For a 1000 years the gargoyles slept frozen in stone then in 1994 they awoke in Manhattan, New York...and after 2 years they were
frozen and locked away in the Disney vault for another 8 years. Finally, after years of begging Disney released the first season on DVD.
A year later Disney released the 1st half of the 2nd season on DVD. Whether or not the 2nd half of the 2nd season comes out on DVD is questionable.
Disney has its eyes on the property. They've licensed Creature Comics to do a comic book series with Gargoyles creator Greg Weisman as the writer. Disney has also now licensed Hot Topic to sell a Gargoyles T-shirt . This is the first new piece of Gargoyles memorabilia to be released in a long time.
If the comic, T-shirt, and currently available DVD's do well then another DVD release will happen and its very likely NEW EPISODES could be made to continue the series. The creator, Greg Weisman, would like to make more episodes and most of the original cast has expressed intrest in coming back to the show. DVD sales have brought back Family Guy, Futurama, and ECW. DVD sales could bring back this classic as well.
