(1) I believe you mentioned that, because of other obligations,
Patrick Stewart was unable to contribute his talents to Gargoyles. Had he
done so, though, which part would he have played? Someone during the first two
seasons (like Mace Malone), or someone we haven't met yet (like Mr.
Duval, or the Director)?
(2) In my earlier post, asking whether more "Western" deities, like
Jesus or Buddha (Mohammed being a prophet) were also Children of Oberon, I
didn't mean to imply that the show was condescending toward those that were
so represented, and I apologize. I guess this one wasn't a question.
Thanks a lot for being such a mensch and putting up with all our
obsessive nitpicking. Of course, we wouldn't be doing all this brooding if you
hadn't come up with such creative, compelling stories in the first place. So
maybe you deserve it, after all ;)
1) That's not what I said. We couldn't meet his agent's
standard price for voice over work. We discussed asking Jonathan or
Marina to make a personal appeal to Patrick directly, but we decided
that that would be an unfair request. We briefly considered Mr. Stewart
for at least three parts. All three were eventually cast with great
people. I have no regrets. Two of the characters were originally
introduced in the first season. One was intoduced in the second.
Frankly, I think at least two of the three are obvious. So let's start
a contest. The first person to name (by posting here at ASK GREG) the
three parts that we considered Patrick Stewart for will win... well, a
lot of personal satisfaction and gloating privelidges. No credit for
partial answers, and I won't be giving hints. Enter as often as you
want.
2) No apologies necessary. I didn't take offense. But it's
nice to have someone point out unconcious biases occasionally.

Hi Greg, thanks for taking the time to answer our questions. I just
have three morbid questions ;) -
1) In "Long Way To Morning", when the Archmage falls in the chasm
there is a thud sound, as of a body hitting the floor of the chasm. Yet in
"Avalon" the future Archmage saves him and there is a distinct lack of a thud.
What gives?
2) How was evil Lexington able to destroy Demona in "Future Tense" if
she's immortal? Is there a limit to the immortality?
3) Macbeth and Demona's pain seems to affect the other less the
farther away from each other they are (like in "Avalon", Demona says they need to
put some distance between them). Is there is a distance beyond which if
one of them was attacked or killed the other wouldn't be affected?
Thanks for your time!
1) I don't recall the thud, but it might have been the result
of a rock or something hitting the soft dirt. It wasn't the Archmage.
2) It was all an illusion of Puck's.
3) Killed, no. They are destined to die at each other's hands.
But yes, the pain thing decreases the farther apart they are.
(GDW / 3-17-98)
Heh heh. Oh, I forgot my number two on the last message. So here it
is.
#2) Oberons wording was that Puck was eternally banished from Avalon.
Since his wording wasn't something like "Eternal protector of
Alexander"
would Puck eventually be able to get his powers back? Thanx.
2) He hasn't lost his powers. And Puck is a Trickster. But a trick
involves more than just ignoring specific intent. See POSESSION for an
example of the Puck at work under his restrictions.
(GDW / 3-16-98)
Mr. Greg Wiesman. Its an honor if you get to read this. I first have a
couple questions. *makes a scroll appear from thin air* Okay what have
we here.....
1) Where do you get your references to the almighty Trickster Puck?
Or more specifically can you list your sources of material if you've indeed
found any? (besides Midsummers and Pooks Hill)
3) According to past references I've found, Puck was the biological
offspring of Oberon and a Maiden. Is this also true in the Gargoyles
universe?
4) Oh yes. Does Puck know more than he lets on too? We all know he's
actually very mischievous, but he always seems to be in the middle of
everything.
5) Is there any way to contact you besides this infernal message board
where if you say something wrong you might not even get heard?.... and in
continuity with your one worded answers.
6) How would we get in touch?
7)a)Can you tell us your loyal followers how Demona first met
Puck/Owen (not sure which) b)Will you with this response?
And last but not least.
8) a)What characters shall be in the Gargoyles movie? Is it just
going to be the basic plot of say the episodes Awakening?
Well thats about it. And if you can in ANY way contact me about
references of Puck, please do so. Anyone in fact who reads this. My E-mails
Puck40@aol.com or RobinGoodfellow@Mailcity.com
1) Mostly, I got him from Midsummers and a lot of books about that
play. I don't recall reading any specific independent source.
2) You didn't ask a #2.
3) No.
4) He'd have to, since he lets on to so little. But honestly, I 'm not
sure what you mean.
5) Generally, no. Keep in mind, I'm intentionally isolating myself to
protect myself legally. Sorry, but I really don't feel I have any other
choice. "If you say something wrong" I don't want to be exposed to it,
because I don't want to see you across a courtroom five years down the
road. (And don't tell me that wouldn't happen, because though it may be
true with you, I can't begin to try and evaluate who it might or might
not apply to. Disney's already been sued twice over Gargoyles. I don't
need any more hassles.) As to the one word answers, that depends on how
rushed I am and on how free I feel with information. It's not like I'm
doing it by accident. Having said all that, I occassionally stop by the
COMMENT ROOM, and on even rarer occasions, I stop by the CHAT ROOM. I
also hope to attend this summer's GATHERING in NYC, if we can work out
the details. Maybe I'll talk to you there.
6) See above.
7) Not now.
8) I have almost no info on the Gargoyles Movie. Last I was told
(literally months ago) the movie would feature Goliath and Elisa. I
don't know the story, and I don't know if they've even got a script.
(GDW / 3-16-98)
dOne or two quick questions, after "The Gathering" is Owen allowed to set
foot on Avalon? I know that Puck is not, but does that restriction apply to
both personas?
I don't think Oberon makes those kind of subtle distinctions.
Puck, i.e. Owen, might consider it a loophole and attempt it (whereas
Puck as himself is magically restrained from even the attempt), but if
he got caught, I'd hate to be in his shoes. (GDW / 3-16-98)
Hi Greg. I saw an episode of the Men In Black cartoon written by you
yesterday (11.10.98) (hopefully, it WAS you and not someone by the
same name) and I'm glad we can see you get into other stuff while Gargs is
on the backburner. So that's the topic of my questions..
1) What other shows did you write for? (including previous eps of MiB
if any)
2) Are you planning to write more eps of MiB or any other show for
that matter?
3) How DID you get to write for MiB anyway? Do they just take scripts
from anyone who wants to write them, or is it because Frank Paur was the
director, or what?
4) I know you're not supposed to read fanfic or stuff with other ideas
and suggestions in it, so do you go to pages that have only stuff from the
shows? Like screenshots, episode synopsis, and so on.
That's all I can think of for now.
1. I wrote one Men in Black for its first season. I just finished
another for its second. I've also written an episode of Disney's
Hercules series. Before that, I wrote and produced on Gargoyles and
Goliath Chronicles. Before that I was an executive. I story edited
the last four DuckTales episodes. A long time before that, before I
was really in the industry, I co-wrote an episode of Jem & The
Holograms. Mostly, in those days, I wrote and edited comic books.
2. See above.
3. My agent helped get me the first job, but mostly it comes from the
long-standing relationship I have with Duane Capizzi, the
Producer/Story Editor on that show. Duane and I worked together on
Gummi Bears, Talespin, Darkwing Duck and especially on the wonderful
but ill-fated original development for BONKERS. Frank didn't know I
was writing the script until after I had gotten the gig, but he really
did well by it in board.
4. I don't surf that much. I've seen a few pages, here and there.
(GDW / 3-4-98)
Is Desdemona directly related to Brooklyn?
Not that I know of.
(GDW / 3-4-98)
Hi,
1. Any new news on the Gargoyle movie?
2. You said that by the time Future Tense took place Xanatos would be
dead. This, I take it, means Xanatos will not become immortal, right? (darn)
3. Future Tense takes place in the year 2158 (right?) was there any
reason why you chose this date (significance?)?
4. Who or what is/are the Angels? What is the name of the force they
fight against?
5. Elisa's sister goes to Arizona State (their football team sucks.
Huskers #1) besides the events in Cloud Fathersis there any reason for
this choice?
6. Do you watch College football? Who is your favorite team? (Sorry
about this question but I'm hyped about Nebraska's National Championship and
the fact that I got an A in chemistry)
7. What was Xanatos' mother's name, what year did she die?
8. What country did Xanatos' father come from?
1. No. At the moment, they're not returning my phone calls. Maybe
they're busy.
2. In my opinion, his character is dependent on his mortality. Just
as Goliath's is dependent on his Gargoylity, and Elisa's dependent on
her humanity.
3. Yes.
4. Huh?
5. I knew I wanted her at a Southwest school (reflecting her father's
heritage) and picked the state of Arizona at semi-random in "Deadly
Force," the first episode in which Beth is mentioned. I was probably
influenced by the mystery novels of Tony Hillerman. I think either
Lydia or Brynne must have chosen Flagstaff as the actual location for
the campus.
6. These days I almost never watch college football. If I do, I root
for STANFORD first, UCLA second and USC third. After that, I lose
interest. I'm really more of a Major League Baseball type of guy.
7. Ask me some other time.
8. Greece.
(GDW / 3-4-98)
Hi, Greg!
1) Does Servarius know that Demona is Dominique Destine?
2) What does the title "The Reckoning" mean?
3) Who are Titania's parents?
4) Who are Puck's parents?
5) Who was ruler before Mab (Oberon's mom)?
6) What impact, if any, did Demona have on Xanatos' decision to awaken
Goliath and the clan?
1. Maybe. Working with Thailog and Demona during that whole "The
Reckoning" period, he might have found out. Maybe.
2. Look it up in a dictionary. It's pretty self-explanatory. A
final calling to accounts so to speak.
3. Don't know yet.
4. Not saying now.
5. Don't know if there was a ruler before Mab.
6. She told him her story and how the Gargoyles EN FORCE would be of
use to him.
(GDW / 3-4-98)
Hello, Mr. Weisman. Thank you again for this opportunity.
Before I begin with my questions, I'd just like to mention that
I saw the episode of MiB you'd written, and I thought it was quite good,
definitely one of the better episodes so far. Now, on to the questions...
1) What is Brendan's last name?
2) What is Taro's full name?
3) What is the name of Nokkar's alien race?
4) Is there a 'official' name for Xanatos's lightweight exoframe
(the one in
"Eye Of The Beholder" and "Double Jeopardy")?
5) After 'TimeDancer,' what would've been done with the Phoenix
Gate?
6) What are the names of some of the other alien races involved
in Nokkar's people's war with the SpaceSpawn?
7) In the Gargoyles universe, who created the Phoenix Gate?
8) What was the intergalactic war begun over?
9) Are Boudicca and Bronx related?
10) Would we have possibly seen the Sasquatch, Yeti, Bigfoot, or
the like in the series?
11) Would New Olympus be known to the human world in 2158?
12) In the Gargoyles universe, who created the Cauldron of Life?
13) In the Gargoyles universe, who created the Eye of Odin?
14) During TimeDancer, would there have been journeys to
prehistoric times, or the future beyond 2158?
15) After TimeDancer, would Brooklyn and family have stayed in
New York with the Manhattan Clan?
Well, I think that's already enough. Thanks again!
1. I don't know yet.
2. Ditto.
3. Double ditto.
4. Lightweight Exo-frame?
5. Eventually it would have started its journey from scratch --
part of an unending loop.
6. Don't know yet.
7. I did.
8. Don't know yet.
9. They may be distant cousins.
10. Yeti for sure. The others... eventually, probably.
11. Yes.
12. Michael Reaves, I think.
13. Patrick Gilmore, then of Disney Interactive, I think. (I
know, I know, I'm being a smartass. It's Odin's eye. His parents, I
guess.)
14. Not the future beyond 2158. But sure, we'd have to do some
dinosaur action.
15. Yep. (GDW / 2-23-98)
Sorry, I have a few more questions...
1) What would have prompted Queen Mab to return?
2) Is Vinnie's last name Barbarino or Gregarino? I've heard both
used.
3) Was the spell on Goliath (from "Temptation") removed, or
circumvented? If it was only circumvented, could it be activated again somehow?
1) Escape.
2) Vinnie Barbarino is a character from "WELCOME BACK, KOTTER."
Gregarino is a joke name I came up with. At the moment, Vinnie has no
official last name, though I might go with Gregarino if I couldn't
come up with something I liked better.
3) It was circumvented, which means that it could in theory be
reactivated. But not easily. (GDW / 2-23-98)
Oh, yeah, on more thing. Who is your favorite, all time,
bestest of the best, you just think he/she/it ROCKS, character? Your favorite
of the fave? And why? :P Thank you!
Check the archives. I've answered this in detail.
(GDW / 2-23-98)
Hello, Mr. Weisman!!!! One thing has been bugging me.
a)...Is the Isle of Avalon the only place where Fey/Fae call their
homeland...or are there any other places...the Isle of Avalon acts as a
person, If Avalon felt that its current Lord was going put it(the Isle) in
Jeopardy or the earth, do you think it will give him more power to do so...or like teach
him..Do you see what i am getting at...does Avalon have a right to say what
should or shouldnt be done...Or does it always even through the dreadest
times have to listen to her(Avalon) so-called Lord??? Im sorry if this is
confusing...its just that I am intrigued by this isle!
b) if you made a series spin-off would one be off Avalon
and its contents? ThanX!
Avalon is HOME. Homebase. But obviously some of Oberon's
Children have their own local set-ups.
I never said Avalon was a person, per se. It's not that
objective a concept.
I believe Avalon works better in small doses, so there was no
specific Avalon spin-off planned.
(GDW / 2-23-98)
1. Will there be anymore Gargoyle cartoons?
2. And if so when?
3. If not, why?
4. If there will be any new seasons will they feature my
main favorite character, Puck? (I really want some more Gargoyle cartoons,
please.)
1. I hope so, but...
2. ...None are currently planned.
3. Disney doesn't see the profit in it, I guess.
4. Puck would have his appearances.
(And I'd like more too, please.)
(GDW / 2-23-98)
Dear Greg,
First let me say right off the bat, thank you for helping to
create what I believe is one of the best shows ever to hit TV! :) You can
tell that to ANYONE else involved in making Gargoyles, too.
All of you deserve a giant KUDOS for your hard work! Okay, now
onto the questions!
1. Gargoyles is now out of production, right? So, technically,
aren't you out from under contract and could therefore read fanfic? Just
curious... don't worry, I have asked no questions regaurding any stories
that have been posted! :)
2. Were there any plans to expand the relationship between Puck
and "the royalty" (Oberon and/or Titania) into something more than a Lord
and servant relationship? This seems to be something many Garg fans
ponder...
3. How did the idea to use Shakespeare characters come to be?
4. Why was only first season released on video?
5. Were there any plans to devise a way to get Puck back his
powers and rights to Avalon?
6. Were any of the visions generated in "Future Tense" going to
be brought into the plot a little at a time?
7. Have you figured out that I am a HUGE Puck fan yet? :)
Okay, I think that's it! Thanks for taking the time to read and
respond to this! Best wishes!
Thanks.
1. I've explained this a LOT. My contract with Disney was
NEVER what precluded me from reading fanfic. I don't read fanfic in
order to protect MYSELF from frivolous legal suits.
2. I'm not sure what you mean.
3. I love Shakespeare. Macbeth seemed ideal. The rest
followed suit.
4. The videos didn't sell enough to encourage the Home Video
division to release the second season.
5. Nope. I like his predicament.
6. Some already have been. Others never would. Others might.
7. Uh, sure.
(GDW / 2-23-98)
Heya, Greg! I'm 14 and started watching your show in 6th grade. My first
thought: Hey, this show rocks! It beats Power Rangers! (I've hated that
show with a vengeance since I was like 9 years old). Gargoyles has this
whole family theme that's really heartwarming but doesn't have a mushy
feeling that is real sickening. Okay, here's the questions:
1) How old is Puck, both numeroligically and in human years? (If you don't
know exactly, can you give me a close estimate?)
2) I got confused over the whole Coldstone eps. Who is that bad guy,
Coldsteel? Was he originally a gargoyle killed in the Wyvern
massacre?
3) who are these Desdemona and Iago everyone's talking about in this
archive?
4) Was Lex supposed to have a girl by show's end?
5) I dunno if this is a little sacriligious tying the little guy down,
but ever considered anyone for Puck/Owen? (Sorry, just had to ask that).
What was his own social life like in the past? (I know that must be a
little broad since he must be ancient by now, but gimmesome main pointers,
pleasey?)
6) Is Puck even remotely sad about the whole permanent exile and
stripping of his powers? He doesn't show it. Then again, I guess after losing
his magical rights, he wouldn't want to lose face by breaking down in
front of Daddy O.
7) Aren't cars, planes, helicopters, ect, ect made of iron, along with
tons of modern day technological stuff? So how come Anatstasia and
especially Owen don't seem to looked all that fazed whenever they're around
something that's made of iron (i.e. Owen near limo, piloting chopper...).
8) Is it true there's a Gargoyle's movie coming out? Do you have
anything to do with it?
9) How'd you guys come up with the gargoyles idea? It's so original.
Were you all just sitting around and all of a sudden POOF or did you get an
idea and then sell it to Disney, or Buena Vista, or whatever (y'know, all
this legal stuff is confusing)?
10) Will Oberon ever consider lightening or lifting Puck's sentence?
*looking hopeful*
11) Are Fox and Alexander Xanatos immortal (or at least have longer
lifespans by a few centuries) because they're of Fey blood?
12) What happens to Puck after he's done training Alexander and after
Xanatos dies? He's not technically under contract, then, right? So
what happens to him?
13) Did Titania know (or at least get a good idea) that Oberon would
give Puck the boot in the Gathering eps? She didn't look all that shocked
when Oberon passed the sentence.
14) What'd she whisper in Fox's ear at the end of the Gathering
anyway?!?
15) Why was Oberon so darn strict in the Gathering? He exiled Puck
and took away his right to do magic. Why was he so ... harsh?
That's all the Q's I got for now. I'll write back if I think of
something :) Thanks for your time, almighty Greg!
Hey, Aerie. Good to know we had at least one fan who was within the
target age group.
1) He's pretty old. Over five hundred years at least. Honestly,
though, I'm not sure.
2) Yep. A rival for Coldfire's affections, who tried to get
Coldstone out of the way by tricking him into a fight with Goliath.
3) Desdemona is another name for Coldfire. Iago is another name for
Coldsteel. They were never used in the body of the show, but we used
them in the credits to identify the actors who supplied their voices.
4) By which show's end?
5) I had and have plans for Owen and Puck. Not gonna reveal them
here though.
6) Yes. As you may have noticed, he tried to protest, but it was
clearly futile, so he reverted to the ever-stoic Owen.
7) In human form, iron's no more dangerous to them then it is to us.
Besides, it doesn't give off radiation or anything.
8) It's true there's a film in development. I'm officially attached
as a co-producer, but I haven't had much luck getting info about the film, let
alone contributing to it.
9) I worked for Disney. Someone came up with the idea to do a show
about Gargoyles and my team and I ran with it. (It's more complex than
that. Involves Gummi Bears and lots of other stuff. Check the archives for
a more complete answer.)
10) Anything's possible. Oberon isn't exactly Mr. Consistency.
11) Maybe. Maybe not.
12) Damn good question.
13) I'd say she had a premonition or at least a healthy dose of
intuition.
14) What do you think she whispered?
15) He felt abused and betrayed. Considering his orignal intentions,
I think everyone got off easy. (GDW / 2-10-98)
Hi Greg For some reason, I really related to the Magus, and was wondering
some things about him! In a former question, someone asked if Magus was
Magus real name, to which you replied "No" I was wondering what it is, and
myabe if you could supply some backround about him, that hasn't been given
before, like his name, some stories about his schooling in the art of magic,
why he didnt try and find another teacher etc maybe some stories about him
when he was going to King Kenneth's land with the princess or some stories
about adventures on the island On another note, How did Tom cast the spell
to return from Avalon? He, to the best of my knowledge, ad no training in
magic, and there was no conduit, like Magus' Grimoum, or source like Avalon,
for him to draw off of. If Magus lost his magic, surely Tom wouldnt have
had any. Also, if Magus knew that he could tap Avalon for power, why didnt
he try before, to a lesser extent so he could wield it properly? Did Magus
have any of Oberons childrens blood in him? ( like his greandfather or
father was 1/2 or something)? I ask this because the Wierd Sisters, in
Avalon part 1 after Magus told them to stand aside,told him he should have
known better than that, like he should have known Avalon was closed off, and
especially that he shouldnt have brought human magic to the island. Also,
Avalon aided him in defeating one of her own children, but perhaps that was
because Oberon didnt want them there yet? Or was it because he was partly of
avalon? If you wouldnt mind. instead of trying to answer my question into
Magus' history, if you wouldnt mind making a txt file into a story of sorts
that would be more than appreciated. Im a big fan of the series, and was
thourghly dissapointed with its cancellation Thanks for your time!
In the future, please number your questions.
The Magus is one of my favorites too. But this isn't the forum for me to
deliver a novel-length response on his history. And I'm definitely not
making any text files. Keep in mind, this is a Q&A location. I get paid
to write stories. (I know that doesn't sound very altruistic, but neither is
requesting me to do a lot of work without compensation.)
Tom had centuries to learn one or two simple spells from the Magus that would
allow him to travel back and forth from Avalon.
The Magus may have tried using Avalon's magic before as an experiment here or
there, but he generally met with little success. Fortunately, there was no
crisis to require a greater need (or effort) until the Archmage showed up.
The Magus is fully human. (GDW/1-27-98)
Please don't answer some of the questions that would reveal way too much
about the Gargoyles universe, if you tell us everything, there will be
little interest left in the show. Instead, maybey you could drop clues
that only somone clever intelligent and observant could figure out.
Thanx, Jon
Most of the time that's what I try to do. But like a lottery, I think it
keeps things exciting if occasionally and out of the blue I reveal a tidbit
of knowledge. For example, there's no way anyone could have guessed that
Brooklyn's son's name was Nashville. So at some point I either reveal it or
not. Now, revealing the reason behind the name isn't the same thing. But
someone clever, intelligent and observant could probably figure it out.
(GDW/1-27-98)
Hello again, I was watching the show today (I'm proud to say I have every
one with the exception of TGC on tape :) and I came up with a batch of new
Q's: 1a) In "Ill met by Moonlight" Titania says to Oberon "we'll reduce your
strength to that of a child's" or something like that. Does a fay's power
increase until adulthood and stop, or does a fay become more powerful over
time? 1b) or, does power run in the family, passed down through the
generations? Is Oberon one of the most powerful just because, or is he from
a royal line? 2) Will Puck be around in the Future Tense timeline or will
Owen (and therefore Puck) be dead by then? You said in the archives that
Owen "resets" whenever Pucks changes back into him, so will Owen eventually
grow old and die because of Oberon's restriction, or will he always look the
same because he becomes Puck to teach Alexander? 3) Speaking of Future
Tense...why does Goliath care if Puck gives the gate to Oberon? After all,
the gate came from Avalon originally anyway, so what's wrong with Oberon
having it? Does Goliath just hate Oberon or was he pissed that Puck used
subtrefuge to try and get it? 4) Another Future Tense Q...when the Talon
soldiers come through the city, they smash a woman's cart and we see her
holding a photo of Chavez. Is this woman her daughter? Curious minds want
to know... 5) One more Future Tense, is it a coincidence that Alexander is
wearing Coyote's armor, or was it just a cool design the art people reused?
6)and completely unrelated, is Demona's headpiece fashioned after Goliath's
brow horns, sort of a token from their happier days, or does it match
whatever horns she may have underneath? Does she even have brow spines? If
both parents did, you'd think Angela would have them too, but she doesn't.
7)One more. In several episodes the major underlying theme seems to be the
corrupting power of the big city (Bushido, Mark of the Panther, maybe Dracon
as a character?). This was probably intentional, but I was just curious
what your views on this theme were. Well that's all for now, thank you and
everyone else who worked on Gargoyles for such a wonderful show! Though I
know you can't read the fanfic, TGS is wonderful, and I think its because
you managed in only 66 episodes to create an entire universe for our
imaginations to explore. I don't think words can express our gratitude, so
I'll just say thank you, for everything!
1a. Like most people, our abilities mature. Sometimes they continue to
mature. Sometimes they don't.
1b. That's not an either or scenario. Both.
2. Owen has a supporting role in 2158. Puck doesn't appear at all. You
can probably guess why.
3. We're mixing our future tenses here. Above, I assumed you were
discussing the proposed spin-off series. Here you seem to be talking
about the episode of the original series. Anyway, the Gate
is dangerous, and from Goliath's point of view, he'd rather no one used it.
4. Well, the whole thing is an illusion, but within the illusion, yes, that
was Maria's daughter. A little touch I threw in to add pathos, and help the
audience identify with an otherwise incidental character.
5. It's not Coyote's armor, though I see the thematic similarities, which
only makes sense.
6. Demona has some horns, similar to her tiara, though not exact.
7. I think your stretching, particularly by including Dracon. Both Dracon
and Elisa are New Yorkers born and bred. Doesn't prove anything. As to
Bushido, well sure the villain went off to the Big City, but we made a
point of saying that he had trouble learning the lessons of Bushido before
he ever left. And in Panther, Tea isn't corrupted by the big city at all.
She decides to go there and Fara gets her cursed because he wants her to
stick close to home. Again, the "Big City" is a neutral element. I don't
think life in a city is inherently more corrupt than out of one. Of course,
I grew up in Los Angeles, and I'm raising my kids here, so maybe I have to
think that. Anyway, I don't buy your logic on this one. (GDW/1-27-98)
Just thought of one more: Is the clocktower a real NY building?
Nope. Though there are some that look similar. (GDW/1-27-98)
Hello!! I have quite a few questions, so please bear with me. (If at all
possible!!) Last time my qusetions got scrapped, so I'll omit any that I
think caused a problem (1) Does Oberon's law of noninterference in human
affairs physically prevent the fae from interfering, or do they only risk
Oberon's wrath as a punishment? (2) "Where" is Avalon ? i.e. could it be
placed on a map? (3) Are gargoyle clans extended families or are they
communities of gargoyle who choose to live together (or both)? (4) How does
Coldsteel heal itself ? (5) As the coldtrio are in mechanical bodies, are
they physically immortal, (i.e. can they die of old age)? (6) If the bodies
of the coldtrio were destroyed, could they be brought back "on-line?" (7)
What are the biological ages of the clone clan? (8) Why do some of the
clones have structural differences, such as Hollywood's huge fangs and
underbite? (9)In City of Stone, the Wyrd Sisters said that MacBeth and
Demona share "pain and anguish", does this include emotional pain and
heartache? (10)Why was Elisa's mother in Nigeria? (11)Are Jade and
Turquesa still on Avalon? (12) If the answer to No. 11 was yes, then where
do they live? (13)How did Mace Malone learn abouth the Illuminatti? (14)
Why was Jack Dane in the Witness Protection Program? (15) Would Lex
eventually have a mate/ (Any background info is appreciated!!) Thanks for
your time. Sorry if I repeated any questions already asked!!
1. Both.
2. Depends on who made the map.
3. Both. I'm getting deja vu here. Are you sure your questions got
scrapped? I feel like I've answered all of these. Check the archives,
please.
4 - 15. Yeah, I've definitely answered these. Check out the archives, or
else maybe you were impatient, re-asking questions before we had a chance to
post the answers. (GDW/1-27-98)
How old is the oldest fey, I don't need specific years, you can round it to
the nearest hundred or so?
Old.(GDW/1-27-98)
Dear Mr. Weisman, First of all, I'd like to thank you sooooo much for
taking your time to answer questions for all your fans! Gargoyles is a great
show, and opens up many new areas of imagination. I just have a couple of
questions. I'm sorry if they've been asked before! :) 1. In another
question, I heard someone mention Neil Gaiman. He is one of my absolute
favorite authors! Are you familiar with his works? 2. I've heard a bunch of
things about someone named Mab. Who exactly is she, just to clarify it? 3.
I don't know if you've answered this before, but who would be your favorite
character? Thank you so much! It's really great that you and Gorebash have
set this thing up!
1. I read Sandman.
2. Read Shakespeare's ROMEO & JULIET. Mercutio has a whole monologue about
Queen Mab. That's where I learned about her. In the Gargoyles Universe, she
is also Oberon's mother. At least she is in my mind.
3. See the archives.

I just found out a couple of weeks ago that Gargoyles is not cancled on the
USA ACTION EXTREME TEAM! Its on at 7:00 in the morning. can you belive
that?
Uh, sure, why not?

Hi Greg! Once again, thanks for taking the time to answer the questions of
a humble fan. I have three this time, numbered for your convenience :)
1) How long was Oberon the ruler of the fey (after Mab ceased to be ruler)
before he imposed the thousand year banishment? 2) I know you sort of
answered this one, but I will rephrase it. The question is: who is naught?
Is he just ment to be an "anybody" among the children, or did you have more
plans for him? 3) At what point in the series did Xanatos learn of
Owen's true identity? If he found out right at the beginning, why did he
not ask for Pucks help with some of the jams he got in? Pride? Again,
thank you for answering my questions, and thank you in a broader sense for
the Gargoyles themselves. Rarly has a show had the depth and maturity to
impress me the way Gargoyles did. Kudos to you.
1. I haven't worked that out yet.
2. Plans. Plans. Plans.
3. Before you met him. And he couldn't get Puck's help, he had traded that
opportunity for a lifetime of service from Owen. So he didn't ask until the
Gathering, when the stakes were so high and things seemed so grim that he
felt he HAD to ask. And Owen said no. But then he changed his mind.
