Gargoyles was noted for its relatively dark tone, complex story arcs, and melodrama; character arcs were heavily employed throughout the series, as were Shakespearean themes. The series also received favorable comparisons to Batman: The Animated Series. A video game adaptation and a spin-off comic series were released in 1995. The show’s storyline continued from 2006 to 2009 in a comic book series of the same title, produced by Slave Labor Graphics. (wiki)
