Dead Day Goes from Comics to Television

Dead Day, published by AfterShock, is going straight-to-series on Peacock. The comic was by writer/creator Ryan Parrott, art by Evgeniy Bornyakov, color by Juancho!, and lettering by Charles Pritchett.

Dead Day follows various story threads all revolving around the annual “dead day” when for one night, the dead come back to complete unfinished business. That could be a reason to celebrate or torment the living. The comic ran for five issues with a second volume coming.

Julie Plec and Kevin Williamson will serve as co-showrunners, writers, and executive producers.
