Dragonproof Is a Perfect Fusion of Gargoyles and Buffy the Vampire Slayer
Check out an exclusive preview of Dragonproof, a new fantasy graphic novel perfect for fans of Gargoyles, Buffy, and Fourth Wing.
A new fantasy graphic novel called Dragonproof is currently in development, blending elements from iconic 90s TV shows like Gargoyles and Buffy the Vampire Slayer. IGN has secured an exclusive preview of the 96-page tome. Created by writer Eric Palicki (Black's Myth) and artist Giulia Lalli (Eight Limbs), Dragonproof boasts covers designed by Tango and Lalli respectively.
The story unfolds in the Pacific Northwest, where protagonist Ashleigh Cole finds a wounded dragon during a camping trip. As she heals from this encounter, Ash begins to exhibit dragon-like traits herself. Guided by mysterious voices, she embarks on a quest to liberate other dragons, who are being held captive by a shadowy government agency seeking to weaponize them.
Described as funny, heartfelt, and action-packed, Dragonproof aims to resonate with readers who loved Buffy and Gargoyles, while also appealing to post-Young Adult audiences who enjoyed series like The Fourth Wing and ACOTAR. Palicki expressed that at its core, the book is about outsiders discovering their community and purpose.
The graphic novel's crowdfunding campaign has already begun, offering fans a way to support its completion.
