Dino Dracon has just been released from prison. Determined to take over the new York underworld, Dino won't let anyone - human or Gargoyle - stand in his way! So when Goliath and Hudson go out on their nightly patrol, they're in for a couple of extremely nasty surprises!
It can't be overstated how both familiar styles of storytelling and new styles of art work come together to create an absorbing experience that carries the reader from one page to the next. As amazing an experience this book is it makes one hope this series goes long enough to fill compendiums of stories allowing the reader to go on this journey without interruption. As it is we have to wait for each new issue and hope this level of artistry can continue within this book for years to come. Read Full Review
Kambadais delivers some beautifully detailed and thrilling art throughout the issue. I love the visual style of this series and how thrilling the imagery is in every issue. Read Full Review
GARGOYLES #4 begins a new arc with a simpler, more reader-friendly story, solid action, improved art, and a conflict that could spell trouble for the entire city. This issue is a step up in quality on every level compared to the previous issues. Read Full Review
Gargoyles #4 is exciting, and leaves readers guessing as to the identity of Goliaths attackers, as well as the young couple captured in the park. Hopefully more will be explained next issue, and the attackers could be directly connected to the shadowy figure seen at the beginning of this issue. What do you think will happen next?

The Gargoyles patrol New York every night. However, this specific night danger may come for them. Will it be just out on release Dino Dracon of the Dracon crime family they have to face? If not, then who or what will be posing a problem for Goliath and Hudson? Read Full Review
Now a third of the year into this run, Gargoyles has no focus. Given the first arc seemingly wrapped with the last issue, Gargoyles #4 is a mismatch of sizable proportions with a script that goes nowhere, nor does it know what it wants to be. Read Full Review
With the "getting everyone up to speed" over, things flow much better, and introducing a mob war is the sort of thing that Weisman did so well on the Spectacular Spider-Man cartoon. And the art is sharper, still true to the show but less cartoony.
The latest villains seem to be randos in gargoyle masks, but I'm assuming more will be revealed in the coming issues.
