FRIENDS OF /R/GARGOYES:



One thousand years ago, superstition and the sword ruled. It was a time of darkness. It was a world of fear. It was the age of gargoyles. Stone by day, warriors by night, we were betrayed by the humans we had sworn to protect, frozen in stone by a magic spell for a thousand years. Now, here in Manhattan, the spell is broken, and we live again! We are defenders of the night!

We are GARGOYLES!

Naming Conventions of the London Clan?

Given that the London clan raises its young communally, how do the gargoyles receive their names? Is there a designated namer of each clan? Do they choose their own names at some point? Do the biological parents of each gargoyle name their child when it hatches?

I sent this question to Ask Greg years and years ago and his response was kind of snarky but he never actually gave me an answer. :p

What Demona will do in the final chapter

Demona has taken over the Eyrie Building in the last issue. I think she is gonna try and take the egg from the rookery. Of course that is the least of her priorities and she most likely doesn't even know about the egg. However, if she does she would do everything in her power to steal it. I'm not sure what's gonna happen in the final issue, but I think the egg will play a crucial role.

Does anyone have any headcanons involving the female commander person that worked with Bruno? The blond one? I'm trying to build up her character but I've literally got nothing. Spoilers cause I know they won't do anything with her now that she's gone

Is there material between end of season 2 and the recent Dynamite comics run?

I haven't watched the series in forever so I could be way out there but I don't remember any Brooklyn timetraveling, finding a partner or having a kid. I started reading The most recent Dynamite comics run thinking it picked up at the end of season 2 and now Im lost. I've put together that people don't like it but I don't even know when this stuff happened.

Has anyone painted a set of Goliath's closed wings to match Thailog?

I've run out of space in my display case. In order to free up some space I am thinking of buying an extra set of closed Goliath wings and painting them to match Thailog. Anyone got recomendations for particular paints to match the colors?

Am I missing any?

I do my best to try and hunt them down as soon as they come out, (even variants like the saga video game Goliath and silver falcon Broadway) but I feel like there were other figures I remember seeing. When I check the back of the boxes, it looks like I got them all. Are there new figures due for 2025? If so, when???

About Fox's Parents...

So thing I just realized. Fox is (spoiler warning for late season two), a daughter of Titania aka a halfling. Does this mean she is Immortal? I know it sounds weird, but it is possible. I'm a huge folklore, mythology, and fairy tale nerd and I've read some fairy tales where halflings are just the same as their parents, just with weaker magic.

I've also heard lots of fairy tales where the partner of a fae becomes Immortal just by being near them so long, and even the ones that don't specify Immortal always say they had very long lives (250 is the lowest named age I've heard). This brings up the question, would Xanatos be in that boat if Fox is Immortal?

And if you argue she isn't, wouldn't she still have the incredibly long life from being around Titania? If she does, does it spread, like Fox has a very long life thanks to Titania but because she's affected by the long life would it also mean Xanatos and Alex would also have strangely long lives? Alex is another can of worms because he is magical even though he's only a quarter fae, and don't even get me started on Puck!

I've never read the comics (don't sell them where I'm from), so is the answer in there and I just didn't know? I am so curious about this! On one hand, that family can definitely be shady so letting them be Immortal or live very long would be a strange choice, on the other hand Xanatos and Fox are my favorite characters and I think there would be something oddly sweet in the fact Xanatos spent so long looking for Immortality only to realize the reason he's had such a long life is because he loves someone.

How would you trim down the World Tour Arc?

World Tour was an interesting premise and expanded on the lore of the world. The biggest problem was it went on for too long, a total 16 episodes. There were great episodes such as Shadows of the Past, M.I.A., Grief, the Green, Bushido. There were also pretty bad ones Heritage, Coyotes, the New Olympians, the Hounds of Ulster. There were also episodes that had potential but weren't well written like Monsters, Golem, Sentinel.

How I would've changed it would be to trim it down to 8-10 episodes. I would also have added more break episodes focusing on the Clan dealing with Goliath and Eliza's absence, like Kingdom and Pendragon. They could've made an episode of Broadway being a detective with Bluestone, another focusing on Lex, and maybe one focusing on Hudson as well.

The best episodes were primarily the ones where they interacted with other Gargoyles Clans. I would've had episodes where they visit the Chinese Clan and the Korean Clan instead of some of the bad episodes. Monsters and New Olympians could've been better if they met the clans in those locations. I also would've done what the Green did and wrote more episodes showing the Manhattan Clan being referenced in a C-plot.

What's everyone else's opinion?

Anyone else feel like Greg struggles to develop the female characters once they're paired off with a guy?

Does it seem like the female characters almost completely stagnate in terms of development once they're coupled up or is it just me?

Angela's lack of development outside of her relationship with Broadway is frequently brought up. Katana's character we have yet to get any real sense of. Same goes for Coldfire. Fox started off as someone as tough and scheming as Xanatos, but now she's basically been relegated to milf. Even Elisa seems to be getting less stuff to do now that she and Goliath are officially a couple.

We don't even have any sense of what these characters' relationships to each other are like. I'd love to see Elisa and Angela interact more, for instance. I'd love to see Elisa interact with her family. I'd love to see Katana and Coldfire interact with literally anyone who isn't their mate.
