“He’s right, Mr. Xanatos. You’ve never looked more heroic.”
“…A momentary lapse, I assure you.”
the fact that we do not have more of this show, that was made in 1994-96 for children, is a criminal act that should be tried in the Hague
I don't know if you take requests, so feel free to decline, but, recently I wondered what Goliath from Gargoyles would look like if he was a big Cybertronian man like Optimus Prime. I really love the way you draw the transformers! You make them look so soft and cute, I just thought a Goliath turned Cybertronian would look amazing in your style.
Er, honestly I feel like Xanatos already beat me to it and that’s the Steel Clan…

Reality is stranger than fiction, they say, and he was inclined to agree. Life was indeed filled with one oddity after another.
He remembers a story from his youth.
A story, that was ancient he was told, passed from the old to young about a Clan Leader of their own who had taken a human as a mate.
They had a child-who they called, the meaning of an end in the old language. Someone who should never have been-
An abomination-
The child was cursed. And because of it, she cursed the land. Cursed her clan that lamented her existence, cursed the humans who condemned her, and cursed her parents who had birthed her into a world that knew only hate and fear.
They called her- Hillevi.
Goliath never took the story seriously; he knew the ploy by then. The line drawn in the sand, humans stayed on one side and they stayed on the other, they were never supposed to cross it.
Well, he had never been one for superstitions.

I’ve seen a couple of comments to the effect that, in “Awakening”, Goliath was the one who was treating Demona badly. They’re basically saying something along the lines of he was going behind her back and messing around with another woman. And I feel like I have to address this, because it’s a huge mischaracterization.
Goliath was not in any way cheating when he befriended Elisa. First of all, as of the end of “Awakening”, he had known Elisa for all of two or three days. Goliath is not the type (nor has he ever been characterized as the type) to jump into bed with someone he’s just met. We have Word of God that he’d fallen in love with Elisa as of “Deadly Force”, but it took Puck literally switching their species in “The Mirror” for him to even consciously realize those feelings, much less act on them. Goliath, at the point of his breakup with Demona, did not see Elisa as anything more than a friend.
Secondly, we’ve seen Goliath interacting with plenty of female characters, both human and gargoyle, without there being any hint of anything sexual going on, Princess Katharine and his rookery sister Desdemona being notable examples. While he and Elisa had real chemistry, and she was definitely harboring an attraction to him, the important thing is that neither one of them ever acted on those feelings until well after he and Demona had broken up.
Listen, if you think that even so much as talking to someone of the opposite sex is grounds for suspicion of cheating, then please, get therapy. Similarly, taking issue with your partner making friends with someone solely on the basis of which demographic they belong to, while otherwise knowing nothing whatsoever about that person as an individual, is a lot more indicative of bigotry than it is of any actual problem with the friendship.
Goliath didn’t dump Demona because he wanted to get his freak on with another woman, he broke up with her because she lied to him, blamed him for making the best decision he could after she’d withheld critical information, then pinned him to the floor and held a gun to his chest when he called her out on it. If you switched the characters’ pronouns, there wouldn’t be any question as to why this relationship fell apart. Whatever was or wasn’t going on between him and Elisa had nothing to do with it.
Goliath: *softly, sweetly, his beautiful hair shining in the moonlight, his claw coming up to just barely brush Elisa’s face, because he can’t help but touch her* Elisa…we should talk about the obvious romantic feelings that exist between us.
Elisa: *brewing coffee with Red Bull instead of water and injecting it straight into her blood stream because she hasn’t slept or showered in 70 hours due to every myth, folk story, and tall tale deciding to fuck manhattan specifically* Nah.
You know that meme where Rosa from B99 is holding a puppy and says “I’ve only had him for a day and a half but if anything happened to him I would kill everybody in the room and then myself”?
That is legit Elisa and Goliath about each other within an episode of meeting each other for the first time.
ok so gargoyles is full of lore so i decided to keep an eye of the stuff that isnt said directly in the series, such as touching the hair is the gargoyle equivalent of kisses. and uuuuh goliath cradles elisas head and hair when she is hospitalized for a gunshot. Goliath has known elisa for like, a week and is already basically kissing her forehead because she is injured
Who is your favorite gargoyle?
Goliath! He's big, wise, fatherly and compassionate, and is also a big dummy sometimes. It's hard not to love him when he looks like a Greek God that's come to life. Also, facts being facts, Keith David's tallent as a voice actor breathed an authentic life in to Goliath that still to this day I haven't seen in any other cartoon. Something about Goliath felt so real, even above the other characters, and despite being an 8ft tall lavender bara monster.
XANATOS: Punch me in the face.
ELISA: Punch you?
XANATOS: Yes, punch me in the face. Didn’t you hear me?
ELISA: I always hear ‘punch you in the face’ when you’re speaking, but it’s usually subtext.
DEMONA: I need your help.
XANATOS: Great. Who are we killing? I won’t do kids. That’s a rule. But that rule is negotiable if the kid’s a dick.
[After Xanatos' fifth thousand evil plot.]
ELISA: I just want to talk to him.
GOLIATH: What are you doing?!
ELISA: I just want to talk to him.
GOLIATH: Why do you have a shotgun!?
ELISA: I just want to talk to him.
I don’t know why but for some reason I find the way Elisa says ‘easy for you to say with those wings’ and the little hand gesture she does with it inordinately cute
