Mr. Weisman,

What are the ages of each prisoner in the Phantom Zone who have been identified by name in Season 4 of Young Justice?

Justice for the West writes...

1. Are Mary and Rudy West ever showing up on the show again?
2. Does Artemis have any relationship with Wally's parents? Are they close?
3. Is there communication between Artemis and Wally's parents?
4. I'm guessing no. But does Jason Bard know Artemis is a vigilante? He isn't present at the Supermartian wedding so I'm guessing he doesn't know.
5. Was Rita Farr LGBTQ?

Hello Greg.
I'm reading what you've been answering and when you say the majority of the fans are happy with how you've been handling the show (Young Justice) for the past two seasons (and that's why you're not making any major changes in writing) I find it quite hard to believe, being honest. Not because I believe you do not get praise for the show, but because when I look for people's opinion on the last two seasons and if they want the show to be renewed for a fifth I mostly find fans complaining, disheartened and disappointed. Just now I read someone on tumblr saying that after 2 seasons they've come to terms with the thought that it would have been better if the show didn't come back.
And I don't want to agree with that statement but right now I can't not agree completely either...
The pandemic must have made things difficult for all of you, but I think the time it took the show to come back from Invasion to Outsiders was a problem. The writing and storytelling hasn't been as great. Seasons 1 and 2 are excellent, Outsiders imo was bad for the most part. You keep incorporating new characters when there's still plenty between the original and season 2 characters. The storyline/plot of season 3 was all over the place according to most people I've encountered and I can't say it was too compelling. And I know my vague comments might mean nothing to you, I just feel bad for all the pessimism I see. Which is getting to me.
Season 1 was excellent in terms of character arcs, plot in general, twists and turns, surprises, revelations, climax, cliffhanger, everything. Season 2 was different but it was still really good. Seasons 3 in comparison was disappointing. And while season 4 is slightly better than 3, I might see why people are not happy with how the show is going on.
I know this is a silly question to ask, but why hasn't the writing been as good as season 1 lately?
My impression is that if people want more episodes, it isn't because they want more of what you're doing now. If people want more episodes and still hope there's a season 5, they want the show to go back to it's glory days when the plot was focused and the characters (the OG Team, mainly Dick, Kaldur, Artemis, M'gaan and Conner) were united. Fans keep giving you opportunity and chances but from what I see they are disappointed because what you are doing isn't enough.
Some might be fully content, that's why you keep going like you do. But the others (fans who have been with the show since season 1) are left hoping and waiting.
I don't know what I'm doing writing this.... I guess I'm just sad and I feel you should hear not just the good but the bad as well.
I guess it's all useless since you are happy with what you're doing. And that's what matters ultimately.
The show has become frustrating I guess.

NO SPOILERS writes...

Hi Greg. I'll try to go to the point.
Yesterday I watched episode 25 of YJP and while it was "interesting" I felt it didn't have stakes at all. The companion comic Young Justice: Targets since a couple of months ago(?) has already a few pages out and because of that I already knew Conner will be alright, Gar is doing better and got an animal support system, and Dick will also be alright as Nightwing shows up in the comic. I don't go looking for spoilers but sadly going through the internet one simply and sadly stumbles upon them more often than not. I'm angry and sad about it. I don't think you have anything to do with leaks as you have always loved keeping things under wraps; but is there anything at all you can do about this problem for the future?
Worst of all episode 26 got leaked yesterday and I got Phantoms finale spoiled X( Raquel will be alright as well and the Supermartian wedding happens. Yey, happy ending! Happy ending but all too predictable and spoiled...
One thing I'm actually happy about and I thank you or whoever made it happen; thank you for having Icicle Jr. at the wedding :) One of the reasons YJ became one of my favorite DC animated series is because of its use of the character of Cameron Mahkent. I've always liked him and I've always wanted for shows, cartoons and movies to make more use of him. And well, since he is "so connected" to M'gann and Conner's relationship begennings I was really happy he shows up at the wedding. Been waiting to see that since the proposal back in YJO. So, thanks for that.
I hope that if the show gets another season, Cameron gets to actually be involved overall. But I don't trust you that much if I have to be honest XD Only because I've seen what you've done in these last 2 seasons of the show with characters people have been wanting to see again...
I wish this show the best. And good luck.

I've really been enjoying the villains in YJ's 4th season, especially the dynamic between Lor-Zod and Ma'alefa'ak's team (you had me cheering for Mantis with his little Phantom Zone projector victory). Can you share a bit about what writing those characters was like? How did you decide to have their personalities play off each other the way you did? Any fun behind the scenes stories while putting them together?

Also on a personal note, when my husband and I were just getting engaged, we were watching the earlier seasons of Young Justice as they aired. Episode 25 of this season just aired on our 10 year wedding anniversary, so thank you and the team for such a long time of getting to enjoy this universe and these characters (we've got Targets on our pull list and are hoping for a 5th season).

We really enjoyed seeing Kaldur's romantic relationship grow in these recent seasons and love Wyynde--he felt like such a real person with that cute exasperation at Kaldur refusing to take a break this season. Did you intend for Wyynde to eventually become Kaldur's partner back when he was first introduced in the tie in comics? What made you decide to pair those two up?

Mr. Weisman,

In the fourth issue of "Justice League vs. Suicide Squad," there is a moment where the Emerald Eye of Ekron refuses to attack Green Lantern Jessica Cruz; the reason why this happened was never explained in the comics (as far as I know...) As such, if this event ever happens in the Earth-16 universe to your version of Jessica Cruz, would you be able to provide a plausible explanation as to why this happens?

Mr. Weisman,

Based on my observations in "Over and Out," am I correct to assume that when the Earth-16 version of the Emerald Eye of Erkon chooses its female wielder and transforms them into the Emerald Empress, that person's natural eye color temporarily changes to green until the transformation is reversed?
