If they kept the same tone I’d love more Gargoyles. Back in the day it felt like such a mature cartoon, like Batman the animated series

One of the reasons being it was made by Reaves and other Batman TAS writers.

Well there we go!

I almost dread mentioning a reboot because it will be a monkeys paw wish where we get teen titans go or adventure time style animation and the whole thing goes down the crapper

That is always the sad part of losing a creative mind from your childhood before getting to; I guess you could say, "re-realize" it at an older age with the same creativity in mind.

Your grief mixes with your nostalgia and it sometimes leads to disappointment due to greedy folks.

Greg Weisman is currently writing a Gargoyles comic for Dynamite Comics. Issue #3 just came out a couple weeks ago, so it'll be fairly easy to catch up.
