O.k heres some questions that have really been bugging me. I have been
trying to do this e-mail for a long time. I really hope you get a chance
to read this and respond:)

1) You said that Lex would be getting a mate in time. Will she be a
gargoyle?

2) You said that you had had different ideas in mind for Ransom but the
same basic ideas were there. Dose this mean that Lex and Alex were going to be
buds in a sense?

3) Since we know Lex will be getting a mate have you determined if they
will be similar in that they will both be computer geniuses?

4) Somebody asked you once if Lex would have had a mate befor the end of
the show. You asked which show? Let me try this then. Would Lex have started
to be involved with someone by the third season?

4) O.k, I'll try not to be to confusing. When we first saw Angela on
Avalon it seemed that her and Gabrial(sorry if his name is spelled wrong) had
something going on. Both when we were first introduced to the characters
and after they returned to the island for a second time. But Angela is now
with Broadway so was this relationship just in my head or was Gabrial in the
opinion that Angela and him were and item?

5) So you say that we missed a scene in Awakenings part 1# where Lex was
looking at a catapult or something. Do you know what he was going to say?
Just interested:)

6) You said that you, at the time, were not going to give any information
about how Lex met his mate because it was kinda complicated. Please,
Please could you give some idea of what you wanted to have happen? We know so
much about Brooklyn and Sata.

Bell rang! Thank you so much for all the enjoyment you have given me and
countless other fans. Oh and just for the record, when the show first
started I WAS in the proposed age gro
up to watch it:)

Greg responds...

1. I'm not answering that now.
2. That's about the only thing in Ransom, other than the notion of
a kidnapping that did survive.
3. No, I haven't worked that out yet.
4. I've answered this before, but briefly, it must have been in
your head. They always responded to each other like brother and sister.
Nothing else was ever intended by us or Gabriel. As I've stated, Gabriel's
mate is Ophelia.
5. Gosh, it was something like "What an intriguing device?" or
somesuch. It's been so long.
6. Who's Sata? You mean Katana? You don't know much from me about
Brooklyn and Katana. Just that they met in feudal Japan.

Okay, time for a little "Answer Greg" section before we get on to the
questions. :)

1. You asked how I knew the title for that MiB ep you wrote. I really do
wish that they (that everyone, in fact) would list the titles with each
episode because I like to know, it helps catalogue tapes and discuss eps,
etc. But anyway, I found out about the title just by hearing someone else
mention it (In this forum, I think). Since I knew of only the one ep you
wrote, and it was about dreams, I put it together and guessed. I actually
still wonder how _that_ person knew the title, but oh well. I also made a
mistake in my comment about that ep -- it was the _gumming_ scene I liked,
not the icing scene. Wrong weapon. And btw, it's nice to know you're
writing more episodes. :)

2. The contest -- I may as well try my hand at it, even though my
Arthurian
legend is shaky. Arthur, Merlin, Lady of the Lake, Nimue, Morgana,
Galahad, and Mordred. Now comments.

3. I'd just like to say that I enjoyed the World Tour series. Sure, I made
fun of it in top ten lists and filksongs and such, but I really did like
seeing all the different clans of gargoyles (I loved the Guatemalan and
London gargs), and a lot of the stories were really cool. "Shadows of the
Past", for example. So you can add one more person to the list of people
who didn't think that the Avalon Tour was a mistake.

4. When someone asked you about writing, you said you started by writing
stories with your spelling sentences in second grade. I used to do that
all the time. :) _Now_ questions.

5. How old would Katana and the children be when they returned with
Brooklyn
from Timedancing? (This is my "again, other time" posting of this q.)

6. Many people have asked about where Avalon is on a map, but what about
New Olympus?

7. What were some of the things that Elisa retrieved from the ruins of the
clocktower?

8. Was Goliath the only person in history besides the Archmage to ever
have all three of the "ultimate magical artifacts" at once? Well, come to think
of it, he only had half the P-Gate, but that scene in "Vows" where he
walks by his entire collection to get the Gate just kills me. Especially when I
think of how sorcerers through the ages must have strived to find all
those things, and Goliath doesn't seem to notice the enormity of his possession
of the artifacts.

9. At the end of "City of Stone," Macbeth is holding an unconscious Demona
and about to drop her onto a jagged piece of metal to kill her. But how
can he be conscious if she's not? Was this an oversight, or is there some
reason?

10. Just a random little question. In the humanlike form that she prefers,
is Mab blue like Oberon, or is she some other color?
11. a. I suppose you probably won't feel like telling, but what was Arthur
doing looking for Merlin at the South Pole? b. About how long would Arthur
search for Merlin before finding him? c. If Oberon was calling his
children to the Gathering, wouldn't he want his _biological_ children (ie Merlin)
there? Or does he even know that Merlin's his son? Okay, that about does
it for me. Thank you!

Greg responds...

1. Ahh.
2. Nope.
3. Thanks. That makes two of us.
4. cool.
5. O.K. Hold on, I'll go look it up. O.K. I'm back. I never did
the math on Katana, but I did do the math on the kids. Nash is 26 years old
(biologically thirteen). Tachi is six years old (biologically three).
6. It's a secret.
7. Well, I'm sure she picked up Zafiro's sun amulet. Some
photographs, including a picture of herself in the Belle dress dancing with
Goliath. She picked up the gargoyles radio equipment. A few other
momentos. Some books, probably.
8. Cool, huh? I think someone previous to the Archmage must have
put them together at least once, so that the Archmage even knew to do it.
9. If you hit Macbeth, Demona is hurt too. But not so much as if
you had hit her directly. The spell is a great equalizer, but not a
complete equalizer, if that makes sense.

10. Mab? Humanlike? It is too laugh.

11a. The foxtrot? b. Depends on how many episodes were ordered in
the first season (of a non-existent show). c. He knows Merlin is his son.
He has a, shall we say, difficult relationship with the boy.

I know it happens a lot with a lot of people, but I still want to
apologize for forgetting q's. Ah well, just one extra post. 12 (or 1, depending).
Could you reveal a little of the story behind Oberon's and Titania's
Mirrors? Were they wedding presents or something? Who made them? And how
did Titania lose hers to the museum -- does she care that it's gone and
destroyed now?

Greg responds...

Sorry Tanika. But this isn't really a good format to tell entire
stories. And obviously there's a whole story or two behind those mirrors.

Dear Greg: In the episode "The New Olypians" when Borieus handed down
Elisa's sentence of never being able to leave New Olympus, he makes a
comment hoping she comes to enjoy her life there. Were we as viewers
suppose to think that he was interested in her and that's why he imposed
the sentence? Looking forward to reading your answer.

Greg responds...

No. He wasn't interested in her. He simply bore her know ill will
and hoped that her "sentence" wouldn't be too horrible for her.

One more quick question: If a gargoyle is chipped or slightly damaged in
stone form, what happens when they wake up? To chips tranlate to scars,
or just disappear? What if someone vandalizes a stone gargoyle, such as
chiseling off just their hand?

Greg responds...

I guess a lot would depend on how much time was left before sunset.
Slight damage would have time to heal. Gross damage might have time to seal
up at least, but I wouldn't count on a gargoyle surviving major trauma.

It occured to me one day that alot more people like your show than I
thought. Have you ever thought about releasing your stories in a book. You
could fit virtually a whole season in what, 200, 300 pages?? Have you ever
thought about this type of media to put out more stories. You could put
out multiple volumes, of the different seasons and different spin-offs. THis
would let you get alot more indepth. You've probably though about this
before but I was bored and thought I'd post this. Would the money hungry
Communist a.k.a Disney let you do this?? Thank in advance

Greg responds...

Disney's hardly communistic. Quite the reverse. I'm sure they'd
let me do it if they thought they could make money off of it. But there
aren't any publishers banging down my door to ask for this stuff. If there
was, I'd gladly start working. Do you know anyone?

Please answer these few questions, I try to keep it short and brief. I
haven't had the chance to watch Gargoyles lately, due to work and all, so
please excuse my wording, for I forget the episode's names.

1.) When Goliath, Angela, Elisa, and Bronx end up meeting Odin, the
gargoyles seem to be fine in the freezing weather, while poor Elisa and
freezing her butt off. Then in "The Price" (I remembered, one of my favs),
Brooklyn complains about the cold weather. I am sure the Norse country was
much colder than New York, so was that just an exageration on Brooklyn's
part? (It's not an important question, just crossed my mind)

2.) Bronx is like a "dog-oyle" so to speak, were there any plans for a
"cat-oyle"?

3.)Goliath knew about Demona and Macbeth, but when Demona and Thailog fell
to their "deaths", he thought Demona was dead, but knew that she can only
die by Macbeth's hand. Was that a mistake that slipped by, or do I have my
episodes mixed up?

4.) Was there any more plans for Elisa to become a gargoyle again?

5.) Whatever happened to Vinny after he "creamed" Goliath?

6.) Why doesn't Talon seem to want to be human again? Thank you!

Greg responds...

1. Anyone can complain about something. That doesn't mean they are
really suffering.
2. Bronx has much in common with a dog obviously, but he's a
gargoyle beast, not a dog-goyle. There are only two "gargate" species.
Gargoyles and Gargoyle Beasts. There's a lot of variation in there, but no
equivalents for every animal on the planet.
3. Sigh. I've answered this before. Goliath doesn't know the
extent of Demona and Macbeth's link. It's hard to operate with certainty
about it. Besides, he wasn't indicating that she was dead. Just that he
couldn't be sure.
4. No.
5. He briefly joined the Quarrymen. Then he moved to Japan.
6. He does. He's simply resigned to the idea that it isn't likely
to happen.

Will you be at the 1998 Gathering of the Gargoyles

Greg responds...

I hope to be, and it's looking good. I just got my plane tickets
TODAY. As soon as the hotel's confirmed, I'll make an official
announcement.

Where on the evoltionary path do humans and gargoyles differ? Meaning when
did they go in different directions.

Greg responds...

I'd say they diverged before homo sapiens existed as a distinct
race. Perhaps back at the dawn of mammals. But I won't be held to that
answer.

Hi, Mr. Weisman. :)

1) Are you ever going to tell who created the artifacts ASIDE from the
writers and artists who created them in OUR world? <:)

2) Who turned Odin's lost eye into the Eye of Odin artifact?

3) Did you plan to include any Hindu legends or figures in Gargoyles?

3a) Did you plan to include Babylonian, Pacific Islander, or any other
mythologies in Gargoyles?

4) Did you plan to have more gods or mythological figures of various
mythologies already seen in the show (ie Ancient Egyptian, Nordic,
Ashante) appear?

5) Are Puck, Anansi, Coyote, and Raven the only tricksters among the
Third Race? If there are others, could you name a few?

6) Would Brooklyn have traveled to any more contemporary eras (ie the
1950s, the Summer of Love, the 1980s) in TimeDancer?

6a) Would he have gone to Russia, China, or India?

7) Do the Illuminati know about Nokkar?

8) Would any other famous classics of literature's characters or
situations appear? (from Victor Hugo's, HG Wells, HP Lovecraft, Sir Arthur Conan
Doyle, Jules Verne, etc.)

Greg responds...

1. Ever is a long time.

2. A story for another day.

3. Eventually.

3a. Ditto.

4. Ditto.

5. There are others, but you can look 'em up as easy as me.

6. Maybe.

7. Heh, heh, heh.

8. Yep.
