Among many planned tales, one idea Weisman has for Gargoyles is an Upgrade for The Pack, which will then become The Ultra-Pack (hinted to in Future Tense).

The team will consist of:
- Coyote 6.0 and shortly after lead by Coyote 7.0 (5.0 was recently seen in the Clan Building trades)
- Jackal
- Hyena
- Wolf
- A member yet to be identified (though this member may or may not have appeared in the first chapter of Gargoyles Bad Guys)

Now with Coyote we have a robotic member who simply is rebult with a bigger and stronger body. With Jackal and Hyena we have members who've had body parts replaced with machinery. With Wolf we have a member who underwent a genetic mutation to have the strengthen and capabilities of a wolf.

With former member Dingo, we had a member who donned a mechanical suit.

So what other types of upgrades could be implemented for this new unseen member? Best I can think of is going Multiple Man and giving this member the ability to make copies of himself/herself (not cloning, but just temporary doppelgangers).

But then, aside from possibiliy being too out there in terms of Gargoyles science, the only time something like this was close to being done was through cloning. Whereas the other upgrade options were established.

But I tried. Any thoughts?

I think that's possible if they used hard-light holograms. They had them in Future Tense (even if that wasn't real) so at some point in the future in the Gargverse the tech might be developed.

I’m thinking that the Pack member who’s going to get the most drastic “upgrade” is Coyote himself. We know from Greg’s planned Gargoyles 2198 (http://www.s8.org/gargoyles/askgreg/faq.php?s=gargs2198) spin-off that he will eventually evolve into “Coyote-X”, a highly advanced and machiavellian A.I. bent on world domination. Plus there’s also Coldsteel’s comment about Coyote having “potential”. Based on all that, I’m thinking Coyote 6.0 is going to become sentient and break away from Xanatos’ control before founding the Ultra-Pack.

I basically see him becoming the Gargoyles Universe equivalent of Brainiac or Ultron, a living machine constantly rebuilding itself after every defeat.
