IDW Entertainment and Entertainment One Television (eOne) announced the first TV series to be developed under their recent partnership agreement (see "IDW Signs 'First Look' Deal with eOne") will be an adaptation of Jonathan Maberry’s V-Wars comics. 
 
The pilot will be written by Emmy Award nominee Tim Schlattmann (Dexter, Smallville), who will also serve as an executive producer on the series.  IDW Entertainment’s Ted Adams and David Ozer, eOne Television ‘s John Morayniss and Benedict Carver, and Circle of Confusion’s David Alpert and Rick Jacobs will also executive produce. 
 
IDW Publishing has been developing an ongoing comic series based on the New York Times best-selling prose series, which debuted on Free Comic Book Day (see "'V-Wars' Comics").  In describing the property, Maberry  said "V-Wars is a head-on collision of real-world science, terrorism, special forces action, ethics, politics and an exploration of what defines us as human."
