Description
Gargoyles had many great characters. Though, one of my personal favorites may be 'Macbeth'
based on the William Shakespeare character from the play of the same name, Macbeth (alias 'Lennox MacDuff') was a scottish king mystically bonded to Demona, making both him and the rogue gargoyle immortals with their current physical age frozen.
Macbeth as lived for at least 900 years or more, and in the main series is depicted as a character very similar to Deathstroke/Slade Wilson.
at first a secondary enemy to the Manhattan Clan, he eventually became an "ally" later in the series.

Excuse Me I was wondering something you see I have The Complete First Season of Gargoyles signed by the voice of Macbeth himself John Rhs Davies and I was just wondering if I were to sell this item with John Rhs Davies autograph how much would it be worth? To anyone who can answer this question please respond to this comment as soon as you can.Warm regards 28ear.

I'm not good with numbers and figures, So I don't presume to know the exact worth of something.
BUT, assuming said complete season DVD 'HAS' been autographed by one of the series actors
(and, you can find somebody to authenticate the signature, assuming you weren't there when it was signed)
then, I would say for certain that the DVD would be worth a bit more than any unsigned version.
(I know that if actor Peter Cullen was to ever sign a G1 Transformers DVD, many would pay top dollar for it.)

Ah yes, I could remember taking that in Language Arts class, and it was a true piece of language art I must say.
I learned about from learning about that play.

Sadly, I missed out on school after an "issue" I had in grade school.
It was from Gargoyles that I learned of Shakespeare literature, such as Macbeth, Avalon, Oberon and Titania and Othello.
Greg certainly wasn't shy in writing in the classic works, and adapting them into something for the modern kids to enjoy.
Macbeth still remains my favorite, given his considerable skills that almost makes him a DC or Marvel character.
another character I find interesting is Iago/Coldsteel, for being yet another example of a Gargoyle being a villain (seriously, why WOULD Othello/Coldstone find his word credible in the least? even for a Gargoyle, he looks evil.)

If there were ever a Gargoyles movie, I'd think this guy could be played by Sean Connery.

Wow. You know, I wish they can add other of Shakespeare's work in Gargoyles like Henry V, Romeo and Juliet, and Hamlet. I also think they can add Beowulf.

Greg Weisman WAS going to do a Romeo and Juliet type of story with his un-released 'New Olympians' spinoff.
which would've dealt with the New Olympians making their existence public, and had a male human and a female new olympian having a romance akin to that.
though, if you squint a little..Goliath and Elisa is similar to Romeo and Juliet.

This is really well drawn.
I can see the Batman hype has put your focus back on the Gargoyles/Batman story you were focusing on.

Something like that.
At the very least, I went back and finally completed ALL of the missions on Batman: Arkham Origins.
including finding the remaining Enigma Data Packs, and at last entering Enigma's secret room (where the very first Riddler Trophy was located)
as well as defeat Deadshot (he was tricky for me at first), and get around to the last mission of apprehending the escaped Blackgate Inmates.
Funny thing is that I've had Arkham Origins since the day it was first released, and I still haven't tried the online multiplayer gameplay yet.
oh, well.
Anyways, I guess this was one of my better drawings. I did my very best to make it as detailed as possible (which isn't that easy for me to do.)
the "Muses" (Art Gods) were being very generous, today.

I remember how annoying the Deadshot missions were...
I also haven't played multiplayer (I don't do that anymore.)

I have attempting getting started. if only because Robin, Bane and Joker are only playable in multiplayer.
Ironically enough, Multiplayer as it's one cutscenes. thus far, I have seen them of Joker and Bane addressing their troops.
That is another unique thing of Arkham Origins multiplayer: the option of playing as the armed henchmen for once.
which is a real "other side of the coin" type of thing whenever you think about it.
As for Deadshot, well..I prefer Arkham City Deadshot over Arkham Origins. as in Origins, you had to beat him in a predator challenge.
which is tricky, as Deadshot can literally see in any direction (his line of sight is shown via his targeting laser, and the laser can bounce off object like a criss-crossed line) making it difficult to takedown his henchmen without him knowing.
plus, there is taking HIM down as well, which is easier said than done.
Still..the 'Blackgate Escapees' mission was pretty fun. ONE inmate actually annoyed Batman by singing "Jingle Bells, Batman Smells" after getting beaten up (Batman's response to it was priceless.)
Now, I usually start a new game on occasion and play story mode for fun.

I remember the Jingle Bells song. I can't fully remember Batman's response, was it a really annoyed sounding "no...."?
If I recall, he called Gordon and said that he should bring a muzzle because this one "is a biter."
Who else wears a muzzle?

Yes. although, the subtitles was read as "NO." in capitalized lettering. and, yes. he did say "bring a muzzle, he's a biter" (Batman also mentioned the 'Arkham Wing' in Blackgate, which I assume is where the crazy one went before Arkham Asylum was reopened.)
