Here are some more questions: 1: Why did you decide to take down the idea that there would be biomechanical dinos on Bota Magna? 2: Are there any other surviving Toa, Matoran, Agori, Glatorian, or Turaga anywhere else in the universe besides the Red Star? 3: Will you be at Comic-Con next year?!?!?! 1) I am not sure what you mean by "take down." That was an idea I had, it was never discussed with or approved by the rest of the story team, and then the line got cancelled. So it can't be official, it was never approved. 2) Um, yes, on Spherus Magna. And there are no Glatorian or Agori on the red star. 3) Doubt it. No reason for me to go. Why do you feel sad about the whole Comic-Con thing? Why no reason? Is it because you're upset about the Bionicle reboot that the fandom keeps ranting about? Well, Greg, get this. You can always still publish YOUR OWN books. That could help. (Hope you don't feel too sad anymore.)
BEGeorge	2015-11-23 23:13 UTC–5 Permalink Hey Greg, I'm not sure if you have gotten this question yet, but I was wondering how gravity works in the Bionicle universe, specifically on Bara Magna because using the Great Spirit Robot's size it has been estimated to be absolutely gigantic, but characters from Aqua Magna (which has much less mass it seems) seem to have no problem traveling there, so is there an explanation for this? Thanks!

I have been there a bunch of times ... I would rather other people from the company get to go and experience it, rather than me going all the time. As for "no reason" -- whe I was going before, it was because I was writing the BIONICLE comic and the BIONICLE team was paying the expenses for me to go. Since I am not writing anything like that now, there is no reason for anyone to need me there, since there is nothing specific for me to promote. And I am not sure I would want to go anyway, since it would mean taking time away from my daughter.

Thanks! Sorry, I am not sure I understand your question. Are you asking about the difference in gravity between inside and outside the MU? Because inside the MU would have been artificial gravity that could be adjusted as needed.
BEGeorge	2015-11-24 18:55 UTC–5 Permalink I was asking why it seems as though Bara Magna and Aqua Magna have the same gravity given that the Matoran seemed to have no trouble living on Bara Magna. Are you saying the the Matoran Universe has artificial gravity, and if so how is that possible?

Are you saying the the Matoran Universe has artificial gravity, and if so how is that possible? 1) Forgive me if this is a stupid question, but since Bara Magna and Aqua Magna were part of the same planet originally, why wouldn't they have similar gravity? 2) Mata Nui was a giant robot that functioned as a spaceship. Like most advanced space vessels in science fiction, it had artificial gravity. Without it, things would be floating around all the time during space travel.
BEGeorge	2015-11-25 12:05 UTC–5 Permalink Well when Bara and Aqua Magna were joined they would have had one collective mass and therefore one collective gravitational pull, but because they were separated Bara Magna has much more mass and therefore much more gravity. This may not have been something you have considered; I was just curious.

dlon214	2015-11-26 10:50 UTC–5 Permalink *Hello Mr.Farshtey,I am a MASSIVE* fan of your Ninjago Graphic Novels!Now,that I get to interview you I can ask the questions I really wanted to have answer for.So my question are: Is there a new book(s) for Ninjago all ready out because the last Ninjago book I read from your series is Comet Crisis,was that the last one? --------------------------------------------------------- When did you start writing graphic novel for LEGO?I am pretty curious because if you were writing your books when Ole Christain Kirk was around,you will be in your 110s or 120s! --------------------------------------------------------- When they changed the date for the Ninjago movie did you have to edit the book 'The Phantom Ninja'because you wrote the old date (it's okay,you didn't know they were gonna change it),or did you leave it alone.Did you take the out permanetly. --------------------------------------------------------- Those are all my question for now!I hope you reply!** Jammers Happy Thanksgiving Mr.Farshtey!

keiththelegokid	2015-11-26 14:57 UTC–5 Permalink Well, currently I am trying to find out how powerfull light is. So I have a few questions for you. I know light and shadow are equal but which is more powerful a makuta of shadow or a toa of light? Can a Toa of Light take out a Makuta in two (or three) shots? (Assuming the makuta can fight back.) Which of three types of light can incenerate anterdermis? (Solid, Elemental, or Laser.) Can a Makuta feel Elemental Light in thier Protodermis shell? Is light dangerous to other species beside Makuta? Can Toa of Light move and think at the speed of light? (Kinda like the Flash or Quicksilver) How much Light can a Toa of Light use in say an hour? Thanks, and Happy Thanksgiving. P.S. I saw that you said LEGO would prefer you not to post in other topics. I think alot of us fans would love for you to be able to.
fish32	2015-11-26 21:47 UTC–5 Permalink Hi, Greg. First of all, let me just say how glad I am that you're still doing this. After all this time, and all these setbacks, the fact that the BIONICLE story is still in your head and that you're still in contact with its fans really means a lot to me. I love BIONICLE. The world you've created, with all of its intriguing mysteries and memorable characters, is really incredible. I was one of the winners of a BZPower contest to go see the new BIONICLE announced at ComicCon, and I was really disappointed. They seem to have the mentality of "we have to keep things simple because this is for little kids", and that to me is a huge mistake, because a big part of what made BIONICLE so great and endearing was how complex and intricate it was. The questions I have for you today aren't about the actual storyline, but rather are about you and BIONICLE as a story. 1) How do you feel about BIONICLE? Is it something you're proud of? 2) Do you feel, or have you ever felt, an emotional attachment to the storyline you've created? 3) Do you still care about it, or has enough time passed now that there are other things on your mind? 4) I've been beating around the bush on this one, since it seems unlikely to most people and you probably get asked this a lot, but, do you think it's something that you'd ever, at any point in the future, consider continuing or finishing, if it were possible? I ask these questions because BIONICLE, to me, is an amazing story, and it would really be an injustice in my opinion if it went unfinished at a time when there was so much to look forward to. I still don't want to give up hope that it will be continued someday. Thank you for your time.
Pip-Took	2015-11-27 11:00 UTC–5 Permalink What gave you the inspiration for ninjago's theme of light and darkness (or shadow)? does the light and darkness react through characters as it would in a physical, emotional, and chemical way? (I don't know much about ninjago, so you would be the expert to answer my questions.) thank you.

Buried I can answer this one. Mazeka was recruited about five years before the present, so he would have been in the Order before even the 2001 storyline.
