Gargoyles: Here in Manhattan cover

Gargoyles series creator Greg Weisman returns with all-new stories in continuity with the epic Gargoyles television classic!

 

One thousand years ago, superstition and the sword ruled. It was a time of darkness. It was a world of fear. It was the age of Gargoyles. Stone by day, warriors by night, they were betrayed by the humans they had sworn to protect... frozen in stone by a magic spell for a thousand years. Now, here in Manhattan, the spell is broken, and they live again! They are defenders of the night! They are Gargoyles!

 

Reintroducing the Manhattan Clan, a family of Gargoyles at full strength, though modern New York City Is full or attractions and distractions, and each member of the clan has begun to go their own way. But their bonds will be tested when nefarious factions from all across the world attempt to steal that rarest, most precious or possessions... an unhatched Gargoyle egg!

“The dialogue was...worded authentically to what that character would say in the show. (Weisman) knows these characters better than anyone.” —DuckTalks


“Gargoyles #1 establishes itself as a perfect continuation of the beloved show. It's confident in the world it has created and its rich history while also making sure this isn't only going to be a nostalgia-fest that alienates new fans. There is a trace of something truly special being built here, and fans can expect this momentum to continue as the series develops.” - CBR


“Whether you’re a casual fan of the ’90s cartoon looking to satisfy your nostalgic curiosity or a diehard Gargoyle aficionado, this book should be up your alley.” —AIPT


“Kambadais has a fantastic visual style that emphasizes the characters with great, dramatic poses and atmosphere.”—The Super Powered Fancast


“Recaptures the fun, imagination, and excitement of the original Gargoyles cartoon by (re)introducing the entire cast and setting up the big villain to come.” —Comical Opinions


“Not only did it leave me wanting more, it has me wanting to go back and watch the original animated series to see what I missed.” —Graphic Policy
