GARGOYLES WINTER SPECIAL 2025 #1

DYNAMITE COMICS
(W) Greg Weisman, Nate Cosby (A) George Kambadais

For Elisa Maza, December is bittersweet. She loves the snowy streets of New York City, the bustle of the holiday season, having a Gargoyle boyfriend who carries her above the skyscrapers. But the month also reminds her of an unsolved mystery from her first year as a detective — a baffling break-in that featured a stolen family heirloom, and vague descriptions of a lumbering “thing” seen only in the shadows.

COVER PRICE:	$5.99
ALL WEEK LONG YOU PAY:	$4.50
