* The January 2024 Kickstarter campaign to reprint the Marvel and SLG comics in trade collections exceeded its goal of $50,000 by over 1,750% ($925,001 to be exact). Not only is it a phenomenal achievement in its own right, but it’s a testament to the loyalty of fans (longtime and new) towards the franchise, their love of it, and how badly they’ve been wanting Weisman to continue the series the way he intended it.

* [[CloningBlues Delilah]] gets one in the comics when she exercises free will for the first time, first telling off both Angela and Goliath in one go, and then informing Thailog that she wants nothing more to do with him. Remember, this is the same clone who was heavily implied to have been programmed as a sex slave for Thailog - she used to call him "Master!"

** He defeats them again in "Avalon Part Three" when he's a much older man. Unfortunately, [[spoiler:he's not as strong as he once was, and he's without the Grimorum, so the magic he uses against the Sisters drains all his energy, and ends up killing him]].

[[spoiler: Xanatos [[CueTheSun Cues the Sun]], triggering the gargoyle's natural [[TakenForGranite stone sleep]].

** And then there's Fox's MamaBear moment when [[spoiler: she blew Oberon into a wall with suddenly-present magic]]. All Puck could say was, "You hurt him with that one... ''Do it again!''"
* "Possession" has a slew of CMOA's for characters, especially ones who normally don't receive one (I.E. ''[[spoiler:Lexington's rather epic {{plan}} at the end]]'', the fact that Xanatos's still-infant child finally TookALevelInBadass, to a ridiculous extreme, Coldstone's (as well as the other {{Cyborg}} gargoyle's alliances drawn permanently), and Puck going from chaotic to true neutral at the end, [[spoiler: actually helping the heroes out for a change]] is rather epic.

* Vinnie in "Vendettas." While it was a BigLippedAlligatorMoment and a BreatherEpisode, Vinnie definitely got his crowning moment here. He buys a {{BFG}}, hauls it halfway across the city, gets in a variety of unfortunate mishaps, and all to [[spoiler: shoot Goliath in the face with a banana cream pie to get revenge for the ways that the gargoyles affected his life, though they weren't aware of it]]. Sure, it may not sound like much, but remember--he's the only one to ever swear revenge on Goliath and then succeed in carrying it out. Not only that, but the episode shows that he can be quite a {{determinator}} when he wants to be.
