I've been watching and LOVING YJ S4, but I do have one question. If Arion, the son of Vandal Savage (not the clone), was truly immortal, then how is it that he was able to be killed when the statue fell on him? I believe that Vandal himself survived a similar crushing when Klarion was killing him for entertainment.

Hey Greg! I have been typing a series of questions for you to look over when you have the time. It's okay to read all or none of them, but for this one I hope you will take the time answering especially because I don't think anyone has asked you questions about the mental issues on your show Young Justice.

1) What inspired you to give Beast Boy PTSD? As someone who had to suffer anxiety over loss I really appreciate you doing this instead of making BB not have any mental repercussions at all.

2) As a psych major I appreciate the hard work you put into making mental health issues an understandable topic for your audience. I wish more people could have reached out to me the way Beast Boy's family did when I lost my loved ones. I would like to know did you talk to anyone from the APA or other mental health institutions about how to portray mental health treatment in the show?

3) I believe I understand why you killed Superboy in this season and that is because his death was what needs to get all of these characters to deal with their phantoms. But like real people who die they don’t come back, do you believe that bringing Superboy back will undo all the character development these heroes had to go through?

4) What do you hope your audience gets out of YJ Phantoms when they watch these heroes battle with their phantoms?

I'm sure there will be plenty of variants of this question, but are polygamous relationships relatively common among Atlanteans or is the relationship between La'gaan Rodunn and Coral atypical? If it's the former, would it have been possible for Kaldur to have had such a relationship with Tula and Garth - or is that something the network would have immediately vetoed?

Hey Greg!

One of the things I love about your show is how you opened it to having conversations about faith. As a Christian, it is so refreshing to see Zatara practice his beliefs in a positive manner instead of in the stereotypical judgmental way that the media portrays most Christians.

1) In Earth-16 will we see other superheroes' beliefs displayed? I would particularly like to see Jewish characters completing the big three in world religions.

2) If religion exists how are characters able to stay steadfast in their beliefs? If I lived in a world filled with aliens, magic, and immortal beings I would always be questioning my theology.

3) Why does Zatara have so much tolerance for his non-religious teammates? Most of my Christian friends would be trying to convert them to their faith

4) Does Zatanna believe in the same religion as her father or does she have different beliefs from him? I can kind of see her possibly being resentful of God for taking her mom away and maybe disliking the fact she was forced to go to a Catholic girls' school.

5) Why is representing faith in your show important to you? For me, it would be because I can see myself in the characters and learn about someone else's walk of life.

Hey Greg! Big fan of both YJ and Spectacular Spider-Man. As a gay cisman, I had some questions for you about LGBTQ representation in your Young Justice. I apologize if these are questions that someone already asked and they're buried in your archive and I did not see them, but these are important questions to me.

1) Will you give Kaldur or any of your gay characters a coming-out story? It is great to see Kaldur happy with Wyatt but because I believed he was straight for 2 seasons I felt cheated that I didn’t get to see this character discover this part of himself. A lot of shows have done the coming out story in sci-fi/fantasy animation like with Harley Quinn, but there are not a lot of those stories about gay male characters so it would mean a lot to your fans if we can go back and see how these two meet and fell in love.

2) Does homophobia exist in Earth-16? Everyone seems so nonchalant about all these characters having different sexualities, genders, and even multiple partners. 2b)In a world with different political and religious views are some DC Characters chalant towards the LGBTQ community?

3) After two seasons of not having gay representation why did you decide to include more openly queer characters in your stories? As a center-left person, I love what you have done with Kaldur, Lagann, and Violet, but some of your fans feel like these are just woke points. 3b)How do you justify your political views in the show to people who oppose them?

Apologies if this has been asked before, but I searched the archives with a few keywords and couldn't find it.
You've said that YJ season 1 isn't actually set in 2010, instead Team Year Zero just matches the 2010 calendar. I was curious why in issue 10 of the comics, the date 1968 is not only displayed visually but mentioned explicitly by Robin as a year in which things relevant to story took place (And going by other events mentioned in that comic arc 2010 would be the current year).
Was that just for viewer convenience (Team year negative 42 isn't very clean), and can it not be assumed that Robin actually meant team year negative 42 when he referenced it?

I loved the Kaldur arc! I was wondering about the choice to make La'gaan polyamorous (I loved it, no criticisms). Is his life with Coral and Rodunn reflective of a life Kaldur would've liked with Tula and Garth had none of them ever become sidekicks? Or am I reading too much into things?
Thank you!!

How does Mars avoid overpopulation when they live for so long and have so many children? Do they space them out, there is more room below the surface, or something else?

And would it be safe to say that Martians are more in tune with Mars resources so they don't overuse them?

Finally what do Martians eat and drink for sustenance? Not looking for every type just what do they mainly use to stay hydrated or whatever term would be most appropriate.

I see what you guys are attempting to do to fix Halo and I want to let you know - it does not matter. It does not matter if Violet learns more about Gabrielle’s heritage, this does not fix the fact that she is dead with an alien inhabiting her body. That is the main problem with Halo, why are you struggling to grasp that? Why not just resurrect Gabrielle and fix the problem or let Halo go?

I anticipate your response will be that every Muslim you talked to liked it, so let me counter with my own anecdotal evidence - every single fellow Muslim fan I have encountered, in person and online, has a problem with Halo. I have yet to find a Muslim who likes her, only some people who are not as offended as others. Have you taken the time to look and see what we have been saying for the past few years?

There seems to be a lot more acceptance of sexuality/types of relationships in Atlantean culture. I think with Kaldur, Wyynde, Rodunn, and La'gann, that more gay/bi men than we've (explicitly) met above water. Some questions:

1. Is Atlantis more accepting of LGBT+ relationships than surface dwellers?
2. Would, say, King Orin marrying a man be acceptable to the majority of Atlanteans?
3. Did you always picture La'gaan as bisexual? Is Rodunn the first man he has been in a relationship with?
4. Did Rodunn, Coral, and La'gaan enter into the relationship at the same time, or were two a couple beforehand? If so, which two?
5. Who came out to who first? Kaldur to La'gaan or La'gaan to Kaldur? If, in fact, Atlanteans "come out" in their culture.
6. Was M'gann the only person La'gaan had a relationship with while on The Team? I'd ask who, but I have a feeling that's a NO SPOILERS one.
6. To me, this is the weirdest character Yuri Lowenthal could voice and I absolutely love it. Not a question, just a statement.

When M'gann said she was closing up Conner's affairs what exactly were they? His motorcycle buisness? their wedding plans on Earth? A funeral? Could you be a bit more specific?

If I wanted to ask a question about an idea. But less about you taking up the idea and more about. You giving me the thoughts of the DC creator community as a hole. Would you answer, or does that still fall under the 7th rule?

I have 5 questions to ask about Tula.

1. Did Tula ever have any parents or was she an orphan?

2. Did King Orin and Queen Mera ever see Tula as their own daughter?

3. Did Tula ever get a funeral? If so who attended it?

4. Did La'gaan mourn Tula after learning about her death?

5. Was Delphis ever told about Tula (a.k.a. Aqua Girl) and how she sacrifices herself to re-imprison Tiamat? If so then who told her?

I wonder why you guys picked Studio Mir for the entire season 4 of Young Justice. Was it because of any specific feature of that studio? Was it the only studio available? Do you even have a word on which studio you want to animate the show?
I personally like eMation's episodes from season 3 more than Studio Mir's one (mainly because characters were looking better in eMation's episodes and the floating hairs in Atlantis in Quiet Conversations look awesome), so I got a little disappointed when it was announced that Studio Mir was animating the whole season

Hi, Greg!
I wanted to ask why Joan passed away in-universe. Was it complications from old age, or was she sick? Had she been getting worse for a while by the time we saw her in the hospital in s3 ep17, or was it a sudden thing?

Okay, so we've seen Atlanteans resembling fish, marine mammals, and cephalopods, but are there Atlanteans resembling other forms of marine life, like crustaceans or marine reptiles?

In the past you've said that any character that was canonically queer in the comics would also be queer in Young Justice, because you naturally wouldn't want to erase pre-established queer representation. However, I'm curious if the same logic applies to Dinah Lance, as she was going to be revealed to be Bisexual in Gail Simone's Birds of Prey but editorial mistakes led to her stating her heterosexuality instead. Does authorial intent override the editorial error, or do you stick to what was on the page?

Also, is it safe to assume that the same logic applies to Spectacular Spider-Man, making Electro, Mystero and Black Cat all canonically Bisexual?

If Miss Martian is trans-code, does that mean there won't be any REAL trans characters in the foreseeable future?

I used to be a he/him, but I'm one surgery away from being a full she/her, and I take some issue with this show's representation of trans people. It's a long process and the way you depict it makes it the transition look effortless.
