Dick Grayson from DC's Young Justice in front of a big clock and other DC characters
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Young Justice features a time jump between seasons, but the second season boasted the largest jump of five years. Young Justice depicts DC heroes and sidekicks in their youth as they navigate superherodom and their teenage years. Each season is set some years after the previous season, typically only one or two years. Young Justice season 2, however, had a much longer gap between seasons - which served a very specific purpose.
Young Justice Season 2 Time Jump Explained By Creators Close In an interview with DC, Young Justice's dual showrunners, Greg Weisman and Brandon Vietti, answered questions from viewers. Among them was how they determine the length of time left between seasons, prompting the pair to expound upon the five-year time jump between season 1 and 2. Weisman explained:
Time jumps obviously create a mystery at the beginning of each season. We know our audience will want to know what happened between seasons and we can tease out the highlights over the course of a new season, which gives us good material to write around. These time jumps are actually perfect for Young Justice. Most animated series are frozen in time, with characters that do not properly age or experience time. This would have completely undermined the coming of age narrative for the central characters in Young Justice. Adding the time jumps means that each character ages explicitly from season to season, and thus grows and develops closer to their adult incarnation, reflecting the central theme.
