Welcome back to The Rundown, our daily breakdown on comic news stories we missed from the previous day. Have a link to share? Email our team at either david@multiversitycomics.com or brian@multiversitycomics.com.
– Robert Kirkman’s getting rich! Or…richer, as it may be, as “The Walking Dead” creator is now unleashing his series “Outcast” with artist Paul Azaceta as a TV series on Cinemax. But we knew they were making it, it’s just officially being ordered to series, meaning that business is happening, son. With a cast that includes Patrick Fugit and Reg E. Cathey in the cast and Adam Wingard (“The Guest”) directing the pilot, it looks very promising, and the comic is pretty damn good too.
– IDW is opening new offices in San Diego, including a new comic art gallery filled with incredible comic art in hopes to engage and educate people on the powers of sequential art, which sounds super damn awesome to me.
– Comics Should Be Good shares their favorite Easter Eggs from John Layman and Rob Guillory’s “Chew”, and I always love seeing sites celebrating that book.
– DC/Vertigo is publishing two “Mad Max: Fury Road” tie-in series, with George Miller writing one of them. That’s notable because he’s the director of the film, and the original ones as well. Pretty damn rad.
