In the episode, "Future Tense," didn't it ever--disturb you looking back how Demona and Brooklyn were a couple? I mean, I see Goliath as a father to Brooklyn(even though G's only 10 garg years older). It wouldn't be right for a son to date his father's former wife/girlfriend. It would be downright disgusting. Yick! If my mother was single, I could never, EVER go out with a guy that has dated my her--even if he was around my age. Would you? And to make the B/D relationship concept/idea worse, Demona had been with THAILOG before she'd been with Brooklyn. Talk about hand-me-downs. Wow, that would be quite a marketing idea. I could just see it now: "Come on down and get the all-new 'Hand-Me-Down Demona' action figure! As a bonus you get to choose between Goliath, Thailog, or Brooklyn as her perspective "partner!" Heh heh! Demona would have a different outfit for which ever pairing you choose. Heh! Anyway, I'm just glad the whole thing was a dream-sequence scheme created by Puck and not something that would actually happen in "your" Gargoyle Universe.
Greg responds...
Well, first off it was intentionally done for shock value to freak Goliath (and our audience) out.
But to be fair, I don't see Goliath as a father figure to Brooklyn. I see him as an older brother.

Hi, Greg, I just wanna say I love the show and I was wondering something---Titania had Fox by the human, Renard, but did Oberon have any flings with human women? Did he have any children by them? Thanks!
Greg responds...
Merlin.

Hello Greg,
Ok, I was wondering if you could give me some advice about how to get The Gathering to come to my home town. I can't go to any of The Gatherings because I'm in college and well. School comes first. Anyway, ya think ya could? Well, bye.
Greg responds...
Where do you live?
(I applaud you for putting school first. But the Gathering is usually over a weekend in the summer, so I'm not clear why college alone is an impediment.)

"How many gargoyles does it take to screw in a lightbulb?"
I dunno, how many you got?
Greg responds...
And FINALLY, the contest begins. This goes on file til all the entries are in.

Fox
Did you plan for Fox to use her magic in future episodes?
Greg responds...
Potentially. (Today's new favorite word.)

New Wyvern clan
Why are the new Wyvern clan anti-technology? How did they get to QFL?
Greg responds...
Anti-technology may be a bit strong, but they emphasize a more traditional lifestyle without technology. Concessions are made when it's important, I suppose. That includes boarding transportation to an event important to the entire Gargoyle Nation.

London Clan
How rich is the London clan in 2198? What stuff do they sell in their stores in 2198?
Greg responds...
They're doing all right.
Magic stuff. Tourist stuff. Gargoyle merchandise. Etc.

I noticed something during a viewing of Vendettas. In the background, there's a building with a sign on it reading 'ELEXEM'.
Hmmm... Elexem. El-ex-em. L-X-M. LXM.
Now, what could that stand for? Lexington-Xanatos Matrix, perhaps? A hint, could it be, for the future? ;)
Greg responds...
ELEXEM STEEL CORPORATION. I'm aware of it. ;)

Puck
Since Puck didn¡¯t know of Demona¡¯s link with MacBeth how did he think she stayed alive for ten centuries?
Does Xanatos trust Puck/Owen entirely?
Greg responds...
It's possible to simply acknowledge ignorance. Speculating on what his incorrect theory might have been seems pointless.
As much as anyone.

Shaman&Dreamtime
The dreamtime in Australian legend was where life began and the abode of the gods so is this true in the gargoyles universe?
I just thought Goliath and Dingo¡¯s battle with Matrix is quite similar to shaman battles so was it suppose to be a Shaman battle?
Greg responds...
Shamanistic certainly. We did our best given our resources.

Karadigi
How did Fara Maku find Karadigi when nobody else found it?
Greg responds...
Maybe for once, Anansi wanted it to be found...
Gipdac writes...
1) What year was Maria Chavez born in?
2) What is the name of Maria Chavez's daughter?
3) What year was she born in?
4) Who was her father?
Greg responds...
1. Sorry. I don't have my timeline with me.
2. Ditto.
3. Ditto.
4. This has not been established.
Gipdac writes...
What is Fiona Canmores' twin brother/Charles Canmores father/Jason, Robyn, Jon's grandfather's name?
Greg responds...
Ugh. I'm fairly certain that Fiona's twin brother is named Jackson. But I've charted so many Canmores that I get confused sometimes, and I don't have that chart with me. I can't remember for sure. Ask me again later.
(But I'm pretty sure that Jackson is Fiona's twin brother. That Jackson was the father of Aron who was the father of Charles who was the father of Jason, Robyn & Jon. And I know Fiona's great-grandfather was Angus.)

Monmouths
What do the Monmouths think of gargoyles in 2198? Are they pro-gargoyle?
Greg responds...
Generally.
Anonymous writes...
Space-Spawn
Are there any political entities in 2198 in the Milky Way galaxy more powerful than the Space-Spawn Empire?
How did the Space-Spawn develop into the threat that they¡¯re?
Can the N¡¯kai take them down?
Greg responds...
It depends how you define "political entities" and "power".
Victory after victory.
They haven't.
Airportman writes...
OK, Greg--
Don't laugh, but I have an idea about how to get Gargoyles back on the air. Here's the lowdown:
I've been looking through the archives, specifically the "Bringing Gargoyles Back" one, and I've come across a lot of questions like, "What can I do to bring Gargoyles back?" The answer, howerver, is always the same: "Write letters to Disney, or Buena Vista and ask for the show back, or petition a DVD release of the series." We all know letters are more efficient than emails at these sorts of things, but idividual letters won't do anything compared to an organized, letter-writing campaign. I'm guessing that most of the time you tell people to write in, they don't, because they don't have a clue as to where to start. No address or anything. I suggest that we organize a campaign right here on ASK GREG. I suggest that a new addition to the main page be added, with information about addresses and people to whom we should write. If this info were advertized on the Station 8 Gargoyles page, I'm sure all these people who read ASK GREG would write in; I know I would. Maybe we could persuade some of the other Gargoyles fan pages to advertize it too. I think if we concentrate on a few key Disney and Buena Vista addresses, and absolutely flood them with mail, the message might get through. I'd be willing to help coordinate the campaign, but to be honest, I don't know where to begin. I know you're not in charge of designing the page or anything, but I'm guessing whoever is is probably reading this. Tell me what you think of this idea; I think it can work.
Greg responds...
Lots of thoughts -- in no particular order...
1. Thank you for caring about this. It means a lot to me.
2. Don't count on the notion that Gore reads all these questions. He may not have seen this suggestion. If you're serious and want his help, contact him directly.
3. An organized letter writing campaign would be terrific. I would start with a small focus, a small goal. Get the series released on DVD. I'd recommend contacting Walt Disney Television Animation, Walt Disney (or is it Buena Vista) Home Video and Michael Eisner.
4. ASK GREG is definitely not the site to organize this. Sorry. But if the campaign seems to have been generated by me or by something so obviously connected to me, then it won't look like it's coming from the fans. It'll look like I'm being self-serving. (Which I suppose I am in a way, but it's best if we keep that between us.)
5. Airportman, if you're interested in coordinating this effort, then I say go for it and thanks. You say you don't know where to begin, but you seem to have outlined many of the steps above. You need to figure out (a) what to say, (b) where to send the message and (c) how to publicize the campaign so that you get as many people involved as possible. Good luck.

You said that the Grimorum was brought from 995 to the 1970s by Brooklyn, Mary and Finella, and we already know the Phoenix Gate spent a thousand yeas, half with Goliath and half with Demona, but were you ever going to show the history of the Eye of Odin?
Care to give a brief synopsis of the history of the Eye?
Greg responds...
No. Check Norse mythology for its early history. But it's more fun and practical to chart these things in stories than just to write them out here.

Sevarius
What did Sevarius plan to do with the Loch Ness monster?
Greg responds...
Harvest, breed, create, etc.
Gipdac writes...
Were you ever planning to show on screen the original Magus casting the spell of humility on the gargoyles at the request of Caesar Augustus?
Maybe in TimeDancers?
Greg responds...
Exactly. Maybe. That is, I would have liked to. Depends on the S&P situation, probably.
Anonymous writes...
Trio
Is any of the trio alive in 2198? How about the trio¡¯s children?
Greg responds...
You mean not counting Brooklyn who TimeDanced there? No.
Not saying.
Cha-Cha writes...
1.Is the Coldtrio(Coldstone, Coldfire and Coldsteel) around in 2198?
2.If so, are they apart of the Manhattan Clan or the New Wyvern Clan?
3.Did you ever plan for them to return to their flesh-n-bone forms? By magic or otherwise?
Greg responds...
1. Not saying.
2. Not saying.
3. No.

World Wars
Did Macbeth fight in any of the world wars? If so which side?
Greg responds...
Yes, Macbeth has fought in many wars.
And certainly in WWII he was with the allies.
Anonymous writes...
MacBeth
How many identities does MacBeth have in 1996? Is he really a professor?
By 2198 does everyone know that he the Scottish king that Shakespeare wrote about?
Greg responds...
At least two that he keeps active.
He's a medievalist. Doesn't mean he teaches.
No.

Gargoyle Beasts
Were there any Gargoyle beasts at Wyvern besides Bronx? If so why didn¡¯t you show them?
Greg responds...
Yes.
There were limits as to how many soon-to-be-dead-gargoyles we had the time and money to design.

Lost clans
What ever happened to the Irish clan?
What ever happened to the Egyptian clan?
Greg responds...
Without getting into specifics for any particular clan, nearly EVERY now-defunct clan was defuncted by humans ala Wyvern.
