TWOGARGS PATREON LAUNCH!!
That’s right– Twogargs now has a Patreon!
Hi Folks! My name is Michael McAdam, and I’m a writer. I love comics, and I have been writing them and publishing them on my site, Two Gargoyles Comics, (https://twogargs.com) for years.
I believe in the diversity and creativity of the independent creator: I have created comics like Thunder, a half-Norse, half-Canadian superhero; Gloaming, a horror series about a small town with too many secrets; Twilight Detective Agency, a stone-faced gothicomedy about two gargoyles trying to be detectives without being discovered as being inhuman; and Diaperman, a zany comedic parody of the superhero genre itself.
All of these titles are fun to write, but aren’t sustainable without your help! By becoming my patron, you will be the one to help these projects continue; fund and shape new content, and contribute to the indie art scene in a very real, tangible way.
Supporters will get first-view opportunities of upcoming projects, access to private content, and more!
With your support, I can continue generating content using artists across genres, increasing the talent pool of independent, self-employed artists, introducing new talents to the community and creating fresh, creative content. With your support, independent talent can have a stronger voice, creatively.
This Patreon will fund the generation of new content every month on the Two Gargoyles Comics site, free of charge for viewing, and when there is enough for a comic-sized book, it will be gathered all together and made available for print or digital download sales.
So please– support our community, support independent comics, support what you want to see by becoming a Patron!
In Gratitude,
Michael McAdam
HAPPY ST. PATRICK’S DAY!
NEW PRINTS at RED & WHITE EXPO!
Getting all packed up for tomorrow’s one-day Red & White Expo at McMahon Stadium in Calgary. And I’m pleased to announce Two Gargoyles will be launching seven new prints, from a new project yet to be announced– new convention season means new products, I’m happy to say!
Allow me to introduce you to The Black Whip, from the pages of Diaperman! You don’t want to be a problem for her, because when a problem comes along…!
Come on down to the Red & White Expo tomorrow to see what other prints I’ll be unveiling!
Also, there’ll be issues of Twilight Detective Agency and Gloaming for sale, as well as the Diaperman Graphic Novel, and only at a convention can you get your comics signed by one of the creators! (Hey– they’ll be worth something SOME day…)
You will also be able to purchase our fantastic “Garg Tract”, A Litany of Vice! We encourage you to buy in bulk so you can leave a copy everywhere. 🙂
Post-convention, I will make a print gallery on the site so you can see what we’ve got available!
2016 is going to be very exciting, especially with your help! Two Gargoyles is looking forward to creating more this year, getting to more shows, having a stronger presence, and getting the comics done and out there! So I’ll be launching a Patreon very soon, and it sure would help if you could tell all your friends about it so that when it launches, it launches BIG.
Onwards and upwards!
Michael
CALGARY RED & WHITE EXPO!
RENEW YOUNG JUSTICE!
I’m taking off my Writer/Publisher of Two Gargoyles hat to talk about something very dear to me: A cartoon called Young Justice. It’s available now, on Netflix. Apparently, NOW IS THE TIME to watch it, and KEEP watching it, in fact- -BINGE watch it. That is how the Powers That Be track popularity. Buying DVD’s is great, but it only counts as “one sale”, one blip on the grand screen of “look, this makes money, we should make more of it.”
However, watching #YoungJustice on #Netflix — constantly, for as long as possible– tells the movers and shakers that WE WANT MORE OF THIS.
Christopher Jones, the artist on the #YoungJustice comic, posted THIS picture recently, and it got me thinking: Asking people to binge watch YJ is great, but we need to make it FUN, something to join in on. So I asked Chris if he still had the Reach Bottle Logo. He did not. So with Mike Rieger’s sorcery and my wordy formatting, we created our OWN Reach Bottle Logo– for YOU.
Oh hang on. We only just gettin’ this train heated up– ain’t even left the STATION yet.
Of COURSE we want you to slam Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, Tumblr, Telegram, EVERY social media with the hashtags #RenewYoungJustice and #KeepBingingYJ. But why not make it fun? So let’s all join in!
We have made a downloadable, printable sheet of Reach soft drink labels in .pdf format, that you can print at home and cut out and then tape onto a bottle of an appropriately-colored energy drink (the labels are specifically designed to fit around Glaceau’s Vitamin Water, but whatever you can make work!
We have a downloadable square template in transparent .png format. Those of you with the know-how can take a picture holding your REACH bottle, and overlay the template on top of it– PERFECT for adding to Instagram!!Remember to hashtag your pictures with #RenewYoungJustice and #KeepBingingYJ and most importantly, SPREAD THE WORD. Reach out, as the Reach does, to be friends with the world!
Become a citizen of the milky way By holding out your hand Grab the taste that’ll make your day When sippin’ you’ll understand
Our friends have come from far beyond To help us, and to teach Quench your thirst while we all bond Don’t wait- reach for a Reach!
Yeah, in Strawberry Mango or in Peach!
Reach for a Reach!
