A Rainbow Of Fun Comics!

Comic Tracts

You’ve probably seen those little religious tracts that people leave in public spaces, hoping to ensnare your soul for the purposes of saving it.  We decided that was a pretty good idea– only not with religion, but with comics and […]

Diaperman

A fun superhero-parody comic set in a world where all the heroes and villains are really just closet fetishists—only they don’t realize it, leading to hilarious battles on the streets of Megopolis! Lighthearted, ridiculous and joyful! If you liked The […]

Gloaming

A creepy horror comic about a journalist who comes to a small town looking for a world-famous rock star that never existed, and stumbles on even deeper, weirder secrets. Spooky, creepy and dark. If you liked House Of Mystery, you’ll […]

In The Wings

Lean, mean and behind the scenes! The meta adventures of the Two Gargoyles Comics characters (and creators) getting real in the break room.

Spectrum

An LGBT-themed comic about a young man who is ready to come out as being gay—and gets superpowers at the same time, adding more complications to his journey of self-discovery. If you liked Young Heroes in Love you’ll like Spectrum!

The Magickal Mister Punch

Adrian Whitingham discovers a mysterious key which unlocks his future—a future filled with wizards, magic, strange new worlds and beings from beyond! If you liked Books of Magic, you’ll love Mister Punch!

Thunder

A young man returns to Canada after a youth spent in mythic Asgard; Devon Wells steps on the path to becoming a hero as Thunder! Fun, adventurous, humorous and sensitive! If you liked Invincible, you’ll love Thunder!

Twilight Detective Agency

Ostracized from their people, gargoyles Hawkstone and Riverdale have become part of humanity as best they know how: by setting up a detective agency that never meets its clients, never shows its face, and never fails to solve a case.

Xanthus

An alien energy being fuses its essence with a despairing man named Sean Preston and together they attempt to return joy to the world. Reflective and hopeful. If you liked Superman, you’ll love Xanthus!

Calgary Red & White Club Show!

Posted on September 14, 2015 by twogargs
michaelbaymaxAlthough it was a small, one-day show, the Calgary Red and White Expo was great for Twogargs’ sales!  Although larger shows may offer more traffic for Artist’s Alley, smaller, more intimate shows give one a much greater chance of connecting with one’s audience!  Sales were good, and having time and space to chat with fans and peers alike made this show a “must-do” for the future.  Already looking into next September’s show! Highlights were:  sharing a table with Kyle Burles — he has such good energy and as the artist on Gloaming, adds an extra bit of oomph to sales (and fan discussions of ) our comic at the table. There’s a definite community “feel” to the show; our group of friends have been attending it for years now– this was our first time exhibiting at it.  Familiar faces, veterans of the comic and toy collecting communties, and family events like a kid’s costume show (but seriously, guys, TURN DOWN YOUR MICROPHONE)!  It was a good feeling and a great way for kids to get a little break from the hubbub of “Back to School.” My personal highlight?  I MET BAYMAX.  So there. BIG WEBSITE ANNOUNCEMENT! You may already be aware that twogargs.com is updating, going through some changes.  Part of the reason is that, starting today, Twogargs will be making its comics AVAILABLE FOR VIEWING ONLINE.  Yup, you read that correctly– there is now a “Comics Archive” link at the top of the home page that will take you to our comics page where you can read what you’ve been missing or re-visit old favourites!  I’ve started with Diaperman, the comic that started it all– I’m posting pages from the Complete Series Graphic Novel– including the writer/artist commentary written by me, Michael McAdam, and original artist Mike Rieger. I’ll be posting a new page every day so you can follow along.  Also, there’s a series category for “Behind the Scenes” — in which one-shots like “Two Gargoyles Texting” will pop up every so often!  If you like randomness, you’ll like Behind the Scenes. Onward and upward!

Mike Rieger made me this great comic with interchangeable panels so we could make comics about the kinds of things we discuss every day.  Riverdale and Hawkstone of Twilight Detective Agency are our personas, and this is your insight into the riveting world of indie press comic companies, folks. I give you:  Two Gargoyles Texting. elephantking  

FAN EXPO: GINORMOUS

Posted on September 10, 2015 by twogargs
Howdy Gargeteers! Back from FanExpo in Toronto!  Very well organized, well-run con considering its size (huge!) and its location (smack dab in the middle of downtown Toronto!).  I (Michael) had a lovely table setup in Artist’s Alley. fanexpotable Sales were slow for me, but what I lacked in selling I made up for in learning and inspiration.  Mike and Lisa Rieger, both experts in design and detail, gave my table a once-over and talked to me about “maximizing” my display to attract better attention.  Which worked– after they used their Fairy Sales Magic to move things around, sales picked up.  Cleverness! Also, got introduced to Lar deSouza by my old friend Heather Bruton.  Every morning, Heather and I would gab about the Business of Art and Creativity and refresh each other’s inspiration; when Lar joined us on the third morning it was electric.  The exchange of ideas has me singing with energy to produce more, better and with more clarity, than ever before! Did you know I live-reported each day of the con on social media?  That’s right– on Twitter (@Twogargs), Tumblr (twogargs.tumblr.com) and Facebook (facebook.com/twogargs/).  But I’ve also JUST started an Instagram account specifically for Twogargs– if you were following livemike317 before the convention lease follow Twogargs (https://instagram.com/twogargs/) now. One of the results of my con-fueled inspiration is that I’ve started a Kickstarter account! (https://www.kickstarter.com/profile/twogargs) Feel free to follow me to see what I’m up to, and WATCH THIS SPACE because Kickstarter is going to figure prominently in the Two Gargoyles’ future! Another is that Kyle Burles and I have submitted our comic, Gloaming, to Shadowline comics for consideration as part of their line.  Wish us luck– it could mean stepping up to the big(ger) leagues! Also, with Mike Rieger’s help, I’m going to be updating the twogargs.com site to better reflect the expanded direction I want to take the site in, and we’ll also be including new offerings such as webcomics for you to enjoy and keep visiting the site!  It’s all very squee-worthy, at least in my book! redandwhitelogoAll this and the Red & White Expo in Calgary this weekend!  Kyle and I will be there!  Will you?  Sunday, SUNDAY SUNDAY! (the 13th of September)! Remember, as our Two Gargoyles say, “Keep Looking UP!”
