Cool mythological stuff

I liked him especially in I'll Met by Moonlight (did I get the ep name right?) when he soundly defeated all the gargoyles at a newborn's magical power level. But I thought his "little" temper tantrum over Manhattan fell flat because they made him far too weak.

I particularly like the All I Need to Know, I Learned From Gagoyles page that I found a few years back. My favourite was:

 

"Never underestimate the hidden powers of the quiet, efficient guy with the glasses."

 

<small>You kinda have to see me in person to get why I like it.</small>

 

------------------

"Do fish-people eat fish, or would that be like humans eating monkeys?"

"Humans do eat monkeys. In fact humans eat other humans. . . Y'know, as a species, we are really quite unpleasant."
