Dynamite Entertainment has announced the return of the Gargoyles comic for August 2026. Greg Weisman, creator of the 90s animated series, will take the reins again as writer. The story is set in 1997 and kicks off with a low blow: Demona steals a gargoyle egg named Egwardo. Fans will be able to follow the adventures of Goliath and his clan in a monthly series that promises to continue the original lore without strange time jumps.
The Creative Process: From Storyboard to Monthly Comic 🎨
Weisman will apply the same narrative structure he used in the television series, with dense story arcs and parallel plots. The comic will be drawn in a 22-page per issue format, with a team of artists that has not yet been confirmed. Digital production will allow for real-time correction of continuity details, something that in the 90s required manually reviewing animation cels. Dynamite has confirmed they will use digital inking and flat color to maintain the dark aesthetic of the original show.
Egwardo: The Egg That Unleashes Chaos 🥚
Demona, who already has an impressive resume of evil deeds, decides that the best way to mess with Goliath is to steal the egg. Not just any egg, but Egwardo, who will probably end up with more development than some secondary characters from the series. The funny thing is, with how advanced surveillance technology was in 1997, no one saw a blue gargoyle flying off with an egg under her arm. Manhattan things.
