Bring Haven Back – The Fans Are Ready!
I just saw a video of a bunch of dudes cosplaying anime men with giant swords getting into a shouting match, and they didn’t have an Ichigo but they did, by some absolute fucking miracle, have a Haru Glory
Fresh Rave Master related content in 2026??? Holy shit Batman I have been blessed
Haru Glory???
Ciro Nieli ("Super Robot Monkey Team Hyperforce Go!", Warner Bros Animation "Teen Titans", Marvel Animation "The Avengers: Earth's Mightiest Heroes", Nickelodeon Animation Studios "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" and Hasbro Entertaiment "Transformers Earthspark") shared concept art of a proposed "Gargoyles" reboot/sequel series that he pitched at Disney Television Animation in 2020.
Sadly the project would get passed due the COVID-19 cuts at Disney Television Animation alongside an original show idea he had "Weirdo Pizza". These cuts also affected other scrapped projects like "Weird Waters" by Jacob Hair and Bob Bowen, "Planet Runaway" and a Untitled "Lockjaw/Marvel" project by Ben Balistreri as well a yet to be revealed project by "Star Vs. The Forces Of Evil" and "Gravity Falls" alumni Sage Cotugno.
A live-action reboot of the series for Disney+ is currently in development at Disney Television Studios and Atomic Monster with Gary Dauberman (Warner Bros "Anabelle" franchise, Paramount Pictures "Street Fighter") as showrunner and James Wan and Michael Clear (A24 "Backrooms") as executive producers. Dauberman would mention that the project was still alive in April 2025 during Wondercon 2025.
"Back in 2020 I was working at Disney TV Animation development. One of the projects I touched upon was the now classic, Gargoyles. My pitch was a respectful and simple continuation of the series: Canmore, with the Grimorium Arcanium, casts the Gargoyles back into a deep sleep while he overtakes the 5 Burroughs of NYC with crime lords and monster beasts. 25 years later, in 2020, once police commissioner, Eliza Masa, raises the Gargoyles from their spell and the fight to take back the city begins. The art choice was a streamlined look, because I wanted full 2D animation and was reluctant to change the established core aesthetic. Unseen here is Goliath had lost his arm and replaced it with a cybernetic one." - Ciro Nieli
It's neat that Disney was going to make another Gargoyles animated series, but I'm also real glad this did not get made. Because if it had we wouldn't have gotten the fantastic comic series written by the show's co-creator Greg Weisman that does continue the series from the ending of season 2 using his original plans.
This pitch just sounds very Ninja Turtles and not very Gargoyles, to me. One of the core parts of Gargoyles, from episode one of the show, was "don't judge a book by its cover" as in "these things that look like scary monsters are actually sweet and kind." They didn't generally fight monsters on the show, one of the main villains of series was the rich handsome seemingly nice guy billionaire intentionally positioned as a Bruce Wayne type for them to rug pull you on when it turns out he's the main villain. The "monsters" of the show were the seemingly good people who were in fact exploiters. And also bigotry, that was the big monster of the show, and at the end of season 2 we saw that's where the series was going with the Gargoyles being outed to the world with bigots ready to kill them in their sleep.
So a new series that's about them fighting monsters and crime lords just doesn't sound great (imo the least interesting minor villains of the show were the mobsters).
And that's ignoring the canon mistakes in this pitch (the Grimorium was destroyed, Canmore's one goal is killing Gargoyles as revenge and not sending them to sleep nor ruling a criminal empire), and that it sounds more like a follow-up to the non-canon terrible 3rd season "The Goliath Chronicles" than anything from the original series.
Could it have been good? Maybe. Anything has the potential to be good. But it doesn't sound very Gargoyles to me, which is important.
Bout to get Stuck in a Glass Elevator by The Myriad absolutely jammed in my brain again.
We've talked about Haven's missing mothers bit an we talk about the betrayals of the father's for a second.
Duke's dad was abusive and neglectful. Even when Duke thought he was taking his life into his own hands his father sets it up so that Duke stays right under him thumb. Even the few occasions he does show up its only to convince Duke to become a serial killer, he didn't care how he just wanted the bloodshed to continue.
Nathan only had his father for most of his life. While he knows he cared to some extent he was never emotionally avaliable, which can be seen and a typical toxic man trait, it isn't helpful when your sons trouble is what it is. He's one of the main reasons that Nathan's trouble effected his emotions to such and extent. To make matters worse its revealed that he lied to him for most of his life, and then he died without really any explanation resulting in Nathan having to do the same thing as Duke and look into the mirror of himself that does nothing but hurt people. Both options for Nathan's father seemed like bad ones to him for a long time because of this.
Every idderation of Mara's (I hate that I have to use her as the base but in this context she is) personalities had one thing in common, they all saw Agent Howard as a sort of father figure. This makes it all the more hurtful when every single time, its revealed to her that he's not on her side. He's just there to make sure she gets to Haven and then into the Barn. He'll threaten everything she loves just to get him to do what he wants. Which is both great foreshadowing and extremely manipulative. So when Croatian shows up doing almost the same thing, acting like he cares just to get what he wants, its actually not much of a surprise that Audrey believes that he's changed his ways so quickly. That thought process is unhelpfully ingrained in her.
All three of them are forced to face the kind of evil they would have had the other two not intervened in someway. We can argue a lot that they didn't influence each other, but they are a trio for a reason, which makes it even stranger that they didn't acknowledge the love between them when, even if it was just on the back burner, kept them as who they truly are.
Why the fashion history girlie on Instagram gotta be talking about the live action BatB? Now I've got a resurgence of 'salty at the movie for not going for a post French Revolution, lost Dauphin angle'.
I've got a head canon.
Disney's 1991 Beauty and the Beast movie is secretly about the Lost Dauphin. The Beast's name is Charles, Louis Charles. It's post revolution France. The costuming says so. *Waves metaphorical receipts
I'll die on this hill.

What a Gargoyles fan can't help thinking about while watching Tom Scott document paragliding over England......
David Xanatos* should gift Elisa Maza paragliding lessons.
I think that would be an amazing surprise and I think Goliath would get a kick out of gliding alongside her.
*if he was at all a decent human being and trying to make up for all the shit he pulls/trouble he causes/grief he gives her... Big if, I know, but he surprises us every once in a while.
Can't find the post that has this DWJ quote, so I'm making my own for easier reference.
A bunch of us on the DWJ mailing list were wondering about Howl's past - where did he go to school, what field did he study in, how did he e
"Howell Jenkins played rugby for Swansea University, and his doctoral thesis was on Spells -- his first degree was in Philosophy (probably Philosophy with something-or-other, but his interest was philosophy). One day he found himself being pursued by the four brothers of a young lady he'd played ever so slightly fast-and-loose with (no surprises there) who were chanting "Blood for Blod!" as they chased him down the street. Each of them was a huge forward who seemed to plan to use Howell's head for a ball.
Luckily a wing can generally run faster than a forward, and he stayed ahead of them as he made for the shelter of his sister's house, galloping up the steep streets and skidding on the corners like a centaur. He wasn't a magical practitioner in Wales, but he had been reading some particularly interesting spells that week, and as he ran he recited one of them; his hand on the doorknob of the house he intended to take refuge in, he cried out the final word of this spell, and as the door opened found that instead of his sister's hall, it opened into Mrs. Pentstemmon's foyer.
Since the pursuit was hot on his heels, he didn't hesitate, but dived through the door and slammed it behind him.
So now we know. That's how he got into Ingary. Of course, once he had demonstrated such powerful and completely untrained magical ability, Mrs. P had to train him, or there was no telling what trouble he might cause by accident.
It really wasn't her fault that after she *had* trained him, he still caused trouble both by accident and on purpose. It was simply in his nature."
As both a Howl's Moving Castle and a Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norrell fan, every time I think about Howell Jenkins having a degree in spells and accidentally magic-ing his way into another world I really really really want to know who it was who mixed up the one book Of Magic with Howl's books On Magic.
Forever astounded that more people on tumblr aren’t into Dark Matter (2015).
Like??? It has EVERYTHING -this show is about a found family of criminal anti-capitaliststrying to decide who they are and what kind of people they want to be.
It’s about identity, and follows the conflict between who people used to be and who they are. Almost every main character has to decide if they want to go by a chosen name or their given name, and their reasons are all very different and interesting imo.
There’s betrayal, there’s a whole arc centered around royal court machinations with lots of swordplay
It’s also a space western!
There’s duels AND shootouts AND epic space battles
also some romance if that’s your thing but if not dw it’s there but not treated as like… more important than other relationships yknow?
It is ACAB all the way. there’s queer main characters AND one of the best autism/ND robot allegories I’ve ever seen.
Like seriously, if you like science fiction and stories about identity and belonging that are really fun and really cool you should watch dark matter you won’t regret it.
(It’s also free on the CW website lmao go check it out)
So. Neil Gaiman really did the thing.
Do I even bother watching season 3....
I wish Terry was alive so I could find out his actual opinion on this. Anyone got a functional necromancy spell?
They look like disappointed parents in this scene. I can’t get over that 🎬
I love how expressive they made their faces— especially megaminds. He looks so distraught and confused …
Restarted LOTR for the thousandth time and I just finished listening to Sam arguing with the other hobbits at the pub about whether or not his cousin saw a walking elm tree giant on the north moors of the shire and going back and forth about how it was supposedly the size of an elm tree and there aren’t any elm trees growing up there, and the relative credibility of various sources, and how it was all second- and third-hand, and until the the Two Towers readers might think it’s just part of generic hobbit rumors.
Once you DO know about ents, though, it puts the whole discussion in a new light. Not only are elm tree giants definitely real, but they agree that their lost girlfriends would probably like the Shire, so it’s entirely possible that a random elm ent trekked all the way from Fangorn and is now wandering around up there thinking, “There’s no hot single farm girls in this area…!”
Very excited to finally share some pictures of my Dread Pirate Frogerts build! I've been thinking about making this outfit for my Kermit for a while now, but the proper motivation to actually get this done was hearing that Cary Elwes was announced as a guest for my local comic convention! So with any luck Dread Pirate Frogerts will be getting to meet the real Westley very soon.
A shocking amount of work went into making this little outfit... I completely underestimated the amount of time I would need to put all this together. Though a good chunk of that was me getting way too wrapped up in perfectionism... ask me how many times I re-did the smocking on the sleeves (On second thought, don't, it's embarrassing). Here I thought I had been con-crunching with Piggy last year... technically, I only just finished Kermit today, and the convention starts Thursday. Lots of internal (and external) screaming was had with this build. I did film the majority of it, with plans to turn it into a full video and reel in the future... maybe once I've had a chance to recoup from aforementioned con-crunch.
Reading the manga has given me a new appreciation for Opla bcoz nearly every single minor and major character in Opla is literal carbon copy of their manga/anime counterparts
Casting and dress up and makeup so perfect that they all look like they've been plucked right out of the source material
Just started season 2 and no I've not read/watched much of the manga/anime but One Piece has been around for like for ever. So I've seen characters, I feel like I kind know the look of the work at least.
But, for real! ^This!^ Every character that hits my screen in this live action version really looks exactly like they should within the limits of the medium. I look characters up and the costume/production team just keeps killing it. Even Chopper looks so much better than I was anticipating. CGI characters are really easy to fall on the wrong side of hit/miss.
And I don't know enough to speak to casting choices but I have zero complaints so far for every actor that's in front of me. Source material to live action characterization is beyond my commentary. But everyone seems to have understood the assignment. And everyone seems to be having an absolute blast.
The men in suits who sit at big tables frowning at dollar signs don't understand the importance of that last bit. They are clearly enjoying making this, I am clearly picking up on that enjoyment, and therefore enjoying it that much more.
If I had a nickle for every pirate whose moniker started with the word "Red" in One Piece, I would have two nickels.
Which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice.
Also, if I had a nickel for every time a pirate whose moniker starts with the word "Red" lost a limb while saving a child's life, I would have two more nickels.
Which still isn't a lot, but it's weird that both those kids are in the same crew now.
