We were extremely enthusiastic about this show and pitched it to Michael Eisner, Chairman of the Walt Disney Company.īut we still thought there was something in the notion, so we went back to the drawing board. Originally inspired by Disney's Adventures of the Gummi Bears, it started life as a comedy-adventure series about cute little multi-colored gargoyles (with names like Amp, Coco, Lassie and Ralph), who woke up in the late 20th Century to battle a comic villain (in the Captain Hook/Duke Igthorn-mode) named Xavier and his evil gargoyle henchwoman Demona. Hey there fans, Allow me to take you on a little journey…īack in 1991, my team and I at Walt Disney Television Animation, began developing a little show called GARGOYLES. To that end, Bleeding Cool has a letter from Greg Weisman to Gargoyles' fans, which he is sharing with us to share with you, looking at how it all began at Disney. So retailers are being encouraged to up their orders while they still can, and readers are being urged to let their comic book shop know that they would like a copy. The new Gargoyles comic book written by the show creator Greg Weisman and published through Dynamite Entertainment, is up for Final Order Cut-Off this weekend.
