I've always wanted to be able to create custome action figures but I have about as much artistic ability as Michael Bay does. :/ I did, however, once create a Brooklyn from Ice Storm Brooklyn and a no neck Brooklyn toy. I'll post a pic some time.

Great Figure, Greg!

These custom action figures are so cool. How much do they cost? I would really like to have figures of some certain characters, but I think they are incredibly expensive XD

Todd> Only thematically (possibly, since I haven't read Knight Life). It's set in Arthurian times, starting with the narrator (Viviana) as a slave in the court of Uther Pendragon. I think the intention is to connect Arthurian characters with individuals in modern American politics: Arthur based on George W Bush, Guenevere based on Hilary Clinton, etc. I haven't read enough yet to know how that's going to work, but Viviana's story is already intriguing.

I sympathise, but I think it's a little, how do I say this, a bit of burden. If you have the money great, you can go buy one of his books, but some people don't and so have to feel the guilt of not being able to help. I like to know if any of his fellow writers are helping out.

SUPERMORFF - Is there any connection between the Camelot Papers and Peter David's "Knight Life" trilogy which placed King Arthur in the modern world (and, in the first book, running for Mayor of New York)?

(I doubt that we'd have ever seen that in "Gargoyles", but King Arthur running for Mayor of New York in an election with the gargoyles as a major campaign issue does have some appeal. Actually, one of the things that most disappointed me about "Ransom" - apart from the much-discussed treatment of Fox, of course - was that it took a great idea for what could have been a series-long thread and dropped it after one episode.)

Comet> Yeah, seems likely that gargoyle feathers are a case of convergent evolution, but gargoyles have a lot of that. If you believe they're from Therapsids, then their wings (even the non-feathered ones) are from convergent evolution; if you think they're from Pterosaurs, then their lactation is from convergent evolution. Depending on when you think they diverged, hair might be from convergent evolution too.

I know the week is over soon, but I'll try to ask another interesting question. How do you think have the "feathers" of some Gargoyles evolved? Since I, and many others here, believe that Gargoyles are descendants of Therapsids, this is a valid question. We know that feathers evolved from scales, but Therapsids have no scales.
Even if you believe that Gargates evolved from Pterosaurs, which I don't believe anymore and never really did, feathers are not normal since Pterosaurs never evolved feathers.
I think that the Gargate feathers are totally different from what is known as bird feathers, a completely different structure that just resembles bird feathers but has nothing to do with them.
