Many thanks for the link upthread to the Devin Grayson interview! It was a wonderful read. I haven't read her comics, but I enjoyed reading her Smallville book, 'City'.
Zoe: What's that, sir? Mal: Freedom, is what. Zoe: No, I meant what's that? Mal: Oh. Yeah. Just step around it. I think something must've been living in here.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!
Donna Troy was killed by that strange computer girl in The Outsiders, except she (not Wonder Girl) was a Superman robot at the time.
OK, now you guys are makin' shit up.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Okay. Here's how I think it went: Indigo travelled back in time to the 21st century, and in the process of seeking out other robotic life, was using a Superman robot to repair herself (after having apparently attacked Cyborg, but really it was a wacky misunderstanding). Donna Troy was killed during this process.
Kory seems to have been talked back into the Titans by Gar. She's very cranky, and is probably going to kill and eat the Super Dog.

Now if only I could figure out why her Titans sucked so bad.
From the interviews, I'd say her main area of interest is the Batfamily. I know I find it difficult to write a compelling story about characters I don't care about.
And one friend of mine was stunned speechless by the HoYay when I told her where Superboy came from
Whenever I'm trying to explain it, I pretty much end up with "Superboy has two daddies. No, really. But worry not -- no male pregnancy was involved. We think."
OK, now you guys are makin' shit up.
Every time I think someone's makin' shit up, they send me a scan, and I have to say, "Okay, so Impulse really did put on a cheerleader's uniform and wave his pom poms for Robin in such-and-such issue of Young Justice."

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.

As was Lillith. It kind of bit.

Kory returned to Earth (again) during the "Our Worlds at War" crossover thing, IIRC.

I love Impulse. That kid's nuts.

Impulse and Robin are just dolls.
Whenever I'm trying to explain it, I pretty much end up with "Superboy has two daddies. No, really. But worry not -- no male pregnancy was involved. We think."
And damn, this makes me giggle.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

God, I hope so. There is no need for Super Dog.

You can't say that! If Conner, the superpowered fruit of an impossible union, doesn't get in touch with his softer side, we could be in a lot of trouble.

And this would be bad....how? (c.f. conversation in the Buffy thread, or, It's All About The Dark, Baby.)
