31 Years Later, Dynamite Comics’ Gargoyles Shows Greg Weisman Still Has More Stories To Tell

Even 32 years later, Disney’s Gargoyles still commands a loyal fanbase as Dynamite is commited to publish more tales and here’s a preview in what is on shelves and expected.

Dynamite Comics & Disney's Gargoyles Even 32 years after the release of Disney’s Gargoyles, the fandom remains strong. After Dynamite Comics‘ Gargoyles: Demona, I’m anxious for more. This series marked a turning point by spotlighting this complex anti-hero (review link) during the long years while the others slept. It leaves me wondering what’s next. What stories does creator Greg Weisman still have planned?

When the legacy of Gargoyles is rich with supporting characters who feel primed for spinoffs, just who is next following the Demona mini-series will be fun to debate over. My money is on Puck, as his time with the Mortals over the years still has not been explored. He did give viewers a tease, but to see it come to life proper is highly desired. That’s one side story I’d like to see published by Dynamite.

But as for what’s what’s currently out and expected this year, we do have the following:

Dynamite Comics’ Gargoyles Demona Closing Chapter is Excitingly Near!

Demona’s solo comic series is just beginning! Just whether she’s a survivor or an eye of a tiger, depends on what Greg Weisman and Frank Paur have planned. Will this be it, or will there be more?

One lone survivor’s journey in her solo comic book outing by Greg Weisman and Frank Paur will soon reach its finale. And what I’ve found in Gargoyles Demona feels very Shakespearean. Her desire for revenge versus being a mother to a youngling plays like a tragedy worthy of a stage, and perhaps like an operetta too! As part of her days are revealed for all to read, she’s losing herself. What we learn about her dealings with humanity during the early to late Middle Ages is a story longtime fans have been waiting for.

Although this creator has barely scratched the surface regarding the Age of Renaissance and later eras, I can’t wait to see what can transpire then! Demona’s survival in the later centuries wasn’t explored in the animated series, and there’s still an enormous gap before the tale picks up again in 1910 when she killed Jackson Canmore, a Hunter whose goal is to continue Gillecomgain’s desire for revenge. It all began because she scratched his face while scavenging for food back in the early Middle Ages.

Besides this title, the other works I’m excited about are the following. I will include notes where possible as I received previews of Mad Cave Studios release to whet my appetite for picking up the print edition. Instead of Gatchaman, this time they’re expanding their selection of nostalgia classics to include Speed Racer! There’s another title, but please read on to find out.

Some Fans Strongly Want A Disney’s Gargoyles Reboot, But…

Should Disney’s Gargoyles be given a reboot? Some fans are against, and others just want a continuation.

Disney's GargoylesThe past few years have shown fond properties remade for a new generation. Duck Tales was one which started broadcasting last year. Now into its second season, Ben10 is going strong. Over the long weekend, ReBoot started streaming on Netflix (USA & other regions other than Canada). Coming later this year is yet another iteration of Transformers and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Also on the list is Invader Zim, Muppet Babies and Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego?

In a random conversation with fellow older geeks, one pal suggested TailSpin ought to be next. I feel not every show from Disney Afternoon can make that comeback. If Darkwing Duck can appear in Duck Tales, could a spin-off be coming? My show was Rescue Rangers and it was the reason why I never got any homework done (until much later in the day). Gargoyles was also part, and the team behind crafting this fantastic series did a wonderful job. Not only did it tug at many literary allusions but it also pulled from various mythologies to craft a world that was steeped in folklore. Some were in plain sight, watching the ongoing trials of man, and others preferred to remain in secrecy.

Released over the holiday weekend is a fan trailer recreating a few moments from the opening sequence of Gargoyles. This CGI treatment shows the technology is here to bring this show to the next level. Some shots are from New York City proper, and others are digital. The blend worked very well. However, to nail the perfect voice-over is hard; I kept on wanting to hear Keith David’s voice instead of this poor man’s version. This product is a fan film. I had to disengage some filters. This tease ultimately worked. I pulled out my DVDs and started watching the series again .

Disney’s Gargoyles 20th Anniversary Late Tribute

Disney's Gargoyles LogoYes, I’m late in posting this information, but October 24th marked the official 20th anniversary of Disney’s Gargoyles on television. Can you blame me? Halloween was on my mind for more than a week, and I was getting ready to celebrate my most favourite time of the year that also included hunting for real life supernatural treats. When I’m a paranormal investigator, I can’t be stuck at the couch. However, I digress. As I write this tribute, I have the series playing on a second monitor.

Disney's Gargoyles Season 2 Volume 2 CoverFans of Disney’s Gargoyles do not have to go through the Disney Movie Club (DMC) to order the highly desired Season Two Volume Two release. It was once an exclusive through this mail order catalogue house and the months that followed after my editorial has shown that the Mouse does care. A tip from a reader to say that they have made buying this release easier and further monitoring of where this video collection can be found shows that the stone protectors of the night are indeed loose! This volume can now be ordered through Amazon.
