Gargoyles: Bad Guys

A short-lived but intriguing spin-off from Slave Labor's Gargoyles comic, this 2009 series shifts focus from the main clan to a team of reformed villains and morally ambiguous figures operating in the shadows. Written by Greg Weisman, the creator of the original Gargoyles animated universe, the single issue sets up a covert team tasked with handling threats too dangerous or messy for the heroes. It matters as an expansion of the Gargoyles mythos, exploring the potential for redemption and the gray areas of heroism within the established world.
