As The Hollywood Reporter points out, “comic book adaptations remain in high demand across broadcast, cable, and streaming services” thanks to the success of the CW’s DC Comics shows, AMC’s The Walking Dead, and Netflix’s Jessica Jones, just to name one example from each of the 3 small screen delivery formats. Rucka has another Image comic, Lazarus in development (see “Geek TV News Round-Up”) with Legendary, and his Eisner Award-winning Queen and Country series from Oni is still set up at Fox for the big screen with Ellen Page set to star (see “Queen and Country Movie”).
