Chris writes...
Would Demona keep on trying to kill Goliath and the others, if doing so would ruin her relationship with Angela?
Would she be willing to sacrifice her relationship with Angela if it meant accomplishing her goals?
Greg responds...
Demona has a knack for making her own life miserable. Not to mention the lives of those she most cares about. Beyond that, I'll leave these questions to your own imagination.
Chris writes...
What would Demona think of Alan Weisman's novel "The World Without Us"?
Greg responds...
I have no idea. Haven't read it myself. Never heard of it actually.
Theodore writes...
Would you say that it was Demona's fault for creating the Hunter, since it was she who mutilated the young boy's face? I've heard that the boy had an inner darkness inside him, but didn't Demona bring it to the surface by attacking him that day?
Greg responds...
Blame to go around.
Walter writes...
Would Demona kill Angela if it meant the achievement of her goal, or would that be too much even for her?
Greg responds...
What do you think?

Polgara writes...
I´ve notice Hudson has never called Demona by name when he is speaking directly to her, why is that?

Vinnie visits family.
Derek writes...
Why didn't Thailog just make a clone of Demona? He's not attracted to Elisa, you made it clear Goliath and Elisa was more spiritual. Was he just looking to piss Demona off?
Greg responds...
Even assuming that Goliath is not physically attracted to Elisa -- which is NOT something I've "made clear" as I disagree with that premise -- what does that have to do with Thailog?
But, yeah, pissing Demona off was a bonus.
Derek writes...
Why didn't Demona mate with any other Gargoyles over the past 1000 years? She certainly encountered some, if she really thought her race was going extinct wouldn't she be trying to increase the population?
Greg responds...
Cuz after all, she's so easy to get along with...
Gargoyles mate for life. It's not easy for them to shift affections, and Demona never stopped feeling (her definition of) love for Goliath.
But I haven't covered all the 1000 years yet, so I'm not revealing all that did or didn't happen over that time at THIS time.
Derek writes...
Will we ever see the biological parents of Demona, Goliath, Lexington or Brooklyn in the comics in Flashbacks?
Greg responds...
Sure. But you might not know it, as it's of no moment to these characters. If I hadn't let it slip that Hudson was Broadway's bio-dad, would you have guessed, known or cared?
Derek writes...
If Demona had of actually been put under the Magus's spell like the others and they somehow managed to be revived, How exactly do you think she would have reacted? would the clan have accepted her or would they have exiled her? Could she have been saved by Goliath, Do you think she would start her war on humanity in the modern nights too?
Greg responds...
I'm not interested in hypotheticals. Feel free to use your own imagination though.
Derek writes...
Does Demona have any interest in any of the Clones? They could have been a new clan for her even Delilah after Thailog was presumed dead why did she abandon them so quickly?
Greg responds...
Demona is, ironically, quick to declare things, people, plans, etc. a lost cause.
Reckoning writes...
I just saw the reckoning episode again, and a few questions come out.
Fang said to Demona that he "always respect her as a fellow inmate" Is that true? What were his true feelings for her. I imagine they had some fights...having in count the personallities of the two of them...
Did Demona know the mutates before she saw them in the laberynt?
What did she think about them? Would they talk when they were guarding her? Did she speak with anyone besides Angela?
Did she gain weight after so many days of not doing any exercise?? >:I
I have to stop drinking. Thks for your attention Greg :)
Greg responds...
1. I'll leave that to your imagination.
2. Not well.
3. I'll leave that to your imagination.
4. I refuse to comment (because I like my spleen).
Todd Jensen writes...
It's been said that some of the worst hatemongers are often closely connected to the very groups that they hate (as in, some of the most virulent Jew-haters had Jewish parents or grandparents). Did you and the other members of the production team have this in mind when you came up with the idea of Demona regularly turning into a human after "The Mirror", as the "Gargoyles" equivalent of this concept?
Greg responds...
It doesn't take research to appreciate the irony of the situation.
Trickster Puck writes...
What's the deal with Demona's tiara?
She has managed to hang on to it for a thousand years.
Is it magic?
Greg responds...
No, but it fits well.
David writes...
You've said before that Macbeth has had other loves between Gruoch and Domique Destine, but let me ask, is Gruoch still his true love? What I mean is has he ever loved another woman as much as her? Has he ever loved someone more? Does he still miss her and think of her on a regular basis? It seemed to me given his actions in City of Stone that he may have been so in love with her that he would, after a thousand years, stil carry a torch for her.
Also, I know you will probably not answer if Macbeth has had any other children, but if he capable of doing so? What about Demona?
Thank you for taking the time ti answer my questions, and for never giving up on Gargoyles. The new comic is fantastic, and I hope it goes on for many years to come.
Greg responds...
I think Macbeth does still carry a torch for Gruoch.
I see no reason why he or Demona would not be physically capable of having kids.
