Stories

...We, the Gargoyles! · 19 pages
Lord Granitor (a gigantic stone gargoyle and father of Prince Gorgolla from Strange Tales #74) is finally able to leave Stonus Five, and go to conquer Earth. Magnor, who is among a rebel group of Gargoyles on earth that had turned on Gorgolla in the past, warns Bob O'Bryan of the coming invasion. Bob takes over the body of It, the Living Colossus to try to stop Lord Granitor but is ultimately unable to stop him from leaving with Diane as his hostage.
