Pity there aren't plans to continue the series. Pressure may change their minds. I'd love to see Razer become a Canon Immigrant..

If GL:TAS is canceled in favor of Batman and Titans, is there any chance of someone in the staff submitting a proposal for short-form GL content in the future?
Please?

I love your work on GLTAS.
I've always wondered: What's the role of a producer?
Also, can we expect to see a Kilowog-centric episode in the future?

This is not an attempt to mine for spoilers but have the Controllers and Darkstars been considered to be used on GL:TAS?
After seeing Krona, got me thinking, for the Zamarons like Queen Aga'po, is what she currently looks like an evolved form from what she looked like before splitting off from the Guardians - branching off physically and ideologically?

Oh hai, Giancarlo. As or Aya may switch Lantern colors to a possibly fateful Black, not knowing which side she may be on (This was written before episode 19 started!), Can you please look at my art? And Yes, there are Aya pics there, too. Save Aya, man. i hope she's still a good girl as a Black.

Hi, Meester Volpe(lol,Meester) I Like GLTAS and King of the Hill, I was excited to see Aya again after many, many months and I am not happy with what I witnessed. I have a lot of questions for you:
1. Can Aya just make a new Derpy Hoofing Body?
2.Could there be a chance for anybody (definitely not Razer, that'd be ridiculous hahaha!*) to go grab her body B-A-C-K, or will it just be too late and it'll be making a guest appearence in Fat Albert's junkyard his next reboot? If he gets a reboot.
3. Could the dissection affect anything when she's a robot girl again?!
11. Considering any uprgaderinos for Aya-Diddly-Doodly(ha, Flanders)?
25. Were you upset when somebody wrote that?!
50. Will Aya be in her body again by the time CN turns 20 month is OVER?!
A-113. Have you or will you be crying to sleep after what happened tonight or before?
Over 9000. Do you think the way I'm numbering these questions is funny?
Theory of relativity. What are your favorite GL and KotH Episodes and characters?
E=MC^2(squared). Am I asking too many ridiculous questions?
In short, I hope Aya gets her body and Razer back and...
1999-2002. Can you get her that by next week or in 2 weeks? That is all.
*sarcasam
I hope I wasn't too rude, ok?

Ha ha, sorry, I just read your questions right now. Most of them are filed under "you'll have to wait and find out!"
My favorite episodes of GLTAS are probably 12 and 13 (the last two of season one) but there's some really good ones coming up in season 1.5 that I might like even better!
There's a great KOTH episode where they burn down the firehouse and each tell their version of the story. I also like the one where they think Bobby might be the buddha reincarnated.
And yes, I cry myself to sleep all the time.

Follow up questions:
2000. Have you ever heard of and/or watched Animaniacs?
2001. Would you have the Warners save Aya at any time?
123.What would happen if that happened?(Mainly when she who will not be named gained control of her and tried to say bye bye to her emotions? (Starts with a "D")) Don't forget to answer the questions before this comment and here, please.

I know the Animaniacs. Our sound engineers for GLTAS worked on that show. That would be great if the Warners helped get Aya's body back. Maybe I'll put that in an upcoming imaginary episode on twitter.

Makes me wish I still had a Twitter to join in, can I help from here with imaginary episodes? And for that matter, why not do 2 Animaniacs ones: One when Drusa takes control of Aya (I was not happy after seeing that ending at all!) and the Warners come into the scene and make her wish she decided to free her after coming to Oa (Or even regret hacking her in the first place!), and the other about the Warners saving her body from dissection? Those would be great imaginary episodes! Warners save Aya twice! Who wouldn't want that? We can also have other characters from the show in there as well! Why not also have them grab Aya and Drusa and the Guardian can chase them around the Warner lot spreading all over Hollywood! Do you think we can also get Animaniacs writers? If not, I might understand. Warners save Aya episodes would be the best imaginary episodes ever!

thank for the compliments on my work, and my name! Ha ha.
I'm glad you loved King of the Hill and Avatar! I may be biased, but I feel like if you loved Avatar you might like Green Lantern too. It has, at the very least, similar "tone" and "feel" as Avatar. There's romance, fighting, space exploration, comedy, drama, all of that!

Ohai Mr. Volpe!
For GL:TAS did you work on character design at all? Could you tell us what were the inspirations for the main crew's designs, any particular references whilst designing?
Thanks for an awesome show!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Fierymonk In reply to WiseOldTabbyCat [2012-08-09 16:20:40 +0000 UTC]
Hello! I didn't "work" on the designs so much as helped art direct them with Bruce Timm. For all of them, the goal was to make it look like Bruce's style.
Josh Middleton was the guy who did the main four I believe. You could probably ask him what his specific references were. Personally, I see a lot of Mega Man in Aya and some Zuko in Razer. But I think that was subconscious/ coincidental and never meant to be a straight rip off.
Kilowog is interesting too because in our show he looks more "boar" like than in the comics. Again, these were all choices Josh made under Bruce's direction.
Hope that sort of answers your question!

Who did the artwork/design for the front cover of this upcoming GL DVD set? Bet it looks rather awesome in hi resolution and without all the labels and text. [link]

I should post the lighting key our designer Jeff Palm did. It's much darker and cooler than the finished product. All the labels and text kinda kiddy-fy the whole thing.
