“We’re all here because we’ve identified as gay, lesbian, bisexual or transgender. But that’s really only the first step. There’s an entire spectrum to our identities…which is why our symbol is the rainbow.” –Spectrum #1
Two Gargoyles Comics is proud to present to you all the first page of Spectrum, our LGBT-focus superhero comic!
Richie Sorensen is a young man who is just getting ready to come out, and is seeking a greater understanding of himself as a young gay man. But just as he’s introducing himself to the community, his life changes as he suddenly gets superpowers! As if high school, friends, and family weren’t enough to figure out..!
This comic is about the search for identity within the gay community. The struggles for coming out are not what they once were– but while there may be more freedom to explore one’s identity, there are other challenges such as “Where do I fit in to all this?” Explore with us, and find your place on the rainbow’s spectrum!

NEW COMIC “SPECTRUM” COMING SOON!
Two Gargoyles is venturing into new territory (for us) with our upcoming project, “Spectrum.” Written by Michael McAdam and illustrated by Jeremy Thew, Spectrum is about a young man who is coming to terms with being gay at the same time as he gains superpowers. In the past, comics have focussed on the coming out process, the sex, or gone right for the campy fun aspect of the gay community; SPECTRUM is about introducing the reader, through the eyes of its main character Richie Sorensen, to the entire rainbow of LGBT culture.
SPECTRUM will show as much of the slice-of-life of gay teens’ struggle to understand themselves, while parallelling those struggles with the hero’s (and heroine’s!) journey to realization of their full potential.
Get out your colorful costumes, and be prepared to find your best self along the rainbow road as you join the SPECTRUM!
