Have you met Stan Lee before?
1) The G1 stories were aimed at 10-12 year olds. G2 was not aimed at kids that old.
2) Like I said, not being involved with G2, it wouldn't be appropriate for me to say, "Yes, there's this link between G1 or G2" or even if one is possible. The G2 guys had their own vision and only they can speak to this.
3) I can tell you definitively that there is no link between the NINJAGO and BIONICLE universes.
1. Understandable. Waaait...10-12? That's just a suggestion, right? This universe is epic!
2. I get that. Who did write the stories? Do you know them? Why didn't you get the job? Your stories were more...in-depth.
3. True, true. I totally get that. But you have to admit, there are similarities, like the fact that one of the merged Rahkshi forms could turn itself into a cyclone and the skull spiders.
Do you know the Hageman brothers?
Also, do LEGO theme rights become free to the public when LEGO stops using them?
1) The idea from the beginning was to aim the story at older kids. It's easier to get younger kids interested in a story written for older kids than vice versa.
2) Ryder Windham wrote the books, and no, he isn't someone I know. I think the BIONICLE team felt they wanted a fresh perspective for the new line.
3) No, I don't know the Hagemans, although I used to send my comic scripts to them as a courtesy so that they were informed what I was doing.
4) No. LEGO Group retains the rights to their themes regardless of whether or not we are actively producing sets. Same way Marvel still owns comic characters they created even if the character is not appearing in a book.

No.
I know you weren't really involved with G2, but do you know if there were plans at one point to include the Mask of Life? I mean, it seems kind of silly to include the Masks of Time and Creation but not the Mask of Life.

I don't see why that should be the case. G2 had its own rules and own set of Legendary Masks--- Creation, Control, and Ultimate Power. Time never appeared outside of the books anyway.
Awesome! i like your LEGO ninjago graphic novels for papercutz, but why were they stopped being made after the nindroid comic books? i love those, but there haven't been any new ones for a while.
why has he not been answering?
I haven't met Sten LEE before but I'd love to meet such a famouse person.

No idea. I never heard anything about it and there was no mention of it in the original three year plan I read.

Papercutz lost the NINJAGO license. Little Brown is doing the NINJAGO graphic novels now. The first two parts of the Dark Island trilogy are in stores now.

1. If Velika manage to instaure his policy, It will be him who will reign on Spherus Magna? Or Velika will use someone to rule the planet in its place but Velika will manipulate him in the shadow like a puppet?
2. What kind of policy Velika wants to instaure on Spherus Magna?
3. The Staff of Artakha can be used outside of the Matoran Universe? If so, Its power has the same range?
4. Artakha has already used the Staff of Artakha at least one time?
5. The Staff of Artakha was created before or after the Great Cataclysm?
6. The destinies of the beings of the MU to be transformed or destroyed by the Energized Protodermis was programmed by the Great Beings?
Buried
In Journey's end, Teridax declared that his new body (GSR) would be able to destroy universes. The Great Spirit Robot can really destroy universes?
How long the Great Beings exist? Since 150,000 years? 250,000 years? or more?

1. The line was meant to reach the preteen demographic, so when they became teenagers, they still liked it.
I have a QUESTION.
Who is East (besides the fact that he is the base charater for Takadox and you wrote him).
Thank-You Greg for giving us your time and answers to our questions to the best of your knowlage, it really means a lot to us.
When you can, would you be able to answer these Bionicle G1 questions?
1) Could an Iden user inhabit an unconscious body, either coexisting with, destroying, or kicking out the dormant spirit inside? If so, which of the three (or fourth?) would happen?
2) Can an Iden user inhabit the body of a souless glatorian?
3) Do Makuta have souls as opposed to just being nothing more then gas?
4) Does Energized Protodermis have a soul (in bionicle terms)?
5) Aren't rahkshi just terrifying and awesome at the same time?
Hello Greg! I have a couple of questions:
1. Does any of the known Glatorian has a family?
2. How does metabolism works in Glatorian/ Agori? Since we know they live like 600.000 years, they have to wait like 1000 years to be an adolescent and another 1000 years to be an adult?
3. Is Annona a mammal being? or she is like a type of mollusk? She has tentacles...so that.
4. Could Ackar have grandchildren, knowing he is an old person?
Thank you for answering
