Hi Greg! I am a long-time fan of both Gargoyles and Young Justice. I am also a literature grad student so I thoroughly appreciate a lot of your literary references in both works :)
One reference that has always somewhat confused me is all the references to the Rime of The Ancient Mariner (Forager refers to his glamour charm as an albatross around his neck, Conner reads it in season two, etc.) as it is a bit obscure of a work. I guess I just wanted to know if there was any significance to these references. Is it just a book you liked, so you included it? Is it just a running joke? Is it some secret third thing?
