Granny Goodness is cruel, ruthless, and devoted to serving the will of her master [[Darkseid]], though she is not afraid of deviating from his orders or interests in order to overcome her adversaries.

Gretchen Goode, popularly known as Granny Goodness, gives off the impression of a warm and matronly businesswoman who sees her products as a means to inspire children, encourage creativity, and maintains this notion even when she is being disparaged on live television by [[G. Gordon Godfrey]], never raising her voice or appearing to take umbrage from his less-than-flattering commentary.<ref name=e309 /> She appears kind and generous, such as when she complimented [[Beast Boy|Garfield Logan]]'s acting skills and telling him his mother would be proud.<ref name=e312>{{ep ref|312}}</ref>

Gretchen was an invited guest on a live [[GBS]] interview with [[G. Gordon Godfrey]] about her latest product: the [[Goode Goggles]]. Despite Godfrey's claims that the device was harmful, especially for the youth, Gretchen proclaimed to take pride in her product and in its goal: to spark the imagination. She quickly changed subject and announced a partnership between the [[Goode World Studios]] and the [[Wayne Foundation]] to help meta-trafficking victims. She went on to say that both companies have made donations to the new [[Meta-Human Youth Center]] in [[Taos]] and other charities.<ref name=e309>{{ep ref|309}}</ref>

After watching the dailies for ''[[Space Trek 3016]]'', Gretchen complimented [[Paul Sloane]] and [[Beast Boy|Garfield Logan]] for their performances. She declared that she had made a good call in casting them together for the show, in an attempt to "recapture that ''[[Hello, Megan!]]'' magic". She went on to reassure Garfield that both [[Marie Logan|his mother]] and [[Rita Farr|godmother]] would be proud of him. At that point, [[Steve Dayton]] approached Gretchen for a word.

In a live interview with [[G.

All the while assuming responsibility for the incident, Gretchen placed the blame on [[Jaqqar Marlo]], director of research and development, who found dead [[August 5, 2018|months ago]]. Despite not being able to bring Marlo to justice, Gretchen reassured that "true justice" would be served up by herself. She had already recalled all her faulty devices and would offer new ones in return, thus promising to "make everything right as rain".<ref name=e314 />
