Annual Gathering Events
The Rocky Horror Gargoyles Show
Since the early days of the convention, Greg Weisman would explain the development of the series, showcasing the original pitch (found on the season one DVD), as well as a Jim Cummings version of the pitch, a promo video for the series set to the music of Hans Zimmer's "Power of One", a presentation piece narrated by Jonathan Frakes (found on the 1995 Gargoyles The Movie: The Heroes Awaken release), and the Bad Guys Leica Reel. In 1998, Weisman introduced to the the pitch art for The New Olympians spin-off and, the following year, the pitch art for Gargoyles: The Dark Ages. [5] The pitch art for both spin-offs would be recorded in 1999 at the Dallas Gathering and shown on video in the years to follow. [6] In 2002, the voice tape for "The Last" was introduced. An animatic would be worked on by fans volunteering their efforts in the years to follow and was nearly finished by 2009. [7] The "same old schpiel" would continue at CONvergence. [8]

Radio Play
Every year, fans attending the Gathering of the Gargoyles enjoyed the Radio Play. Attendees audition for parts and those cast in the play performed alongside the special guest voice actors. The scripts ranged from Gargoyles episode and comic scripts, to scripts from other shows Greg Weisman worked on, to other unproduced show and pilots. [9]
