Regarding the points raised by Sapphire and Todd regarding a 'Buffy' crossover: although I'm not massively well-versed in 'Buffy' stuff the biggest problem (and quite a big one at that) strikes me as the difference in views of good and evil. 'Buffy', as I see it, takes the footing that there's good and there'd bad, so you kill the bad guys and have a nice day. 'Gargoyles' always picked up on shades of grey though - 'there is good and evil in everybody' being, I suppose, the obvious quote. I don't know if this is misrepresenting 'Buffy' - or even 'Gargoyles'. Greg?

The only characters who strike me as really being evil for the sake of it are Jackal, Hyena, Wolf and maybe Iago. Demona is bad, but we saw her capable of goodness in 'THE RECKONING' and to an extent in 'CITY OF STONE'. Or at least we saw her reasoning. But even the above four characters seem evil by circumstance - Jackal and Hyena seem to be motivated by money and thrills, Wolf by action and the 'thrill of the hunt', and Iago by lust (love?) for Desdemona. But these aren't presented as evil simply because they're demons and that's what they do.

Greg, do you think there is a race that is innately evil?

Greg responds...

I don't, no.

The Buffy Universe has it both ways. They show plenty of well-meaning Demons and vamps, like Angel. Plenty of grey in the Buffyverse. But also plenty of pure evil. Pure good? Well, that's harder to find. Duller too.

Note to Sapphire about the "Gargoyles/Buffy" crossover possibility:

While my thoughts on this one probably count less than Greg's (he's the creator of the series; I'm just one of the fans), I do think that such a crossover, while in some ways more feasible than, say, "Gargoyles/Batman" or "Gargoyles/Superman", does have a few snags to be overcome. One is legal ownership (Disney owns "Gargoyles", WB "Buffy"). Another is geography (Buffy and Co. live on the West Coast, the gargoyles on the East Coast).

(Of course, there's no danger as yet of "Gargoyles Universe" vampires being incompatible with the Buffyverse, since all that we know about "Gargoyles Universe" vampires is that they're vulnerable to silver - Princess Katharine mentions this in "Ill Met By Moonlight" - which doesn't contradict any statements about vampires in "Buffy").

But as I said, I don't view such a crossover as something all that likely for the near future, myself.

Greg responds...

Not at all likely. But it might be fun to think about in a non-canon vein.

If you were to do any crossovers between Gargoyles and another show what will they be?

If Gargoyles were to come back I would like to see a Gargoyles/Buffy the Vampire Slayer crossover

Greg responds...

I answered this recently. Mostly, I think there are a lot of shows that would be fun in a parallel universe non-cannon way.

I love Buffy, but I'm not sure how the two universes would interact.

A rather silly question, admittedly, but:

What has been the impact of Goliath and his clan in Manhattan (particularly Bronx) on the pigeon population in the city?

Greg responds...

Little. They don't hunt them. After a while even a pigeon will learn that there are certain places (like the Clock Tower and the Castle) that you just don't want to hang at.

Semi-personal question for you Greg... Have you ever seen the series Robotech or Starblazers? If you have, what did you think?

Greg responds...

Is "Starblazers" the big battleship Yamamoto thing? cuz if so, I think decades ago I saw a tv movie version.

I've never seen Robotech.

Hi, this is something that just recently started bugging me. Did you and the others make up the term "By the Dragon"
just for a figure of expression or does it have historical reference? (Just one of those things that get stuck in your head and your not happy till you figure out why, you know?)

Greg responds...

I'm not saying.

Maybe.
