You said that the scenario in Bushido was purposely similar to that surrounding the Wyvern massacre so was the scenario of the two were panthers purposely similar to MacBeth's and Demona's scenario which is a fay giving mortals extraordinary power for a price?

Are the were-panthers and Natsilane also suppose to be weapons of war like Demona and MacBeth?

How did Cuchulain survive to the modern world?

Did you plan to have any characters that we meet in the mist of avalon episodes get knighted by King Arthur?

when Rory/Cuchalin said, "I had a dog like him once." (talking about Bronx) did he mean that the ancient Cuchalin had a garg beast or just an ordinary dog that was a loyal friend and warrior like Bronx is? sorry if you've been asked this before, but i couldn't find it in the archives...

Hi Greg,

In "Walkabout," you state that David and Fox really were going to follow through with the Matrix reshaping the planet. I find that pretty jaw-dropping, even if it was to be a selective reshaping. They'd have to basically take over the world in order to do it. Not like they can just do it here or there and go about their business. But onto the specific questions:

1) What in particular did David and Fox have in mind for the world's reshaping? What did they see wrong with it that they sought to righten, or alter in their favor, with the Matrix?

2) How does this goal mesh with Xanatos' pre-established personality? I thought he was already comfortable in the world as it was. And why not? Free trade had evidently benefited him quite well. He was probably the most powerful, non-governmental man on the planet, no? X doesn't seem like the type to rule an empire, like in "Future Tense" (which was a tip-off as to the falsehood of Puck's dream). Rather, he seems to simply want control and power, but in a, well, down-to-earth way.

3) Did Anastasia care?

4) Does Xanatos still have the Matrix technology?

Greg,
Hey a few more questions.
1) Who is Kai's mate?
2) By the time of the Journey how old is Kai biologically?
3) How many children have Kai and his mate produced? And what years did they hatch?
4) Have Yama and Sora had a child yet?

Thanks again

Jim R.'s last question made me think of one myself. in "Heritage" were the totem poles at least partially inspired by gargoyles or just as a sign of the people's animal ancestors as Natsilane said, after all, at that point he certaintly didn't know much about the gargs or even the heritage of himself and his people. he didn't really believe any of it...

when Derek was mutated into a panther like mutate did you have "Mark of the Panther" in mind? i found it really great that Diane was telling this story about humans turning into panthers, which is kinda what happened to her son, and then is still surprised when the were-panthers change, and again has seen Derek as a pseudo-gargoyle and still is shocked by the gargoyles in Nigeria with Elisa!

when Rabbi Lowe created the Golem did he have alot of inspirations from gargs? i realize the Golem is made of clay, but its sorta like stone and his mission is to protect Prague. i also assume that Prague never had a garg clan since they needed the Golem in the first place, but did the Rabbi see garg clans in other cities and decide that Prague needed that sort of protection, thus the Golem? i'm attempting to ask these questions without appearing to submit ideas, sorry if i was unsuccessful.

is the technology that allows the Iago and Desdemona robots to heal have anything to do with the Matrix?

Which of the series would Rory Dugan be making appearances in?

LSZ writes...

Did Rory Dugan's father know his son was Cuchullain? Or if he didn't, did he know there was something supernaturally odd about Rory?

Ambrosia writes...

I was just driving around yesterday and something came to me that I thought I'd ask you.
In Sentinel, Elisa appears to be kidnapped by this huge... *monster* from the perspective of the doctor and Duane and co. No doubt all sorts of awful thoughts are running through their minds so when they find her again at the end of the episode, I'm sure they really want some answers. So when Elisa suggested to Nokkar that these people could be his new allies and he went off to talk with them, did Nokkar tell them the *whole* story? About who the gargoyles were and that he was the one who gave Elisa her amnesia? If they know about gargoyles now, they could be allies to the clan as well.
Thanks for your time! Happy Holidays!

1) How does the Matrix's consciousness/mind work? Is it the collective "mind" of all the nanites, or are some nanites assigned the function of being the "brain", and direct the actions of the rest of the nanites?

2) *Must* the nanites obey the collective mind/"brain-nanites", or is it in their capactity to work apart from it?

3) Did the nanites somehow fuse themselves *into* Dingo's body, or do they just form a suit of armor around him?

1) According to his pact with Anansi, was Fara Maku only able to transform a single person into a werepanther? (I'm wondering if there's a number restriction similar to the one for the panther queen and her children).

2) Since Tea didn't make a pact with Anansi, does she have the ability to turn anyone else into a werepanther?

3a) Will Fara and Tea have any children? b) Will the children also carry the werepanther "curse"?

4a) Anansi was obviously real in the Gargoyles Universe, but did the story of the Panther Queen also really happen? b) Would you say the panther queen was "sentient"? c) Would Oberon's non-interference law also apply to her, and if so, how was Anansi able to curse the Panther Queen without breaking the law?

5) Were either the panther queen or her son able to shift back and forth between human and panther forms, like Tea and Fara Maku?

6a) The panther queen and Fara were forced to hunt for Anansi to fulfill their end of the bargain. But what made him think that if he turned Goliath and company into werepanthers, that they would willingly hunt for him? b) How would he have been able to transform them against their will without breaking the non-interference law?

7) Do you have any specific plans involving werepanthers in future episodes?

Ed writes...

Did you have any further plans for the "WALKABOUT" Shaman?

Ed writes...

Would the coming of all these heroes in the modern age (Arthur, the were-panthers etc.) be for a specific reason, person or event that they are there to oppose, or for a less obvious reason?

Anonymous writes...

Is the reason Arthur was put on Avalon the same reason all these heroes have started appearing?

Todd Jensen writes...

A thought that I've had from time to time. In the Gargoyles Universe in the 1990's, a great many "ancient heroes" are being revived in various means all over the planet. Goliath and his clan are awakened from their stone sleep in New York after being trapped by the Magus's spell for a thousand years. King Arthur is awakened from his enchanted sleep on Avalon and returns to the modern world. The Golem is revived in Prague. Cuchulain is reborn as Rory Dugan. (And I could probably add one or two additional heroes who parallel the pattern if ones who are not quite of it - Natsilane finally accepts his destiny on Queen Florence Island, Griff is brought from the Battle of Britain to the 1990's by Goliath to later on join forces with King Arthur, Dingo and the Matrix join forces in Australia, Anansi creates two new werepanthers who, after becoming free of him, decide to become protectors in Nigeria, and the New Olympians at last decide to make contact with the outside world).

My question is: is there an "internal reason" for all these heroes being reawakened in the Gargoyles Universe at approximately the same time? I can guess at the "external reason" (more threads, to form a richer tapestry for the Gargoyles Universe and more stories), but did you develop an "internal reason" for it?

Was watching my tape of "Golem" recently, and found myself wondering about something in it for the first time. After Renard finishes the ritual that transfers his soul into the Golem's body, he tells Vogel to keep his original body safe, because they might need it later on. My question is: what was he planning on needing it for?

LSZ writes...

1) Would the Golem still be around by Future Gargoyles Series time-setting?
2) Would it have achieved sentience by that time?

My name is Jacob Rubinstein. I am the webmaster for The First Unoffical Site Of Sarah Douglas. She did a voice character in the episode of MIA from gargoyle. I was hoping that I could get a picture of her character so I could post it on my site. I have not seen that episode either. the toon disney channel plays it.. but it does't list what episode it is.

You mentioned in one of your most recent responses about the Rory/Cuchulain business reminding you of Thor as portrayed in Marvel Comics (and wanting to handle his transformation differently if you ever got to do Rory again). That part intrigued me because I'd been wondering for some time about the fact that there did seem to be a certain basic similarity between Rory/Cuchulain and Marvel's Thor (whom, I confess, I'm not that familiar with, but, because of my interest in Norse mythology, I did read up a fair amount on the Marvel Comics interpretation of the Norse myths). I did see the resemblance in the fact of a seemingly ordinary human transforming into a "real" mythological figure (Thor for Dr. Donald Blake, Cuchulain for Rory Dugan) through the use of a staff or cane that was really the traditional "magical weapon" of that figure (Mjolnir/the Gae Bolga). In your opinion, was there some influence there?
