Jay Gunn’s book, Surface Tension, has been optioned for TV according to Will O’Mullane Titan Comics Press Officer. Surface Tension is the story about a small UK town besieged by strange aquatic creatures.
From the Press Release:
We’re so happy to announce that Jay Gunn’s Surface Tension series (published March 2016) has been optioned for TV!
Surface Tension, a delirious mix of Hayao Miyasaki and The Walking Dead, is rich in unforgettable characters, vivid images and heartfelt emotion. I have included the official synopsis for the comic book below:
Months ago, 99% of humanity walked into the sea and dissolved. When two people are washed up on the beach of the tiny island of Breith – their biology completely rewritten – the survivors of Breith are thrown into chaos. Are they our last hope – or our executioners?
Copies of Surface Tension are available at Mycomicshop. The Subscription Cover for #1 is available at TFAW for below cover. Copies of Surface Tension are available on eBay, a few sets and some trade paper backs make up the 14 current listings. The one to get, and you can find it cheap still, is the Black and White Incentive.
I like how you conveniently have a set avail for purchase. Lol you are cracking me up my friend.
I do. But also would be happy to forward you the email from Titan with the press release. Never said I do not sell and usually I sell after the story goes up.
I’m just giving you a hard time. I would totally do the same given the platform. It’s not like you haven’t also given the cheapest options currently.
Cody. It’s all good and I deserve to be called out on it. Lol. I rarely sell things off the bat but was like I know I have this bits a legit piece straight from Titans Pr.
Found one not on ebay coverA $3 + $4 shipping ? Hate when my shipping is more then my total. In other news casting call for X-23 went out today if your daughter is 11-14 you have a shot of getting her the X-23 role.
The bigger news with optioned books is Scarlet by Brian Michael Bendis and Alex Maleev.
The basic and 1:50 have disappeared online.
I am on the road but will look into it when I get back.
There’s a couple hundred Scarlet available at books Msrp on Amazon. Those will have to dissapear first.
I’m not seeing them at Msrp… Can you send a link? Cheapest I see is 15$ with free shipping with Amazon prime.
Those books on Amazon are exactly that, books. The comic vanished well before news spread. 😉 Trades and HC’s aren’t the way to go, imo. At least not for speculating.
Jay Gunn, not James Gunn
Typo and good catch thank you.
I never heard of it and was excited thinking that Gunn wrote a comic. Sure it would’ve been amazing!
It would have been. Lol I do a lot of stuff from my iPhone and sometimes don’t double check it got by until you said something.
I read this when it was coming out. I loved it. Hopefully it actually gets made.
Yeah I picked it up and enjoyed it as well. It was very surreal. Could easily translate over.
