MATT - [Also, I was excited to see that Gargoyles is getting its own panel at San Diego Comic Con. That has to be a great sign, right?]

I wonder whether the news of the upcoming crossover helped there.

[SPOILER] The cover of that issue, by the way, has a pre-"Timedancer" Brooklyn on it. Another case of "Never trust a cover", I suppose? [/SPOILER]

Finally picked up my physical copy of Demona 1 yesterday! Even after reading it on my phone a bunch of times, it was a joy to look at. Frank's art is even better full sized! Makes me think how excited I am to see the SLG books in full size. I have only seen them in digest size for 10+ years or ever.

Also, I was excited to see that Gargoyles is getting its own panel at San Diego Comic Con. That has to be a great sign, right?

Great!

I haven't received my Demona #1 physical copies yet, but I do see that they're in transit. Hurray! And we've also got lots more info on the Fantastic Four crossover, particularly on the Marvel end.

For those who aren't aware, Disney+ launched a new stream called "Throwbacks," which is a curated streaming channel on the app showing animated series from the 1990s and 2000s. I checked in a few times this evening and saw episodes of Little Mermaid, Bonkers, Darkwing, and Recess playing. "Reawakening" is playing right now.

One thing that interests me [SPOILER] is how Greg is going to write Tony Stark. The character has had so many different ups and downs and interpretations of the years that there's not exactly a "consistency" that other famous Marvel characters have. If I have to guess, I'm leaning towards his characterization in Avengers: Earth's Mightiest Heroes but I could be wrong.

And building off of that, I'm curious if will see an interaction between Tony and Xanatos. Depending on how Stark is written, they could be quite different or a little too similar for their own good. [/SPOILER]

MATTHEW - Thanks for sharing that with us (I've a fondness for looking up historical events connected with each day of the year myself). [SPOILER] Shakespeare's play on Richard II, as I've mentioned elsewhere, may have finally gotten a nod in "Gargoyles" through the "hollow crown" bit in "Demona" #1. [/SPOILER]

And GargWiki's just released a bit more information about the upcoming "Gargoyles"/"Fantastic Four" crossover, [SPOILER] including that apparently Xanatos and Tony Stark will be crossing paths in it. As a side-note, I wonder whether in that crossover, we could have the Fantastic Four, after meeting Goliath, suggesting that he have a "G" on his belt-buckle as a parallel to the "4" on their uniforms, a suggestion that Goliath immediately turns down. Those who've listened to the most recent "Voices from the Eyrie" podcast will be able to tell what inspired that creativity demon. [/SPOILER]

Don't have much to say except I'm also looking forward to the next issue.

I like to look up interesting historical events of the day and was surprised to find that today was when Richard II took the throne back in 1377. Richard of course was immortalized (not necessarily fairly) in Shakespeare's play.

You're Gonna Carry That Weight

MATT - Yes, I'm really looking forward to that one, especially after reading up on the historical background for it.

Truly.

And I'm hopeful that Demona #2 keeps it's release date and comes out a mere two weeks later!

My comic shop's weekly list of new releases just came out and includes Demona #1. At long last.
