Family, and there were also talks of other revivals for certain shows like Lizzie Maguire that fell through) for the last few years, do you think we have a good chance to a Gargoyles revival in the near future?

If not, does this account for the 0.16% probability of the timeline NOT being fully restored; something that Chameleon Boy was rightfully concerned about?

This is something that confuses me but basically The league of shadows have had a contract on Jade ever since she betrayed them to save Red Arrow(also said in young justice phantoms Artemis arc), now this happens as per Red Arrows Journal happens around May 26 team year 4 yet in young justice legacy 17 February team year 5 Cheshire is working with the League of shadows and even telling them to keep digging so did she just rejoin the league of shadows and betray them once again and the league of shadows just allowed her to rejoin them after her first betrayal so easily seems weird to me.

1) So at first I thought it was a coincidence since English isn't my first language but Talia's accent in Catwoman Hunted and Young Justice Phantoms seemed different to me, Then I even checked with the Young Justice wiki page and they had a similar conclusion. So are the accents for Talia different or are we just reading too much into it since in Catwoman Hunted she sounds like she has a middle eastern accent.While in Young Justice Phantoms she has a british accent.
2) Is there a reason why the two accents were different was it to demonstrate that Catwoman Hunted is canon adjacent.
3) I have always wondered like when you make things that are Canon Adjacent why not simply make them canon it doesn't seem like it would be a particularly difficult task like I get Green Arrow Showcase is pre young justice so When you tabulated the young justice timeline you saw that more elements had to be at play and changed the version of events that happened on earth 16 or GLTAS which you didn't work on so you wanted the freedom to pick and choose the elements you wanted from it. But why make Catwoman Hunted canon adjacent instead of making it canon, I mean there are a few things that are difficult to place in earth 16 timeline since by the time Batwoman becomes active Cheshire has already betrayed the League of Shadows. So why make these decisions you could just as easily altered the story ever so slightly to make it canon, I mean you are the sole writer for it I think. This is not really a criticism since I loved Catwoman Hunted but something that I found curious nonetheless.
4) Also in case we get a 5th season and I really hope it does, you will hit the episode 100 milestone, hope that episode is celebratory.

Just so I can understand this correctly, Clark knew that Conner's burn wounds were still healing, and the reason why he asked Jonny if he wanted to see Conner because he was worried that Jonny would've freaked out (or something) at the sight of Conner's appearance at the time? And then, when he realized how excited Jonny was at seeing Conner again on the video screen, Clark then realized that there was nothing to worry about after all?

I'm looking through all these questions and answers and it's kind of troubling me a bit. I can't tell anyone else how to write (and you have been doing it far longer and more successfully than I have) but part of me disapproves of answering all these questions.

Granted, a lot of questions on this site are amazing and deserve to be acknowledged. I just recall how David Lynch responds when a fan demands an explanation for what they just saw: "What do YOU think happened?"

I guess my question boils down to are there any plot points you don't know? Not because they haven't been written or decided yet, but because you believe its ambiguity should be kept up for debate? When I write, I have a bunch of opinions about my story and what my characters are thinking. But for most of it, I like to pretend I could be wrong, and that a reader's different interpretation could be more on-the-ball than my own.

Are there any mysteries in your stories (Gargoyles, The Spectacular Spider-Man, Young Justice) that you want to leave up to the fans to draw their own conclusions? Something you could offer your OWN opinion on, but that opinion is not canon or official? If you'll indulge me, could you also give me a couple of examples of your unsolved / undecided mysteries (if they even exist)?
